      Netflix cofounder Reed Hastings unveils the unconventional culture that has propelled the company to become a leader in the entertainment industry. Netflix stands out not just for its revenue or global reach, but for its radical management principles that defy tradition. Hastings developed a set of counterintuitive practices that enable constant reinvention, emphasizing people over processes and innovation over efficiency. In this unique environment, adequate performance results in generous severance, and employees are encouraged to engage in radical candor rather than merely seeking to please their bosses. Approval is not required for actions, and the company offers top-market compensation. When these principles were first established, their implications were largely unknown, yet they have fostered unprecedented flexibility and boldness. This culture of freedom and responsibility has allowed Netflix to adapt and thrive alongside changing global demands. Hastings, along with Erin Meyer, bestselling author and influential business thinker, explores the controversial philosophies that define Netflix's success. Drawing on interviews with current and former employees and sharing untold stories from Hastings' career, this narrative reveals the fascinating journey of a company that continues to make a significant impact worldwide.

    • Whether you work in a home office or abroad, business success in our ever more globalized and virtual world requires the skills to navigate through cultural differences and decode cultures foreign to your own. Renowned expert Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain where people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together. When you have Americans who precede anything negative with three nice comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans who get straight to the point (your presentation was simply awful”); Latin Americans and Asians who are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians who think the best boss is just one of the crowdthe result can be, well, sometimes interesting, even funny, but often disastrous. Even with English as a global language, it's easy to fall into cultural traps that endanger careers and sink deals when, say, a Brazilian manager tries to fathom how his Chinese suppliers really get things done, or an American team leader tries to get a handle on the intra-team dynamics between his Russian and Indian team members. In The Culture Map, Erin Meyer provides a field-tested model for decoding how cultural differences impact international business. She combines a smart analytical framework with practical, actionable advice for succeeding in a global world.
