#OccupyYourOwnBoardRoom
HOPE:
Hope you have very thoughtful and reflective lives
I hope you can replace fear with Love and have self confidence and have Vision.
I hope you can choose to change the world and not choose to try to create a monolithic myopic organisations that within you are all policy backed personally individually unaccountable ‘cogs of the machine’.
I hope you aspire to Betterness and not just Business…
My Vision is UNWAVERING
I know what I want. I want what I know.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Conformity is THEE recipe for systemic irrelevance and rapid onset of antiquity.
In the rapidly changing world in which we now live sustainagility is the only mantra, I will not tolerate “playing corporation” ever. Go play Monopoly if you have an ego to satisfy or an urge to ‘Play’.
I asked a Colleague once what my vision was. He replied ‘to change all the things’ ( maybe not exact wording ) I asked him “what do I mean by that” he replied ‘you think everything that is in the world needs to change’ I know he gets it. At least the language he uses indicates he might indeed Grok it properly.
Following the rigours of ‘paper based’ assumed protocol in a draconian fashion will not accomplish this, when the very paper work and policy that guides it is errd when the very economic model it serves is wholly un-sustainable. When the very governing agencies that guide these papers are rife with corruption to serve inefficiency and bureaucracy alone. Worshipping a corporate fiction is not what I start business for at all.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
EXPECTATIONS:
I expect things in a Betterness environment of those I work with here are the bare basics of my expectations.
I expect deadlines to be set when I ask for them to be set. NOT “we’re working on it”
I expect to never hear the words “it is getting worked on” or “we’re working on it”
I expect deadlines to be met when I ask for them, as they were promised.
I expect production to produce what is needed without hesitation or argument.
I expect transparency.
I expect action instead of hesitation where confidence or uncertainty could delay and create question.
I expect love to out weigh fear. LOVE IS stronger than fear.
I expect to not have to remind any one of deadlines and goals.
I expect to inspire to greatness not create policy into mediocrity.
I expect consensus not democracy, democracy is unsustainable and creates conflict and is an age old tool of disabling progress of groups with great intentions. I have no use for democracy.
I expect you to understand I will not be subservient to any form of Oligarchy.
I expect to know the status of any project when I ask for status.
I expect to have support if I am with a client as an account manager, and thus when I reach out for information or technical assistance unless other wise pre informed as to unavailability otherwise if you know I am on-site with a client be ready to be responsive –
I expect each person to work in any fashion that they see fit.
I expect everyone I work with to be adults ( self included ) and stick to fucking 9 – 5 there is NO EXCUSE to not to do this.
I expect my marketing mandates for the firms I work with to be met with vigour and enthusiasm. Not to be asking for the same basic bare bones things 3 months afterwards.
I expect no arguments over the marketing sales and client relations aspects of the firm.
I expect no resistance, dissenting or contrarian attitudes in regards to what needs to be done to satisfy clients expectations. Customer service and deadlines are not rocket science I should not need to convince you TO DO things.
I expect no delay and foot dragging with projects.
I expect clients to be drilled daily for what they need to provide to us to complete their end of the bargin and for us to not let anything slide by passing “hot potatoes” back in their court.
I expect independence and problem solving.
I expect problems in production with autonomy and self direction to not exist and if they do exist and a dead line is not going to be met then for myself to be informed as soon as production is aware so I can pre-inform clients immediately.
I expect to be informed of problems that will affect the speed of production especially if you are unsure what to do about them.
I expect all members of a group to give as much priority and care to new projects as old and not give excuses to treating any clients with disrespect or care regardless of the monetary realities you feel compelled to justify such behaviour. To treat any client poorly is a disservice to the future and should not be tolerated by any of us.
I expect no member of a group to utter threats or make ultimatums to any other member of the group or any clients. When clients have done this to us in the past I have fired them without hesitation.
I expect to speak to production every day. ( ON THE PHONE or in PERSON FACE to FACE )
I expect production to be able to tell me what they have accomplished every day.
I expect production to record daily what it has accomplished.
I expect to not have resistance when I seek any information regarding any thing I will not be expected to tolerate hiding or keeping secrets.
I expect to know where money has gone to the penny when I ask for information about it.
I expect to have clients contacted within 30 minutes or less!! of asking for clients to be contacted.
I expect an attitude and desire to provide stellar customer service. I do not expect to wait 90 days for production to call a client.
I expect to be cc’d on out going communication to clients only ever always.
I expect to be cc’d on replies if clients send messages that I logically need to be aware of.
I expect more than due diligence I expect 200%
I expect humanity to out weigh all laws all statutes and all governing bodies in all cases in all manors and in any/all fashions.
I expect all I work with to listen to me PERIOD…
I expect all I work with to be adults and not bring mommy or daddy’s to board meetings.
I expect all I work with to take responsibility for what they promise I need not worry about.
I expect all I work with to decide to change the world with me or not.
I expect all I work with never mislead holdback or lie to me.
I expect all I work with to wake with gratitude and embrace your vulnerability each day as you literally wake and omit fear from every choice you make in life.
I expect all my expectations to be met.
I expect this list of my expectations has made my intentions perfectly clear.
I expect I may add to this list in the future.
I expect all I work with to ask any and all questions if you do not understand these expectations in line with my expectation of communication and not holding back.
I expect there to be plenty of dialogue in regards to these expectations.
I expect there to be no name calling.
I expect there to be no arguments ( perhaps I have stated I ready expect no arguments )
Let me be more clear,
I expect dialogue not excuses, I expect discussion not repudiation.
I expect you ALL to understand that I know these specific expectations are not my HIGH expectations that these are the default basics.
HOPE:
Hope you have very thoughtful and reflective lives
I hope you can replace fear with Love and have self confidence and have Vision.
I hope you can choose to change the world and not choose to try to create a monolithic myopic organisations that within you are all policy backed personally individually unaccountable ‘cogs of the machine’.
I hope you aspire to Betterness and not just Business…
My Vision is UNWAVERING
I know what I want. I want what I know.
