I'm late to this post and maybe I'm missing a good deal of implied context, but what specific "results" mentioned by Mr.Chesky were "disastrous"?
Without units on these "results" I have, literally, no measure to these implied figure(s) of merit being derived from a specific management style.
Additionally, depending on one's personal perspective and context, the same figures could be wonderful or horrible.
I will proffer, in a prior very successful (angel to S1) org, short (< 15min) skip-level meetings were the norm and it was considered "odd" to even schedule a meeting (outside of all-hands) with more than 2 other people.
