The Builder's Room (Technovation × Women Techmakers) — Tara Chklovski hosts Eric on Incorruptible

Technovation and Google's Women Techmakers program host Eric on The Builder's Room — a virtual conversation with founder Tara Chklovski, with half the questions coming from the Technovation and Women Techmakers communities and half from attendees. Technovation notes Eric gave the keynote at their World Summit 14 years ago and his work shaped the entrepreneurship modules used by 20 years of Technovation builders (25,000 apps and 6,000 AI prototypes to date).

“Eric coined the term "vanity metrics." He built a career telling founders to stop measuring what looks good and start measuring what's real. Technovation builders have always worked that way. His new book, Incorruptible, distills two decades of research into why organizations drift from their mission and what it takes to build one that doesn't.” — Technovation on LinkedIn

  • Tara Chklovski Founder & CEO, Technovation
    “Now his second book, Incorruptible, is just what the world needs right now. A bright light that says each of our actions makes a difference — yes even on the big, important financial markets. And we can make a lot of money — AND — help humans flourish.”
  • Salma Mohammed Sayed High school student, aspiring developer (Egypt); attendee, Inside Incorruptible
    “تخيل إنك رايح شغلك في يوم عادي جدًا… تحط المفتاح في باب مكتبك، وتكتشف إنه مش بيفتح. مش عشان المفتاح بايظ. لكن عشان اللي ماسكين الشركة قرروا بالليل يغيروا الأقفال ويمنعوك تدخل. ده بالظبط اللي حصل مع Sol Price، مؤسس FedMart. صاحب الشركة أصلًا مؤتمن على مين؟ Sol كان شايف إن الإجابة هي: العميل.”

    “מה קורה לארגון אחרי שהוא מצליח? אתמול השתתפתי בשיחה עם ‏Eric Ries‏ מחבר The Lean Startup, ועם ‏Tara Chklovski‏ , מייסדת ומנכ״לית Technovation , ארגון שבו אני שגרירה דוברת ומנטורית, במסגרת שיחה שעסקה בשאלה מסקרנת במיוחד: How do you build something incorruptible ? אבל הפעם Ries עסק דווקא בצד השני של הסיפור. אנחנו יודעים לדבר על איך ארגון נולד, איך בונים מוצר, איך עושים ולידציה, איך מגיעים ל Product-Market Fit ואיך עושים Scale. אבל מה קורה אחרי שהארגון גדל ? איך ארגון שהתחיל עם מטרה ברורה, חדשנות ויכולת לנוע מהר, לא הופך עם השנים למערכת כבדה של תהליכים, בירוקרטיה, תמריצים ומדדים - שבסופו של דבר מתחילה לשרת את עצמה במקום את המטרה שלשמה הוקמה ?”
  • Olga Menissez Global Product & Strategy Leader; HEC Paris Product Tech Track instructor
    “Bringing an insightful book on vacation is a great opportunity for any product enthusiast to slow down, take a step back, and reflect on a bigger question: How can product organizations, institutions, and systems remain resilient, trustworthy, and true to their mission over time? After The Lean Startup, the worldwide bestseller I recommend to my HEC Paris students in the Product Tech Track, Eric Ries is back with The In­corruptible. This time, Eric Ries goes beyond startup methodology to explore leadership, innovation, and the principles that help organizations resist corruption—not only in the obvious sense, but also the gradual erosion of - values, - purpose, - and accountability.”
