You want to be great then don't kid yourself that good is good enough.
Great corporations are way above good organisations.
Yesterday I had the opportunity of going with our consultant Rizal for a meeting with an MNC. We were talking about the brand promise and following through.
Why is it that some people really refuse to take anything but the best and why is it some are just indifferent to greatness when it is possible.
The answer I suppose lies within the person - Rainbow Creator or Rainbow Chaser.

President Obama
Just like millions of others I waited for the results of the US Presidential election.
Well, the historic event happened, America chose a new President not because he was black but because of his appeal to a majority of Americans. As I said in my last e news some loved him, some did not like him and some really thought it was McCain’s turn. There is a famous expression in the community where I grew up. When the time is right, nothing can stop change.
Whatever happened is immaterial. The important thing is the character of America.
America is truly the land where everyone and anyone can aim for the impossible. The majority white population proved they could vote for a person from another race. It is not the color of the skin but the policies of the candidate.
Secondly, the gracious concession speech by the defeated candidate McCain said so much about the person.
Thirdly, Obama’s acceptance speech was equally gracious Read the book Say it like Barack Obama.
Fourthly, America is indeed able to lead because of its ability to change and reinvent when it matters most.
Fifth, like most others I sat glued to the television and sat in amazement as I saw vivid pictures of great personalities in joy and sorrow.
If only every country in the world could accept that democracy is about not just winning but the free choice of people, the world will be a better place to live.
He is truly a Rainbow Creator.
