confusion in the business world in the next decade than in any decade in history. And the

“Good management was the most powerful reason [leading firms] failed to stay atop their industries. Precisely because these firms
listened to their customers, invested aggressively in technologies that would provide their customers more
and better products of the sort they wanted, and because they carefully studied market trends and
systematically allocated investment capital to innovations that promised the best returns, they lost
their positions of leadership.”

“You must realize that how you invest your human capital matters as much as how you
invest your financial capital. Its rate of return determines your future options. Take a job for what it teaches you, not for what it pays. Instead of a potential employer asking, ‘Where do you see yourself in 5 years?’
you’ll ask, ‘If I invest my mental assets with you for 5 years, how much will they
appreciate? How much will my portfolio of career options grow?’ ”

The Sales25: Great Salespeople …
1. Know the product. (Find cool mentors, and use them.)
2. Know the company.3. Know the customer. (Including the customer’s consultants.) (And especially the “corporate culture.”)4. Love internal politics at home and abroad.5. Religiously respect competitors. (No badmouthing, no matter how provoked.)6. Wire the customer’s org. (Relationships at all levels & functions.)7. Wire the home team’s org. and vendors’ orgs. (INVEST Big Time time in relationships at all levels & functions.) (Take junior people in all functions to client meetings.)
![Page 77: Tom Peters Seminar2001 We Are in a Brawl with No Rules! Kansas City/09.28.2001](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649d2c5503460f94a01a8e/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Great Salespeople …
8. Never overpromise. (Even if it costs you your job.) 9. Sell only by solving problems-creating profitable opportunities. (“Our product solves these problems, creates these unimagined INCREDIBLE opportunities, and will make you a ton of money—here’s exactly how.”) (IS THIS A “PRODUCT SALE” OR A WOW-ORIGINAL SOLUTION YOU’LL BE DINING OFF 5 YEARS FROM NOW? THAT WILL BE WRITTEN UP IN THE TRADE PRESS?)10. Will involve anybody—including mortal enemies—if it enhances the scope of the problem we can solve and increases the scope of the opportunity we can encompass.11. Know the Brand Story cold; live the Brand Story. (If not, leave.)
![Page 78: Tom Peters Seminar2001 We Are in a Brawl with No Rules! Kansas City/09.28.2001](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649d2c5503460f94a01a8e/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Great Salespeople …
12. Think “Turnkey.” (It’s always your problem!)
13. Act as “orchestra conductor”: You are responsible for making the whole-damn-network respond. (PERIOD.)
14. Help the customer get to know the vendor’s organization & build up their Rolodex.15. Walk away from bad business. (Even if it gets you fired.)
16. Understand the idea of a “good loss.” (A bold effort that’s sometimes better than a lousy win.)17. Think those who regularly say “It’s all a price issue” suffer from rampant immaturity & shrunken imagination.18. Will not give away the store to get a foot in the door. 19. Are wary & respectful of upstarts—the real enemy.20. Seek several “cool customers”—who’ll drag them into Tomorrowland.
![Page 79: Tom Peters Seminar2001 We Are in a Brawl with No Rules! Kansas City/09.28.2001](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649d2c5503460f94a01a8e/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Great Salespeople …
21. Use the word “partnership” obsessively, even though it is way overused. (“Partnership” includes folks at all levels throughout the supply chain.)22. Send thank you notes by the truckload. (NOT E-NOTES.) (Most are for “little things.”) (50% of those notes are sent to those in our company!) Remember birthdays. Use the word “we.” 23. When you look across the table at the customer, think religiously to yourself: “HOW CAN I MAKE THIS DUDE RICH & FAMOUS & GET HIM-HER PROMOTED?” 24. Great salespeople can affirmatively respond to the query in an HP banner ad: HAVE YOU CHANGED CIVILIZATION TODAY?25. Keep your bloody PowerPoint slides simple!

