Systems for Innovation - Adrian Cockcroft, at USI

The repot of Adrian Cockcroft's talk is available on our blog : http://bit.ly/1LH7oaP Information and subscription on http://www.usievents.com Before joining Battery, Adrian helped lead Netflix’s migration to a large scale, highly available public-cloud architecture and the open sourcing of the cloud-native NetflixOSS platform. Many companies say they would like to be more innovative, but their processes prevent innovation from happening and their best employees get frustrated and leave. What would it look like if your company culture gave employees freedom and responsibility, systematically created high talent density, and wasn’t afraid of trying new ideas? In 2011 Netflix’s CEO Reed Hastings published “The Netflix Culture Deck”, which has influenced many other companies from Nordstrom to Facebook, whose COO Sheryl Sandberg said it "may well be the most important document ever to come out of the Valley.” This presentation will give an insider’s view of the principles, systems and feedback loops that made Netflix successful, and show how they can be applied to your own organization, whether it’s a startup or an established enterprise.

Summary of freedom & responsibility: 

  • As we grow, minimize rules
  • Inhibit chaos with ever more high performance people
  • Flexibility is more important than efficiency in the long term
