Here are a few key takeaways from the interview:

1. It's easy to copy the Spotify model

We all know about squads, tribes, guilds and so on, but that's just scratching the surface. You need the soul of the model.

2. Management is the soul

You need to change your approach to management to make the Spotify model work.

3. Empowerment and trust

This is what management needs to provide its teams. Give your teams ownership of their work, and both your customers and your employees will be grateful. The former for a great product, the latter for a great workplace.

4. Sounds good! How do I make it happen?

Servant leadership is key to this, but there is so much to it, I really can't get into the details here.
