Wireless Wonders! “A consumer scenario: Snap digital pictures of your daughter’s soccer game; when you get back to your car – or even after each shot is snapped, the pictures are uploaded to an Internet server. The server processes, catalogs and archives the shots, and distributes appropriate versions to the TV sets of all the friends and family members on your list, updates the slideshow in grandma’s wireless digital frame, adds them to your digital wallet or PDA, makes a new album on your photo-sharing site, and has a set of prints made and delivered to you the next day.” Future Image

John Roth’s “Rules” [Nortel] 1. Our strategies must be tied to leading-edge customers on the attack. 2. Time cannot be sacrificed for better quality, lower cost, or even better decisions. 3. It doesn’t matter whether you develop or acquire leading technology. Our job is to provide the technology and products our customers need. 4. Success is achieved by leading change, not waiting for it. 5. We are paranoid about our leadership – willing to cannibalize our own products to maintain our edge.

“When asked to name just one big merger that had lived up to expectations, Leon Cooperman, former cochairman of Goldman Sachs’ Investment Policy Committee, answered: I’m sure there are success stories out there, but at this moment I draw a blank.” Mark Sirower, The Synergy Trap
20
“Acquisitions are about buying market share. Our challenge is to create markets. There is a big difference.” Peter Job, CEO, Reuters
21
“Our ideal acquisition is a small startup that has a great technology product on the drawing board that is going to come out in six to twelve months. We buy the engineers and the next generation product. …” John Chambers, Cisco
22
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]

R.D.A. Rate: 15%?, 25%? Therefore: Formal “Investment Strategy”/ R.I.P.
57
“You must realize that how you invest your human capital matters as much as how you invest your financial capital. Its rate of return determines your future options. Take a job for what it teaches you, not for what it pays. Instead of a potential employer asking, ‘Where do you see yourself in 5 years?’ you’ll ask, ‘If I invest my mental assets with you for 5 years, how much will they appreciate? How much will my portfolio of career options grow?’ ” Stan Davis & Christopher Meyer, futureWEALTH

The Case

“When land was the productive asset, nations battled over it. The same is happening now for talented people.” Stan Davis & Christopher Meyer, futureWEALTH
64
“We have transitioned from an asset-based strategy to a talent-based strategy.” Jeff Skilling, COO, Enron
65
The Talent Ten
66
1. Obsession P.O.T.* = All Consuming *Pursuit of Talent

3. Performance Up or out!
71
“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)
72
Message: Some people are better than other people. Some people are a helluva lot better than other people.
73
4. Pay Fork Over!
74
“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)
75
“We value engineers like professional athletes. We value great people at 10 times an average person in their function.” Jerry Yang, Yahoo

77
What gets measured gets done. What gets paid for gets done more. What gets paid a lot for gets done a lot more.
78
5. Youth Grovel Before the Young!
79
“Why focus on these late teens and twenty- somethings? Because they are the first young who are both in a position to change the world, and are actually doing so. … For the first time in history, children are more comfortable, knowledgeable and literate than their parents about an innovation central to society. … The Internet has triggered the first industrial revolution in history to be led by the young.” The Economist [12/2000]
80
6. Diversity Mess Rules!
81
“Where do good new ideas come from? That’s simple! From differences. Creativity comes from unlikely juxtapositions. The best way to maximize differences is to mix ages, cultures and disciplines.” Nicholas Negroponte
82
“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
83
7. Women Born to Lead!
84
“AS LEADERS, WOMEN RULE: New Studies find that female managers outshine their male counterparts in almost every measure” Title, Special Report, Business Week, 11.20.00
85
Women and new- economy management …
86
The New Economy … Shout goodbye to “command and control”! Shout goodbye to hierarchy! Shout goodbye to “knowing one’s place”!
87
“Guys want to put everybody in their hierarchical place. Like, should I have more respect for you, or are you somebody that’s south of me?” Paul Biondi, Mercer Consultants [from It’s Not Business, It’s Personal, Ronna Lichtenberg]
88
Women’s Stuff = New Economy Match Improv skills Relationship-centric Less “rank consciousness” Self determined Trust sensitive Intuitive Natural “empowerment freaks” [less threatened by strong people] Intrinsic [motivation] > Extrinsic
89
“TAKE THIS QUICK QUIZ: Who manages more things at once? Who puts more effort into their appearance? Who usually takes care of the details? Who finds it easier to meet new people? Who asks more questions in a conversation? Who is a better listener? Who has more interest in communication skills? Who is more inclined to get involved? Who encourages harmony and agreement? Who has better intuition? Who works with a longer ‘to do’ list? Who enjoys a recap to the day’s events? Who is better at keeping in touch with others?” Source: Selling Is a Woman’s Game: 15 Powerful Reasons Why Women Can Outsell Men, Nicki Joy & Susan Kane-Benson

