We asked ElevenLabs CEO Mati Staniszewski what people should take away from the story of ElevenLabs. "One is culture." "We obsess about bringing people that are aligned with how we want to operate day to day, whether it's the ownership, whether it's the first principles, whether it's that striving...

Steve Jobs on why the best CEOs work *for* their employees: At a company full of world-class talent, Steve explains, the traditional org chart gets turned upside down. "Where you've got incredibly talented people that are also rare and in demand, if you don't treat them right, they can go get another job in 10 minutes." That reality changes everything about how leadership works: "So, this strange thing happens, which is that the hierarchy of power inverts and the CEO is actually at the bottom. So, I sort of feel like I work for most of these people because they're the ones that are doing all the brilliant work." In Steve's view, management isn't about directing the work. It's about enabling the people doing it: "The best people are very hard to come by and so it's management's job to support them because they're on the front lines doing the work." He explains how that support actually shows up day to day: "We do that by creating the right environments and a very rich environment and removing obstacles out of their way and putting together the right teams of people together and getting the right projects, keeping the quality levels very high both in terms of people and strategy and projects." The takeaway: when your people are the rarest resource in the company, your job as a leader is to clear the path in front of them.

ElevenLabs CEO Mati Staniszewski says that research is a head start and product ecosystem creates a moat: “The way we think about it, research is head start.” “We can give advantage to the customer earlier. And it's 6-12 month of advantage.” “You have research, product in parallel that extends that, but the thing that will really give that long-term value is the ecosystem that you create around, whether that's the brand and distribution, whether that's the collection of voices you can have, the collection of integrations you can build, the workflows that you can build.” Source: ElevenLabs CEO Mati Staniszewski on No Priors with sarah guo and Elad Gil

"The world was built by people that are not much smarter than you." Replit CEO Amjad Masad on why old career advice no longer maps to reality: "There are a lot of rules that are accidental, that are there for historical reasons." "Your job is to find the path to the future. Find the way of doing things that's most aligned with where the world is headed." "It's not about cheating, it's about figuring out how the system is rigged against you. How do you actually hack it? How do you get past it?" "AI is a great tool for that." "If you're someone who just understands how these tools work, and understand how you have an amazing time advantage. You can do things a lot faster." "There are a lot of programmers that are still doing programming the old way, and they're going very, very slow... until they get obsoleted." Amjad Masad with jack neel

NVIDIA founder Jensen Huang: "We never talk about market share” “We never talk about market share in our company… Why are you fighting people for market share? The whole concept of market share says there’s a whole bunch of other people doing the same thing. And if they’re doing the same thing, why are we doing it? Why am I squandering the lives of these incredibly talented people to do something that has already been done?” Instead Jensen believes in building your company around “doing something that has never been done before.” Sometimes this means walking away from commodity work: “That demonstrates very clearly to your employees that we’re not going to do commodity work. The combination of choosing the right work and walking away from the wrong work is the best way to create the conditions [for employees to do their life’s work.]” Video source: Sana (2023)

If you think this current wave is solely about Sifuna, you are wrong. It's not about Sifuna. It's about the principles and ideals that the person in Sifuna stands for. It's about issues that Kenyans consider pertinent and close to their hearts. It's about the need for a Renaissance. It's about hunger for good governance, social justice, constitutionalism, dignity, rule of law, democracy, and "WE THE PEOPLE" #MimiNdioSifuna is not a mere political chant. It's a communication from the people of Kenya that there's a Kenya they so desire, and it can't be achieved through the current political establishment. Kenyans are intimating to the whole world that they now more ready than ever to embrace Nationalism and unity against autocratic and repressive regimes their diversity notwithstanding. It is a sign that change is indeed nigh. Kenyans from all walks of life are stamping authority and saying in one accord that "All sovereign power belongs to the people..." This is what it's about. CHANGE. Join the caravan and fight for something. Fight for you, your child(ren), our generation, and future generations. When the cause is just, Conquer we must. #RutoMustGo

AWFL climate doomers, hoping to shake their reputation as joyless scolds, are trying to bring "joy" to their doomsaying Spoiler alert: It's a huge cringe-fest. "If we don't center joy now, here in the process of bringing about this more vibrant, livable future, I think we actually pattern ourselves into something that isn't what we want." "The message of 'we have to fix the climate' doesn't resonate. It's more about: how do we love each other, how do we come to this place of well-being, how do we care about the well-being of ourselves, of our community, and our environment. And I think that that is joyful... There is love in this process." "If we want people to come off the sidelines and into the work, it's gotta feel good in some way. It can't be just about finger-wagging and telling people what they've done wrong if they want to be good and right and better. We have to have more openness. We have to throw a better party."

