Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:
Carla speaks the truth. When I was at P&G they taught me to, "Plan your work and work your plan". Each day had a plan and those plans rolled up into weekly and monthly summaries (to check to make sure you were working your plan).
P&G was run a little like the army (this was in the 1980s remember) and, despite all the change, creating a living plan (i.e. one that is capable of change when needed) is paramount for startups.
Often feels to me with the pace of change we all need to be in a startup state of mind, fleetness of foot and creativity with the right disciplined procsses, I see clients all the time wanting to take their SMB forward and keen to adopt a startup fervour because it matters so much how the business develops to them personally. There are many SMB's and I include myself who can learn from and adapt the focus of the startup. In fact more often than not, we are all needing to startup some new venture, standing still defintely not an otion SOOO Thanks you for this post via Marty much appreciated. Even in large organisations the needto break out and create a startup culture is common. Something in it for almost everyone in this post, so cheers.
