b'"90% of my job is to make sure that the organization is performing at the highest possible level."\\n\\nNew work is definitely about the people. It\'s \\u2018people before paper\\u2019. But if you were to ask someone what communication tool truly represents new work, in almost all cases, people will say: Slack. We had the honour of meeting Stewart Butterfield, the co-founder and CEO of Slack. To put it in perspective, Slack is known as one of the fastest growing companies in history and one of the hottest startups of the time. With a valuation of over 5 billion US dollars, Slack is still growing with roughly 1000 people working within the organisation. \\nStewart deeply cares about the way they work at Slack and he shared with me very openly how his role as a leader has changed. Successful, yet humble. Innovative, yet down-to-earth, with a very fundamental understanding for what is important in life and work. It was definitely an interview that I enjoyed a lot, since we have many clients who use this tool and ask us for our input and advice. So for this episode, we went one step further - directly to the source: How Slack is used at Slack effectively and how they live and push \\u2018new work\\u2019 to new limits. And as Stewart hints throughout the discussion - it\'s not just about the tool.\\nHave fun with Episode 60 of the #OntheWaytonewWork Podcast via:\\nSPOTIFY spotify.onthewaytonewwork.com\\nSOUNDCLOUD soundcloud.com/onthewaytonewwork\\nAnd ITUNES itunes.onthewaytonewwork.com\\nAnd all book tips here books.onthewaytonewwork.com\\nWith Christoph Magnussen and Michael Trautmann\\n\\nShownotes:\\nCan you give us a little introduction about yourself?
