Eric Ries - INCORRUPTIBLE - at Best Bookstore In Union Square
Description
IN CONVERSATION WITH SARAH LACY
In Incorruptible, legendary business author Eric Ries tackles the problem of why success so often turns companies against the people and principles that made them worth building in the first place.
Why do companies founded with strong ideals drift toward short-term thinking, extractive behavior, and mission abandonment? Why do so many great founders end up being kicked out despite doing everything right? And more importantly, how can you build an organization from day one to stop it happening to you?
Those are the questions Eric answers in Incorruptible. And we're THRILLED to announce that Eric is coming to The Best Bookstore in Union Square A WEEK BEFORE PUBLICATION for a special early-release event.
The event is 100% free and you can also pre-order your copy of INCORRUPTIBLE for pickup at the event. Eric will be in conversation with Sarah Lacy and there will be a q&a and book signing afterwards.
Space is strictly limited (we can fit about 100-120 people in our downstairs event space) so you’ll want to register RIGHT NOW.
