“When asked to name just one big merger that had lived up to expectations, Leon

Cooperman, former co-chairman of Goldman Sachs’ Investment Policy

Committee, answered: ‘I’m sure there are success stories out there, but at this

moment I draw a blank.’ ”

“The model is about partial acquisitions and ownerships that then form a whole. Each part has to have value separately, be able to raise capital separately, and

motivate employees separately. Corporations of the past never had that.”

your best employees and best businesses and spin them off and just own 40 percent of everything

“The best swordsman in the world doesn’t need to fear the second best swordsman in the world; no, the person for him to be afraid of is some ignorant antagonist who has never had a

sword in his hand before; he doesn’t do the thing he ought to do, and so the expert isn’t prepared for him; he does the thing he ought not to do and often it catches the expert out

and ends him on the spot.”

Welcome to

D.I.Y. Nation!“Changes in business processes will emphasize self service. Your costs as

a business go down and

perceived service goes up because customers are

conducting it themselves.” Ray Lane, Oracle

Anne Busquet/ American Express

Not: “Age of the Internet”

Is: “Age of Customer Control”

“In the network economy, the Website becomes the company’s primary interface to the customer.

The user interface becomes the marketing materials, store front,

store interior, sales staff and post-sales support all rolled into one.”

Jakob Nielsen, Designing Web Usability

Change … Or Die!

“Most of the brick and mortars look at the Internet as an add-on business … until they get a major scare. Then they either

change or die. … You have to put all your heart and soul in that direction, the way

Charles Schwab and Dell did.”

Strategy 3:

Design Rules!

And Tomorrow …

“Fifteen years ago companies competed on price. Now It’s

quality. Tomorrow it’s design.”Robert Hayes

All Equal Except …

“At Sony we assume that all products of our competitors have basically the same

technology, price, performance and

features. Design is the only thing that differentiates one product

from another in the marketplace.”

Norio Ohga

Drop-dead Charm!

“The new Beetle fails at most categories. The only

thing it doesn’t fail in is drop-dead charm.”

Jerry Hirshberg, Nissan Design International

Object of Desire!“Every now and then, a design comes

along that radically changes the way we think about a particular object. Case in

point: the iMac. Suddenly, a computer is no longer an anonymous box. It is a

sculpture, an object of desire, something that you look at.”

Katherine McCoy, Michael McCoy, Illinois Institute of Technology

[ Design as Soul

“We don’t have a good language to talk about this kind of thing. In most people’s

vocabularies, design means veneer. … But to me, nothing could be further from the

meaning of design. Design is the fundamental soul of a man-made creation

that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or

service.”Steve Jobs]

Strategy 4:

It’s the Experience!

“Experiences are as distinct from services as

services are from goods.”Joseph Pine & James Gilmore, The

Experience Economy: Work Is Theater & Every Business a Stage

“The [Starbucks] Fix” Is on …

“We have identified a ‘third place.’ And I really believe that sets us apart. The third place is

that place that’s not work or home. It’s the place our

customers come for refuge.”

Nancy Orsolini, District Manager

Safe, On Time and …

“We defined personality as a market niche. We seek to

amuse, to surprise, to entertain.”

Herb Kelleher, Main Man, LUV Airlines

Experience: “Rebel Lifestyle!”

“What we sell is the ability for a 43-year-old accountant to dress

in black leather, ride through small towns and have people

be afraid of him.”

Harley exec, quoted in Results-based Leadership

platform for delivering services that drive the customer

“Organizational Psychotherapy”/

WHO WE ARE!

“Corporate Religion is a completely new way of thinking about companies. Today, the product is still the main communication

highway in the company. When companies make the shift to selling solutions, brands and attitudes … communicating the company’s

attitudes and values becomes the decisive parameter for success. It

demands that you find out who you are as a company.”

Jesper Kunde, Corporate Religion

Brand = You Must Care!

yourself based on a point of view you care deeply about.”
