Run Stick Man, Run!

Run Stick Man, Run!

Visual thinking for the day 🙂
Ok, so, big corporations are… well, big. Brilliant insight, I know. Bear with me. They’re big, change-resisting, money-making machines. But, at some point they were small, nimble and entrepreneurial.

Jujitsu is a martial art based on the idea of  “using an attacker’s energy against him, rather than directly opposing it.”

At what point does a company shift from its original entrepreneurial culture to corporate incrementalism? When does it shift from creating to maintaining? When does inertia take over? I’m guessing it has something to do with number of employees & setting up managerial processes, etc. But, can you ever go back to the creating? Should you?
What can we motley rebels– we intrapraneurs do to learn some sweet corporate jujitsu moves?
