OM DENNE EPISODE
Reed Hastings, CEO of Netflix, is Professor Finkelstein's fifth best CEO of 2013. While at first it might seem surprising to see Hastings here—he was on Professor Finkelstein's worst list of CEOs in 2011—he accomplished an amazing transition.

Eschewing an office and giving incredible freedom to his employees, Hastings sets exceptionally high demands and it's working.
