No-stakeholder focus colorAs soon as an organization, a team, or a person, defines their purpose as a focus on one thing above other things, there will be sub-optimization. When I focus on writing, I cannot focus on knitting. Somebody else will have to do the knitting, so I can focus on the writing. And maybe later we can trade my wonderful book for your beautiful sweater. We have to realize that everyone is entangled in a web of economic dependencies, and therefore the purpose you choose for yourself should somehow generate value for the others around you. Or else nobody will give you a knitted sweater.
