Hi Graham
Picked up an interesting comment on the NZ Herald website which adds momentum to your blog about hierarchies and whatever.
It’s about writing, but talks about the ‘whatever’ attitude too…

Moreover, the capacity for rigorous sentence construction, of the kind explored by Don DeLillo, is being replaced in online communication by a lazy and hasty “whateverism”, where nothing has to adhere to the rationalities of syntax or argument, and where no time is given to clarifying thought.

Thanks Graham
I totally agree : not only will word of mouth also then have a prominent place in business and profit, it will become THE way advertising is done and create “CONSUMOTERS” (consumer-promoters) and every business, not just network and referral marketing companies, will employ this method, and the ensuing WIN-WIN will similarly revolutionise the way we do business.
Finally I am a great advocate and active in ‘social entrepreneurship’ and not just ‘doing more good from the proceeds of my income activity : rather MAKING my business activity and profit generation means, THE way to create more for more people and direct projects : Friends of the World is one such living example
