And now I'm going to do that.
You know, I saw this line from Elon Musk that I loved.
It was basically like the line was something like, as a leader of a company, your job is basically to see through the continuous compounding lies in the business and find the truth.
And I think what he meant is like, you have all these reports coming up to you.
that are a representation of what people want you to know and also what they think.
And neither of those things may be total truth.
And I could only imagine at a company as big as the ones that you've been at, how real that is.
Like as a leader, how do you find the truth in your business units?
And how do you figure out where the series of like compounding lies is if you even agree with this sentiment?
Is it just easier to bury things in slides because of the graphic nature as opposed to in a brief, all text is sort of equalized?
It's really good.
It's actually, we did steal, I mean, everybody steals everything from Amazon, but we did steal this.
Our leadership meetings were becoming really circular and they were losing all their signal to noise.
And we were saying so many things, but really transferring very little knowledge.
And so we started with a leadership brief.
We only take 10 minutes to read it.
So maybe we could expand upon that.
But what happens after that?
I don't think a lot of people talk about, we all have talked about the Amazon brief, but then who controls what happens next?
And are there different people in the room that have different roles in the meeting?
