Corporate and Nation States are no longer responsible for us. The new Welfare is designed by IKEA. It comes in flat packs, with no assembly instructions.
Yet, I’m hopeful that people will see the power of being responsible of their professional lives. I’m hopeful because I’m in charge of Myself Inc. as President and CEO. I’m hopeful because I love the business at its best, and I’m hopeful we will continue to find genuine pleasure in pursuing mastery with originality, getting through the complexity of our lives.
Happy new year!
End Of The Nation States

In our interlinked economy, countries are no more relevant units of analysis. Multinational companies no longer think in terms nation states. Other units of analysis like -language, age, climate, lifestyle are much more relevant.
Why should I have a subsidiary in Finland and one in Sweden? Why should I have a Nordic Office at all, instead of having a sales agent for -truck drivers- or for -gardeners- wherever they may be?
At the cash register, we’re all brother in arms.
Abbà Pater

In 1999, Pope John Paul II, launched the CD ‘Abbà Pater’ on which… he raps. In the same year an amendment to the Chinese constitution says that “Private business is an important component of the country’s socialist market economy“.
Business is like a stage where we all play roles. But instead of traditional action, we play in improvised theatres. Without a script nor a director, the audience is joining the actors, asking for leading roles.
Every role is vacant. The horror theatre is open, fantastic and frightening. As our business is driven by uncertainty and fear, what is pushing us at the speed of light?
