Economic crisis!
Due to the recent economic crisis, it has become
apparent that our current system of numbers is no
longer working.
To address this crisis, a new set of symbols has
been created to replace the current numbers 1 – 10.
It is imperative that we learn these new symbols as
quickly as possible.
Our world as we know it, depends on each of us to
do our best!

1 – due to repetition
10 – Its different and it represents the Roman numeral “10”
5 – Its different
7 – Its similar to the number 7
Most people look for a pattern and have difficulty
finding it in a short amount of time.
We are looking at the pieces rather than the whole.
This is sometimes referred to as “Silo Thinking”

Window of Opportunity
The spider must
weave its web within
its window of
opportunity to capture
and hold onto its
nourishment. If there
is a break in its web,
the spider must act
quickly to close the
gap, or it goes hungry.
If its web doesn’t
cover the entire
opening, potential
nourishment will
continue to fly
through its window of
opportunity.

PERFORMANCE
All organizations operate within a generic framework
consisting of Products or services offered, People who do
the work, Processes that facilitate the work and Performance
metrics that measure success. How organizations operate
within this framework determines their success.
© Tim Pettry, 2008
Organizations must
create systems that
are aligned to capture
and hold onto
customers. Where
pieces of the entire
system are not
aligned, organizations
lose their competitive
edge. Higher costs
due to lower quality
and productivity
create opportunities
for customers to
want to look
elsewhere.

Are you humble enough to involve
your entire organization in creating
