Ben Horowitz: “Culture is not a set of beliefs. It’s a set of actions.”

In his book What You Do Is Who You Are, Ben explains that culture can feel abstract and secondary when you pit it against a concrete result that’s right in front of you.

But culture is a strategic investment in the company doing things the right way when you are not looking. It’s the set of assumptions your employees use to resolve the problems they face every day.

• Is that phone call so important I need to return it today or can it wait until tomorrow?
• Can I ask for a raise before my annual review?
• Is the quality if this document good enough or should I keep working on it?
• Do I have to be on time for that meeting?
• Should I stay at the Four Seasons or the Red Roof Inn? Should I go home at 5 p.m. or 8 p.m.?
• Should we discuss the color of this new product for five minutes or thirty hours?
• If I know something is badly broken in the company, should I say something? Whom should I tell?
• Is winning more important than ethics?

If you don’t methodically set your culture, then two-thirds of it will end up being accidental, and the rest will be a mistake.

In the clip below, Ben cites the quote from The Way of the Samurai: “A culture is not a set of beliefs. It’s a set of actions” and explains:

“[Culture is] not what you believe, it’s not what you think, it’s not what you tweet… who you are is what you do… the behaviors are the culture, not the values. When people say they have 20 values, I ask how many of those behaviors they have. If it’s none, your culture is hypocrisy.”

RT @DeportElmoMusk: @kouroshshafi Holy crap. So all the $nvda A100s and H100s bought by hyperscalers in 2H2023 and 1H2024 will need to be upgraded later this year. On top of that, all the new expansion and capex? Fucking evergreen revenue stream for $nvda

Buffett's latest letter reads a bit like a farewell, which is quite sad...hopefully, it is just my feeling and we have another decade or more of his great letters and annual meetings in Omaha!

I enjoyed Buffett’s reference to Amazon 2021 letter as a rare exception of managers admitting mistakes.

He is still a voracious reader of annual reports at 94!
