All the examples he gave can go both ways. Hindsight is 20/20 > They’d be better served by addressing the cultural or skill-gaps culminating in the reliability problems instead of trying to solve it themselves We might end up with things like adding type safety to a dynamic language, relational operation to a document based database > Founders feel trapped by slog of meeting financial projections, and want to reorganize company efforts towards increased innovation without connecting dots to how it will meet the financial projections. If not, we might end up like kodak, missing the digital imaging era. > They’d be better served by holding their managers accountable or empowering their People team Or we are increasing our management overhead instead of getting things done.

Be open, self-aware, humble, and keep learning is the best we can do.
