When leaving Theranos, Tyler wrote to Elizabeth Holmes, “I’m dedicated to the long term vision of the company, but I’m worried that some of our current practices will prevent us from reaching our long term goals.” This statement encapsulates a crucial, yet often overlooked idea: company culture and transparent reporting policies are essential to the long-term success of any organization.

He illustrates how empowering employees to voice concerns enables companies to address issues before they escalate.
