Hey !

Today: 3 lessons from Netflix, tactics for cleaning up your mental mess and improving as a leader.

A.rticle

Netflix has become one of the most valuable companies.

Now you can learn three important lessons from their success:

1. Big data is powerful, but big data plus big ideas is transformational.

2. If you aim to disrupt an industry, you must be willing to disrupt yourself.

3. Strategy is culture, culture is strategy.

If you are using summer time to clean up your mind and set up priorities, like I do, you may want to read “Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less” by Greg McKeown.

Tim Ferriss invited the author to read the first two chapters in his new podcast: “How to Say “No” Gracefully and Uncommit”.

C.oncept

We tend to say that people never change or it that it takes ages to happen.

I have recently witnessed how a leader can change his deep-rooted models of thinking and communication in 3 months.

How did it happen?

1. He felt stuck and frustrated with the lack of progress in his business.

2. He hired my team to review his business, interview his team and pinpoint the weak spots.

3. He publicly admitted to his weaknesses and committed to change.

4. He started listening more carefully to his team.

If your company is stuck, the answer to the problem is in you.

Have a great weekend!

Greg
