11I am often asked by would-be entrepreneurs
seeking escape from life within huge corporate
structures, How do I build a small firm for
myself? The answer seems obvious Buy a very
large one and just wait. Paul Ormerod, Why
Most Things Fail Evolution, Extinction and
Economics
12Dick Kovacevich You dont get better by being
bigger. You get worse.
13It is generally much easier to kill an
organization than change it substantially.

27 Why Do I love
Freaks? (1) Because when Anything Interesting
happens it was a freak who did it. (Period.)
(2) Freaks are fun. (Freaks are also a pain.)
(Freaks are never boring.) (3) We need freaks.
Especially in freaky times. (Hint These are
freaky times, for you me the CIA the Army
Avon.) (4) A critical mass of
freaks-in-our-midst automatically make
us-who-are-not-so-freaky at least somewhat more
freaky. (Which is a Good Thing in freaky
timessee immediately above.) (5) Freaks are
the only (ONLY) ones who succeedas in, make it
into the history books. (6) Freaks keep us
from falling into ruts. (If we listen to them.)
(We seldom listen to them.) (Which is why most
organizations are in ruts. Make that chasms.)

36We made mistakes, of course. Most of them were
omissions we didnt think of when we initially
wrote the software. We fixed them by doing it
over and over, again and again. We do the same
today. While our competitors are still sucking
their thumbs trying to make the design perfect,
were already on prototype version 5. By the
time our rivals are ready with wires and screws,
we are on version 10. It gets back to planning

RULE Women make all the financial
decisions.Women control all the wealth. Women
substantially outlive men. Women start most of
the new businesses. Womens work force
participation rates have soared
worldwide. Women are closing in on same pay for
same job. Women are penetrating senior
ranks rapidly even if the pace is slow for
the corner office per se. Womens
leadership strengths are exceptionally well
aligned with new organizational effectiveness
value-added imperatives. Women are better
salespersons than men. Women buy almost
everythingcommercial as well as consumer
goods. So what exactly is the point of men?
