When a company experiences rapid growth, growing pains are inevitable. Original employees find themselves in a sea of new employees. The way things are done shifts. The culture evolves.
So what can a company do to ease its growing pains? One of the more creative approaches I’ve heard is at Neo4j where employees adopted a company-wide mentality of radical candor.
Two key highlights from this interview with Kristin Thornby the CPO of Neo4j, include:
1. 3 key ways Kristin and her team decode culture at Neo4j
- Practicing radical candor in weekly conversations
- Team feedback sessions
- Town halls that begin with the caveat "Anything you ask, we will answer."
2. The 3 key characteristics that create a culture of "Sweet Swedish roots and Silicon Valley growth."
- a strong sense of alignment around building
- being highly people focused
- giving leeway to take risks
Hope you enjoy...
