What made Travis Kalanick so effective wasn’t just how hard he worked. It was how quickly he could get to the heart of a problem.

Andrew Macdonald, President and COO of Uber, recalls watching Travis walk into meetings, ask a few pointed questions and reshape the thinking of people who had spent weeks on the issue.

His biggest takeaway: great leaders don’t need to have every answer. They need to know how to move the room forward.
