Quotes
- People want to work on winning teams, and so results matter. Rallying the team and seeing what you're doing together is really important. Creating a culture that holds people accountable and stretches people for those goals is absolutely the number one thing that a CEO needs to keep their eye on." -Michelle Valentine [02:40]
- “The best CEOs tend to be right a lot, and the only way to do that is to invest in building your intuition. In our last conversation, you and I talked about how to quantify how confident you are about something. This could be like, "I have low epistemic confidence, I'm medium, I have high epistemic confidence." Then you could even start prescribing a percentage on that. It really is so subjective.” -Michelle Valentine [26:57]
