  • Calm down.

  • Slow down.

  • There is speed for anything. You need to be conscious when to slow down and speed up.

  • God if only. You've got the right idea.. shame no one else does.

  • If every company started actively auditing the mistakes they have made and created policies to make sure the same mistakes are not made again, our economy might not be as far in the toilet as it is right now.

  • "It's great to be here Sarah"

  • I think that in order to "slow down" companies need to be very focused and emotionally compelled to do so via a clear and meaningful raison d'etre. This is the challenge of modern businesses for they must undergo evolution into higher levels of complexity at increasingly short intervals as all other things on this planet. Sidenote: kudos to Sarah Green who blasts through business stereotypes and makes a clear case that business savvy can indeed be sexy!

  • Jack Welch first to talk about speed.Kotter talked about Urgency.Charan talked about execution. These over laps on one another. Ingredients he is right. The 7S of McKinsey , Shared Value is soft S , out of most S out of 7S.I think it is matter of consistency.

    Inorganic growth is important ,Vodafone is a classic example of inorganic growth.But sometime the size seems to slow down , the DNA of the whole organisation has to change, changing DNA is not an easy task.

    Nice Video .

  • Interesting... I agree with looking back on what you are doing and re-think if youre in the right track, if not fix it and move on...

  • I agree with his points of view, specially not making the sames mistakes over and over again. I just wonder what companies like Google, Facebook, do when it comes to speed. Perhaps they have too much money to worry about this?
