Leaders show their work

Read Original

The article argues that for organizations to scale effectively, leaders must go beyond just documenting decisions with URLs. They must explicitly show their work—explaining the 'why' and 'how' behind decisions. It discusses the trade-off between transparency and efficiency as teams grow and advocates for adopting systems (like GitHub's issue and pull request workflows) that naturally capture and expose this context, making collaboration more scalable than traditional top-down communication.
