Invention comes in many forms and

Invent and
Simplify
Leaders expect and require innovation
and invention from their teams and
always find ways to simplify.
They are externally aware, look for new
ideas from everywhere, and are not
limited by “not invented here”.
As we do new things, we accept that we
may be misunderstood for long periods
of time.

Is it a one-way or
a two-way door?
“…most decision should probably
be made with somewhere around
70% of the information you wish
you had.
If you wait for 90%, in most cases,
you’re probably being slow.”
– Letter to Shareholders, April 12, 2017

Working backwards
is a process
Use it to get clarity, not to document
what you’ve already decided to do
