Episode notes

In terms of culture, one of the things that i know that you have described your previous work place buffer as a tentple. I just thought that was a very interesting word to use, and i'm sif he could tell us more about what that means. In in one context, tent pull is almost like a marketing angle for ust, like we have at buffer. The other angle, more from a management perspective, i think of it as a tent pull,. Just from the perspective that we we care, we care a lot about it. And if you were to take that vale, the word tentpole resignates. No sempy, because if you'd take that away

For any team to work efficiently and well, ownership is important. As a leader, how do you motivate your team intrinsically?

Kevan Lee, is the VP of Marketing at Oyster, with previous experience as the VP of Marketing at Buffer and Interim Head of Marketing at Polly.

In today’s episode, Kevan shares why he uses intrinsic motivation with his team and how he offers feedback to encourage more positive behaviour.

We also talk about how parenting philosophy can be tied into management and why asking questions, rather than direct decision-making, often leads to the same conclusion but with more team growth.

Tune in to hear why Kevan uses a lighter-weight approach to decision-making and how he tries to reduce the number of stakeholders for a more efficient process.
