“I feel betrayed. I bought stock in a company that was going to change
the world. I didn’t buy a big, fat, stupid conglomerate. And now I’ve
got one.”Alan Towers, consultant, quoted in Business Week
[BW: “The irony is that AOL Time Warner is a vertically integrated conglomerate. Not exactly the sort of nimble
competitor that will thrive in cyberspace.”]

“The model is about partial acquisitions and ownerships that then form a whole. Each part has to have value separately, be able to raise capital separately, and
motivate employees separately. Corporations of the past never had that.”
Flip Filipowski, divine interVentures (Red Herring)

“The brick and mortars will die, no matter what. … So you have to take
your best employees and best businesses and spin them off and just own 40 percent of everything
that’s left. Do that and you survive.”

“But what if [former head of strategic planner at Royal Dutch Shell] Arie de Geus is wrong in
suggesting, in The Living Company, that firms should aspire to live forever? Greatness is
fleeting and, for corporations, it will become ever more fleeting. The ultimate aim of a
business organization, an artist, an athlete or a stockbroker may be to explode in a dramatic
frenzy of value creation during a short space of time, rather than to live forever.”
Kjell Nordstrom and Jonas Ridderstrale, Funky Business

Culture of Prototyping
“Effective prototyping may be the most valuable core
competence an innovative organization can hope to
have.”
Michael Schrage

“You can’t be a serious innovator unless and until you are ready,
willing and able to seriously play. ‘Serious play’ is not an oxymoron;
it is the essence of innovation.”
Michael Schrage, Serious Play

Prototyper’s Laws
Define a small, practical test of something on a page or less of text. Now.
Gather “found” materials … on the [very] cheap.Find a/one partner-“customer” who’ll provide a
test site.Set a very tight deadline of about 5 days for the
next concrete step.Conduct the test! Debrief A.S.A.P.
Set the next test date. Now. [No more than 5 days hence.]

“The fundamental unit of the new economy is not the corporation, but the individual. Tasks aren’t assigned and controlled through a stable chain of command but are carried out autonomously by
independent contractors - e-lancers - who join together in fluid and temporary networks to sell goods and services. When the job is done, the network dissolves and its members become independent again, circulating through the economy, seeking the next assignment.”
Thomas Malone and Robert Laubacher

“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.”

“In many industries traditionally dominated by men – the music business is an example – there is a traditional product
orientation. It has been our very male goal to lure you into a store and quickly consummate the relationship with the transfer of a 44-kilohertz, stereo, 16-bit recording that you never replace. That is the transaction-based, satiated push world of yesterday.
Such a product world is based on consummation. The consummated ‘relationship’ is disconnected, whereas the
stimulated relationship is highly connected. …
“The feminine view of the world is very different. Why discharge a relationship with the sale of an object or the delivery of a
package. … Our future is this feminization of marketing, where the true value of content is to stimulate, not satiate. [The future
of the Web] is the perfect seller/buyer relationship: always connected and sharing information. [A] sale starts, not ends, a
relationship.”

Object of Desire!
“Every now and then, a design comes along that radically changes the way we think about a particular object. Case in
point: the iMac. Suddenly, a computer is no longer an anonymous box. It is a
sculpture, an object of desire, something that you look at.”
Katherine McCoy, Michael McCoy, Illinois Institute of Technology

[Design as Soul
“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 that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or
service.”Steve Jobs]

“Branding is not a problem if you have the right mentality. You go to your team and you pin up a $200 Swiss Army Watch. Competing in the

“Consumers don’t simply buy products, they buy attitudes as well. When confronted with proliferation and diversity, choices become

“Corporate Religion is a completely new way of thinking about companies. Today, the product is still the main communication
highway in the company. When companies make the shift to selling solutions, brands and
attitudes, communicating the company’s attitudes and values becomes the decisive parameter for success. It demands that you
find out who you are as a company.”

“A Great Brand taps into emotions. Emotions drive most, if not all, of our decisions. A brand reaches out
with a powerful connecting experience. It’s an emotional connecting point that transcends the
product.
“A Great Brand is a story that’s never completely told. A brand is a metaphorical story that’s evolving all the
time. This connects with something very deep - a fundamental appreciation of mythology. Stories
create the emotional context people need to locate themselves in a larger experience.”

“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.”

“To succeed, we must stop being so goddamn normal.
In a winner-takes-all world, normal = nothing. People expect good stuff. They have become used to great value for money. And they can get that from almost all companies around the world. So, being great is no longer good enough. Customer satisfaction is not enough. To succeed, we have to surprise people. We have to attract and addict them. Attention is all. By focusing only on the hardcore aspects of
business, we risk becoming irrelevant. And trust us, irrelevancy is a much greater problem than inefficiency. The only thing
more difficult than learning to exploit the last taboo of emotion and imagination is learning to thrive without it. So, people and organizations of the world – come out. Or you will be
carried out.”

“If you want to be persuasive, you have to generate a high level of energy. It’s energy that makes you visible, that gives you
presence. I call it ‘performance energy,’ and it’s the basis of dynamic leadership.
There is nothing artificial about it. Performance energy is an authentic part of who you are. You
just have to access it.”

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
