BEING THE BIGGER PERSON IN EVERY SITUATION - DAILYVEE SEASON 2: PART 3 OF 6

if anybody has something that they feel they can't say here in a group setting that wants a set of time with me super available there's plenty of time get [ __ ] done I'm gonna make Monday morning my [ __ ] can solve like the world's problems if people actually spend time together like it's just I believe in it the most and like I'll tell you guys as a group right now like if we need to jump started even more for the ambition we have like anything I can do to accelerate that like well you know if anybody here knows how they bond with people and I mean things like you want me to buy you tickets to a baseball game or you want to go hiking with that person like I'm open I'm literally open to anything like I'm willing to pay 150 bucks for you know like a preview screening of like if you start getting to know the other individual and you think you guys have a common interest if there's a way for me to double up that common interest let me know actually you know what I haven't said this in a long time it's a real mistake and it's how I built favours foundation everything is predicated on being the bigger woman and man in every single situation always and then using me as the outpost I mean we can win real big and I'm willing to do it and now I've clawed to [ __ ] I can really do it like literally trying to get into a place where you're the bigger person in every situation and then having a place where you can take that poison out because you want to get it out you got to eat it is how we built Bane originally for real that's how I got the right foundation at first like just getting everybody religious about I would be the bigger person like I disagreed but I'll be the one that bends right now but then I'm gonna go punch Gary in the face or Kelly or AJ now and Claude is it's a real thing so that's another thing just to think about cuz I'm that's exactly what I want to say to them as well I mean it's insane there is no separate there should be no separate I understand physically even how big this division is leaders like it makes sense but it's going to be a constant pressure on everybody from me in a real way starting very soon to not let that happen and so I'm glad and that I think we had those conversations in the summer you know 101 things that nature that allowed some movement I think in the fourth quarter is a preview to it and I'm sure some pockets are good and some pockets probably exactly the same and that's okay just won't be able to be bad I think you know there'll be a meeting probably within two or three weeks where some of these secondary details are gonna start getting addressed so I think it's a really good time for everybody here to gather their thoughts have a meeting with these three so that when they come to that meeting they're very prepared and like for example I need to hear other things from accounting strategy and creative right now but I'm super excited about approving that as the standard way we do things and that's how happen in a world where this company has no financial pressure it is insane that we let the flaws of human behavior cause friction I mean this should be the happiest place on earth the financial pressure is taken out of the equation so like now you're just letting people's pride and ego and personalities create friction if we are truly down to work if a word or a number or a slide can cause a flare-up of any nature a disconnect an argument an issue humans are bad and end and amazing they're bad in the micro and they're amazing in the macro we're amazing we're still here we're cruisin like we could have been eliminated a long time ago everybody's so sad and scared about kids on phones and their think about the micro the macro is we're fine we just have to do a better job it's gonna be a big year of really solidifying this thing where I'm gonna go back into the micro which will fix it but it comes out of communication whatever you've seen all you need to do and you should take the baton it's on you you're the only person that can change stuff take the baton and go have a conversation with all eleven people that you've been that you think have been affected by it and over-communicate of like what you believe in and how good you want it to be and what you think is the interpretation of what's coming out of my mouth you will win that game you'll win that game because if they're not looking to hear you and if you've got me read right you will win that game right there right no I mean I mean they're like right Dylan like you really

like you guys really know that it will win that game if you have the right intent truly if you are pure to the logo and to the macro your zero vulnerability the people that lose here people are not here either normally almost nine out of ten times are so insecure in their own selves that their behavior manifests into a selfish place which undermines their ability to succeed here this company's completely built on emotional intelligence it's all I've got and it's super hard to trick me you can be sliding by for even a year or two the reason I'm successful in doing things is I don't box people into a thousand rules I let them do their thing then I audit that thing that I try to give feedback and then we adjust if they're able to address that feedback this is why I want to do town halls I don't want to theoretically if you view it that way through my brother unlike I plants or every [ __ ] question we won't ask every question because people may be scared ask the hardest of hardest questions but we will be in an unbelievable place as an organization in two years because I think our town halls are gonna change our culture in the best way possible there's nothing bad going on like you know it's like so great like I don't know what else to say it's so great like there's just people gonna have a really tough time like like you written like I don't know we're just doing the right things like I do I think if somebody gets fired that they tell their friends here that it was unjust of course they do who doesn't you got fired because you don't have self-awareness that's what led to the vulnerability so I don't even think they're doing it like some people like should one hunt like 47 warnings and still say it like some people just actually are not self-aware let somebody come in to me and ask for a promotion that every single feedback left right down client and like [ __ ] anonymous friends from high school is negative so like yeah and by the way like I said we'll get it wrong sometimes serendipity of like the 11 people that are touching you they were all flawed and you were okay that actually can happen because sometimes it's not 11 sometimes it's four sometimes it's sick sometimes the client was a jerk but it took a year to figure it out like but boy are we like as a net score running a good spot so I'm gonna make it as awesome for everybody as possible always I just would rather take two killers and send them to a hiking trip than to continue to pay somebody who's a d player thinks they're an a player is kind of nice but weirdly not as nice do you think if you really understood what was going on you know like I know what the [ __ ] is going on like in a way that nobody understands hey I have natural emotional talent and B I'm spending a fuckload of money to collect the data a lot of stuff I'm doing it's kind of when the answers I gave you I love to fix up here cuz then everything ass gets a lot easier I think everybody tries to fix a sink when the well is broken nobody's more powerful than me in the market and genuinely believe that meaning I'm gonna be busy because I'm that thing like I'm that shield I just need to create a lot of framework so that I don't have to be involved you'll never see me say that I know what the creative needs to be I know the frameworks and the conversations and the mutual respect and the thoughts and the business acumen it needs to be put into these things but let's not you know like you everybody has their gripes like and I want to make sure we curtail ours and I think they're appropriate just think they're appropriate on the other side too got a lot of work to do but it's good work again all the ingredients are there now we're closed and I'm gonna have these conversations so I'm even here a long time we've spent no time with you on that like it's gonna be good like I know what happens next I've seen this rodeo before very very confident and the speed in which the human vulnerabilities kick out of the system when I get this deep is very quickly like I walk out of rooms like this sometimes in like fire John you know what I mean it's gonna be like end by the way like I'll be careful I don't make that it's not that extreme but it's it's gonna be good some the person I actually have a real belief in this the person that has the least ego yeah that's like genuinely my belief the person that actually cares about the person on the other side of it way more than they care about themselves and we have a whole industry of people that care about themselves the whole world that's why I'm it's why I'm good at what I do for a living it doesn't matter what I think it matters what the other person thinks and that trumps anything that I think and then all my behavior and work goes into trying to figure that out humility makes a good storyteller yeah the hardest which is why it's hard everybody is such a good storyteller you'd all be making trillion dollar

