Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Hard work is irrelevant. Be radically honest. Adequate performance gets a generous severance. And never, ever try to please your boss.
These are some of the ground rules if you work at Netflix. They are part of a unique cultural experiment that explains how the company has transformed itself at lightning speed from a DVD mail order service into a streaming superpower - with 125 million fervent subscribers and a market capitalisation bigger than Disney.
Finally Reed Hastings, Netflix Chairman and CEO, is sharing the secrets that have revolutionised the entertainment and tech industries. With INSEAD business school professor Erin Meyer, he will explore his leadership philosophy - which begins by rejecting the accepted beliefs under which most companies operate - and how it plays out in practice at Netflix.
From unlimited holidays to abolishing financial approvals, Netflix offers a fundamentally different way to run any organisation, one far more in tune with a fast-paced world. For anyone interested in creativity, productivity and innovation, the Netflix culture is something close to a holy grail. This book will make it, and its creator, fully accessible for the first time.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good insight into Netflix’s success
Got better as the book went on as it gives a good insight into Netflix’s unique culture and how that can be balanced in another environment

I felt inspired
I really enjoyed this book. It has helped me review my management style and made me rethink a few of my view points. NZ employment law limits what can be implemented around performance management but the points made are worth discussing within a management team.

Interesting Read
Not a bad book for a look into different management styles. More a management book than a founder story.
The book highlights perhaps why you’d want to work at netflix and why owning any shares in the company is probably a bad idea. Highlights the lack of cost control that you can just see will become pervasive in the company if it continues on this path - clearly the right strategy in the 2010s when revenue growth at any cost was rewarded.

Good audiobook and surprisingly balanced
I am always sceptical of books about founders but it was good to hear the way they gave examples of when things didn't work and how they addressed it (rather than just hero worshipping).
If you are in a firm with a deeply embedded culture then this is not going to give you any quick fixes but an insightful read (or listen) that shows there are better ways for an organisation to function.

An aspirational organisational model that benefits all readers to learn from
A must read tale for organisations of all sizes. The Netflix way is fundamentally built on the premise of letting smart people do what’s right by their organisation and supporting them to speak and act accordingly… in sometimes astounding ways!
