Kim Scott — 'being a good person is necessary but not sufficient. You also have to build great structures and systems.'
Kim Scott returns to Incorruptible with a new principled reading: for leaders, good character isn't enough — structural integrity is. Frames Eric's central thesis for anyone running a large organization, not just founders.
“This is so true. To be a great leader, being a good person is necessary but not sufficient. You also have to build great structures and systems. Control won't help you. Building structures and systems that ensure that everyone--including you--continues to serve the mission is essential. Thank you, Eric Ries!” — Kim Scott on LinkedIn