Mighty is the mongrel. … The hybrid is hip. The impure, the mélange, the adulterated, the
blemished, the rough, the black-and-blue, the mix-and-match – these people are inheriting

nourishes the human spirit, spurs economic growth

Leaders-Teachers Do Not “Transform People”!
Instead leaders-mentors-teachers (1) provide a context which is marked by (2) access to a luxuriant portfolio of meaningful opportunities (projects) which
(3) allow people to fully (and safely, mostly—caveat: “they”
don’t engage unless they’re “mad about something”) express their innate curiosity and (4) engage in a vigorous
discovery voyage (alone and in small teams, assisted by an
extensive self-constructed network) by which those people (5) go to-create places they (and their mentors-teachers-
leaders) had never dreamed existed—and then the leaders-mentors-teachers (6) applaud like hell, stage
“photo-ops,” and ring the church bells 100 times to commemorate the bravery of their
“followers’ ” explorations!

“My wife and I went to a [kindergarten] parent-teacher conference and were informed that our budding refrigerator artist, Christopher, would
be receiving a grade of Unsatisfactory in art. We were shocked. How could any child—let alone our child—receive a poor grade in art at such a young age? His teacher informed us that he had refused to color within the lines, which was a state requirement for demonstrating
‘grade-level motor skills.’ ”

“How many artists are there in the room? Would you please raise your hands. FIRST GRADE: En mass the children leapt from their seats, arms waving. Every child was an artist. SECOND GRADE: About half the kids raised their hands, shoulder high, no higher. The hands were still. THIRD GRADE: At best, 10 kids out of 30 would raise a hand, tentatively, self-consciously. By the time I
reached SIXTH GRADE, no more than one or two kids raised their hands, and then ever so slightly, betraying a fear of being
identified by the group as a ‘closet artist.’ The point is: Every school I visited was was participating
in the suppression of creative genius.”

Schools’ “Kafka-like rituals”: “enforce sensory deprivation on classes of children held in
featureless rooms … sort children into rigid categories by the use of fantastic measures such as
age-grading, or standardized test scores … train children to drop whatever they are occupied with
and to move as a body from to room at the sound of a bell, buzzer, horn, or klaxon … keep children under constant surveillance, depriving them of
private time and space …

Kafka-like rituals (cont.): “assign children numbers constantly, feigning the ability to
discriminate qualities quantitatively … insist that every moment of time be filled with low-

active learning time to acquire.”

“Education, at best, is ecstatic. At its best, its most unfettered, the moment of learning is a moment of delight. This
essential and obvious truth is demonstrated for us every day by the
baby and the preschool child. … When joy is absent, the effectiveness of the
learning process falls and falls until the human being is operating hesitantly,
grudgingly, fearfully.”
George Leonard, Education and Ecstasy [1968]

Education3MLearning is a normal state.Children are learnavores.
Prodigious feats of learning are common as dirt. [Watch an H.S. QB studying game film.]
We learn at different rates.We learn in different ways.
Boys and girls learn [very] differently.In a class of 25, there are 25 different trajectories.
Learning in 40-minutes blocks is bullshit.Learning for tests is utterly insane.
There are numerous rigorous evaluation schemes, of which testing is but one—and abnormal, by “real
world” standards.

We learn most/fastest/most completely when we are passionate about what we are learning and it
matters to us. [Salience rules!] Think EBI/LBI: Education by Interest/
Learning by Internship.Classrooms are abnormal places.
We need changes of pace. [Japanese recesses between each class.]
International test scores are not correlated with hours-per-year in class.
Big classes are slightly problematic. Big schools suck. Period.

