The Role of Tradition in Business


"Tradition is a guide, not a jailer."

W. Somerset Maugham
Early 20th century British novelist and playwright



And the lesson in this for business is, don't be bound by what has been unless you are fairly certain that is also what should be.

Often it is not.

    Are you trying to tell us something?
