the art of business: Ubuntu

http://chrissoderquist.blogspot.com/2008/04/ubuntu.html

The art of business. A forum celebrating creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Friday, April 18, 2008. Most lunch meetings are uneventful: Raw fish, small talk about kids, bemoans about fatheads, cut-to-the-chase business dealings, and cordial encapsulation and good-byes. Starched shirts, formal posture, firm handshakes. Necessary encounters, but not necessarily memorable. I killed a plate of sashimi with a new friend last week that flipped the coin. She flipped; we bonded. Rule 17. Omit needl...

http://chrissoderquist.blogspot.com/2008/03/clash-of-kermit-and-kleiner.html

The art of business. A forum celebrating creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Wednesday, March 26, 2008. The clash of Kermit and Kleiner. I met with a friend yesterday who is navigating the formative financing steps of a promising green-tech company. The venture is buoyed (big time) by an affinity angel, and they’re at a critical how-to-grow juncture. Our conversation harkened a terrific special section in Monday’s WSJ, ECO:nomics, Creating Environmental Capital (click here. Or stars in the sky.

the art of business: This sucks; I've gotta have it

http://chrissoderquist.blogspot.com/2008/04/this-sucks-ive-gotta-have-it.html

The art of business. A forum celebrating creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Friday, April 18, 2008. This sucks; I've gotta have it. I've been awol for too many moons; big time remorse and no excuses. In a word, abandoning the blog sucks (though, of course, no one needs to have it). Which leads me to a cool story. I enjoyed a thoughtful talk at UCD last week by Paul Hudnut. Founder and director of Envirofit. Make money by making meaning (quoting The Great Kawasaki). Was 23. Cool. Needs, and then...

the art of business: Downhill

http://chrissoderquist.blogspot.com/2008/04/downhill.html

The art of business. A forum celebrating creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Friday, April 4, 2008. I do not remember the first time I rode a bike, nor my first coast on a skateboard. My memory of my first downhill ski experience – outside the wedge of my dad - is vivid. Squaw Valley on a Saturday, tips pointed (snow-plowed) downhill, the exhilaration of mass*velocity, tears streaming and wind howling. It was cool. The reddest of cardinal entrepreneur flags is commitment. Not in an emotional...

the art of business: Just do it

http://chrissoderquist.blogspot.com/2007/05/just-do-it.html

The art of business. A forum celebrating creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Monday, May 14, 2007. I would wager that for every 10 somewhat-incubated (how’s that for an ambiguous test? That leaves one lonely idea. One prospective product (or company) that yearns to germinate. How? Aside from the obvious take-and-idea-and-turn-it-into-something-people-will-buy blocking and tackling of business, I’d bank on one discriminating facet: commitment. Tersely summarized by Dr. Timothy J. Maggs:. Nothing ...

the art of business: Build a bonfire

http://chrissoderquist.blogspot.com/2007/05/build-bonfire.html

The art of business. A forum celebrating creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Tuesday, May 15, 2007. We went camping this past weekend in Gualala. 8221; After two successful, smore-filled nights and one painfully grabbed hot rock (an unfortunate lesson for my seven-year-old), bonfire thoughts were rekindled. What is a bonfire? Well, there are bonfires, and then there are bonfires. The obvious:. N A large fire built in the open air, as an expression of public joy and exultation, or for amusement.
