What is *Move Fast and Fix Things* about?

*Move Fast and Fix Things* by Frances Frei and Anne Morriss challenges the misconception that speed and care for employees/customers are mutually exclusive. The book provides a 5-step framework for leaders to solve hard problems rapidly while strengthening organizational trust, culture, and communication, using examples from Uber and ServiceNow. It includes a one-week action plan to accelerate change without sacrificing excellence.

Who should read *Move Fast and Fix Things*?

This book is ideal for executives, entrepreneurs, and managers facing urgent organizational challenges like declining trust, cultural friction, or stalled innovation. It’s particularly valuable for leaders in fast-paced industries seeking to balance speed with sustainable growth.

Is *Move Fast and Fix Things* worth reading?

Yes—it’s a practical guide backed by real-world case studies from companies like Riot Games. The authors, renowned leadership experts and hosts of TED’s *Fixable* podcast, offer actionable strategies for immediate problem-solving while fostering long-term resilience.

What are the key takeaways from *Move Fast and Fix Things*?

1. **False trade-off**: Speed and care for stakeholders aren’t mutually exclusive 2. **5-day framework**: Identify problems (Mon), build trust (Tue), shape culture (Wed), communicate effectively (Thu), empower teams (Fri) 3. **Trust acceleration**: Rapid problem-solving strengthens organizational trust when done inclusively

How does *Move Fast and Fix Things* differ from Facebook’s “Move Fast and Break Things”?

The book reimagines Facebook’s controversial motto by emphasizing *repair* over wreckage. While acknowledging speed’s importance, Frei/Morriss prioritize fixing systemic issues (e.g., toxic cultures, operational inefficiencies) rather than accepting collateral damage.

What leadership frameworks does *Move Fast and Fix Things* introduce?

- **Problem diagnosis tools**: Techniques to identify root causes vs. symptoms - **Trust equation**: Strategies to rebuild credibility through transparency and accountability - **Narrative-building**: Methods to craft compelling change stories that align teams

Can *Move Fast and Fix Things* help with workplace culture issues?

Absolutely. The Wednesday chapter focuses on creating “cultures where everyone thrives” through inclusive decision-making and psychological safety. Case studies show how rapid interventions resolved toxic dynamics at tech firms while maintaining productivity.

How practical is the book’s one-week implementation plan?

The daily steps are designed for immediate execution: 1. Monday: Conduct a “problem audit” with stakeholders 2. Tuesday: Draft a “good enough” action plan 3. Wednesday: Engage diverse allies 4. Thursday: Develop a communication narrative 5. Friday: Launch and iterate

When Speed Meets Care: A New Leadership Paradigm

00:00

What if the very thing slowing your organization down is the belief that you must choose between moving quickly and taking care of people? This false choice has paralyzed countless leaders, creating a world where companies either race recklessly forward, leaving destruction in their wake, or inch along cautiously, missing every meaningful opportunity. The truth is far more liberating: trust doesn't slow you down-it's the very thing that allows you to accelerate sustainably. When Uber faced its existential crisis in 2017, the solution wasn't choosing between fixing its toxic culture or surviving financially. It was understanding that rebuilding trust was the fastest path to transformation. This counterintuitive insight has revolutionized how organizations from Microsoft to Starbucks approach change, proving that the companies moving fastest are those who've stopped breaking things and started fixing them.
