  • Why does the tech industry experience such a strong version of the coordination headwind, compared to other industries?
    • Because tech is bits not atoms, and so it goes faster than other types of organizations.
      • Its OODA loop is the fastest.
      • Not because tech is better, because tech is easier.
    • That makes it the vanguard of these kinds of issue.
      • It has more acute versions of the problems that everyone has.
    • Not just the coordination headwind but also the optimization ratchet.
    • The tech industry runs hotter; it experiences all of the factors normal organizations experience, but faster and more intensely.
