I don’t mind about what you choose to say in the book in terms of appealing to vanities of readers but I do
wish to clarify that mapping maths is extremely simple; moreover anyone who doesn’t know of this maths who says they
are trying to help humanity is deluding themselves, and so anyone else they influence- knowing this is also why the yunus
wave of common sense wont come again ,and we must connect around it on time and in every way that good grace can be brought
to bear
quite simply how can you have a maths less sustainable of any community or context than one side talking as much
it can every quarter from everyone else where that much is both money and destruction of nature, health, literally compounding
any risk that the others don’t know about or which a big lawyer (or billions of dollars of misinforming ads) can
lobby isn’t a risk that needs public intervention
yunus' -and my converse logic - which on close expectation is the
same antidote to purpose-destroying ownership.... frees up 10 win systemisation (5 productivity coordinates
and 5 demand coordinates -see bottom of http://www.trilliondollaraudit.com/ )of positive future exponentials by putting ownership demands in the hands of those in most desperate need of the
service (what one of your books called right side up) whilst ensuring this organization is stewarded by bankers working
for multiplying the goodwill of all -whilst it may be an accident that grameen (and then sister grassroots
bangladesh organizations ) evolved to grow social business models this MICRO-governed way- as yunus says if
you have made billions from an industry at some stage in your life why wouldn’t you want to use industry knowledge to
serve those most vitally impacted by what you know and which none of your profiting business is going to reach anyway
or as another example,
why wouldn’t real privatization -replacing a government unable to manage a service in way that energizes employee and
other demands positively - again turn over the assets to those in most desperate need and again stewarded by bankers
working for their investment in increasing the purpose delivery of this organisation
there are many other models - ie
world's best school luckow was founded by a family of 4 ; purpose not excess profit was always their aim ; today they
serve 31000 kids a year and are a top 10 school in all of india with a resource base probably one hundredth per child that
other top 10 show schools are usually made of
or there are "family companies" like sc johnson where short-term profiteering
is not part of the reputation the family has
in fact if we go back to when an organisation was founded and compounded from
small to large -except where it had a monopoly or cheated it always needed communal win-win-wins (and innovated according
to heaviest customer needs in tune with future possibilities to innovate)
it is not even true that today's corporation
measurable only to quarterly numbers benefits long term investors; the people it benefits are:
people at the very top whose bonus
is measured by annual results- who these days in america are paying themselves about 500 times more than the average worker
in their company - an inside group of 20 or so; a few corrupt professions around them; and of course trading analysts who
unfortunately make revenue by how much they churn stock; and speculators
worse embedded in this maths that is perfect for exponentially
accelerating distrust and end of communal sustainability is the industrial notion that a company can only invest in things
it owns; so you can never book in training of employees as an investment they must always be treated as costs to cut while
you book in excess stock and other assets which you may never be able to subprime sell; worse with American lawyers able
to sue boardrooms that don’t maximize every 90 days we have the profiting by externalizing/outsourcing risk (or practically
slave-labor trading) onto a community the other side of the world who knows least about it
WRONG VALUATION OF GOODWILL MULTIPLICATION
(aka Unseen wealth, profit beyond measure)
we are about 20 years into almost all of the west's largest organizations
being governed by this monopoly metrics of exponential destruction of the purpose their industry sector could be most humanly
valued for- it is time to play industry sector responsibility games the way yunus does with future capitalism but which we
can map with trillion dollar audit http://trilliondollaraudit.com/ - do this now and we can turn a world round from supporting at best .5 billion worthwhile jobs/lifetime exponentials to
7 billion brilliant entrepreneurial lives - please let's just do it now
========================================
so please can we get the proposal of this book done now we have both all your
writing on why the official doctrine is such an intellectual trap but also upward exponential examples from grameen - because
the one bit of good news when a maths mistake is causing lost sustainability all over the world, is change the maths and we
can find upward sustainability exponentials lifting off everywhere; there are solutions to every crisis deep in communities
but these are not being shared both because of the both mathematical error and because of living in a media world where the
cost to let everyone know of a new live saving solution and of a new flavour of soda is the same billions of dollars- another
reason why poor old adam smith's nostrum of free markets was wholly valid but just doesn’t exist in today’s
world wherever big power most noisily claims to be exercising it
