Reed Hastings built Netflix from a scrappy startup to a streaming titan. "No Rules Rules" reveals the unorthodox management principles that fueled Netflix's success: radical transparency, high-talent density, and a 'keeper test' that lets go of underperformers. Hastings upends traditional business wisdom, showing how embracing chaos and avoiding bureaucracy can unleash innovation. As Netflix faces new rivals, Hastings' leadership philosophy faces its biggest challenge yet - and the future of entertainment hangs in the balance.
