Ricardo Semler - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog

Ricardo Semler - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog The ever blogging Chris Corrigan points to an excerpt of Ricardo Semlers book The Seven-Day Weekend. A small teaser: I believe the old way of doing business is dying, and the sooner its dead and buried the better off we all will be. Incendiary words, yet Semcos alliance with Cushman Wakefield, as well as other joint ventures that I will describe shortly, suggests that the transition from the old to the new can be hugely profitable and not nearly as socially disruptive as might be feared at first. On the contrary, the path Semco has been blazing for more than twenty years has led to an unprecedented record of innovation, customer satisfaction, growth, and an end to repressive command-and-control management practices that cause much labor unrest and personal misery, from the top to the bottom of many organizations. That does it, Semler is going on my list of people Ive gotta have a conversation with. Thanks for visiting my blog. If you're new here, you should check out this list of my 10 most popular articles.
