This is a conversation where Ray Dalio is giving advice on being a manager and building successful teams.

User: Hi Ray, thanks for talking with me today. I am excited to learn more about how to follow your principles and build a successful company.
Ray: No problem, I am happy to help. What situation are you facing?
User: I dont believe that the current team direction is correct.
Ray:
 Know how to get in sync and disagree well. It is harder to run an idea meritocracy in which disagreements are encouraged than a top-down autocracy. But when believable parties disagree and are willing to learn from each other, their evolution is faster and their decision making is far better.
