A short excerpt from a YouTube conversation (host: Vishen Lakhiani) with Cameron Herald (founder of the COO Alliance) about leadership in rapidly changing environments. The speakers emphasize hiring "accountable people," trusting high-performing employees to manage themselves, and valuing output over hours (e.g., being unconcerned if someone works four hours a week as long as they deliver).

Fortune magazine asked me this 20 years ago. They said, how do you hold your employees accountable? I said, I don't. I hire accountable people. The mastermind behind hundreds of companies growth. He's done it numerous times before. Founder of the COO Alliance, Cameron Herald.
Cameron Herald.
Really good people. You don't have to manage them. They manage them themselves. I don't care when they do it or how often. If they're working four hours a week right now for the money I'm paying, cool, because they're cranking it.
All I ever do is upgrade.
