Myself Inc.

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.
