How to lose a billion dollars super fast

Does your company suffer from low-H? (Hustle, not heroin.)

Or low-F? (As in no fucks left.)

No worries, the big boss has figured it out!

• It’s culture! We need to read a book! Or, hire a consultant! Company offsite? Hawaii? So cultured!
• It’s values! Embrace your new mandated values!
• Actually, it’s people’s perception. Stupid people. Rebranding time!
• We forgot, we need to hire an adult. A savior! Someone who will fix everything. Someone from a real company, respected by friends & enemies alike. Someone who clearly spent a pretentious amount of time on their website..
• The savior said we need to be data-driven. Duh, dummies. Now, we drive data! Make charts go up and to the right, brrr!
• Funny story, turns out it’s the staff. Fire key/random people. Let folks know we’re serious.

So, you raised a big round? Time to spend it all!

We can afford new people, better people, smart people. 🍷

While many of these books are fantastic & highly recommended, that doesn’t need to get in the way of folks mis-using, mis-understanding, and mis-applying them!
