#21 - Treating People Like Adults: Trust, Autonomy, and Transparency in the Workplace | Josh Clemente, Tom Griffin & Hui Lu

In this episode, Tom Griffin, Hui Lu, and Josh Clemente discuss the importance of treating people like adults as a cultural value. They define this as trusting employees' judgment and allowing them to navigate their work independently without paternalistic oversight. Trust and transparency build strong relationships, while autonomy allows employees to manage their time and work output. Balancing guidance and discretion is key to not being too rigid in policies. The team also discusses scenarios where treating people like adults is tested, such as expense policies and leadership changes.