“Investors are looking more and more for a relationship with their financial advisers. They want someone they can trust, someone who listens. In my experience, in general, women may be better at these relationship-building skills than are men.” Hardwick Simmons, CEO, Prudential Securities
91
“Boys are trained in a way that will make them irrelevant.” Phil Slater
92
It’s Girls, Stupid! 1996: 8.4M women, 6.7M men in college (est: 9.2 to 6.9 in 2007); more women than men in high-level math and science courses More girls in student govt., honor societies; girls read more books, outperform boys in artistic and musical ability, study abroad in higher numbers Boys do rule: crime, alcohol, drugs, failure to do homework (4:1) Source: The Atlantic Monthly (May2000)

Read This! “Winning the Talent War for Women: Sometimes It Takes a Revolution” Douglas McCracken, HBR [11-12/2000]
94
“Deloitte was doing a great job of hiring high- performing women; in fact, women often earned higher performance ratings than men in their first years with the firm. Yet the percentage of women decreased with step up the career ladder. … Most women weren’t leaving to raise families; they had weighed their options in Deloitte’s male- dominated culture and found them wanting. Many, dissatisfied with a culture they perceived as endemic to professional service firms, switched professions.” Douglas McCracken, “Winning the Talent War for Women” [HBR]
95
“The process of assigning plum accounts was largely unexamined. … Male partners made assumptions: ‘I wouldn’t put her on that kind of company because it’s a tough manufacturing environment.’ ‘That client is difficult to deal with.’ ‘Travel puts too much pressure on women.’ ” Douglas McCracken, “Winning the Talent War for Women” [HBR]
96
Okay, you think I’ve gone tooooo far. How about this: DO ANY OF YOU SUFFER FROM TOO MUCH TALENT?

THE PROCESS Summary
129
Boss-free “Selling” of a WOW! Idea Get a Zany [WOW!] Idea/ Shop it with a coupla good pals. Surface [using your network] a list of [operational] folks who might be interested in playing. Call, visit and choose a coupla prospects. Engage the prospects [they must “own” “it”]. Concoct a rough plan and a prototype schedule. Move forward [Ready. Fire! Aim.]. Keep on recruitin’. Get the Test Customer to recruit some buddies for Round #2 tests [Meanwhile Customer #1 expands program]
130
Boss Advice I: The “Poster Kids”/ “End Run”/“Skunks” Strategy Chat up a cross-section of the Org. Develop a tentative list of Pioneers/“Skunks.” Hang with those Skunks, discover their “Stuff I’ve long wanted to do” Begin to showcase their developing results [with your public stamp of approval]. Dip deep[ish] and early - promote a Super Skunk into the [New] Establishment. Incorporate the Skunks’ work into your Vision Chatter/Welcome ALL aboard!
131
Boss Advice II: Starting the “Hmmmmm?” Buzz “Event Marketing”: Idea Faire/Internal “Tradeshow”/Bragfest. Or: Seminar Series, with “strange” outsiders/insiders (not the usual suspects) “Play Fund,” around a topic of importance. Small-ish grants. Easy application process. Short-ish timeframes. (Gerstner @ American Express re AI.) “Scholarships” (not the usual suspects). Sabbatical funds (contest?). Placement on customer or supplier project teams (not the usual suspects).
132
Boss Advice III: The “Flypaper Strategy” Don’t try to “change the culture” Create flypaper which attracts mavericks & pirates Let the new culture (which is lurking around you!) find you Publicize, at the appropriate moment, the New Hall of Fame; help the new culture adherents create & nurture community.

160
Anne Busquet/ American Express Not: “Age of the Internet” Is: “Age of Customer Control”
161
RADICAL STRATEGIES REQUIRED
162
“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]
163
WebWorld = Everything Web as a way to run your business’s innards Web 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 Life Web = Everything (P.D. to after-sales) Web forces you to focus on what you do best Web as entrée, at any size, to World’s Best at Everything as next door neighbor
164
Message: eCommerce is not a technology play! It is a relationship, partnership, organizational and communications play, made possible by new technologies.
165
Message: There is no such thing as an effective B2B or Internet-supply chain strategy in a low-trust, bottlenecked- communication, six-layer organization.
166
“Ebusiness is about rebuilding the organization from the ground up. Most companies today are not built to exploit the Internet. Their business processes, their approvals, their hierarchies, the number of people they employ … all of that is wrong for running an ebusiness.” Ray Lane, Kleiner Perkins

