I think amazing people are often drawn to be around other amazing people who have lots of intellectual humility about what they don't yet know, can sort of have a sense of wonder about what's knowable out there.

you're trying to be hyper open for what kind of environment you want.

An old story that sort of comes to mind.

I think lots of good organizations, like a great way to onboard someone, particularly someone high potential, and hopefully almost all the people you're hiring are very high potential, is to write down a lot of what you do, write down a lot of your process, be true for invest like the best.

It's like, hey, here's how we have guests.

And here's how we think about questions.

And here's how we think about reach.

And here's how we think about follow-up after the podcast.

And it's all written down.

And we say, you just got here today.

We're

so excited you're here.

Plop.

Make it better.

You got a month.

Make it better.

I need a report.

I need a meeting.

I need something where you criticize what we're doing because we think it's the best we have right now and we're not at all convinced it's even an A.

Please make it better.
