HyperSocial’s CEO is sorry for how ‘crying’ LinkedIn post was perceived, but isn’t deleting it

A candid LinkedIn post from HyperSocial CEO Braden Wallake talking about how upset he was after laying off two staffers was widely criticized by users of the platform on Wednesday. Danielle Wiley, founder and CEO of Sway Group, said on LinkedIn that while she is all for vulnerability, “selfies like this, and selfies that are meant to look sexy or feel overly posed just rub me the wrong way.”
