Thanks for sharing. To the belief that ‘mankind is my business’ to which I fully subscribe, one idea is this: bring Ken Blanchard together with Dlush Beverage Joint. Dlush is set to open a marquee store centercourt in the heart of the UCSD campus here in La Jolla. The youth-oriented retail concept is an ideal training ground to cultivate business life skills for coming of age leaders. Dlush embraces the ‘mankind is business’ approach and perhaps there are ways to come together – a preeminent leadership group like KB with a beehive of youth employees to drive lessons that matter as these college students become our future leaders. No better learning that from in the octagon.

Thanks Jim. I could not agree more. One of my favorite quotes is: “It is more noble to give yourself completely to one individual than to labor diligently for the salvation of the masses.”

Too many people get sidetracked by the short-term benefits of a business. People are at the core of it and when you neglect the need to make a difference in their lives, you’re missing out.

As the previous writer indicates, we may only need to impact one or two people. This may be our calling. If we take care of our people, the profits will be adequate to sustain the business. Profit with out people is hollow, at best.

In the song ‘Easy to Be Hard’ (showing my 70’s music roots…) the lyric says it all: ‘Do you only care about the bleeding crowd? How about a needing friend, I need a friend”. Making that call to a down and out or ill old classmate or friend or an elderly relative or neighbor, forgiving someone’s long-ago transgression, making a meal for a group home – these are all acts of kindness that directly impact another human being. Donations to the big non-profits are necessary of course, but grabbing that little tag off the Christmas tree at your church, and actually shopping for one person you don’t even know will bring love to both your hearts.
