Good two days in Zermatt. Interesting ones. On my way back from the Zermatt Summit some phrases, some discussions still stay and seem to become even more powerful. Rethinking Business values and Positive Economy is a must: have you asked why we do business? For gaining money? Why? One interesting point was that we have…

Twoandahalfweeks in India – from Coimbatore to Cochin by train
It is 4.20 hrs am when we leave our KKSD training center where we stayed the last days. A beautiful location, just half an hour away from Coimbatore. Our next destination is Cochin – by train. Whoever had been to India and seen trains passing by knows that this is an adventure – included into…
Twoandahalfweeks in India – Contrasts and challenges
When I arrive at the airport the streets are empty. 3 a.m. in the morning. Everything works well: Visa check, changing money, meeting the pre-ordered taxi driver at the arrival meeting point, getting into the hotel. I feel welcome in India. People here are very kind, without any doubt. The first adventure? Just take a…

Why pure innovation does not change the world
I think there are and there must be a lot of innovators in the world. Just thinking about all the scientists at the universities, the huge number of promotions and habilitations. Or the frequent claims and visions of huge companies which announce how important they rate innovation. Probably, they really support innovative thinking and spend…
Crakakuiooi….About implementing innovative business models
I bet you are also looking for innovation – or at least for innovative ideas. Which is nothing bad, although I feel this term is somehow becoming ‘boring’ – everyone talks about innovation, innovate this, innovate that … Just think about the innovative market behind: Do you know all the techniques and processes on how…
Networking and cooperation – across all borders
In our daily lives we have a lot of networks. Networks are not really new. I mean thinking about the railway system, the telephone net, the network structures in many industries it is nothing that has been invented just in the last years or has raised just due to the huge digital wave we have…
Children books and Social change – help needed
There has been written so much about education as a key element to social change. And probably there are only a few things in the world that are that true. When I came across this chart I was really surprised how many children books lack of diversity. On the other side I know some people…
