Organizational Drift and Founder's Disease

How founder's disease produces organizational drift — same strategies running against changed conditions.

Founders and long-tenured executives often engineer the same approaches that won them their initial wins — even as markets, technologies, and the firm's own size change shape. From the LHS Lens, organizational drift is the recursive inheritance-conditioning dynamic at the firm level: the firm carries forward the inherited-conditioning matrix that made the early wins, now running against changed conditions.
