HP, started by Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard in a garage.
(Course, rule 13 might be, make sure there’s a global conflict from which to profit… Just saying.)
The twelve rules are:
- Believe you can change the world.
- Work quickly, keep the tools unlocked, work whenever.
- Know when to work alone and when to work together.
- Share tools, ideas. Trust your colleagues.
- No Politics. No bureaucracy. (These are ridiculous in a garage).
- The customer defines a job well done.
- Radical ideas are not bad ideas.
- Invent different ways of working.
- Make a contribution every day.
- If it doesn’t contribute, it doesn’t leave the garage.
- Believe that together we can do anything.
- Invent.
