How to Build a Team That Gives a Sh*t (and Thrives)
summary
MLC Studio reports 98%+ retention across ~50 people and a GI Biz Best Place to Work award, and explains how that comes from concrete systems: weekly mandatory morning catchup to restore ambient accountability, mandatory standups with camera on, paid learning time, peer kudos and leaderboards, use of Gather for co‑presence, task management in ClickUp, and outcome‑focused briefs. Expect practical steps to tighten accountability, reduce willpower drain, and measure impact rather than vague culture advice.
