It is telling that someone like Doug Rushkoff can write these words; Only individuals who create value for the company are awarded new stock proportionate to their contributions. 💬 Douglas Rushkoff ... without questioning the principle. The corollary is of course that there are people that work inside a company that don't add value, which for yours truly is of course like a 'red rag to a bull' - because as the title of this post suggests, if you are employed by a company and not adding value to that company - then why are you there?

Spotted here. Funny. Thinking Allowed This is a People First post that was originally on the People First domain. It has been moved here as part of my domain consolidation program. It’s a steady and slow WIP as I check each entry, so do please bear with me. More about People First Other People First Posts (not just from the ‘other domain’ … all of them.)

In my book ‘For Business Leaders Slapped In The Face By A World They Thought They Knew’, I referenced an organization called 'The Prout Institute'. It came to mind as I watched this relatively unwatched (in the big scheme of things) video. Andrew Pancholi is definitely an interesting man. It's a 2022 video - but predates the invasion of Ukraine, though not the build-up with the result that we have an immediate feedback loop on some aspects of how right or wrong his thinking is.
