Brand = Talent.

“The leaders of Great Groups love talent and know where to find it. They revel in the talent of others.” Warren Bennis & Patricia Ward Biederman, Organizing Genius

“Our business needs a massive transfusion of talent, and talent, I believe, is most likely to be found among non-conformists, dissenters and rebels.” David Ogilvy

Our Mission To develop and manage talent; to apply that talent, throughout the world, for the benefit of clients; to do so in partnership; to do so with profit. WPP

“ Ninety percent of what we call ‘management’ consists of making it difficult for people to get things done.” – P.D.

“I don’t know.”

“My ancestors were printers in Amsterdam from 1510 or so until 1750, and during that entire time they didn’t have to learn anything new.” Peter Drucker, Business 2.0 ( )

“Knowledge becomes obsolete incredibly fast. The continuing professional education of adults is the No. 1 industry in the next 30 years … mostly on line.” Peter Drucker, Business 2.0 (22August2000)

I AM A TALENT FANATIC. I STACK UP WITH THE BEST FOOTBALL COACHES. OUR TALENT IS ON QUESTS TO RE-IMAGINE TOMORROW. THE TALENT I RECRUIT AND DEVELOP IS MY PREMIER LEGACY. (Scale of 1 to 10?)

The “metabolism” of enterprise- competition-invention has speeded up remarkably. It is the leader’s mission to increase—and manage—the Metabolic Rate of her or his organization.

“We are in a brawl with no rules.” Paul Allaire

The Kotler Doctrine: : R.A.F. (Ready.Aim.Fire.) : R.F.A. (Ready.Fire!Aim.) 1995-????: F.F.F. (Fire!Fire!Fire!)

The Internet and other associated technologies are changing … everything. The leader must take direct charge of the full-bore implementation of the new technologies. The wise leader is his own CIO.

“ Our entire facility is digital. No paper, no film, no medical records. Nothing. And it’s all integrated—from the lab to X-ray to records to physician order entry. Patients don’t have to wait for anything. The information from the physician’s office is in registration and vice versa. The referring physician is immediately sent an telling him his patient has shown up. … It’s wireless in-house. We have 800 notebook computers that are wireless. Physicians can walk around with a computer that’s pre-programmed. If the physician wants, we’ll go out and wire their house so they can sit on the couch and connect to the network. They can review a chart from 100 miles away.” — David Veillette, CEO, Indiana Heart Hospital (HealthLeaders/ )

“Dawn Meyerreicks, CTO of the Defense Information Systems Agency, made one of the most fateful military calls of the 21 st century. After 9/11 … her office quickly leased all the available transponders covering Central Asia. The implications should change everything about U.S. military thinking in the years ahead. “The U.S. Air Force had kicked off its fight against the Taliban with an ineffective bombing campaign, and Washington was anguishing over whether to send in a few Army divisions. Donald Rumsfeld told Gen. Tommy Franks to give the initiative to 250 Special Forces already on the ground. They used satellite phones, Predator surveillance drones, and GPS- and laser-based targeting systems to make the air strikes brutally effective. “In effect, they ‘Napsterized’ the battlefield by cutting out the middlemen (much of the military’s command and control) and working directly with the real players. … The data came in so fast that HQ revised operating procedures to allow intelligence analysts and attack planners to work directly together. Their favorite tool, incidentally, was instant messaging over a secure network.”—Ned Desmond/“Broadband’s New Killer App”/Business 2.0/ OCT2002

“The mechanical speed of combat vehicles has not increased since Rommel’s day, so the difference is all in the operational speed, faster communications and faster decisions.” —Edward Luttwak, on the unprecedented pace of the move toward Baghdad

“There’s 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

I’net … … allows you to dream dreams you could never have dreamed before!

TECHNOLOGY CHANGES EVERYTHING. I AM A TRUE BELIEVER. NOW IS THE MOMENT FOR INSANELY BOLD INVESTMENT AND TOTAL CORPORATE RE-IMAGINATION. (Scale of 1 to 10?)

The “corporate metabolism” cannot be speeded up and the new technologies cannot be fully exploited unless all barriers to X-functional communication (throughout the entire supply and demand chain) are destroyed. The leader must lead—get directly involved in the minutiae of this STRATEGIC task.

“The organizations we created have become tyrants. They have taken control, holding us fettered, creating barriers that hinder rather than help our businesses. The lines that we drew on our neat organizational diagrams have turned into walls that no one can scale or penetrate or even peer over.” —Frank Lekanne Deprez & René Tissen, Zero Space: Moving Beyond Organizational Limits.

“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

“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

BARRIERS MUST GO. PERIOD. I AM INTIMATELY INVOLVED WITH THE GRUBBY DETAILS OF TOTAL PROCESS RE-DESIGN. WE WILL NOT PARTNER WITH THOSE THAT DON’T “GET IT.” (Scale of 1 t0 10?)

The new competitive realities demand that we turn our backs on the ones who brung us. Every leader needs a FORMAL “forgetting strategy.”

