About this episode
This is our full conversation with Eric Ries, recorded live on TBPN.
We discuss why successful companies drift away from the principles that made them great, how short-term incentives and quarterly reporting can damage long-term value creation, why companies like Costco and Patagonia have built mission-first cultures that resist outside pressure, and how governance structures like public benefit corporations and long-term trusts could reshape the future of capitalism.
