Babble on ... and on...
Our idea here is to simply share with you various thoughts or insights we may have on many subjects. Feel free to send us an e–mail if you have any feedback.
Periodically we'll flush out the old stuff to keep things manageable.
Soon we'll be adding an RSS feed to this page, so that you may easily know when we've added something new.

The problem at hand... Most often a simple concept. One might say a simple problem that behests a simple solution. Why then do so many problems turn into lengthy, logistical nightmares? Lack of education, focus, the concept of customer service, simply solve something other than the problem, or is it simply all of the above taking things down the wrong road?

Perspective and focus. Two very important business (and life) principles. So when the "experts" are disappointed when a product doesn't meet their own preconceived expectations, is that a failed product? Or is that really just that these "experts" are truly the opposite of that title? How can you be an "expert" on something that does not exist? Ultimately, the success or failure of a product is determined by the market itself, and by extension the success or failure of the company.

Black and white. Grey... yes, the saviour of those that cannot make a decision. A grey area exists only because one has not broken down things into workable parts in which black and white decisions can be made.

A thought on a comment from long ago that was made to me... When one is told that you are a "maverick", because you have ideas... Is that not a good thing? Or is that a valid criticism?

The economy. It's been the talk for over a year now. There is no doubt that many workers have been affected negatively and many companies have had to adjust. It has become tiring however, to listen to companies that are healthy, continually, and extensively use the economy to shoulder their cut–backs. To be truly successful, this would be the right time to look inwards, maintain, develop, and nurture it's key resources (the employees). In that fashion, when the economy as a whole rebounds fully, as a company you would be at the top of the heap for what one would consider to be... true success.

W Edwards Deming. At least at a minimal level (Deming's 14 points), all business managers, or to be honest everyone, should read works from this most insightful man. The working world would be a better place with even some of his ideas in place.
