The American Dream of upward mobility is not just dying for people but for companies, too.

Poor ppl remain poor. Rich ppl remain rich and get richer.

Small co's remain small. Big co's remain big and get bigger.

Change the outcome? Change the rules.

Blitzscaling your company isn’t easy; if it were, everyone would do it. Like most things of value in this world, blitzscaling is contrarian and unique.

[Reid Hoffman @reidhoffman]

Blitzscaling is too good a technique to be limited to Silicon Valley and China, and we have too many problems that need to be solved at lightning speed. https://t.co/lhF1cjY6ks
