Daily Productive Sharing 983 - 3 Questions for Netflix Co-Founder

One helpful tip per day:)

If you had the chance to ask Netflix's founder some questions, what would you ask? Collaborative Fund posed three questions to Marc Randolph:

  1. What aren’t people talking about enough?
  2. What have you changed your mind about lately?
  3. What’s a piece of commonly accepted advice you think is wrong?

Marc provided the following responses:

  1. Even when Netflix was first starting out, he made sure to leave work at 5 PM every Tuesday to have a date night with his wife. This not only strengthened his relationship but also set an example for the entire company.
  2. Years ago, he decided to change one of his ideas each month. Now, he no longer worries about whether something is right or wrong but focuses more on the reasons behind it.
  3. Changing your mind doesn't necessarily mean switching from one extreme to another but finding a balance somewhere in between.
  4. A company's mission should be to test an idea as quickly, cheaply, and easily as possible, iterate on it, and if it doesn't work, move on to the next idea and repeat the process.
