This practice gained attention in the early 2000s through the ideas of Alistair Cockburn and his notion of a “walking skeleton.” More recently, it has been adopted by those employing MVP (minimum viable product) as a strategy for risk reduction.

Dan Hockenmaiersubstack.comOrg debt is just as dangerous as tech debt but is talked about much less
Org debt builds up every time a company operates without discipline:
- Inconsistent principles for promotions and comp
- Hiring without a clear scope for the new role
