Netflix Meeting Etiquette
- Hold weekly all‑hands meetings in open spaces; distribute copies of the profit‑and‑loss statement and review weekly metrics such as shipments, revenue and customer fulfillment.
- Share strategic documents openly with employees and post them in common areas to promote transparency.
- Schedule meetings in employees’ workspaces or take walking meetings to encourage openness and reduce hierarchy; avoid closed offices and locks to symbolise trust.
- Practice “sunshining”: leaders openly share information—both positive and negative—and encourage employees to do the same.
- Encourage employees to speak candidly, challenge managers and offer feedback; do not seek to please the boss but focus on what is best for the company.
- Adopt dispersed decision‑making: employees can implement ideas even if the manager disagrees, provided they have good judgment and the idea benefits the company.
