Untrapping Product Teams (David Pereira) — 'Corruption is the honest word'

David Pereira — Untrapping Product Teams host and product-management writer — releases his Eric conversation and pulls three takeaways: corruption is the honest name for enshittification, a mission statement is worthless without values-in-action, and the 'culture bank' as a running deposit-vs-withdrawal ledger with Ries's rule to never voluntarily make a withdrawal.

“We call it mission drift, bureaucracy, enshittification. Eric says our grandparents had a sharper word for making money by draining value out of a company. As he puts it, "It's so much easier to destroy than it is to create."” — David Pereira on LinkedIn
