Instant MBA 100: 13

Instant MBA 1-10, Redux: here.

Instant MBA 11 (the detail here): SuperModels. A model summarises all the necessary great thinking you need into one simple process. A model can act as a catalyst to your business thinking.

Instant MBA 12 (the detail here): Thought Leader Tom Peters and the concept of 'Brand You'.

Instant MBA 13: Vision, Mission and All That Stuff. It's easy for anyone in an organisation to begin to think after a while that their sole purpose is answer the phone, repel e-mail and read slide-decks. Hence the usefulness of say a mission statement; it's something which when read reminds us (and the customer) what we are about. The Geek Squad (the IT support guys) has a brand statement for example which is "we'll save your ass". It's worth spending time to get a clear, up-lifting purpose.
