So if you ever want to know why Mark Cuban doesn't care to know about the details and particulars of Bitcoin, and likes to make knee jerk affirmations and proclamations about it, this article tells it all about his personality and style.
https://www.cnbc.com/2017/12/01/quitting-this-common-bad-habit-made-mark-cuban-a-better-leader.htmlIt's the same exact attitude that people like Jim Cramer have.
Other people in the room are way smarter, more educated, and do the deep research. These people are detail oriented and look at things from both a micro level and a macro, long term scale.
But people like
Mark don't do the research. They don't step back and look at the bigger long term picture, and can't be bothered to. Because Narcissists are like that.
"There was a point in time when I was a yeller," Cuban says.
It was a phase in his 20s, he says. It taught him an important lesson about how his attitude could impact his success in the office.
"I wouldn't yell at employees, I would yell at my partner," he explains. "My partner at the time, Martin Woodall, and I would bat heads."
Woodall, a co-founder of Cuban's early computer systems venture MicroSolutions, had different ideas about the way the business should be run as it grew. Cuban describes Woodall as, "the most anal-retentive person I had ever met in my life," on his blog.
Cuban, on the other hand, wasn't. That led to disagreements.
"We could drive each other crazy," Cuban writes. "He would give me incredible amounts of s--- about how sloppy I was. I would give him the same amount back because he was so anal he was missing huge opportunities."
