I just find that people can waste a lot of time in meetings, so I try to restrict meetings to the minimum that they need to be. But I have lots of time in my day where I am available to have informal conversations, where I grab someone to talk, and people can just walk up to my desk and talk to me.

If you're an entrepreneur and you're starting a company, I think the first thing you do is you go and talk to a bunch of people.

I am at home with my kids from 6 to 8. If I have a work dinner, I'll schedule to have dinner after 8. But we're working at night. You'll get plenty of emails from me post-8 P.M. when my kids go to bed.

Outlets are turning away from phone polling, which can be problematic. For example, we did a poll for NBC around the Ebola crisis; we provided results in 24 hours. Their traditional phone poll would have taken a week to turn around. We're showing people we can do high-quality work: we've proved that with the work we do with the media.

I want to go public because I have the right reason to go public - because the benefits outweigh the costs.
cheating people
You've got to give people a disincentive to cheat.
consumer happening low next perspective work works
The only thing that's going to work from a consumer perspective is something that's very simple, very low price, and works with all labels. I don't see that happening in the next year.
