It is interesting how the gap to the unknown can be reduced by appreciating the complexity and gradually eliminating the many self-imposed limitations.<br \/>\nLike our history of mathematics that was defined in linear terms, to discover and appreciate complexity allows a new mindset towards realising better game plans for many issues that have lingered with no effective solution.<br \/>\nIt may be sufficed to question today\u2019s management practices by saying that we have significantly more than 6 forces to describe the market dynamics.  To quote \u201cThe Evolution of Strategic Management by Imo Freese\u201d, \u201cMost businesses shrink to what their manager can manage\u2026\u201d<br \/>\nThey obviously need help to tackle those elusive challenges, impossible thresholds or just to identify a better direction, better game plan and address many issues that remain ignored.<br \/>\nThere is hope with collaboration with many in the same situation, yet they are held back as trust diminishes in a dog eat dog world. To conclude with another quote from the same book, \u201cNo matter how bad things look, it is never too late to get with the programme and turn your life around, i.e. Turn Risk into opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diminishing returns, lost market share, continued losses, or just stagnant expecting the market forces to close inn are all symptoms of accepting a level of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-277","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-promotions"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/277","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=277"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/277\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":280,"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/277\/revisions\/280"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=277"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=277"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/books.ingeniusresults.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=277"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
