“The period 2000-2002 will bring the single greatest change in
worldwide economic and business conditions since we came down from the trees.”
David Schneider & Grady Means, MetaCapitalism
“The corporation as we know it, which is now 120 years old, is
not likely to survive the next 25 years. Legally and
financially, yes, but not structurally and economically.”
Peter Drucker, Business 2.0 (08.00)

Lessons from the Bees!
Since merger mania is now the rage, what lessons can the bees teach us? A simple one: Merging is not in
nature. [Nature’s] process is the exact opposite: one of growth, fragmentation and dispersal. There is no
megalomania, no merging for merging’s sake. The point is that unlike corporations, which just get bigger, bee colonies know when the time has come to split up into
smaller colonies which can grow value faster. What the bees are telling us is that the corporate
world has got it all wrong.”David Lascelles, Co-director of The Centre for the
Study of Financial Innovation [UK]

Brand Talent: The Great War for Talent
“When land was the scarce resource, nations battled
over it. The same is happening now for talented people.”
Stan Davis & Christopher Meyer, futureWEALTH
From “1, 2 or 3” [JW] to … “Best talent in each
industry segment to build best proprietary intangibles” [EM]

“We believe companies can increase their market cap 50 percent in 3 years. Steve
Macadam at Georgia Pacific changed 20 of his 40 box plant managers to put
more talented, higher paid managers in charge. He increased
profitability from $25 million to $80 million in 2 years.”
Ed Michaels, War for Talent (05.17.00)
“Top performing companies are two to four times more likely
than the rest to pay what it takes to prevent losing
top performers.”
Ed Michaels, War for Talent (05.17.00)
“Talented people are less likely to wait their turn. We used to
view young people as trainees; now they are authorities. Arguably
this is the first time the older generation can – and must – leverage the younger generation very early in their careers.”
Ed Michaels, War for Talent (05.17.00)
“Diversity defines the health and wealth of nations in a new century. Mighty is the
mongrel. … The hybrid is hip. The impure, the mélange, the adulterated, the blemished, the
rough, the black-and-blue, the mix-and-match – these people are inheriting the earth. Mixing is the new norm. Mixing trumps
isolation. It spawns creativity, nourishes the human spirit, spurs economic growth
and empowers nations.”
G. Pascal Zachary, The Global Me: New Cosmopolitans and the Competitive Edge
The Cracked Ones Let in the Light
“Our business needs a massive transfusion of talent, and talent, I believe, is most likely to be found

The Commodity Trap
“The ‘surplus society’ has a surplus of
similar companies, employing
similar people, with similar educational backgrounds, working in
similar jobs, coming up with similar
ideas, producing similar things, with
similar prices and similar quality.”

Strategy 1:
Lead the Customer!
“These days, you can’t succeed as a company if you’re consumer led –
because in a world so full of so much constant change, consumers can’t
anticipate the next big thing.
Companies should be idea-led and consumer-
informed.”Doug Atkin, partner,Merkley Newman Harty
“Our strategies must be tied to leading edge
customers on the attack. If we focus on the defensive
customers, we will also become defensive.”

RADICAL STRATEGIES
REQUIRED
“One cannot be tentative about this. Excuses like ‘channel
conflict’ or ‘marketing and sales aren’t ready’ cannot be allowed. Delay and you risk being cut out of your own market, perhaps not by traditional competitors but by companies you
never heard of 24 months ago.”
Jack Welch [07.00/Forbes.com]
ACT NOW, ACT FAST,
KEEP ACTING
“It’s better to be first with less than last with more. Success on
the Web isn’t just about time to market, it’s also about
‘time to learning.’ ”
Jeff Levy, eHatchery
SUMMARY: REINVENT
EVERYTHING
WebWorld = Everything
Web as a way to run your business’ innardsWeb as connector for your entire supply-demand chain Web as “spider’s web” which re-conceives the industry
Web/B2B as ultimate wake-up call to “commodity producers”
Web as the scourge of slack, inefficiency, sloth, bureaucracy, poor customer data
Web as an Encompassing Way of LifeWeb = Everything (P.D. to after-sales)
Web forces you to focus on what you do bestWeb as entrée, at any size, to World’s Best at Everything
as next door neighbor
Message: eCommerce is not a technology play! It is a
relationship, partnership, organizational and
communications play, made possible by new
technologies.
Message: There is no such thing as an effective B2B or
Internet-supply chain strategy in a low-trust,
bottlenecked-communication, six-layer
organization.
A DREAMER’S MEDIUM!
“There is no use trying,” said Alice. “One can’t believe impossible things.”
“I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was
your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve
believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”
Lewis Carroll

Strategy 4:
Design Matters!
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
“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.”Steve Jobs
Design “is” … WHAT &
WHY I LOVE. LOVE.
Design “is” … WHY I
GET MAD. MAD.
Design is never neutral.
Hypothesis: DESIGN is the principal difference between love and hate! [In a world where passion
rules.]
Paradox [?][!]

Strategy 5:
It’s the Experience!
“Experiences are as distinct from services as services are from
goods.”Joseph Pine & James Gilmore, The
Experience Economy: Work Is Theatre & Every Business a Stage
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
“Car designers need to create a story. Every car provides an
opportunity to create an adventure. …“The Prowler makes you smile. Why? Because it’s focused. It has a plot, a
reason for being, a passion.”

Strategy 7:
BRAND POWER!
Brand It! Now, More Than Ever!
“The increasing difficulty in differentiating between products and
the speed with which competitors take
up innovations will assist in the rise and rise of the brand.”
Gillian Law and Nick Grant, Management [New Zealand]
“We are in the twilight of a society based on data. As information and intelligence become the domain of computers, society will place more value on the one human ability that cannot be automated: emotion.
Imagination, myth, ritual - the language of emotion - will affect everything from our purchasing decisions
to how we work with others. Companies will thrive on the basis of their stories and
myths. Companies will need to understand that their products are less important than their stories.”
Rolf Jensen, Copenhagen Institute for Future Studies
Brand = You Must Care!
“Success means never letting the competition define you. Instead you have to define
yourself based on a point of view you care deeply about.”
Tom Chappell, Tom’s of Maine
Part I: Brand InsidePart II: Brand Outside
Part III: Brand Leadership
Brand Leadership
Passion Rules!
“Leadership is a performance. You have to be
conscious of your behavior, because everybody else is.”
Carly Fiorina
Brand Leadership!
“A key – perhaps the key – to leadership is the effective
communication of a story.”
Howard Gardner Leading Minds: An Anatomy of Leadership
“Create a Cause, not a ‘business.’ ”
Gary Hamel, Fortune (06.00), on re-inventing a company (Exemplar #1:
Charles Schwab)
“A leader is a dealer in hope.”
