Nurturing a creative company culture
summary
CSR Racing 2 hits: launched June 2016, reaches #1 top‑grossing in 126 countries and racks up over a million 5‑star reviews. The studio ships aggressively — 7 full releases in 2017, 49 season prize cards awarded, ~70 cards added and 40 new features — while integrating partner cars (Ferrari, Universal) and running machine learning player cohort analysis on the backend. Culture uses Nancy Kline’s Thinking Environment: no interruptions, rounds of appreciation, hiring for emotional intelligence, curiosity and purpose.
