Editor's Notes

  1. The answer is that it doesn’t matter what product or service you have – every company does FIVE things.
  2. Your content is your company's biggest hidden asset. Make senior management aware of its value – and the need for high level investment.
  3. The strategic planner The muscle – the get things done The grifter – the sociologist The thief – systems analyst The hacker – technology Cross functional team that gets results.
