Michelle Riconscente, PhD (CEO & Co-Founder, Valutare) — five takeaways from Eric's Responsive Conference closing keynote: 'Trust is an asset. Ries called it the Culture Bank'

Riconscente is CEO and co-founder of Valutare and wrote The AI Amplification Effect. Her post on LinkedIn lists five themes from Eric's closing keynote at Responsive Conference, hosted by Jamie Lynn White, among them the Culture Bank, mission infrastructure, and Mary Parker Follett's common purpose as an invisible leader.

“Yesterday at Responsive Conference, Jamie Lynn White hosted a fantastic closing keynote by Eric Ries. My favorite part? His points about the need to rethink performance management, of course! Some key themes: > Trust is an asset. Ries called it the “Culture Bank”: every time a company does the right thing at a real cost to itself, it makes a deposit. Every short-term, spreadsheet-driven compromise makes a withdrawal. > Mission needs infrastructure, not posters. We build serious systems to ensure financial compliance. If mission is truly core, it should have real accountability, rituals, and decision-making weight too.” — Michelle Riconscente, PhD on LinkedIn, summarizing Eric Ries at Responsive Conference
