Starting things right

Now, I am still early in the game when it comes to start-ups, but I appreciate the insight found in this article. 10 principles start-ups can embrace in order to be successful in their endeavors. (This relates specifically to a computer orientated start-up although the author does say it can apply to any start-up. So anyhow, 10 things for a start-up to “be”:

  • narrow
  • different
  • picky
  • casual
  • user-centric
  • self-centered
  • greedy
  • tiny
  • agile
  • balanced
  • wise (this eleventh one is given by me, free of charge)

Why greedy? You’ll have to check the article for details.

I also have been listening to some great interviews called: “Change Artists: a CEO/CIO conversation”. Promoted by HP, One of the main goals of the show is to pick the brains of some of the worlds best business leaders, specifically in terms of how they manage and pioneer change in today’s competitive marketplace. (In their case, towing behind them huge enterprises) (Obviously promoting HP among Fortune 500s is also on the agenda) This has been extremely interesting for me and I have really enjoyed watching and absorbing years of wisdom and insight from some of today’s big heavyweights! I highly recommend you watch!
