Jason Fried is one of the founders of 37 Signals, the makers of Basecamp, Highrise, Campfire and Backpack and author of Rework.

In this video Jason Fried talks about how 37 signals started, and how it growth to their current business model, how 37 signals offices work. It’s interesting understanding how 37 signals works in a very silent way in order to prevent distractions and prioritize work.

Probably the best mentality in 37 signals is their “horizontal growth” philosophy where their workers grow themself doing what they are really good at instead of being promoted and taken away from what they are really good at.
