Before we continue...

Here are our top 10 take aways from Netflix’s culture

deck

Flexibility is more important than efficiency over the long

term

1

Titles aren’t prestigious and are not a way to measure the

impact you have on the company

2

People are paid relative to their market value, not to

keep up with their co-workers

3

It’s up to you, the individual, to manage your career path - not the management team

4

The best managers spend most of their time focused on context not

control

5

Everyone should behave and make decisions like they are the owner of the company

6

Focus on the result, not the process - as long as the result is

great, who cares about the process?

7

Have a bias towards action and don’t get stuck in “analysis

paralysis” - just do it

8

Respect everyone in the company, regardless of their

status or title

9

Look to your employees to create and suggest ideas that

will drive the company forward
