That’s something Amazon does well:

Principal engineers are expected to give talks about their experience, which are heavily attended in person and widely shared.

It’s not perfect, but it’s less abstract when one or two concepts at a time, they explain why those truism through their personal experience.

“Earn Trust” is a truism — but being able to search for talks by the keyword “earn trust” where a high level engineer discusses different situations from their career and how they handled them is useful.
