Episode notes

Culture is the habits of how people work together. Biggest obstacles to collaboration are the simple excuse, "This is the way we've always done it" At individual level, there's what my friend Erica called status anxiety,. This idea of how do I look in the organization? But how does this make prop me up? How does this make me look to my boss?

Dan Brown inspires us to get great at asking questions because 'the question' is one of our most invincible resources. He reminds us to maintain a spirit of collaboration with the the team members we’re struggling with since they care as much about the project as we do. He encourages us to always peer beneath the surface at the underlying structure of whatever we’re working on. He also motivates us to never settle.
