I said I was going to reduce my participation. That's my plan. I just feel to
passionate about this stuff, and my desire to participate is too strong. . .I
need a little personal mastery. . .
Anyway, Stephen raises a really important issue: How can a rapidly growing
company use the ideas of a LO effectively, so they avoid the mistakes
common at such a critical time? I saw WordPerfect go from nothing to a
$700 million dollar company in about 10 years. Part of the reason they were
absorbed by Novell and then Corel was they didn't effectively manage their
growth.
I changed the subject LO's & Rapid Growth, as I think this topic could
provide some useful dialogue.
