July’s issue
of NewsLeader is out!
Even if you are not choosing
a software management tool like an ERP, you may wish to read the article ‘To SAP
or not to SAP,’ for it is an exercise in business strategy.
Too
much gossip goes on in your corporation? Is the range of conversational topics a
bit too narrow? Are the angles of approach to topics a bit too bland? Is your
engineering-trained leader short of culture in the humanities?
Theodore Zeldin, of The Oxford Muse, is always inspiring, such is the
role of a muse, and he asked me an important question, one I am struggling with
since: why is conversation so difficult with business leaders of a scientific or
technical background?
That is a related but different question from the one that C.P. Snow addressed in Two Cultures about
half a century ago. Theodore’s one is focused on business and therefore on the
quality of decision-making. Contribute to an answer if you wish. The question is
important.
NewsLeader is already structuring alliances with bookshops to stock-up
corporate libraries with books, music, films; and to schedule spiels by
inspiring speakers. Join us, soon it will embarrassing for a corporation to
offer a gym but no library to its employees!
