“There will be more
confusion in the business world in the next decade than in any decade in history. And the current pace of
change will only accelerate.”Steve Case
Uncertainty: We don’t know when things will get back
to normal.
Ambiguity: We no longer know what “normal”
means.

The Destruction Imperative!
Forbes100 from 1917 to 1987: 39 members of the Class of ’17 were alive in ’87; 18 are in ’87 F100; the
18 F100 “survivors” underperformed the market by
20%; just 2 (2%), GE & Kodak, outperformed the market from 1917
to 1987.Source: Dick Foster & Sarah Kaplan, Creative Destruction: Why
Companies That Are Built to Last Underperform the Market
“Good management was the most powerful reason [leading firms] failed to stay atop their industries. Precisely because these firms
listened to their customers, invested aggressively in technologies that would provide their customers more
and better products of the sort they wanted, and because they carefully studied market trends and
systematically allocated investment capital to innovations that promised the best returns, they lost
their positions of leadership.”

“AS LEADERS, WOMEN RULE: New Studies find that female managers
outshine their male counterparts in almost
every measure”Title, Special Report, Business Week, 11.20.00
Women’s Strengths Match New Economy Imperatives: Link [rather than rank] workers;
favor interactive-collaborative leadership style [empowerment beats top-down decision making]; sustain fruitful collaborations; comfortable with sharing information; see redistribution of power
as victory, not surrender; favor multi-dimensional feedback; value technical & interpersonal skills, individual & group contributions equally; readily accept ambiguity; honor intuition as well as pure
“rationality”; inherently flexible; appreciate cultural diversity

“Why focus on these late teens and twenty-
somethings? Because they are the first young who are both in a position to change the world, and are actually doing so. … For the first time in history,
children are more comfortable, knowledgeable and literate than their parents about an
innovation central to society. … The Internet has triggered the first industrial revolution in history
to be led by the young.”

The Sameness Trap
“The ‘surplus society’ has a surplus of
similar companies, employing
similar people, with similar educational backgrounds, working in
similar jobs, coming up with similar
ideas, producing similar things, with
similar prices and similar quality.”
Kjell Nordstrom and Jonas Ridderstrale, Funky Business

Strategy 1A:Use E-Commerce to
Re-invent Everything!
Dell’s OptiPlex Facility
Big Job: 6 to 8 hours.(80,000 per day)
Parts Inventory: 100 square feet.
WebWorld = Everything
Web as a way to run your business’s innardsWeb as connector for your entire supply-demand chain Web as “spider’s web” which re-conceives the industry
Web/B2B as ultimate wake-up call to “commodity producers”
Web as the scourge of slack, inefficiency, sloth, bureaucracy, poor customer data
Web as an Encompassing Way of LifeWeb = Everything (P.D. to after-sales)
Web forces you to focus on what you do bestWeb as entrée, at any size, to World’s Best at Everything
as next door neighbor
Message: eCommerce is not a technology play! It is a
relationship, partnership, organizational and
communications play, made possible by new
technologies.
Message: There is no such thing as an effective B2B or
Internet-supply chain strategy in a low-trust,
bottlenecked-communication, six-layer
organization.
“There’s no use trying,” said Alice. “One can’t believe impossible things.”

believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”

Strategy 1B:Embracing an e-Led
Age of Self-Determination
“Parents, doctors, stockbrokers, even military leaders are starting to
lose the authority they once had. There are all these roles premised on access to privileged information. …

Impact #1:
Healthcare
HealthCare2001
Consumerism X Demographics X
IS/Internet X Info Consolidators X Genetics & Devices
= YIKES!
1. Consumerism (Patient-centric Healthcare)
“A seismic shift is underway in healthcare. The Internet is
delivering vast knowledge and new choices to consumers—raising their
expectations and, in many cases, handing them the controls.
[Healthcare] consumers are driving radical, fundamental change.”
Deloitte Research, “Winning the Loyalty of the eHealth Consumer”