??????? Impact #1: Healthcare
175
“It may be the most far-reaching evolution of them all: the metamorphosis of passive patient into consumer – and well-informed, assertive consumer at that. The defining axiom of traditional medicine – ‘doctor’s orders’ is being turned on its head. These days it’s the patients who are armed, the doctors who must get wired to keep nimble.” Richard Firstman, “Heal Thyself,” On Magazine (04.01)
176
“We’re in the Internet age, and the average patient can’t email their doctor.” Donald Berwick, Harvard Med School

Brand Outside Strategy 3 : Design Matters!
183
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
184
“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
185
“What’s imperative is the creation of a style that becomes a culture linking you to the community. You can only do that through good design.” – Anita Roddick Source: Design Council [UK]
186
Unconventional [Design] Messages Not about... “Lumpy Objects”! Not about... $79,000 objects
187
The I.D. [International Design] Forty* Airstream … Alfred A. Knopf … Apple Computer … Amazon.com … Bloomberg … Caterpillar … CNN … Disney … FedEx … Gillette … IBM … Martha Stewart … New Balance … Nickelodeon … Patagonia … The New York Yankees … 3M … Etc. * List No. 1, 1999
188
Design Transforms even the [Biggest] Corporations! TARGET … “the champion of America’s new design democracy” (Time) “Marketer of the Year 2000” (Advertising Age)
189
Design “is” … WHAT & WHY I LOVE. LOVE.
190
I LOVE my ZYLISS Garlic Peeler!
191
Design “is” … WHY I GET MAD. MAD.
192
Wanted: Dead [preferably] or Alive: THE DESIGNER OF MY RADIO SHACK PHONE. Major Reward!
193
Design is never neutral.
194
Hypothesis: DESIGN is the principal difference between love and hate!
195
THE BASE CASE: I am a design fanatic. Personally, though not “artistic,” I’m a cool-stuff guy. I love what I love and I hate what I hate. [Openly.] But it goes [much] further, far beyond the personal. Design has become a professional obsession. I – SIMPLY – BELIEVE THAT DESIGN PER SE IS THE PRINCIPAL REASON FOR EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT [or detachment] RELATIVE TO A PRODUCT OR SERVICE OR EXPERIENCE. Design, as I see it, is arguably the #1 determinant of whether a product-service-experience stands out … or doesn’t. Furthermore, it’s “one of those things” … that damn few companies put – consistently – on the front burner.
196
Message: “Services” are Not Intangible! You “give off” hundreds of design cues … daily! YOU ARE A DESIGNER!
197
First Steps: “Beauty Contest”! Select one form/document: invoice, air bill, sick leave policy, customer returns- claim form Rate the selected doc on a scale of 1 to 10 [1 = Bureaucratica Obscuranta/ Sucks; 10 = Work of Art] on three dimensions: Beauty, Grace, Clarity Re-invent! Repeat, with a new selection, every 15 working days.
198
Design Rules! [Literally] Palm Beach County’s U.C.B. * [*Utterly Confusing Ballot]
199
Message: Design is the wellspring of branding. Great design takes guts and is “soul deep.”
200
Brand Outside Strategy 4 : It’s the Experience!
201
“ 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
202
“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
203
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
204
“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.” Freeman Thomas, co-designer VW Beetle; designer Audi TT
205
Hmmmm(?): “Only” Words … Story Adventure Smile Focus Plot Passion
206
Plot Williams Sonoma = 5 [was 10] Crate & Barrel = 8 Sharper Image = 9+ Smith & Hawken = 8+ Garnet Hill = 9 L.L. Bean = 4 [was 9+] Colonial Williamsburg = ?

FemaleThink/ Popcorn “Men and women don’t think the same way, don’t communicate the same way, don’t buy for the same reasons.” “He simply wants the transaction to take place. She’s interested in creating a relationship. Every place women go, they make connections.”Popcorn
224
“Men seem like loose cannons. Men always move faster through a store’s aisles. Men spend less time looking. They usually don’t like asking where things are. You’ll see a man move impatiently through a store to the section he wants, pick something up, and then, almost abruptly he’s ready to buy. … For a man, ignoring the price tag is almost a sign of virility.” Paco Underhill, Why We Buy* (*Buy this book!) Paco Underhill
225
Women and Healthcare Women are … more dissatisfied, frustrated by the way they are treated and spoken down to by physicians, seek more information, are more pressed for time … and make 75% of health care decisions and control 2/3 of health care $$$$ [and constitute 2/3 of health care employees]. Source: Patricia Braus, Marketing Healthcare to Women
226
Women and Financial Advisors Women want … a plan, to be listened to, to be taken seriously, to read about it, to think about it. Women do not want … an in-your-face sales pitch Source: Kathleen Boyle, Wheat Boyle Butcher Singer

