Patty McCord, former Chief Talent Officer at Netflix and author of "Powerful: Building a Culture of Freedom and Responsibility", discusses her time at Netflix and why certain principles make the company successful.
McCord discusses her distaste for the word "empower" in the workplace, noting that employees already have power. Executives just need to give it to them.