“Consumerism”: HMO backlash (e.g., plans with more choice). Alternative Medicine, Wellness & Prevention. Info availability (disease, health, docs,
support groups, outcomes). Self-care (chronic disease). High expectations (genetics, etc.) Boomers (see below). …

2. Demographics: The BOOMERS Reach 55!
Boomer World
“From jogging to plastic surgery, from vegetarian diets
to Viagra, they are fighting to preserve their youth and
defy the effects of gravity.”M.W.C. Howgill, “Healthcare Consumerism, the
Information Revolution and Branding”
Message Boomer: (1) “There are
l-o-t-s of us.” (2) “We have
the $$$$$$. (3) “We’re/I’m in charge!” (4) “We’ll take no
guff from anyone.” (5) “We
know the emperor has no clothes.”
3. The IS/Web REVOLUTION
“We’re in the Internet age, and the average
patient can’t email their doctor.”
Donald Berwick, Harvard Med School
“In an era when terrorists use satellite phones and encrypted email, US gatekeepers stand
armed against them with pencils and paperwork, and archaic computer systems that don’t
talk to each other.”Boston Globe (09.30.2001)
“Once devised in Riyadh, the tasking order took hours to get to the Navy’s six aircraft carriers—because the
Navy had failed years earlier to procure the proper communications gear that would have connected the
Navy with its Air Force counterparts. … To compensate for the lack of communications capability, the Navy was forced to fly a daily cargo mission from
the Persian Gulf and Red Sea to Riyadh in order to pick up a computer printout of the air mission tasking
order, then fly back to the carriers, run photocopy machines at full tilt, and distribute the documents to the air wing squadrons that were planning the next
strike.” –Bill Owens, Lifting the Fog of War
“By combining powerful computer technology and other
modern information-based systems we could make a
revitalized, leaner military force that is designed to outsee,
outmaneuver and outfight any foe.” --Bill Owens, Lifting the Fog of War
“Without being disrespectful, I consider the U.S. healthcare
delivery system the largest cottage industry in the world. There are
virtually no performance measurements and no
standards. Trying to measure performance … is the next revolution in healthcare.”
Richard Huber, former CEO, Aetna
“As unsettling as the prevalence of inappropriate care is the enormous amount of
what can only be called ignorant care. A surprising 85% of everyday medical
treatments have never been scientifically validated. … For instance, when family practitioners in Washington were queried about treating a simple urinary tract
infection, 82 physicians came up with an extraordinary 137 strategies.”
Demanding Medical Excellence: Doctors and Accountability in the Information Age, Michael Millenson
“In health care,
geography is destiny.”
Dartmouth Medical School 1996 report, from Demanding Medical Excellence: Doctors and Accountability in the Information Age,
Michael Millenson
Geography Is Destiny
E.g.: Ft. Myers 4X Manhattan—back surgery. Newark 2X New Haven—
prostatectomy. Rapid City SD 34X Elyria OH—breast-conserving surgery. VT, ME, IA: 3X differences in hysterectomy by age 70; 8X tonsillectomy; 4X prostatectomy
(10X Baton Rouge vs. Binghampton). Breast cancer screening: 4X NE, FL, MI
vs. SE, SW. (Source: various)
Geography Is Destiny
“Often all one must do to acquire a disease is to enter a country where a disease is
recognized—leaving the country will either
cure the malady or turn it into something else. … Blood pressure considered treatably high in the United States might be considered normal in England; and the low blood pressure treated with 85 drugs as well as hydrotherapy and spa
