“I don’t like the looks of this. Seeing as how crazy and scattered
entrepreneurs have beaten the crap out of the monoliths over the last 44
years in almost every situation, I don’t like the situation. … The actual terms of engagement work against
us. For some time, it’s going to be ugly.”
Rich Karlgaard, Publisher, Forbes

“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

“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.”

The New Economy …
Shout goodbye to “command and control”!
Shout goodbye to hierarchy!
Shout goodbye to “knowing one’s place”!

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

ignorant antagonist who has never had a sword in his hand before; he doesn’t do

ought not to do and often it catches the expert out and ends him on the spot.”

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

“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

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.

“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.”

Leaders-Teachers Do Not “Transform People”!
Instead leaders-mentors-teachers (1) provide a context which is marked by (2) access to a luxuriant portfolio of meaningful opportunities (projects) which
(3) allow people to fully (and safely, mostly—caveat: “they”
don’t engage unless they’re “mad about something”) express their innate curiosity and (4) engage in a vigorous
discovery voyage (alone and in small teams, assisted by an
extensive self-constructed network) by which those people (5) go to-create places they (and their mentors-teachers-
leaders) had never dreamed existed—and then the leaders-mentors-teachers (6) applaud like hell, stage
“photo-ops,” and ring the church bells 100 times to commemorate the bravery of their
“followers’ ” explorations!

Duct Tape Rules!
“Andrew Higgins, who built landing craft in WWII, refused to hire graduates of
engineering schools. He believed that they only teach you what you can’t do in engineering
school. He started off with 20 employees, and by the middle of the war had 30,000 working for him. He turned out 20,000 landing craft. D.D.
Eisenhower told me, ‘Andrew Higgins won the war for us. He did it without engineers.’ ”

“If Microsoft is good at anything, it’s avoiding the trap of worrying about criticism. Microsoft fails constantly.
They’re eviscerated in public for lousy

something good enough. Then they leverage the power they’ve gained in
other markets to enforce their standard.”

“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.”

“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.”

“It was much later that I realized Dad’s secret. He gained respect by giving it. He
talked and listened to the fourth-grade kids in Spring Valley who shined shoes the same way he talked and listened to a
bishop or a college president. He was seriously interested in who you were and what you had to say.”
Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot, Respect

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

45. Leaders Seed & Pursue &
Recognize (Weird) “Demos.”
![Page 244: 2001 AME Annual Conference We Are in a Brawl with No Rules! Tom Peters/10.10.2001](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697c02e1a28abf838cda49a/html5/thumbnails/244.jpg)
Leaders aimed on changing their
world identify palpable heroes, who executed palpable projects—they
point to these people and say to the masses, “See, here it is, done by one of your own.” (And then they
“deep-dip” a few of those heroes to demo their seriousness.)

Individuals (would-be leaders) cannot engage in a
liberating mutual discovery process unless they are comfortable with their own skin. (“Leaders” who are not comfortable with themselves become petty
control freaks.)
