If you think Netflix is the first company to do this either you are very young and/or very inexperienced. Wharton was founded in the 19th century and Harvard has been granting MBAs since 1908. Corporate-Speak followed not much later.
- jacobr1 5y agoSure, many of these ideas have been floating around for a while. That said, I stand by the claim that you can draw a causal line from the publishing of the Netflix culture deck and the widespread adoption of "Unlimited PTO" for example. NF wasn't the first, for sure, but their deck gained mindshare with a generation of SV executives and implemented the idea at their companies. Similarly, I'd posit Spotify and Valve had as similar impact as major points of reference. That doesn't mean Drucker doesn't exist, but they are part of the cannon of SV company building Lore.
