Well since 85% of productivity of large companies is directly connected to
intangibles and these companies are almost completely blind to the human
qualities of what connects intangibles productivity : which you can test
from 2 simple exercises in the top left column thread at www.valuetrue.com
...
the chances of any growth - and when - are determined by when transparent
corporate governance ushers in - and since that requires a mother of all
benchmarking to make Baldrige quality gap's narrowing in the 80's look like
child's play, I expect 2 years of deeper and deeper depression and social
crisis are sadly on the cards before the vain bureaucracies unlearn
This incidentally was the modal prediction that came about through
interviewing intangibles experts early in 2001 when Brookings published
Unseen Wealth and the European Union published an equally strongly worded
criticism of every blindness built into accounting monopolies built round
last term's number and Speculator Value Analysis
...and the rest has been history tracking the future so to speak