treatments in Germany would entitle its sufferer to lower life insurance rates in the
United States.” – Lynn Payer, Medicine & Culture
“Practice variation is not caused by ‘bad’ or ‘ignorant’ doctors. Rather, it is a natural
consequence of a system that systematically tracks neither its processes nor its outcomes,
preferring to presume that good facilities, good intentions and good training lead automatically
to good results. Providers remain more comfortable with the habits of a guild, where
each craftsman trusts his fellows, than with the demands of the information age.”
Michael Millenson, Demanding Medical Excellence
CDC 1998: 90,000 killed
and 2,000,000 injured from nosocomial
[hospital-caused] drug errors & infections
“Quality of care is the problem, not managed care.”
Institute of Medicine (from Michael Millenson, Demanding Medical Excellence)
RAND (1998): 50%, appropriate preventive care. 60%,
recommended treatment, per medical studies, for chronic
conditions. 20%, chronic care treatment that is wrong.
30% acute care treatment that is wrong.
“In a disturbing 1991 study, 110 nurses of varying experience levels took a written test of their ability to
calculate medication doses. Eight out of 10 made calculation mistakes at
least 10% of the time, while four out of 10 made mistakes 30 % of the
time.”Demanding Medical Excellence: Doctors and Accountability
in the Information Age, Michael Millenson
“Patient by patient, problem by problem—drug reactions, hospital
caused infections—Salt Lake City’s LDS Hospital has attacked treatment-
caused injuries and deaths. One of the secrets of LDS’s success is a custom-
built clinical computer system that may serve as a national model for how
to save patient lives.”Demanding Medical Excellence: Doctors and Accountability
in the Information Age, Michael Millenson
4. Information Consolidators: The Network Maestros
“America has twice as many hospitals and physicians as
it needs.”Med Inc., Sandy Lutz, Woodrin Grossman
& John Bigalke
“The future of hospitals is murky. A combination of technological advances,
managed care, and changes in Medicare reimbursement policy
means that the underlying demand for inpatient services
will continue to fall.”Institute for the Future
“Virtual health care webs force providers to focus on their areas of excellence and to
invest in areas where they can generate a sustainable
competitive advantage.”
Healthcare.com: Rx for Reform, David Friend, Watson Wyatt Worldwide
WebMD (or heirs
& assigns)
5. Genetics & Devices
“Recognizing that a single misspelled gene means the difference
between being poisoned and being cured was the
first victory for the new science of pharmacogenetics.”
Newsweek (06.25.01)
“Pharmacogenomics could
fundamentally change the nature of drug discovery and marketing,
rendering obsolete the pharmaceutical industry’s practice of spending vast amounts of time and
money to craft a single medicine with mass-market appeal.”
The Industry Standard (05.28.01)
“BIG DRUG MAKERS TRY TO POSTPONE
CUSTOM REGIMENS. Most drugs don’t work well for about half the patients for whom they are
prescribed, and experts believe genetic differences are part of the reason. The
technology for genetic testing is now in use. But the technique threatens to be so disruptive to the
business of big drug companies – it could limit the market for some of their blockbuster
products – that many of them are resisting its widespread use.”
The Wall Street Journal (06.18.2001)
Forbes100 from 1917 to 1987: 39 members of the Class of ’17 were alive in ’87; 18 are in ’87 F100; the 18 F100
“survivors” underperformed the
market by 20%; just 2 (2%), GE & Kodak, outperformed the market from
1917 to 1987.

