You need to figure out which defaults are killing the company and change them violently.
There must not be change management because you want the change to feel jarring.
I left home.
to fly San Francisco where Open Door had one office.
And on the way out the door, I told my wife, hey, sweetheart, I'll be back on Thursday.
And she said, do not come back until you have a plan to break the company even.
And I'm like, haha, very funny.
This is hilarious.
And my wife said, no, no, I'm not kidding.
Do not come back.
She went to Amazon and ordered a mattress to the office for me.
Like I knew I was going to sleep in the office for multiple days in a row because my plan was try to figure out what had gone wrong.
Because basically what happens is all companies fail in similar ways.
No companies succeed.
And I said, all success is unique, but all failures rhyme.
Good people leave.
People lose control of innovation.
GNA goes up.
And over time, you end up picking fights with your customers and partners.
So that had happened at Opendoor.
