It Was Worth It!



"They never fail who die in a great cause."

Lord Byron
Late 18th/early 19th century British poet


So in business you never fail if what you attempt is worthy of your effort?

Other than ROI, what if anything defines our business efforts as being, or not, worthy?

  1. good question. i'd like to say things about helping employees, the community, etc., but in the end if the company doesn't make money they can't do any of those things anyway.

  2. True, but making money doesn't mean they will try to do those things either. Should a company attempt to do more than simply make money for its stockholders?
