The current post-industrial – technocratic – era will transform organizations. Before, you (as put nicely by Seth Godin) needed to comply. A set of rules, a book of norms, and 100 page manual. Your job was to follow the rules and punch the card. Now, I am starting to see a new type of organizations […]
I am a writer. Easy. Also because I believe that stories are one of the best avenues to share good with the world. When we share our stories we distribute the good. We are giving away a part of us, that also will become a part of others. I quote myself. Isn’t it great? Unfortunately, […]
