Dave Gardner’s “Thank God It’s Monday” 12JUL10

July 12, 2010

“Thank God It’s Monday” is to help companies thrive!

This week’s focus: innovation

The Reuters headline reads, “Google’s Schmidt undaunted by Apple or Facebook.”

And, so Eric Schmidt should be. He believes in Google’s standing in the world and is working hard to further enhance Google’s position as an innovator. There is no reason to believe that Google won’t continue to thrive in a sea of opportunity.

What is the lesson? Being an innovation leader is not about “follow-ship.” Just ask the companies that thrive.

Thought for the week:

“If you aren’t the lead dog, the view never changes.” Dog sledding expression
