I like coming to work every day with people who also like coming to work every day. We don't have "managers" -- everyone is self-directed but is introspective and open-minded enough to take input from others and make the right choices. If we're not sure what to do, we agree on "try and measure," and there's no penalties if something doesn't work out. It means everyone is free to do what they think is right, yet we can still be honest with each other. Honesty, transparency, participation.
