I agree but I also think it’s bigger than the ego of C-types. The fact that Microsoft calls you with updates also has a near magical impact on organisation culture in general. It’s the, “oh ok” gestalt that every employee feels, the thing that makes them consign to wait instead of being angry, and what not.
Sure there is ego, but a lot of C types are frankly good enough to work beyond that part of the equation.
I wasn't necessarily talking about ego, but more about how other people in the C-suite will react differently knowing that someone's calling with updates regularly.