“Imagine the day that your surgeon performs your heart bypass sitting at a computer thousands of miles from the
operating table. That day may come sooner than you think.”
Newsweek (06.25.01)
“There is no question in my mind that the future of heart
surgery is in robotics.”
Dr. Robert Michler, OSU Med Center, upon the FDA’s approval of robotic partial-
bypass surgery
Golden Age of Patient-centric, Genetics-driven Healthcare Looms! Current status: $1.3T. 30M-70M uninsured. 90K killed and
2M injured p.a. in hospitals. 85% treatments unproven. Cure depends on
locale in which treated. 50% prescriptions do not work. 2X docs. 2X hospitals. IS
primitive. Accountability & measurement nil. And everybody’s mad and feels powerless: docs, patients, nurses,
insurers, employers, hospitals administrators and staff.
Message: (1) An unparalleled time
for imagination and bold action. (2) A time of unprecedented
opportunities. (3) A time
of unprecedented risk.

“It is obvious to a woman when another woman is upset, while a man generally has to physically witness
tears or a temper tantrum or be slapped in the face before he even has a clue that anything is going on. Like most female mammals, women are equipped with far more finely tuned

Barbara & Allan Pease, Why Men Don’t Listen & Women Can’t Read Maps
“As a hunter, a man needed vision that would allow him to zero in on targets in the distance … whereas a woman needed eyes
to allow a wide arc of vision so that she could monitor any predators sneaking up on the nest. This is why modern men can find their way effortlessly to a distant pub,
but can never find things in fridges, cupboards or drawers.”
Barbara & Allan Pease, Why Men Don’t Listen & Women Can’t Read Maps
“Female hearing advantage contributes significantly to what is
called ‘women’s intuition’ and is one of the reasons why a woman can read between the lines of what people say. Men, however, shouldn’t despair.
They are excellent at imitating animal sounds.”

STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY: I am a businessperson. An analyst. A pragmatist. The enormous social good of increased women’s
power is clear to me; but it is not my bailiwick. My “game” is haranguing business leaders
about my fact-based conviction that women’s increasing power – leadership skills
and purchasing power – is the strongest and most dynamic force at work in the American
economy today. Dare I say it as a long-time Palo Alto resident … THIS IS EVEN BIGGER THAN

Strategy 3A:
BRAND POWER!
“WHO ARE YOU [these days] ?”
TP to Client
“Most companies tend to equate branding with the company’s marketing. Design a new marketing
campaign and, voila, you’re on course. They are wrong. The task is much bigger. It is about fulfilling our potential … not about a new logo, no matter how
clever. WHAT IS MY MISSION IN LIFE? WHAT DO I WANT TO CONVEY TO PEOPLE? HOW DO
I MAKE SURE THAT WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER THE WORLD IS ACTUALLY UNIQUE? The brand has to give of itself, the company has to give of itself, the management has to give of itself. To
put it bluntly, it is a matter of whether – or not – you want to be … UNIQUE … NOW.”
Jesper Kunde, A Unique Moment
“We are in the twilight of a society based on data. As information and intelligence become the domain of computers, society will place more value on the one human ability that cannot be automated: emotion.
Imagination, myth, ritual - the language of emotion - will affect everything from our purchasing decisions
to how we work with others. Companies will thrive on the basis of their stories and myths. Companies will need to understand
that their products are less important than their stories.”
Rolf Jensen, Copenhagen Institute for Future Studies

Leading in Totally Screwed
Up Times
1. Leadership Is a …
Mutual Discovery Process.
“I don’t know.”
Leaders-Teachers Do Not “Transform People”!
Instead leaders-mentors-teachers (1) provide a context which is marked by (2) access to a luxuriant portfolio of meaningful opportunities (projects) which
(3) allow people to fully (and safely, mostly—caveat: “they”
don’t engage unless they’re “mad about something”) express their innate curiosity and (4) engage in a vigorous
discovery voyage (alone and in small teams, assisted by an
extensive self-constructed network) by which those people (5) go to-create places they (and their mentors-teachers-
leaders) had never dreamed existed—and then the leaders-mentors-teachers (6) applaud like hell, stage
“photo-ops,” and ring the church bells 100 times to commemorate the bravery of their
“followers’ ” explorations!
2. Great Leaders on Snorting
Steeds Are Important – but
Great Talent Developers (Type I
Leadership) are the Bedrock of Organizations that Perform Over

18. Leaders
Give … RESPECT!
“It was much later that I realized Dad’s secret. He gained respect by giving it. He
talked and listened to the fourth-grade kids in Spring Valley who shined shoes the same way he talked and listened to a

communication of a story.”
Howard Gardner Leading Minds: An Anatomy of Leadership
21. Leaders Seed & Pursue &
Recognize (Weird) “Demos.”
L.B.I.W.D. (Leading

Engagement, Commitment, Great Causes & Determination to Make a
Damn Difference, Shared Adventures, Bizarre Failures, Growth, Insatiable
Appetite for Change.] [Otherwise, why bother? Just read Dilbert. TP’s final words: CYNICISM SUCKS.]
23. Leaders Are
Graceful.

whether it’s amazing grace,
saving grace, grace under
fire, Grace Kelly. How we live contributes to beauty – whether it’s how we treat other people or
the environment.”
Celeste Cooper, designer
Rodale’s on “Grace” …
