Summary

DC is back from sabbatical, people. This is a very important day. If you listened to the episode with ET, you know that Drift’s two co-founders put sabbaticals in place for every three years instead of the typical five. Not just one time, but every three years. Which seemed like a great idea three years ago, but then DC had to be the first one to do it or else no one would… He was gone for a month, in Vermont, then L.A. And boy, does he have some stories... The three books DC recommended, all by Daniel Coyle, were The Culture Code The Talent Code The Little Book of Talent And here’s Jeff Bezos’s rubric for hiring.
