      Gurley recommends executives develop five peers in similar companies for quarterly knowledge sharing.

      “I've often gone to my founders or CEOs and I say, you should tell every one of your direct reports to develop five peers in nearby companies, not direct competitors, things that look similar, and have them meet with them four times a year and then bring back and report up.”
