Now I have three dogs and a husband. It is a collaborative, cooperative team style. We really are team-oriented. We don't tolerate bullies. It is about hiring people and putting them together.
People have a lot of autonomy and responsibility.
My personal style is to embrace that, but I'm also very, very direct. For some people that's scary. But once people get used to it, they tend to like it. The other thing is that when people join the company they say they've never seen a company with such a lack of ego. We try to objectively solve problems, not rest on laurels or past success.
