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. She digs into the intentionally high turnaround rate at Netflix and why a culture like that is okay. She talks women in the workplace and why equal pay is something that needs to be addressed at this point in time.