233
“Women speak and hear a language of connection and intimacy, and men speak and hear a language of status and independence. Men communicate to obtain information,establish their status, and show independence. Women communicate to create relationships, encourage interaction, and exchange feelings.” Judy Rosener, America’s Competitive Secret Judy Rosener

27 March 2000: email to TP from Shelley Rae Norbeck “I make 1/3 rd more money than my husband does. I have as much financial ‘pull’ in the relationship as he does. I’d say this is also true of most of my women friends. Someone should wake up, smell the coffee and kiss our asses long enough to sell us something! We have money to spend and nobody wants it!”
243
STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY: I am a businessperson. An analyst. A pragmatist. The enormous social good of increased women’s power is clear to me; but it is not my bailiwick. My “game” is haranguing business leaders about my fact-based conviction that women’s increasing power – leadership skills and purchasing power – is the strongest and most dynamic force at work in the American economy today. Dare I say it as a long-time Palo Altan … THIS IS EVEN BIGGER THAN THE INTERNET! Tom Peters

Brand Outside Strategy 6 : BRAND POWER!
258
“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
259
“Most companies tend to equate branding with the company’s marketing. Design a new marketing campaign and, voila, you’re on course. They are wrong. The task is much bigger. It is about fulfilling our potential … not about a new logo, no matter how clever. WHAT IS MY MISSION IN LIFE? WHAT DO I WANT TO CONVEY TO PEOPLE? HOW DO I MAKE SURE THAT WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER THE WORLD IS ACTUALLY UNIQUE? The brand has to give of itself, the company has to give of itself, the management has to give of itself. To put it bluntly, it is a matter of whether – or not – you want to be … UNIQUE … NOW.” Jesper Kunde, A Unique Moment
260
“You can’t survive floating on the tide, assessing the competition, conducting surveys to find out what your customers want right now. What do you want? What do you want to tell the world in the future? What does your company have that will enrich the world? You must believe in that ‘it’ strongly enough to become unique at what you do.” Jesper Kunde, A Unique Moment
261
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 MaineTom’s of Maine
262
“WHO ARE YOU [these days] ?” TP to Client
263
Jesper Kunde’s Challenge: All business processes should be aligned with the Brand/Value Promise. Think … Brand Driven Systems!
264
“Brand Promise” Exercise: (1) Who Are WE? (1 page, then 25 words.) (2) List three ways in which we are UNIQUE … to our Clients. (3) Who are THEY (competitors) ? (ID, 25 words.) (4) List 3 distinct “us”/“them” differences. (5) Try “results” on your teammates. (6) Try ’em on a friendly Client. (7) Big Enchilada: Try ’em on a skeptical Client!
265
T.T.D./Calling the Corporate Shrink! “Organizational Psychotherapy”/ WHO WE ARE!
266
Message: Branding is personal. Branding is integrity. Branding is consistency. Branding is fresh. Branding is what I care about and why it matters. Branding is the answer to WHO ARE WE AND WHY ARE WE HERE. Branding can’t be faked. Branding is a systemic, 24/7, all departments, all hands affair.
267
Part I: Brand Inside Part 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
270
“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” Gandhi
271
“Leaders achieve their effectiveness chiefly through the stories they relate. In addition to communicating stories, leaders embody those stories.” Howard Gardner, Leading Minds: An Anatomy of Leadership
272
“Stories of identity – narratives that help individuals think about and feel who they are, where they come from, and where they are headed – constitute the single most powerful weapon in the leader’s arsenal.” Howard Gardner, Leading Minds: An Anatomy of Leadership
273
“Create a Cause, not a ‘business.’ ” Gary Hamel, Fortune (06.00), on re-inventing a company (Exemplar #1: Charles Schwab)
274
“A leader is a dealer in hope.” Napoleon
275
Brand Leadership: ENTHUSIASM RULES! Ben Zander: “ I am a dispenser of enthusiasm.”
276
Message: Leadership is all about love! [Passion, Enthusiasms, Appetite for Life, Engagement, Commitment, Great Causes & Determination to Make a Damn Difference, Shared Adventures, Bizarre Failures, Growth, Insatiable Appetite for Change.] [Otherwise, why bother?
