The Learning Leader Show: Ryan Hawk on Eric's 'organizational soul craft' — 'I want to know who would you rather die than betray'
Ryan Hawk drops a 57-minute Learning Leader Show episode with Eric two days from launch — the Saul Price/FedMart founding story, the ketchup-as-heroin metaphor for price hikes, governance as 'organizational soul craft,' and the Harvard Law research on founder ouster after IPO.
“In this episode, you will learn: ❖ Why success makes your company a target for takeover, and why the most successful companies are the most vulnerable ❖ The story of Saul Price, the father of modern retail, and the governance lesson hidden in Costco's origin ❖ Why a tiny price increase is the business equivalent of taking heroin, and what Costco's $1.50 hot dog reveals about the most underrated asset in business ❖ Why it was not Whole Foods' mistakes that doomed them. It was their success. ❖ What governance actually means and why Eric calls it "organizational soul craft." ❖ What Harvard Law School research reveals about how many founders lose control within three years of going public” — Ryan Hawk on YouTube (The Learning Leader Show)
