The company's co-founder and COO Leo Widrich shares his insights on how to create a culture of transparency within a company, emphasizing the importance of starting with personal transparency, having clear values and policies in place, hiring with transparency in mind, starting slowly and steadily, using tools for transparency, and reminding oneself that transparency may not be suitable for every organization.
