What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Learn how to lead people by trusting them to do the job you employed them to do. Micro-managing is never helpful.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

The value in delivering something is in delivering, not shouting about it all the time. More active work, fewer status updates.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

There is no sense of purpose. Our purpose is to help the company hit a revenue number - this does not motivate anyone except if you are in sales.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Show people the value of what they are working on. Just telling people to do something for the sake of it, or to make the company a huge amount of cash is not motivational. Hitting a revenue target is NOT a reason to be doing anything.
