“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves,
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your
playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as
we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Marianne Williamson

A History Lesson
‘The machine itself provided
competitive advantage.’
Business soon found
themselves in competition with other businesses
that also had machines.
Seek Competitive Advantage:
1. Improving Machines
2. Introduce Standardized
Processes
Why? So uneducated
farm workers could work
machines and maximize output.

Another Shift 1965 – Gordon Moore, Engineer for Intel
His Observation:
Number of transistors per
integrated circuit was doubling
every 18 months.
His Prediction:
This trend would continue for 10 years.
Known as Moore’s Law.
This represents exponential growth.
The Outcome:
Exponential growth has continued for over 45 years with no signs of
stopping.
World Wide Web was enabled.
People are connected to each other and to each
others’ knowledge.

It’s Not
Knowledge has power, it’s just that
the longevity of that power has been
dramatically reduced.
True power comes from the ability to acquire/build new
knowledge on a constant basis.

Today’s competitive advantage: The ability of people to work together, to openly share their knowledge, to leverage off each other’s insights, to create something new and wonderful on an ongoing basis. Therefore your most important asset today is to build a culture in which people are building and creating together.

Attachment
Problem Solving
Open Communication
Attachment is the foundation for relationships, the
connection allows the development of trust.
When attachment and trust exist I choose to communicate openly and honestly.
People can support each other to inspire and develop creative ideas and solve the problems that affect the
organization or community.
Awareness: constantly evaluate relationships to see if they are working effectively. You must be willing to intervene to keep your relationships healthy and
productive.

“If you want to retain talent, you’ve got to create cause. Otherwise, you get a relationship in which I am working for you purely because I’m earning money.
Then you get very short-term thinking, very selfish thinking.” - Charles Handy
Without common cause people all have their personal definition of what doing good means.
