Josh Wolpinsky

In 1998, I got a temp job at a tech company and noticed something was wrong. People were performing work instead of doing it. And they kept getting promoted. Twenty-five years later, I'm still seeing the same pattern. In corporations. In institutions. Everywhere. Why do the people who build things keep getting pushed aside? Why do organizations abandon what made them work? I started following the money. Because money tells the truth that words won't. I'm Josh Wolpinsky. Let me show you what I've found.
