“Good management was the most powerful reason [leading firms] failed to stay atop their industries. Precisely because these firms
listened to their customers, invested aggressively in technologies that would provide their customers more
and better products of the sort they wanted, and because they carefully studied market trends and
systematically allocated investment capital to innovations that promised the best returns, they lost
their positions of leadership.”

“The sun is setting on the Information Society—even before we have fully adjusted to its demands as individuals and as
companies. We have lived as hunters and as farmers, we have worked in factories and now we live in an information-based society whose icon is the computer. We stand facing the fifth kind of society: the Dream Society. … The Dream Society is emerging this very instant—the shape of the future is visible today. Right now is the time for decisions—before the major
portion of consumer purchases are made for emotional, nonmaterialistic reasons. Future products will have to appeal to our hearts, not to our heads. Now is the time to add emotional
value to products and services.” —Rolf Jensen/The Dream Society:How the Coming Shift from Information to Imagination Will Transform Your Business

“We don’t have a good language to talk about this kind of thing. In most people’s

THE BASE CASE: I am a design fanatic. Though not “artistic,” I love “cool stuff.” 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 another “one of those things” that damn few companies put – consistently – on the
front burner.

“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.”

“As a hunter, a man needed vision that would allow him to zero in on targets in the distance … whereas a woman needed eyes
to allow a wide arc of vision so that she could monitor any predators sneaking up on the nest. This is why modern men can find their way effortlessly to a distant pub,
but can never find things in fridges, cupboards or drawers.”

“And even if they manage to get the age thing right, [Marti] Barletta says companies still tend to screw up in fairly predictable ways when they add women to the equation. Too often, their first impulse is to paint the
brand pink, lavishing their ads with flowers and bows, or, conversely, pandering with images of women
warriors and other cheesy clichés. In other cases they use language intended to be empathetic that come
across instead as borderline offensive. ‘One bank took out an ad saying, We recognize women’s special
needs,’ says Barletta. ‘No offense, but doesn’t that sound like the Special Olympics?’ ” —Fast Company/03.04

“Advertisers pay more to reach the kid because they think that once someone hits
middle age he’s too set in his ways to be
susceptible to advertising. … In fact, this notion of impressionable kids

Women’s Strengths Match New Economy Imperatives: Link [rather than rank] workers;
favor interactive-collaborative leadership style [empowerment beats top-down decision making]; sustain fruitful collaborations; comfortable with sharing information; see redistribution of power
as victory, not surrender; favor multi-dimensional feedback; value technical & interpersonal skills, individual & group contributions equally; readily accept ambiguity; honor intuition as well as pure
“rationality”; inherently flexible; appreciate cultural diversity.

“My wife and I went to a [kindergarten] parent-teacher conference and were informed that our budding
refrigerator artist, Christopher, would be receiving a grade of Unsatisfactory in art. We were shocked. How could any child—let alone our child—receive a poor
grade in art at such a young age? His teacher informed us that he had refused to color within the lines, which was a
state requirement for demonstrating ‘grade-level motor
skills.’ ”Jordan Ayan, AHA!

“How many artists are there in the room? Would you please raise your hands. FIRST GRADE: En masse the children leapt from their seats, arms waving. Every child was an artist. SECOND
GRADE: About half the kids raised their hands, shoulder high, no higher. The hands were still. THIRD GRADE: At best, 10 kids out
of 30 would raise a hand, tentatively, self-consciously. By the time I reached SIXTH GRADE, no more than one or two kids
raised their hands, and then ever so slightly, betraying a fear of being identified by the group as a ‘closet artist.’ The point is:
Every school I visited was participating in the suppression of creative genius.”

Ye gads: “Thomas Stanley has not only found no correlation between success in school and an
ability to accumulate wealth, he’s actually found a negative correlation. ‘It seems that school-
related evaluations are poor predictors of economic success,’ Stanley concluded. What did predict success was a willingness to take risks.
Yet the success-failure standards of most schools penalized risk takers. Most educational
systems reward those who play it safe. As a result, those who do well in school find it hard to
take risks later on.”Richard Farson & Ralph Keyes, Whoever Makes the Most Mistakes Wins

“Chivalry is dead. The new code of conduct is an active strategy of disrupting the status quo
to create an unsustainable series of competitive advantages. This is not an age of defensive
castles, moats and armor. It is rather an age of cunning, speed and surprise. It may be hard for some to hang up the chain mail of ‘sustainable
advantage’ after so many battles. But hypercompetition, a state in which sustainable advantages are no longer possible, is now the
only level of competition.”

“HAVE MBAs KILLED OFF MARKETING? Prof Rajeev Batra says: ‘What these times call for is more creative
and breakthrough reengineering of product and service benefits, but we don’t train people to think like that.’ The way marketing is
taught across business schools is far too analytical and data-driven. ‘We’ve taken away the emphasis on creativity and big ideas that characterize real marketing breakthroughs.’ In India there is an added problem: most senior marketing jobs have been traditionally dominated by MBAs. Santosh Desai, vice
president, McCann Erickson, an MBA himself, believes in India engineer-MBAs, armed with this Lego-like approach, tend to reduce marketing into neat components. ‘This reductionist
thinking runs counter to the idea that great brands must have a core, unifying idea.’ ”—Businessworld/04Nov2002/“Why Is
Marketing Not Working?”

COMPETITORS: “The best swordsman in the world doesn’t need to fear
the second best swordsman in the world; no, the person for him to be afraid of is some ignorant antagonist who has never had a
sword in his hand before; he doesn’t do the thing he ought to do, and so the expert isn’t
prepared for him; he does the thing he ought not to do and often it catches the expert out and
ends him on the spot.”

WEIRD IDEAS THAT WORK: (1) Hire slow learners (of the organizational code). (1.5) Hire people who make you
uncomfortable, even those you dislike. (2) Hire people you (probably) don’t need. (3) Use job interviews to get ideas, not
to screen candidates. (4) Encourage people to ignore and defy superiors and peers. (5) Find some happy people and get them to fight. (6) Reward success and failure, punish inaction.
(7) Decide to do something that will probably fail, then convince yourself and everyone else that success is certain. (8) Think of
some ridiculous, impractical things to do, then do them. (9) Avoid, distract, and bore customers, critics, and anyone who just wants to talk about money. (10) Don’t try to learn anything from people who seem to have solved the problems you face.
(11) Forget the past, particularly your company’s success.