“It is generally much easier to kill an organization than change it substantially.” Kevin Kelly, Out of Control

Forbes100 from 1917 to 1987: 39 members of the Class of ’17 were alive in ’87; 18 in ’87 F100; 18 F100 “survivors” underperformed the market by 20%; just 2 (2%), GE & Kodak, outperformed the market 1917 to S&P 500 from 1957 to 1997: 74 members of the Class of ’57 were alive in ’97; 12 (2.4%) of 500 outperformed the market from 1957 to Source: Dick Foster & Sarah Kaplan, Creative Destruction: Why Companies That Are Built to Last Underperform the Market

“FORGET IT” IS MY MISSION AND MANTRA. WE MUST SEVER MANY/MOST OF OUR TIES TO THE PAST … AND IMAGINE COMPLETELY NEW WORLDS. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT “FORGETTING” IS MY PASSION. (Scale of 1 to 10?)

The Leadership11 Metaphysical Management

A brand new value proposition is emerging. We are moving toward more and more ethereal “products” and “services.” The leader must oversee this process—become the Metaphysician-in-Chief.

“While everything may be better, it is also increasingly the same.” Paul Goldberger on retail, “The Sameness of Things,” The New York Times

“The ‘surplus society’ has a surplus of similar companies, employing similar people, with similar educational backgrounds, coming up with similar ideas, producing similar things, with similar prices and similar quality.” Kjell Nordström and Jonas Ridderstråle, Funky Business

“Companies have defined so much ‘best practice’ that they are now more or less identical.” Jesper Kunde, Unique Now... or Never

“We make over three new product announcements a day. Can you remember them? Our customers can’t!” Carly Fiorina

“UPS wants to take over the sweet spot in the endless loop of goods, information and capital that all the packages [it moves] represent.” ecompany.com/06.01 (E.g., UPS Logistics manages the logistics of 4.5M Ford vehicles, from 21 mfg. sites to 6,000 NA dealers)

DREAM: “A dream is a complete moment in the life of a client. Important experiences that tempt the client to commit substantial resources. The essence of the desires of the consumer. The opportunity to help clients become what they want to be.” —Gian Luigi Longinotti-Buitoni

“No longer are we only an insurance provider. Today, we also offer our customers the products and services that help them achieve their dreams, whether it’s financial security, buying a car, paying for home repairs, or even taking a dream vacation.” —Martin Feinstein, CEO, Farmers Group

“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

“Most executives have no idea how to add value to a market in the metaphysical world. But that is what the market will cry out for in the future. There is no lack of ‘physical’ products to choose between.” Jesper Kunde, Unique Now... or Never [on the excellence of Nokia, Nike, Lego, Virgin et al.]

The Leadership11 Portfolio Management

We must think of the “rosters” of talent, customers, suppliers, leader, projects, initiatives—and the Board— in terms of portfolios. I.e.: Is our portfolio as strange as these strange times demand? The leader is a “V.C.” (venture capitalist) creating and managing several strategically vital portfolios.

“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.” Clayton Christensen, The Innovator’s Dilemma

CUSTOMERS: “Future- defining customers may account for only 2% to 3% of your total, but they represent a crucial window on the future.” Adrian Slywotzky, Mercer Consultants

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.” Mark Twain

“To grow, companies need to break out of a vicious cycle of competitive benchmarking and imitation.” —W. Chan Kim & Renée Mauborgne, “”Think for Yourself —Stop Copying a Rival,” Financial Times/

“How do dominant companies lose there position? Two-thirds of the time, they pick the wrong competitor to worry about.” —Don Listwin, CEO, Openware Systems/WSJ/ (commenting on Nokia)

The Leadership11 Failure Management

Screwing up is more important than ever in strange times. The screw-up rate is the best indicator of sufficiently rapid adaptation. The leader must “manage” the screw-up process—literally.

“Wealth in this new regime flows directly from innovation, not optimization. That is, wealth is not gained by perfecting the known, but by imperfectly seizing the unknown.” Kevin Kelly, New Rules for the New Economy

“Perfection is achieved only by institutions on the point of collapse.” — C. Northcote Parkinson

People “sign up” for causes worth pursuing. Turning the enterprise into a cause-worth-committing-to is a primary task of the leader.

G.H.: “Create a ‘cause,’ not a ‘business.’ ”

“I never, ever thought of myself as a businessman. I was interested in creating things I would be proud of.” —Richard Branson

HTSH: Engage! Commit! Engage! Try! Fail! Get up! Try again! Fail again! Try again! But never, ever stop moving on! Progress for humanity is engendered by those who join and savor the fray by giving one hundred percent of themselves to their dreams! Not by those timid souls who remain glued to the sidelines, stifled by tradition, and fearful of losing face or giving offense to the reigning authorities. Key words: Commit! Engage! Try! Fail! Persist!

HTSH: You Must Care Make the time each day to offer an expression of appreciation to just one of your fellow human beings. It is the accumulation of such “small” kindnesses and acts of recognition that add up to a life worth having been lived. In short … you must care. You must wear your passion and compassion on your sleeve, and attend assiduously to the moment. It will not come ’round again. Key word: Care