Marc Andreessen posted that "High IQ experts work for mid IQ generalists." We asked him to elaborate. "So I think two things are true: One is we all underrate the importance of intelligence." "Even just the very idea that some people are smarter than other people just really freaks people out, and people don't like to talk about it. And we really struggle with that as a society." "On the other hand, the people who are in the fields that involve intelligence probably overrate intelligence. And you might even coin a term like maybe 'intelligence supremacist' or something like that." Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 Erik Torenberg

The people that are getting destroyed by Hollywood leaving Los Angeles are the sound people, the lighting people, craft and service, all the work and all these families, they're the ones that are suffering. What the city doesn't understand is we need to have no fees. It's time to bring this business back. We need everyone to be able to work. The money will come from people being able to stay here, people going and getting to go food for the set. There's tons of money in the trickle down.

Valar Atomics CEO Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors says he doesn't need a technical edge to win. "We want this reactor to be as simple as possible. If we could just staple this thing together from Ikea, then this would be a trillion-dollar company much faster." "There are two philosophies that we use in building the reactors. We either try to buy things that are completely off the shelf or we make it ourselves." "We're trying to go 100x faster than the nuclear industry has ever gone before. So if we're plugging too deeply into the existing network, it's not going to work that well. We want to use off-the-shelf things and make things ourselves when we can't buy something off the shelf." "The nuclear industry is full of very smart people. It's full of physics people, PhDs, and people who have spent their life doing complex analysis, and they actually want something that is a little bit complicated. It's an ego thing to design something that is complicated and looks very sophisticated... It's our preference that [our reactors] are so simple that somebody with a nuclear PhD looks at it and says, 'That's like a toy,' and it's great because people make toys in the millions."

Tim Cook reveals a surprising truth about hiring at the world's biggest tech company: You don't need to know how to code to work at Apple. "We hire people from all walks of life and people that have college degrees, people that don't. People that code, people that don't." Tim is a vocal advocate for learning to code, but not because it's a prerequisite for getting hired. He sees it as something far broader: "I do recommend coding for everyone to learn because I think it's a form of expressing yourself and it's a global language and it's the only global language that we all share is coding." So if coding isn't the golden ticket, what is? Tim explains that the traits he values most have nothing to do with technical credentials. There are three that matter above all else. The first is collaboration. Not just the willingness to work with others, but a deep, genuine belief that teams produce better outcomes than individuals ever could: "Can they really collaborate? Do they deeply believe that one plus one equals three?" The second is curiosity. Tim Cook gravitates toward people who are relentless in their need to understand, people who never stop probing how the world works and why people think the way they do: "I think curiosity is a trait that I love about people, about people that ask questions that are so curious about how things work, how people think. All of the why and how questions." The third is creativity. This is where everything comes together. Apple's entire model depends on anticipating needs that consumers haven't even recognised yet: "We're looking for people that can see around the corner because ultimately we want to create products that people can't live without, but they didn't know they needed." Collaboration. Curiosity. Creativity. None of them show up on a résumé, and none of them require a degree. But according to Tim Cook, they're exactly what makes a great team player at Apple.

Ben Horowitz: “To be a good CEO people have to want to work for you” “What's the fundamental thing that you have to be able to do in order to be CEO? People have to want to work for you. That's it. Because if nobody wants to work for you… you can't actually do anything.” Ben urges founders to consider the reasons people actually want to work for a person: “Do they have good vision? Do they care about my interests and not just theirs? Are they somebody that I can get behind? These are the questions people ask of themselves.” He points out that TV generally portrays CEOs as ruthless, but that’s actually the opposite of what you want to do because nobody wants to work for a person like that.

Lane Kiffin on the return of Will Wade to LSU: "If you're passionate about a place and you're a really good coach, that's a really good combination. I know there's a lot of judgement about whether he should go and he just got there. Everything is everybody's story. You got one life to live. What they want to choose to do, and believe what their story is after they get the best information they can from the people that are closest to them, and they make their decisions. In my opinion, it's that person's job to prove that decision right. It does speak volumes of LSU. There's somebody that understands everything about LSU, understands the power of LSU. Went through a very unique situation, a break up. Then makes the decision to come back. To me, that says a lot about LSU."

What absolute nonsense. Don't most people want to work hard to do better by their own families? To have a better house, better holidays, better furniture? Isn't that a worthwhile thing? Wouldn't life be very much better if more people took responsibility for their families and for building their own future? And when they do that, and have a little bit left over to help people less fortunate than themselves—isn't that a good thing? And aren't we trying to get the Third World out of the poverty it's in by building up its industries and having some investment to go and help them with? John Wesley answered the question you just put: 'Do not impute to money the faults of human nature.' It's not the money, it's not the wealth you create; it's what you do with it. Many people use their money to do more for the arts, to see more, to enjoy more of the great artistic works. Look at the fantastic voluntary effort in this country. It's enormous. Greed? Isn't it absurd! Trade unions mostly argue for higher wages. They argue for bigger differentials. Some people are greedy. But people who want a better standard of living and better way of life for their children are not. They're highly moral. They're highly valued citizens and they're usually those people who look after their houses, their families and they look after their neighbourhoods—community spirit. This is the real 'Thatcherism'.
