🎭🤡🎭 WARNING: THIS ABOUT SECTION IS SATIRE 🎭🤡🎭I’ve come to accept that satire is about as fashionable these days as fax machines and powdered wigs. Since subtlety is now mistaken for cruelty, here’s your heads-up: It’s satire, folks. Don’t get your corporate polo in a twist.As Yogi Berra once quipped, "The future ain’t what it used to be!" And LinkedIn? It’s become the Vegas buffet of professionalism and politics—everyone piling their plate with whatever they think will go viral. I tried keeping it strictly business, but let's face it, this platform is as apolitical as Thanksgiving dinner.Here’s where I land: I write about The Politics of Business and the Business of Politics. I poke at sacred cows, rattle cages, and throw in a bit of Dr. Deming for good measure—because, spoiler alert, companies still don’t know what quality management means.With over 55 years navigating the corporate jungle, I’ve seen it all—yes, including the ongoing lip service to Deming's principles. Remember his sage advice to "break down barriers between departments"? Yeah, 90% of companies are still treating that like an optional garnish instead of the main course.My big “aha” moment? Attending a 1991 live seminar by Deming himself. At 91 years old, the man could out-think most MBAs half his age. He hammered home the truth: real quality requires more than catchy mission statements and a clipboard-wielding consultant.Now, I’m writing about biofuels, ecosystems, and transformational leadership. Why? Because the planet isn’t waiting for companies to figure out the obvious: adaptability and genuine collaboration are the only way forward.So, if your organization is still stuck in a 1980s time warp, treating silos like sacred temples and quality as a buzzword, it’s time to reassess. Or don’t. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you when your competitors leave you in the dust.And for those wondering, yes, this is satire. Probably. Sort of. 🎭🤡🎭 Warning ⚠️ Attempted Satire 🎭🤡🤡
