Ten Secrets of Business
Via The Nub is this post with the "10 Secrets of Business" from Stuart Craner and Des Dearlove:
1. Money is a by-product: purpose and values come first.2. Culture is the differentiator: it's what makes you unique.
3. The customer comes first - and co-creating value with the customer brings an edge.
4. Talk the walk: communicate, communicate and then communicate some more.
5. Rules stifle: values are more important.
6. Distill it down: so the message is clear.
7. Kill complacency, don't let it kill you - and evolution is better than revolution.
8. Lead by example: credibility is important.
9. Best beats first: originality is not always enough.
10. Keep it simple - because business is fundamentally simple.
Sounds about right.
