No Rules Rules
Summary
Netflix cofounder Reed Hastings reveals for the first time the unorthodox culture behind one of the world's most innovative, imaginative, and successful companies. There has never before been a company like Netflix. It has led nothing short of a revolution in the entertainment industries, generating billions of dollars in annual revenue while capturing the imaginations of hundreds of millions of people in more than 190 countries. But to reach these great heights, Netflix, which launched in 1998 as an online DVD rental service, has had to reinvent itself over and over again. This type of unprecedented flexibility would have been impossible without the counterintuitive and radical management principles that cofounder Reed Hastings established from the very beginning. Hastings rejected the conventional wisdom under which other companies operate and defied tradition to instead build a culture focused on freedom and responsibility, one that has allowed Netflix to adapt and innovate as the needs of its members and the world have simultaneously transformed. Hastings set new standards, valuing people over process, emphasizing innovation over efficiency, and giving employees context, not controls. At Netflix, there are no vacation or expense policies. At Netflix, adequate performance gets a generous severance, and hard work is irrelevant. At Netflix, you don’t try to please your boss, you give candid feedback instead. At Netflix, employees don’t need approval, and the company pays top of market. When Hastings and his team first devised these unorthodox principles, the implications were unknown and untested. But in just a short period, their methods led to unparalleled speed and boldness, as Netflix quickly became one of the most loved brands in the world. Here for the first time, Hastings and Erin Meyer, best-selling author of The Culture Map and one of the world’s most influential business thinkers, dive deep into the controversial ideologies at the heart of the Netflix psyche, which have generated results that are the envy of the business world. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with current and past Netflix employees from around the globe and never-before-told stories of trial and error from Hastings’s own career, No Rules Rules is the fascinating and untold account of the philosophy behind one of the world’s most innovative, imaginative, and successful companies. *Includes a PDF containing examples of Netflix Culture Maps from the book.

Summary
Die ungekürzte Lesung zur Netflix-Unternehmenstrategie. Netflix ist eines der erfolgreichsten Unternehmen der Welt und wird für seine Innovationskraft, Flexibilität, Geschwindigkeit und seinen unternehmerischen Mut bewundert. Gibt es dahinter ein Geheimnis? Außergewöhnlich sind vor allem die Unternehmensleitlinien, die für alle Mitarbeiter der Maßstab ihrer Arbeit sind. Hier einige Beispiele: Harte Arbeit ist irrelevant. Niemand soll seinem Chef nach dem Mund reden. Jeder Mitarbeiter kann so viele Urlaubstage nehmen, wie er möchte. Netflix zahlt die besten Gehälter. Netflix will keine Angeber und Selbstdarsteller. Niemand kommt nackt zur Arbeit. Allen ist klar, dass ein gut klingendes Konzept vollkommen wertlos ist, wenn die Ideen nicht von der Leitungsebene vorgelebt werden. Aufrichtigkeit und exzellente Mitarbeiter sind für Netflix-Chef Reed Hastings die wesentlichen Schlüssel zu überdurchschnittlichen Ergebnissen. Wenn diese Voraussetzungen erfüllt sind, kann ein Unternehmen auf starre Regeln wie Arbeiten auszuführen sind und sogar auf Entscheidungshierarchien verzichten. >> Diese ungekürzte Hörbuch-Fassung genießt du exklusiv nur bei Audible.
