About the Book

The most radical and powerful idea in business isn't disruption... it's integrity. \"MAGNIFICENT.\" - Rory Sutherland \"INDISPENSIBLE!\" - Kim Scott, New York Times bestselling author of Radical Candor \"THE BEST AND MOST IMPORTANT BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR.\" - Dan Heath, New York Times bestselling author of Reset 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? In Incorruptible, Ries reveals the hidden forces that cause even great organizations to drift from their values and shows how to design businesses that can withstand that pressure. Drawing on two decades of work with founders, CEOs, and investors around the world, offers the blueprint for \"mission-locked\" organizations that can grow, prosper, and endure without losing their soul. 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.

Review :
Magnificent.... It is everything I have intuitively believed translated to paper. The best and most important business book of the year. If you want to build a company that will be making the world a better place a hundred years from now, it’s not enough to be a great person with good intentions–you need to consciously build incorruptible governance. Ries shows you how. Indispensable! Eric Ries gives founders a playbook to help avoid the inevitable pitfalls and find your path to the business you set out to create. This profound book will inform and infuriate, and then it will help you see a path forward. It should be required reading for anyone who manages (or has a manager). Gravity is real. A must-read for any founder, board member, investor, or consumer who cares about protecting entrepreneurship, innovation, and the productive power of capitalism from the dangers of short-term thinking—and for anyone who recognizes the importance of trustworthy and enduring institutions for a thriving democracy. Incorruptible destroys the myth that only sleazy founders and companies get rich. Eric Ries shows you how to build a mission-driven company that will be humane, ethical, and make piles of money for decades. And Eric's charm, wonderful writing, and warm wisdom make this book a rare joy to read. Incorruptible is the rare business book that is both a moral compass and a practical playbook. Ries shows us, with rigor and optimism, how to build organizations that are worthy of our trust. If you want the world to be a better place than it is, this book is a good place to start. Incorruptible demonstrates the importance of mission-driven leadership and defying the status quo to build organizations that withstand the test of time.
