Hi Mike,

Thanks for pointing out that terrific article!

By the way, Jack Stack (the author of the article and CEO of SRC) has an interesting-looking book called "The Great Game of Business". I've read through it partially, it has some great insights too - like his article. (I haven't seen his new book yet, "A Stake in the Outcome".)

I especially like this highlighted quote from the article:

"If you sell a pen, you can make a dollar. If you sell a pen company, you can make $10 million. When you play the game of business at the highest level, you understand that ultimately the company is your product, not the pen."

This seems like an eye-opener in itself.... I'm aware of a few "small-time" entrepreneurs who have really hit the "big time" by realizing this, and who nowadays create and eventually sell their (profitable) businesses. I'm talking literally millions of dollars here....

There's a lot of value in that article.... Thanks Mike!
