Pragmatic growth

In my Blog section, you'll find my fiddlings about my fundamental beliefs taken from rather unconventional analogies of sports, history, the arts, philosophy and music. I will regularly post new stuff which inspired me in my business habits. I will attempt to craft pragmatic how to guides for you so that it does not stay at the inspirational level. It will be anchored at go-to-market, business foresight, operational excellence and my gist about business and cultural texts which I find inspiring for daily business management.
