When the Rule Book Became the Problem
What if the very systems designed to manage people are actually holding them back? At Netflix, this question led to something radical: eliminating vacation policies, expense approvals, and performance reviews. The result? A culture so powerful that its internal presentation went viral with 15 million views, earning praise from Sheryl Sandberg as "the most important document to come out of Silicon Valley." This wasn't reckless abandon-it was a calculated bet that adults don't need to be managed like children. When Netflix realized it would soon consume a third of U.S. internet bandwidth, traditional management wouldn't cut it. The solution wasn't more rules, but fewer. By stripping away bureaucracy, they discovered something profound: people walk through the door with power already inside them. The question isn't how to empower them-it's how to stop getting in their way. Think about the last time you needed three approvals to spend $50. Frustrating, right? Netflix eliminated virtually all approval processes, telling employees to simply "act in Netflix's best interest." No vacation policy-take what you need. No travel restrictions-spend company money like it's your own. No annual budgets-they're outdated within months anyway. This wasn't chaos disguised as freedom. The flip side was radical responsibility. Everyone was expected to practice brutal honesty, engage in fact-based debate, and check their ego at the door. When Netflix cut middle management layers after a painful 2001 layoff, something unexpected happened: everything moved faster. Teams became more proactive. Innovation flourished. Ted Sarandos doubled content production yearly while earning critical acclaim by giving creators freedom without micromanagement. The most powerful motivation isn't bonuses or perks-it's the chance to do meaningful work alongside brilliant colleagues. Freedom without responsibility is anarchy. Responsibility without freedom is prison. Netflix found the sweet spot between them, proving that when you treat people like adults, they rise to meet that expectation.