“All this”—the right stuff—fits the NWW/New World of Work hand-in-glove. [NWW = Age of Creativity.]
U.S. schools circa 2001 are a vestige of the Prussian-Fordist model, more interested in shaping behavior than stoking the fires of lifelong learning.
Cutting art-music budgets is truly dumb.Learning is a matter of Intensity of Engagement, not elapsed time. [Aargh: 11 minutes on the Battle of Gettysburg.]
Teachers need enough space-time-flexibility to get to know kids as individuals.
Scientific discovery processes and the teaching of science are utterly at odds. [Exploration vs. spoon-feeding.]
![Page 143: Tom Peters Seminar2001 We Are in a Brawl with No Rules! Kansas City/09.28.2001](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649d2c5503460f94a01a8e/html5/thumbnails/143.jpg)
Education3M
Our toughest “learning achievement”—mastering our native language—does not
require schools, or even competent parents. [It does require a desperate need-to-know.]
Great teachers are great learners, not imparters-of-knowledge.
Great teachers ask great questions—that launch kids on lifelong quests.
The world is not about “right” & “wrong” answers; it is about the pursuit of increasingly
sophisticated questions—just ask a ski instructor or neurosurgeon.

Most schools spend most of their time setting up contexts in which kids learn not to like
particular subjects. [Evidence shows that such anti-learning sticks!]
Vigorous exploration is normal … until you are incarcerated in a school.
“Bite size” education-learning is neither education nor learning.
Learning takes place rapidly on the cheerleading squad, the football team, the school newspaper, the drama club, at the after-class job--just not in
the hyper-structured classroom.

Education3M
The “school reform” “movement” is a giant step … backwards … embracing the Prussian-Fordist paradigm with renewed vigor—at exactly the
wrong time.There are large numbers of superb schools, superb principals, superb teachers; sadly, they not only fail
to infect the [largely timid] rest, but are ordinarily supplanted by wusses & wimps.
Alas, the teaching profession does not ordinarily attract “cool dudes & dudettes.”
Schools of “education” should by and large have their charters revoked.

“Education” must “develop in youth the capabilities for engaging in intense concentrated
involvement in an activity.” [James Coleman, 1974.] [Hint: It doesn’t.] [Hint: Understatement.]
Stability is dead; “education” must therefore “educate” for an unknowable, ambiguous,
changing future; thence, learning to learn & change is far more important than mastery of a
static body of “facts.”

“Practice variation is not caused by ‘bad’ or ‘ignorant’ doctors. Rather, it is a natural
consequence of a system that systematically tracks neither its processes nor its outcomes,
preferring to presume that good facilities, good intentions and good training lead automatically
to good results. Providers remain more comfortable with the habits of a guild, where
each craftsman trusts his fellows, than with the demands of the information age.”

“Men seem like loose cannons. Men always move faster through a store’s
aisles. Men spend less time looking. They usually don’t like asking where things are.
You’ll see a man move impatiently through a store to the section he wants,
pick something up, and then, almost abruptly he’s ready to buy. … For a
man, ignoring the price tag is almost a sign of virility.”

“It is obvious to a women when another woman is upset, while a man generally has to physically witness
tears or a temper tantrum or be slapped in the face before he even has a clue that anything is going on. Like most female mammals, women are equipped with far more finely tuned
sensory skills than men.”

“As a hunter, a man needed vision that would allow him to zero in on targets in the distance … whereas a woman needed eyes
to allow a wide arc of vision so that she could monitor any predators sneaking up on the nest. This is why modern men can find their way effortlessly to a distant pub,
but can never find things in fridges, cupboards or drawers.”

called ‘women’s intuition’ and is one of the reasons why a woman can read between the lines of what people say. Men, however, shouldn’t despair.
They are excellent at imitating animal sounds.”

“I make 1/3rd more money than my husband does. I have as much financial
‘pull’ in the relationship as he does. I’d say this is also true of most of my women
friends. Someone should wake up, smell the coffee and kiss our asses long enough

STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY: I am a businessperson. An analyst. A pragmatist. The enormous social good of increased women’s
power is clear to me; but it is not my bailiwick. My “game” is haranguing business leaders
about my fact-based conviction that women’s increasing power – leadership skills
and purchasing power – is the strongest and most dynamic force at work in the American
economy today. Dare I say it as a long-time Palo Altan … THIS IS EVEN BIGGER THAN THE
INTERNET!

