Lyft

Last week, the Lyft Policy team attended the Social Innovation Summit where our very own Heather Foster, Lyft's Senior Director of Federal & International Public Policy, spoke on a panel on Civic Engagement and Democracy alongside NFL player and activist Eric Reid and President and CEO of Planned Parenthood, Alexis McGill Johnson. We love seeing our team members exemplify Lyft's values and leadership in key spaces ⭐️

I'm not an expert, but here's what I can say for sure about turning around a company. * You need a compelling vision for the future. (Bonus points if you obsess over your customers-- that's part of ours.) * You need to be able to execute super-well. * And you need an extraordinary team. Not just amazing individuals-- an extraordinary team. You'll know you've got one if you see extremely high trust, extremely low politics, and extremely large smiles on their faces when they work together. Lyft just held its first-ever investor day, and from an external PoV it was an enormous success. (One proof-point: Three "Buy" upgrades, including a double-upgrade from "Sell" to "Buy.") But the huge win was the way it further brought us together. Have a look behind the scenes and you'll see what I mean. Huge thanks to all who attended and who made it happen. We're gonna crush it together.
