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.

One of the best business/management books out there

Innovative approach not only to one of the key challenges of today’s business world - culture, but also to management in general. This book provides a perfect mix of storytelling, research and frameworks - something rare in business books.

Very insightful

Truly remade me think of current processes and highlighted everything I hate about office job settings and tossed it out the window

Read this book!

One of my favorite business/management books that is so much more than just about management. I've read a lot of books on management and this is one of the best. Highly recomended.

Good read

This book explains how Netflix reinvented the entire entertainment industry, explains the amazing thing they practiced at Netflix.

Good book for learning different leadership practices!

Great insight into a high performing organization

Are you working in a creative sector where innovation is more important than error prevention? Netflix's operating model shows how an organization can flourish building a high density workforce and distributed decision making at scale using context over rules. This book challenge many traditional ways of running a company from fluff to substance. Not easy to implement but something we believe can be truly game changing but very far from easy.

Exceptional

Engaging narrative and cohesive history that makes you want to understand this way of thinking and living... At the end... Is all relative and rules should be used to add value to the expected outcome.

A Breath of Fresh Air

A different and fresh perspective on how to get the best collaboration in businesses that require creativity.

Filled with a lot of Knowledge

I loved the structure of the book and the practical examples they provide. The book is easy to understand and takes you on a journey that is easy to follow along and can make a big difference in your company.

Boring and repetitive

The book dragged on for hours, for what could be summarized in a 15 min youtube video, or shorter. The writing wasn't even entertaining, to endure the length.
