Description

From Eric Ries, creator of The Lean Startup, comes a bold and urgently needed rethink of how organisations are built—and why success itself so often turns companies against the people and principles that made them worth building in the first place.

The Lean Startup transformed how a generation of entrepreneurs build products and sparked a global movement for smarter, faster innovation. Now Eric Ries takes the next step, asking a deeper question: how can we build companies that stay true to their mission once they succeed?

Including wide-ranging examples such as Cadbury, John Lewis Partnership, Vanguard and Anthropic, Incorruptible uncovers the urgent need for purpose-driven leadership. It gives every builder, founder, executive, investor or citizen the tools to create enterprises that uplift rather than exploit. We all have a role to play in shaping a better future. This book is the place to start.
