Caring and Authenticity
“At its core, social media requires that business leaders start thinking like small-town shop owners. They’re going to have to take the long view and stop using short-term benchmarks to gauge their progress.In short, business leaders are going to have to relearn the ethics and skills our great grandparents’ generation used in building their own businesses and communities. Only those that can figure out how to mind their manners in a very old fashioned way and do it with authenticity are going to have a prayer of competing.”
From The Thank You Economy, March 2011
