7. A desk is a dangerous place from which to watch world" John LeCarre
“Basic research is when I’m doing what I don’t know I’m doing.” Wernher Von Braun, German Scientist, in The Faber Book of Aphorisms, 1964
Don't get stuck behind desk or you'll lose total contact with your partner's world.
8. I have a dream" Martin Luther King
“ A creative person needs a certain amount of insecurity to maintain that fine edge. You don’t have any control over it.” Walter Egan, American rock musician.
Are you in sync with dreams, visions, innovations, creativity, expectations, perceptions, strategies and a host of other thoughts of your partner?
9. No organization functions in a vacuum" Leonnd Goodstein
“ It is explained that all relationships require a little give and take. This is untrue. Any partnership demands that we give and give and give and at last, as we flop into our grave exhausted, we are told that we didn’t give enough.” Quinten Crsip, Bristish writer, How To Become a Virgin 1981.
In a world of desensitization and dehumanizing of human contact you better have direct contact and understanding in person with your partner. The competition is vicious and evasive enough without creating feeling of isolation with in partner
10. Timing has a lot to do with outcome of a rain dance" unknown
“ Time is a circus always packing up and moving away.” Ben Hecht, American screenwriter.
We have heard comment location, location, location. There's also concept of timing and timing. This is critical in a global transitional exploding world of change. Change is so dramatic and quick that strategic partnerships must be in total command and responsive mode at a moment's notice.
If this criteria frightens you this is first positive step towards successful partnerships with yourself.
"Most of us live in a cage and if we are lucky we can reach out beyond bars and touch somebody" Marcus Aurelius
How did this stimulate a business? Continuous division and multiplication of meanings stimulates innovation. How? Instead of sticking to one definition given to a word you allow expansion in your thinking and stimulate entrepreneurial creativity within you.
One company grew and divided rapidly used this technique which allowed each separate division to become ultimately independent. To set it’s own business format instead of one prescribed formula, used by parent company. After all one formula for success does not fit everything.
A second concept of smallness was to allow room for rapid advancement and managerial growth, further stimulating enterprise.
A third concept was keep departments small and sharpened to one direction and activity or product. This allowed for closer relationships with management, workers and customers, instead of a massive over burdened corporation.
Then finally a fourth premise was distribution of authority. Instead of having to go to a hierarchy as in some corporations it is was only confined to this separate company. This avoided inter-company factions and competition since it was a separate entity free to compete in an open market, thus no inter-departmental or division rivalry or even envy. The interesting point is when this separate company expanded then a new cell company was formed from main component, thus continuous process of cell division.
