I completely agree. That's why we founders, who are much better at using simple language, should ideate a way to pivot our unicorns to disrupt this space. These executives will discover they're not a culture fit in this paradigm shift where sweat equity is properly valued.

(Can I get some help working in 'gamification', 'bootstrapping', and 'dogfooding'?)

Don't forget "leverage" instead of "use", "orthogonal" instead of "unrelated", and "onboarding" instead of "training"!

You forgot to pivot a second time.

It seems that the adjective 'completely' can be used to mean 'dis-'.
