I think this basically depends on the company’s business vision of the managers who manage the company: the highest and most altruistic ideals they have, the better will be for the company I think, because these ideals inevitably reflects on how to manage the business goals within the company, focusing less on personal goals and more on general profits that reflects on all employees as you probably agree.

I say this because the start up of a particular business and its expansion are probably really important subjects, but how much do they cost? Are there any other important topics related? For example, we’ve just created the company, but what about “The backbone”? I mean, those who formed the backbone of the company, representing at the beginning its base and allowing the company to start, to grow and develop, do they have enough support, visibility, opportunity for future growth? Do the managers of the company think about these subjects? There is an uniformity within the company or there are areas of invisibility with employees whose work and talent are hidden? There is meritocracy that allows offices to grow up or business roles are static for business convenience? There is the knowledge of the various roles and abilities of employees, I mean the knowledge of their professional skills, their growth path, their attitudes and their desires, or not? The company’s aim is basically economic or individual attitudes and human aspects are considered and how much? The company also looks for personal growth, in which way? There is a relationship, a dialogue between leaders and employees and what we planned about this at start up? People are considered as simple resources to bill or more? Were taken into consideration suggestions from employees or they are considered as things of poor value as really often happens in nowdays companies? The work environment is nice and uniform across the company we’ve just opened or simply determined by the main figure of one leader in the office imposing the environment? There are unjustified privileges? I think a blog about business company and startup strategies should also talk about these basic topics to be more complete for a business that lasts over and over time; I think every company can improve its vision as well as its profit that I consider to be important but not the most important thing, nor even for a company or a person since the business is not an object, a commodity that lasts forever. The value, esteem and appreciation of people often remains, business often change rapidly as a pendulum. Even the Roman Empire fell, but at the time they believed would stand forever dominating Europe and the whole world: as we all know, everything has a beginning, a peak and a sunset, more or less brilliant: everything is tied to a cycle.

I also think that the world can be changed but I consider it to an higher level, I mean about those basic principles that are above ideas or great works. In a more subtle level I believe that someone could do much more than we usually do today: it’s not just a matter of substance, we tend always to think in our minds more concretely, according to shapes and objects. But we all know there’s something more behind. For example, great scientists such as Nikola Tesla had a more advanced working objective focused on the good of all humanity in a disinterested way, not only for a business project or personal or company ambition as we know. I wanted to bring these ideas to your attention, really hoping they can help your blog to grow.

Best regards, Paul.
