“If you give employees more freedom instead of developing processes to prevent them from exercising their own judgment, they will make better decisions and it’s easier to hold them accountable.”
Reed Hastings, No Rules Rules: Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention

Johann Hari
“The average office worker now spends 40 percent of their work time wrongly believing they are "multitasking"--which means they are incurring all these costs for their attention and focus. In fact, uninterrupted time is becoming rare. One study found that most of us working in offices never get a whole hour uninterrupted in a normal day.”
Johann Hari, Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention— and How to Think Deeply Again

Johann Hari
“The truth is that you are living in a system that is pouring acid on your attention every day, and then you are being told to blame yourself and to fiddle with your own habits while the world’s attention burns.”
Johann Hari, Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention—and How to Think Deeply Again

“Humility is important in a leader and role model. When you succeed, speak about it softly or let others mention it for you. But when you make a mistake say it clearly and loudly, so that everyone can learn and profit from your errors. In other words, “Whisper wins and shout mistakes.”
Reed Hastings, No Rules Rules: Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention

“it made our workforce smarter. When you give low-level employees access to information that is generally reserved for high-level executives, they get more done on their own. They work faster without stopping to ask for information and approval. They make better decisions without needing input from the top.”
Reed Hastings, No Rules Rules: Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention
