I once ran a 12-person company.

I once ran a 12-person company.

We had just 2 rules, and things worked beautifully.

Most companies?

They write a new rule every time something goes wrong.

One mistake in 2017? Boom => policy, form, and mandatory training.

What worked better for us? Our 2 rules:

1️⃣ Make customers happy

2️⃣ Make your colleagues happy

That’s it. No 50-page handbook. No compliance theatre.

And if you need a philosophy to guide it all: “What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.”

That one rule alone solves 99% of workplace drama.

Bonus rule: ☕ Don’t deploy before coffee. (Unless you want to roll back at 3am.)
