Discontinuity and productivity lay conflicting claims on business management and stock investing. Crude oil crashes just as you scramble together a plan to deal with runaway gasoline prices. Consumer minds are fickle. Everything at the office is disturbingly different by the day. You need an entirely new way of doing business and building a portfolio of investments.
Cash, physical assets, and above all, time, are very limited. You wish to sit down and plan ahead, but current operations demand full attention. What use is a strategy if there is no space for execution? Are your colleagues confused by incessant changes in business approach? Do you get into frequent arguments with stock brokers and financial analysts over controversial trades?
Consider a chameleon. He and she have no qualms about changing colors. Twin objectives are clear: keep feeding but do not get eaten. This is a new law of the stock exchange jungle: thrive on volatility. Keep thinking ahead, and swerve without losing momentum.
Contradictions within our own minds make better sense than expressions by others. That is why interaction between stock investors and business management teams needs sea change. Put historical numbers in their places, and develop new senses of adaptability instead. Link your questions to past answers you have been served, and insist on threads of continued purpose.
