Not too long ago, Eric Schmidt became the CEO of Google. He is a great role model for any internet entrepreneur. Here I have summarized some important take-aways from his leadership style and some relevant facts.
1- His salary=$1. Thats not a typo. I didnt forget to add any zeros. He makes a one dollar salary, which shows his complete commitment to leading Google unselfishly, making sure all the resources are going to where they need to be. Everyone is dispensable, including himself.
2- There is a higher power. Schmidt realizes that Google is bigger than himself or any individual making it. So he doesnt actually run Google despite what his position tells him. Google is run by the culture.
3- Idea generation- Google needs to stay innovative to stay on top. They have a communication structure set up so that people can freely express their creative ideas for implementation. This flat organization even has a good chuck of money set aside just to look for crazy ideas, and do things that keep the employees passionate. People will be more motivated to work if they are the ones choosing what to work on.
