Compass Trend (19): Thriving in the Efficient Economy



The Compass rule of the efficient economy is to have a macro roster of multi-facet players (esp in the supporting role). Sport organizations (i.e., the San Francisco Niners, the New England Patriots, etc.) have utilized them for the purpose of getting maximum cash efficiency. It is all about getting the most bang for the buck.

Whenever, a starting player is injured, another capable player (with less financial value) steps in and meets the performance standard. Idealistically, there should be no drop of efficiency.

The Real World
Finding quality people in the bargain basement of cheap labor is what Walmart and many corporations do quite well. ... To succeed in the retail marketplace, they have to be able to find the "right" lower-tier talent in order to to fulfill their field operation without ever making any full commitment.  Their labor pool are usually quite expendable and cheap.   


This is the "Dao of the Efficient Economy."  Regardless of the various innovations that one might think about, one must be extremely efficient for the purpose of saving time and resources.


Compass Rule
Thriving begins by knowing the order (of priorities) for each situation and beyond.
