The Executive Brief, once a month, free. What it is

A number-one badge is a lovely employee of the month certificate for a company worried about the whole department.

Below leads Netflix’s TV chart with 21 million views. Meanwhile, Netflix has overhauled its content leadership amid last week’s layoffs of 1,000 employees. Imagine putting the hit on your performance review and discovering the review is of everyone upstairs.

Revenue growth has slowed, and Netflix wants more viewing engagement. Below can win the chart without fixing that problem. Someone still has to choose everything viewers click after it.

For staff, the upheaval is already here. For subscribers, it arrives through the programmes the new leadership commissions and renews. The queue makes those decisions look pleasantly personal: things you might like. Your taste comes with a new boss.
