What do you think of Peters’ ideas on this philosophy? Do you agree/disagree and why? Would this work just in businesses like real estate, insurance, investments, etc., or can you use it in any setting? What examples can you point to in your own work experience? Enjoy - and feel free to forward to your friends and colleagues! And remember, post your comments in response to the article at that link
