Does your company have a mission or a vision?

Having a vision of where you are going is very different from a goal or even a mission statement. Goals and even mission statements are often limiting, in part because they tend to keep things the way they have always been. By pushing the past forward, by defining the future ideals and growth of a company based on past experiences and biases, they can leave very little room for real growth and change, and that becomes even more of a problem in challenging economies.

Beyond the Mission Statement

Often higher management makes a great deal about the mission statement. It often sounds good, it gives a target to shoot for and, it gives management a sense of accomplishment in creating the statement itself. However, often it is floated down as a fait accompli, an accomplished fact and a new prayer that must be sung by the common employees of the company. The problem with the mission statement is that . . .  (more)

The Currency of Trust

In a very real way, the currency in the interchange of people and companies is Trust. We can see this clearly in the financial situation which developed in banking in these last few years. It was always the popular trust in the dollar and in the banking system that underwrote everything else. When that trust decreased, the financial system faced peril. Underlying trust . . . (more)

The High Cost of Losing Integrity

The Integrity of a company, or any living system, relates to how that system maintains itself dynamically from within. These days, there are enormous pressures to adapt and to conform, and sometimes succumbing to these pressures is erroneously interpreted as being ‘in step’ with the market or as responding to market needs.

Not Minding Your Business

A North American native medicine man once told me this story:  

One day a man was walking through the forest feeling very good. He felt the need to share that good feeling and perform positive gestures for others. As he was passing a large rock, he noticed that around its edge, a small tree seemed to be struggling, and so, the man decided that here was something significantly good that he could do. With all of his strength, he flipped the rock out of the way of the small tree. With pride, he looked down at the cleared ground and was shocked to notice that he had totally disrupted the lives of all of the small animals and creatures that had built their homes under that rock.
There is a popular expression ‘Mind your own business.’ People that take on responsibilities for others, especially tasks and duties that are not their responsibility, are often not minding their own business; they are often not taking care of themselves, and more often than they realize, they are actually disturbing the business of others.

The Corporate Midlife Crisis

In his ground breaking book, The Living Company, Arie de Geus points out that the average corporation does not survive its 40's. Why does this happen?

In many ways the same dynamics that correspond to the infamous mid-life crisis, that occur in the first half of the 40's also affect corporations. The timing and the sequence is remarkably similar. (more)

When Growth Can Kill

It may seem fairly obvious that the cause of the demise of most companies is that they ran out of cash flow. It is the equivalent of running out of blood and going into shock at the personal level. The cause of that demise, that running out of funds may appear to be a loss in revenue, unexpected market trends or even bad luck, but in reality, more often than not, it was because it was preceded with overexpansion, with unrealistic optimism or of hoping that the future would save the company out of the mess of the present.

The Lessons of Waves and Quantum Physics

For several centuries, western culture and business has embraced the idea that the universe is causal and linear: cause and effect. You run an ad campaign and you expect certain results. The pool of potential customers is a fairly known quantity and with the right sampling and manipulation, the profits can be determined. (more) 

Freeing the Toxic Handlers

It has been over a decade since the concept of the toxic handler has been researched and written about, and yet it still remains a major problem that corporations and companies of all sizes need to deal with and often ignore to their detriment. The toxic handler is someone in an organization that puts themselves out to help the people around them. They often do double duty, (more)
