32Brilliant!
33A focus on cost-cutting and efficiency has
helped many organizations weather the downturn,
but this approach will ultimately render them
obsolete. Only the constant pursuit of innovation
can ensure long-term success. Daniel Muzyka,
Dean, Sauder School of Business, Univ of British
Columbia (FT/2004)
34Under his former boss, Jack Welch, the skills GE
prized above all others were cost-cutting,
efficiency and deal-making. What mattered was the
continual improvement of operations, and that
mindset helped the 152 billion industrial and
finance behemoth become a marvel of earnings
consistency. Immelt hasnt turned his back on the
old ways. But in his GE, the new imperatives are
risk-taking, sophisticated marketing and, above
all, innovation. BW/2005

45 The Small Guys Guide Wallop
WalMart16 Niche-aimed. (Never, ever all
things for all people, a mini-WalMart.) Never
attack the monsters head on! (Instead steal niche
business and lukewarm customers.) Dramatically
Different (La Difference ... within our
community, our industry regionally, etc is as
obvious as the end of ones nose!) (THIS IS WHERE
MOST MIDGETS COME UP SHORT.) Compete on
value/experience/intimacy, not price. (You aint
gonna beat the behemoths on cost-price in 9.99
out of 10 cases.) Emotional bond with Clients,
Vendors. (BEAT THE BIGGIES ON EMOTION/CONNECTION!!
)
46 The Small Guys Guide Wallop
WalMart16 Hands-on, emotional leadership.
(We are a great cool intimate joyful
dramatically different team working to transform
our Clients lives via Consistently Incredible
Experiences!) A community star! (Sell
local-ness per se. Sell the hell out of it!) An
incredible experience, from the first to last
momentand then in the follow-up! (These guys
are cool! They get me! They love me!) DESIGN
DRIVEN! (Design is a premier weapon-in-pursuit-o
f-the sublime for small-ish enterprises,
including the professional services.)
47 The Small Guys Guide Wallop
WalMart16 Employer of choice. (A very cool,
well-paid place to work/learning and growth
experience in at least the short term marked by
notably progressive policies.) (THIS IS EMINENTLY
DO-ABLE!!) Sophisticated use of information
technology. (Small-ish is no excuse for small
aims/execution in IS/IT!) Web-power! (The Web
can make very small very big if the
product-service is super-cool and one
purposefully masters buzz/viral
marketing.) Innovative! (Must keep renewing and
expanding and revising and re-imagining the
promise to employees, the customer, the
community.)
48 The Small Guys Guide Wallop
WalMart16 Brand-Lovemark (Kevin Roberts)
Maniacs! (Branding is not just for big folks
with big budgets. And modest size is actually a
Big Advantage in becoming a local-regional-niche
lovemark.) Focus on women-as-clients. (Most
dont. How stupid.) Excellence! (A small player
per me has no right or reason to exist unless
they are in Relentless Pursuit of Excellence. One
earns the rightone damn day and client
experience at a time!to beat the Big Guys in

77Our entire facility is digital. No paper, no
film, no medical records. Nothing. And its all
integratedfrom the lab to X-ray to records to
physician order entry. Patients dont have to
wait for anything. The information from the
physicians office is in registration and vice
versa. The referring physician is immediately
sent an email telling him his patient has shown
up. Its wireless in-house. We have 800
notebook computers that are wireless. Physicians
can walk around with a computer thats
pre-programmed. If the physician wants, well go
out and wire their house so they can sit on the
couch and connect to the network. They can review
a chart from 100 miles away. David Veillette,

Toms Rant2006 - Hospital quality control, at least in the
U.S.A., is a bad, bad joke Depending on whose
stats you believe, hospitals kill 100,000 or so
of us a yearand wound many times that number.
Finally, they are getting around to dealing
with the issue. Well, thanks. And what is it
weve been buying for our Trillion or so bucks a
year? The fix is eminently do-able which makes
the condition even more intolerable. (Disgrace
is far too kind a label for the condition.
Whos to blame? Just about everybody, starting
with the docs who consider oversight from anyone
other than fellow clan members to be
unacceptable.) - 2. The systemtraining, docs, insurance
incentives, culture, patients themselvesis
hopelessly-mindlessly-insanely (as I see it)
skewed toward fixing things (e.g. me) that are
brokennot preventing the problem in the first
place and providing the Maintenance Tools
necessary for a healthy lifestyle. Sure,
bio-medicine will soon allow us to understand and
deal with individual genetic pre-dispositions.
(And hooray!) But take it from this 63-year old,
decades of physical and psychological self-abuse
can literally be reversed in relatively short
order by an encompassing approach to life that
can only be described as a Passion for Wellness
(and Well-being). Patientslike meare catching
on in record numbers but the system is highly
resistant. (Again, the doctors are among the

medical practice.Demanding Medical Excellence
Doctors and Accountability in the Information
Age, Michael Millenson
263Practice variation is not caused by bad or
ignorant doctors. Rather, it is a natural
consequence of a system that systematically
tracks neither its processes nor its outcomes,
preferring to presume that good facilities, good
intentions and good training lead automatically
to good results. Providers remain more
comfortable with the habits of a guild, where
each craftsman trusts his fellows, than with the
demands of the information age.Michael
Millenson, Demanding Medical Excellence
264As unsettling as the prevalence of inappropriate
care is the enormous amount of what can only be
called ignorant care. A surprising 85 of
everyday medical treatments have never been
scientifically validated. For instance, when
family practitioners in Washington State were
queried about treating a simple urinary tract
infection, 82 physicians came up with an
extraordinary 137 strategies.Demanding Medical

265Most physicians believe that diagnosis cant be

it prevents. Atul Gawande, Complications