movies and living on a boat like you know what I mean like that's like you know it's like you know like it's why I love the Internet so much because the reason so many people didn't live on a boat was Hollywood is fixed and corporate America is real but now kids that are great storytellers that do have empathy for their audience and understand their space they make it they put it out and they've leverage and you don't get the judge of the Kardashians or fat Jewish or CNN's documentary of the 80s as good content the market does and I love that because we're closer to that than ever that's what I think makes a good storyteller somebody's got a pulse of culture and then deploys the audience's point of view not theirs I everything I think about I take like my eyes out and I put my audience's eyes in that's why I read all my comments that's why I only have time for that cuz that allows me to get the qualitative feedback to understand where I need to take things I'm sorry brother dictatorship I'm just gonna do it like you take the baton that I've just given you and you try to do as much with us you can you take what you believe here you take the belief and you start reenacting it parroting in rooms the people that have done well at Vayner that have been here for five years a lot of these they a lot of it still set and was like but Gary says and it's kind of cheeky and feels weird but like that's how they got trained that's what it became and it's not about like I wish I could say vaynermedia it's just what they're used to saying cuz it was so we were so small you know but like and the ones that didn't like didn't care about the vision they just thought it was cuz they've been here or like it's about to work you know but the work starts with feeding each other well honey Empire not Empire honey it's a big thing for me because it makes everything go faster once you like each other like the debates take on a different tone I love debating it's really nice when you actually like each other and the way to get people to respect each other is to be good at filtering skills cuz we had a lot of that problem there's people that actually liked each other but they didn't respect the other person cuz they actually figured it out and they were right and that became a vulnerability I think that's why we're seeing some of the changes we're having you're not fun it is when you're the real deal to be able to back up me telling you that I'm actually putting in the work and know everything that's going on I say that to like let you know I'm in my [ __ ] like everybody's very confused about this Gary Vee thing it's easy I don't do anything he just follows me around they take the quotes and they make pictures like I am the CEO of this company and I work 18 hours a day so like you know I'll reply and say we're not going to get this through GP did this I told them we're in a good place let's get this done and then you'll feel good you just have to communicate in this company and not to your friend who has the same issues as you like I always say I'm like you know who listens to your complaining your other loser friend so like it's really good its all-time good we didn't get here by accident a lot of you've been around the industry for a long time this is the single great success story of digit of social shop now we're digital but like this is it we want we did it was us we are the general you're the AKQA the Razorfish of our generation you want like if you care about add stuff but we're not even started you know and it happens cuz it's good it just takes people a long time to keep our cynical it's hard to work in a company I get it but like I don't know what else besides a ridiculous open-door policy you can do then you bring in Claude doing everything I can don't everything I can but if you're wired to be cynical or try to make it bad that's what's gonna happen you're in charge you know so feel free long the way the real tance are you can start with because I get a lot of email like hashtag we're making a commercial a TV commercial then I'll see it and they have Suakin filters so let's do a little lingo amongst us for now for next to you know six to eight weeks while we get this completely organized the people that like me the most like in this company are my assistants and d-roc because they see it they know all the truths you know and I really want to eliminate 10 to 30 percent cynicism in our company this year I just posed my mind that somebody that I would spend 40 meetings with and Claude would spend for meetings with and

they would spend three meetings with Jason like a leader like that and then they're gonna believe a glass door review to make their decision of what they think about to come like they're really wild you know the whole fake news thing and all that like I know that's true humans are weak like at this they've like want to see unfortunately so many humans are wired to what they were taught by their parents to not trust and look at the wrong stuff and like think the wrong things happening eliminate everyday we have way more people in this company a good company that's flourishing that are cynical then are blindly optimistic and we have a cult dish type leader you know I'm not confused with my spiel and yet we have more cynicism from what do you think's going on in the rest of the world [ __ ] you know so I'm excited about the honey Empire I want to do this for myself and it for my legacy I dream that there's a three-year-old girl right now who's gonna build the biggest company in the world and she's gonna build it the way I'm building this because I prove that you can build a [ __ ] monster company like this
