Company Culture Is Greater Than Everything

so Boehner went from 30 to 650 people in four years and from one to five offices including London and you know the way I've kept culture is dictatorship you know it's just the thing that I care about the most and so you know here's how you keep culture when Kristen in the office is upset about something and I'm on my way from Connecticut into New York to do a new business pitch potentially worth five million dollars and I detour and skip that pitch to go and talk out with her that issue that's how you maintain culture guys life's very simple there's there's the things you wish you were doing there's the things you're saying that you're doing and then there's the things that you actually do the way you maintain culture is the same answer as the question prior to this you do it in your actions I don't meet with every single employee that works for me for ten minutes three months in to check the box and seem like a personal CEO I do it because in those 10 minutes I want to create some sort of connection that makes them feel comfortable to say hi to me in the elevator or to like come with a problem to me I do it because I asked them where their hometown is so I can make a joke about the Cleveland Indians in the elevator to show them that I was paying attention I do it because I want to know if they are have siblings how they roll what interests are they in because if I want to surprise and delight them because they're crushing it that I can get them coachella tickets right I do it because it has purpose and so I maintain culture very simply dictatorship my actions and the number one and two other options are meritocracy letting talent speak for itself and then finally firing the most talented people if they're not willing to care about their teammates more than them thinking they're fancy and you know my ego is so big that I don't think I need anybody that works for my company and so thus they're all expendable if they're not willing to treat each other with respect and love
