> Whenever you see the word ‘force’ used to describe a technique it looks like some of the fun may be leaving Google along with its talent. Once again, is this kind of thing avoidable when a company becomes the size, scope and influence of Google? Few have enough experience to even know this especially in a company that has gone from 0 to world leader in such a short amount of time.
Well, they used force in the sense, "Hey, let's force management to pay attention to all the crazy ideas engineering is coming up with," not, "Hey, let's force engineering to pay attention to all the crazy ideas management has."
Doesn't actually seem like there's a talent leak, but rather a talent utilization leak. See: Dodgeball.
