Reed Hastings, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Netflix Inc., speaks during a Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) panel discussion in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 18, 2013.
Be A Moving Target
Netflix has continued to innovate ever since upending the video rental market in 1997. And while being a moving target keeps the company a step ahead of the competition, it also helps Reed Hastings better connect with his staff. Hastings has no office at Netflix headquarters. Instead, he roams around the company, pitching in where needed. But when he does need a moment alone, he steals away to the roof, where a glass conference room offers privacy as well as a great view of the Santa Cruz Mountains.
