Might you be the Buddha on your company Board?
Pause for a moment.
Imagine the Buddha was on your company Board?
What might be different?
Well, firstly, you wouldn’t sell guns, gamble and kill shit or people. Obvs. You guys need not apply.
But he might help you:
- unleash your natural creativity, adapt and evolve to a constantly a changing market, constantly changing needs. (#agile thinking predates any agile manifesto, btw!).
- focus on #change, not #growth.
- know that you’re only as strong as the network you help, so you’d help well and connect generously.
- tell good #stories, which talk to the heart and then the head.
- understand that all people, including you, me AND Aunty Mavis are all needy, greedy, lazy and crazy.
- create a revolution, incrementally.
- embrace money, sensibly.
- be genuinely useful (and not in that empty *Purpose/Mission* statement kinda way...).
“What work do you do?” might come to be the defining question of our time. And it applies equally to companies as it does people.
The good news?
You can be the #Buddha on your #Board.
