@harrymccracken @dickc was pretty good.
@harrymccracken @dickc Barksdale (Netscape) seems pretty witty based on his quotes. Would be great to hear first-hand if he was funny IRL.
@harrymccracken @dickc TBH a large number of successful CEOs are probably pretty funny. Especially those with a sales background.
@harrymccracken @dickc Benioff was pretty witty in large-scale improv settings when I was at @salesforce.
@harrymccracken @dickc @salesforce But he seems to have transcended normal non-bazillionaire senses of humor recently. At least on social media.
Ian Brown @igb
@harrymccracken @dickc @salesforce Despite, anecdotally, being difficult to work for, Andy Grove seems to have been pretty funny.

@harrymccracken @dickc @salesforce And Noyce seems to be one of those CEOs who maxed out on charisma points.
@harrymccracken @dickc @salesforce Anyway, intrigued to see what other funny CEO’s surface in your thread.
