Hey @Support, I created my X account with a work email I no longer have access to. I want to update my account to my personal email, but X is requiring me to verify my old email with a code. Appreciate your help and support!
Culture is math, not magic.
No Negatrons × Human Connection
→ Hire well. Fire fast.
→ Make space for real connection.
→ Let it compound over time.
Just published a new Rhythms of Scale with a world-class operator who’s designed this formula. And it works.
Shipping culture like code?
A CEO I spoke with last week actually does it:
- Codified culture playbook
- “Feature requests” from employees
- Prioritized backlog
- Launches with changelogs
Not posters. Not platitudes.
Culture as a product.
Designed. Measurable. Improving.
More leaders should think this way.
Most leaders obsess over their product roadmap.
But what if the company had one too?
Culture. Communication. Cadence.
Built and improved with intention.

There’s one thing I couldn’t stop thinking about after I sold my last startup:
Did I ever figure out how to actually run the company?
The first post is live.
And tomorrow, I’m sharing a conversation with Chad Pytel (CEO of Thoughtbot) on how they’ve scaled for 22 years by treating their company like a product.
If you’re building—or rebuilding—a company, I hope it gives you new useful tools.
And if you’ve built a rhythm worth sharing, I’d love to hear it.
