5. Are you a pirate?
That thrill of your first hire, when you’ve convinced some
other crazy soul to join you in your almost certainly
doomed project. The high from raising venture capital and
starting to see your name mentioned in the press. The
excitement of launch and…gulp…customers! and the
feeling of truly learning something useful, you’re just not
sure what it is, when the company almost inevitably
crashes and burns.
- Mike Arrington, Techcrunch
13. Our mission
„Our mission is to continue to
efficiently facilitate diverse
methods of empowerment
and professionally disseminate
performance based
deliverables to meet our
customer‘s needs.“
Forget that.
14. Values are mindset,
behaviour and actions.
Stuff that is reflected in your everyday work.
It‘s about what you do, not what you say.
16. How we do it at Talential
» Revise from time to time with
the whole team (at least every
Rules of interaction time a new employee joins)
-Max. 10 rules » Have everyone participate
-Concise and specific
-Real i.e. actionable
» Have a common agreement
» Change, add, delete, whenever
the team thinks it is necessary
24. Leadership is defined
by followership
No job titles.
Employees may choose their own job titles. Whatever they
like or what fits best for the situation.
25. Better to beg for
forgiveness than to
ask for permission.
