Okay, so I'm having to make decisions. Well, I wanted everybody to be in it with me. By doing the videos and taping everything, so everybody could see, then they could see what's being made, and so that helped the idea of meritocracy.

You and being able to accept, in our case, being able to accept coaching, being able to accept instruction, and then taking positive action to improve. That's a big part of our culture, but the way you articulated in the book was fantastic, and it really showed a strong commitment to that. That's obvious in Bridgewater; you do a lot of that.
