How to build culture by a founder (me) whose company has 90% engagement—80% is considered excellent.  

I will start from the beginning. 

1/ When starting a company, set the foundation. 

Whether you are a solo founder or a team, you should figure out what you stand for and do it on day one. Here is how to do it:

- Google '200 brand values Liza Furze.' This is the most comprehensive list of values on the internet. 
- Spend 10 minutes with music on, working individually to choose every value that you align with. Go fast, trust your gut. You should have 20-30 values.
- Take 20 minutes and compare notes. 
- Put 10 more minutes on the clock and then score each value from 1-10, 10 being the highest. Again, move quickly so it comes from the gut.
- Add your scores, and cull until you find 3-4 (maximum 5) values that you agree on. Easy because the scoring should take care of it. 

2/ Humanize your values.

Empathy, communication, speed, etc. Humans don't connect with words; they connect with stories. So give them mini-stories. 

For us, an example is the value of integrity. So our full value is: 

'Driven by integrity. Build strong relationships with everyone you meet through honesty, integrity, and trust.' 

More life, more meaning. 

3/ Hire people who will live by these words. And hold yourself to account. 

Your first hires—and how you present yourself—will set in motion a chain of events that will form your early culture. 

If you are a dickhead, or you hire dickheads, your culture will erode before it's really even built. 

As long as this all goes well, proceed with the next step...

4/ Reset your values as a team ~2 years or 30 people in.

The same exact process as before, but in a group setting. 

Make it an event. Get a guest speaker, give the team some homework on their favorite value-driven brands. Should last around four hours total, maybe less. 

Throughout the event, make sure to have ample space to let people share why they chose what they chose. It's powerful.

Your values are not what the founders think; they are the sum total of the organization. This exercise, done right, will make people feel like they are now at *their* company. Which they are.

5/ Join every final culture call for as long as you can. 

Pitch for the first 25% of the final interview with candidates. If their eyes don't light up, or if you feel any vibes that don't align with what you stand for, do not hire. 

6/ Start every onboarding week with a 'Brand history' session. 

Tell people the entire history of the company, warts and all. Ups and downs, fun facts. Let them know there is a reason this all exists. 

And then let them know the next pages will be written by them. 

Do this and you have the foundation for a great culture. 

And remember ... culture eats strategy for breakfast.

The reason the left has been losing ground culturally is a natural pushback on the 'boy-that-cried-wolfism.'

Sydney Sweeney does a jeans ad saying she has good jeans.

And all of a sudden, she's a MAGA, white supremacist. 

Perhaps the ad was referring to the fact that she is, actually, just a beautiful woman. 

If you call someone a racist, sexist, misogynist, transphobe, every chance you get, your words lose meaning. 

There are real battles to fight right now.

We need to do better.

My friend Tyler Denk 🐝 and the team at beehiiv showed me what they are cooking for this season's winter release...

It gave me real OpenAI 'oh shit they just killed company x' vibes.

If you are building media as a creator, or leading a comms strategy through your startup, you don't want to miss this.

When you close that three cloud engineers for your client in less than two weeks.

Most brands are boring as hell. Some do well, others are strong ... and then there is PostHog.

Brand works very similarly to NPS. 

If your brand is a 1-6, your brand is a negative indicator. 7-8 it is neutral. And if it's a 9-10, people will talk about you. 

PostHog does this better than anyone in tech. 

From their designs (like this movie poster), to their hedgehogs (shoutout Lottie Coxon), to founder memes from 🦔 james hawkins. 

The company is walking pattern interrupt of the best kind. 

We should all be like PostHog.

POV: When another Fortune 500 comes to you hire their cloud engineers.

OpenAI is coming for your chats. Group messages in ChatGPT are now piloting in Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, and Taiwan.

This week I tried Cor's new Obi 2.0, the most human-like AI onboarding agent on the market, and it was wild. 

It's as if you have a friendly human walking you though every step.

Indistinguishable. It's wild.

With Obi 2.0, we are introducing AI video calls to help you:

1/ Deploy Obi anywhere with just a link
2/ Engage users across key touchpoints throughout their lifecycle
3/ Fully replicate human-led training calls at any scale
4/ Get detailed visual feedback from meeting recordings

Software companies spend about 20 percent of revenue ($300 to $400 billion dollars) on R&D, but roughly 80 percent of software features are rarely or never used. 

This changes today.

If you sit somewhere in the cultural and political middle, there are only two podcasts you need to listen to in order to be fairly well-informed. 

Centre left Ezra Klein, and moderate right Ross Douthat.

Ezra's recent topics include: 

Fuentes and the Groypers.
Trump's rural power base.
AI apocalypse. 
The new paramilitary force. 
MAHA's strange influence.

Ross, on the other hand: 

Machines are harming us. 
Liberal feminism.
What Palantir sees. 
Theocracy in the U.S. 
Hasan Piker.
Trump v academia.
Peter Thiel, the Antichrist, and more.

As a liberal, I align more with Ezra's views, but man, does Ross find some fascinating guests. 

The New York Times is literally crushing it with these two.

Larger and larger companies are coming to us to help build out their Brazil strategy at the moment.

Ray Kurzweil created this slide in the year 2000. 

How do you think we are tracking?

Ahead, on track, behind?
