At my work there is a clear connection and logic flow across all the questions. It is very important to stay inside the circle, because when organizations start to go off track things can go really wrong and they will miss their targets and audience.

Ideas could come from everyone, it doesn't have to be a manager or a senior, but managers and seniors need to pay attention to all ideas and see if they fit in the organization's strategy and purpose and values.

The Unilever brand Dove!

These people talk about their insecurities about their looks and the way they accepted their natural beauty, but research has found numerous toxic ingredients in their products:

I read this and thought of sharing it “A company with a strong alignment between its strategy and its operating model is like an engine firing on all cylinders.”

Penfold vs Yellowglen
Penfold is one of the oldest... -

I work at a winery that is part of a huge French brand; not only the wine industry has so many regulations and rules for production, also being part of that huge portfolio can affect so many decisions and future plans. Although, they have capability for pursuing new opportunities arising, the brand's image, customer demand and sustainability are very important...

I can say that I'm an adventurous person, although sometimes i do things based on instant reactions. I know that is very wrong and it could be dangerous, but it made me a better person "I guess" .
It is very important to dream, but dreams alone with no achievements are just dreams, and in life you have to be alert, you have to be ready to make that change... -

My key events were both intended and emergent at the same time, they are kind of connected with each other.
I made a lot of decisions and reacted to a lot of outside influences, and a lot of the outside events were the results of my decisions.
the common thing between all the events that happened in my life is that they all follow pretty much the same... -

Over the years I have made a lot of mistakes and i learnt a lot from them, and I have made the same mistake more than once but that does not mean i did not learn how to make the right choice, it means that i have found more wrong ways to deal with the situation.
Everytime life, work, health or anything else knocks you... -

Aldi vs Zara
Aldi is struggling, I'm going to focus on 3 points:
1. 75% of their products come from British suppliers and manufacturers
customer loyalty is not just for the brand it is also for the product, producer and the country of origin. With so many options available for the customers from other supermarkets in different countries, this might apply a... -

Hello, I'm interested in change because the world is becoming more ordinary and it is time to change the way we think, react and deal with acceptance.
I hope to learn new ways of thinking and seeking solutions so I would be able to make a difference. -

It is good to plan and execute but understanding the requirements of the market and the capabilities of your organisation is far more important in order to achieve economic value.
