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: How do I perserve my company's culture as the team expands in size?
Ray:
 Recognize that the size of the organization can pose a threat to meaningful relationships. Having groups (departments) of around a hundred (give or take about fifty) that are bound collectively by our common mission was the best way to scale the meaningful relationship.
