The Culture and Dynamics of Dell, Inc. During the Early Years

Michael Dell, Dell, Inc.

Dell explains the culture and dynamics of Dell, Inc. during its early years. The company was run by hardworking, versatile people who were action-orientated and willing to listen. Many of those early employees went on to fill important positions at the company later on. Some employees, however, had a hard time as the company grew, even though they had performed well when the company was smaller. At a fast-growing company, Dell notes, the job grows faster than the person. A certain kind of job will vary enormously during different stages of the growth of the company.
