The Only Object of Life
Margaret Fuller wrote: “Very early, I knew that the only object in life was to grow.” I love this quote and imagine this perspective had a profound impact on the quality of her life. If each of us shared Margaret’s outlook and truly lived from this perspective in all of its fullness, what would be different for us and those whom we touch? There are many possibilities.

The Man Behind the Music: The Early Years of Simon Fuller
In the quarter century that he has been doing what he does best, Simon Fuller has become arguably the most successful British music manager in history. He has managed everyone from the Spice Girls to David Beckham, and continues to work on creating new stars in the entertainment industry. With millions of records sold around the world and a burgeoning television franchise under his belt, Fuller has cemented his place in music history.

From Spice to Soccer: Fuller Charts New Territory
In 1996, Fuller created a carefully constructed promotion package for the newly named Spice Girls. Within just a few months of hiring Fuller as their manager, the Spice Girls were an international sensation. Their debut single, Wannabe, became the instant number one hit in not only the UK, but in 36 other countries around the world.

Lesson #1: Build a Brand with No Bounds
Simon Fuller’s specialty is not that he finds particularly outstanding talent and introduces it to the world. Rather, Fuller’s gift is that he is able to take almost anyone and build them up into a brand – a brand that the world cannot resist.

Lesson #2: Make Sure You Are Clear On Your Purpose
It is said that those who know Simon Fuller either love him or hate him. On the more favourable side, his role in the music industry has been compared to the late Brian Epstein, the Beatles’ manager responsible for the great British Invasion. On the other hand, Fuller has his critics who denounce him as someone who has sullied the music business with talentless artists and made fame a characteristic that can come irrespective of talent.

Lesson #3: If Your Job Does Not Excite You, Find a New One
Fuller was born the son of an RAF pilot who later became a teacher who was passionately enthusiastic about founding schools. It was that passion that took the Fuller family to West Africa. Simon, along with his brothers Kim and Mark, spent much of their childhood growing up in Ghana, where their father would establish schools.

Lesson #4: Put Yourself in Your Consumers’ Shoes
In the mid-1990s, Fuller came across a group of five women who called themselves Spice. They had been singing together and trying to get noticed for more than 18 months, to no success. When Fuller approached them, they were not sure what to expect, but anything had to be better than how they had spent the last 18 months.

Lesson #5: Reinventing Yourself is Risky but Rewarding
Some critics contend that there is nothing especially unique about Fuller’s recipe for success. Instead, they say he has simply capitalized on the phenomenon of disposable pop. What they fail to realize however, is that despite all outward appearances, Fuller has time and again reinvented himself.

Organizational Change - Of Ferns and Fractals
Last time your took a walk in nature did you ask yourself “who controls all this stuff?” I would venture to say that you did not. Most of us take a walk just to enjoy the fresh air-but not Margaret Wheatley. Margaret looked at the natural world and asked herself: “how can there be so much order in a nature without anyone in control of it?”. For example how is there so much symmetry in a plant such as a fern?
