How Stripe Built a Writing-First Culture 📝 The secret to Stripe's success wasn't just code—it was words on a page: • Every discussion begins with documentation, not meetings Before they discuss, the person had to circulate a structured doc explaining the problem. • Leaders write their thoughts independently first Patrick & John Collison set the tone with detailed emails that influenced the entire company. • Living documents becomes team knowledge bases Each team maintained central documentation summarizing strategy and key decisions. • Important conversations moved from chat to structured docs • Weekly written updates replaced status meetings Teams sent structured notes covering progress and blockers instead. • Email threads documented decisions, not meetings This created transparency and ensured nothing got lost. • "Just write" culture valued speed over perfection Tell me your views on this. I would be interested to know.