THE BASE CASE: I am a design fanatic. Personally, though not “artistic,” I’m a cool-stuff guy. I love what
I love and I hate what I hate. [Openly.] But it goes [much] further, far beyond the personal. Design has
become a professional obsession. I – SIMPLY – BELIEVE THAT DESIGN PER SE IS
THE PRINCIPAL REASON FOR EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT [or detachment] RELATIVE TO A
PRODUCT OR SERVICE OR EXPERIENCE. Design, as I see it, is arguably the #1 determinant of
whether a product-service-experience stands out … or doesn’t. Furthermore, it’s “one of those things” …
that damn few companies put – consistently – on the front burner.

“Most companies tend to equate branding with the company’s marketing. Design a new marketing
campaign and, voila, you’re on course. They are wrong. The task is much bigger. It is about fulfilling our potential … not about a new logo, no matter how
clever. WHAT IS MY MISSION IN LIFE? WHAT DO I WANT TO CONVEY TO PEOPLE? HOW DO
I MAKE SURE THAT WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER THE WORLD IS ACTUALLY UNIQUE? The brand has to give of itself, the company has to give of itself, the management has to give of itself. To
put it bluntly, it is a matter of whether – or not – you want to be … UNIQUE … NOW.”
Jesper Kunde, A Unique Moment

“We are in the twilight of a society based on data. As information and intelligence become the domain of computers, society will place more value on the one human ability that cannot be automated: emotion.
Imagination, myth, ritual - the language of emotion - will affect everything from our purchasing decisions
to how we work with others. Companies will thrive on the basis of their stories and myths. Companies will need to understand
that their products are less important than their stories.”

![Page 278: Tom Peters Seminar2001 We Are in a Brawl with No Rules! Kansas City/09.28.2001](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649d2c5503460f94a01a8e/html5/thumbnails/278.jpg)
“The leader who says ‘I don’t know’ essentially says that the group is facing a new ballgame
where the old tools of logic may be its undoing rather than its salvation. To drop these tools is
not to give up on finding a workable answer. It is only to give up on one means of answering that is ill-suited to the unstable, the unknowable, the
unpredictable. To drop the heavy tools of rationality is to gain access to lightness in the
form of intuitions, feelings, stories, experience, active listening, shared humanity, awareness in
the moment, capability for fascination, awe, novel words and empathy.” - Karl Weick

Duct Tape Rules!
“Andrew Higgins, who built landing craft in WWII, refused to hire graduates of
engineering schools. He believed that they only teach you what you can’t do in engineering
school. He started off with 20 employees, and by the middle of the war had 30,000 working for him. He turned out 20,000 landing craft. D.D.
Eisenhower told me, ‘Andrew Higgins won the war for us. He did it without engineers.’ ”

other markets to enforce their standard.”

“Diversity defines the health and wealth of nations in a new century.
Mighty is the mongrel. … The hybrid is hip. The impure, the mélange, the adulterated, the
blemished, the rough, the black-and-blue, the mix-and-match – these people are inheriting
the earth. Mixing is the new norm. Mixing trumps isolation. It spawns creativity,
nourishes the human spirit, spurs economic growth
and empowers nations.”

“Good management was the most powerful reason [leading firms] failed to
stay atop their industries. Precisely because these firms listened to their customers, invested aggressively in technologies that would
provide their customers more and better products of the sort they wanted, and because
they carefully studied market trends and systematically allocated investment capital to
innovations that promised the best returns, they lost their positions of leadership.”

“One of the hardest things you have to do in running a company is not lie to yourself. Let’s
say I start 10 new ideas. Two are clear winners, two are clear losers. I’ve got six things in between. I always kill the clear losers. The
problem is we let the six in the gray zone live because we rationalize that they’re not failures. ‘Ah, it’s going to work.’ ‘Ah, it’s coming along.’
‘Ah, just a little more.’ The reality is we should think of everything except clear
winners as losers.”

Leaders aimed on changing their
world identify palpable heroes, who executed palpable projects—they
point to these people and say to the masses, “See, here it is, done by one of your own.” (And then they
“deep-dip” a few of those heroes to demo their seriousness.)
