Business-driven family companies and family-driven companies are highly conditioned by the family archetype of each culture and the solution given to the roles that this fulfills. In the cultures where the affective predominates over the economic and social role, families that have businesses are highly inefficient and are always at risk as they don’t stabilize as institutions (independently of their members).

In cultures where the roles are balanced, business-driven family companies and family-driven companies are distinct fundamentally for their capacity and speed of growth. Business-driven family companies grow more rapidly.

In cultures where the predominant roles in the family are social insertion and the economic role, families with companies have a powerful influence in the environment. Although structurally they have less capacity to grow, they compensate this with the influence exerted in the environment. In markets with imperfect competition they build very powerful empires.

When we are dealing with business-driven family companies we can state that they are more effective than family-driven companies in the active roles, which are hunting, where one goes out to seek the animal in the market, and agriculture where intensive activities are developed.

An efficiently organized business-driven family company is more effective in passive hunting where it works from the basis of the influence of the family brand, and passive agriculture where extensive is what counts.

Therefore each business-driven family company must know what market niche to occupy where it can best achieve results.

We want to highlight that in marginal markets with highly imperfect competition, these concepts have no effects in reality, which is managed by non-company relationships, where the family-driven company has the weight of the family in that society.

Managing the nature of innovation is basic when dealing with growth. This is something General Electric manages since the era of Thomas Edison.

The Unicist Standard in Innovation Management deals with the object driven technologies that are necessary to manage innovations.

You will find the information on the nature of innovation between the lines of Jeff Immelt’s lecture, CEO of G.E:

Next week we will be providing the ontology of innovation in order to help benchmark General Electric.

Learning Unicist Strategy requires facing real problems to develop real solutions. That is why this program is analogous to a medical residency. You will be dealing with a real problem, provided by your real client, and you will be developing a real solution. You will be backed by your counselor.

Unicist Object Driven Technologies for strategy building allow individuals to diagnose problems and develop the corresponding strategies. The unicist model provides the logic to approach complex problems and transform them into simple solutions. Ambiguity, uncertainty and complex problems are the situations in which the use of unicist strategy models becomes necessary.

There are people who need to control things and cannot deal with divergent positions. In this case a company can only grow in low-cost/ low-value markets.

When the market buys “price” the individual just needs to follow the market. There is no influence needed.

Authoritarian driven companies are basically commodity sellers. When they manage their business processes adequately they might be extremely profitable.

The business has a structural problem to grow when authoritarian governance prevails.

A negotiation is implicitly a war with no material weapons. The unicist ontology of negotiations was discovered by Peter Belohlavek at The Unicist Research Institute.

It requires following three steps within the four levels of negotiations.

The three steps are:

a)      Authority conflict: There has to be an authority conflict in order to accept that both parts are peers from some point of view.

b)      Involution conflict: both parts need to accept that they have opposite interests in order to need to find a bridge. It is necessary to find a superior convenience that works as gravitational force to integrate the opposition.

c)      Evolution conflict: A negotiation ends when both parts accept that they are complementary and that the agreement they have achieved enriches both parts in some way. Win-win doesn’t mean that both parts have the same benefit. It just means that both parts win.

The natural complementation conflicts begin when the negotiation ends. Complementation conflicts are the natural evolution conflicts. They need to be managed so the process does not begin from scratch.

Apple’s success is based on the capacity of perceiving the latent needs of the market and delivering original innovative solutions.

We hope you made the effort to learn from Steve Jobs about Apple’s fundamentals as we proposed.

If you still haven’t done the “homework” we recommend watching the video before following the reading of the answer to the questions posted:

http://unicist.net/it/learning-from-steve-jobs-apple%E2%80%99s-fundamentals/

We consider that the core fundamental of Apple is aesthetics. But aesthetics is not beauty. It goes beyond.

Apple products are aesthetic because they complete the needs of their prospect clients, they are desirable and harmonic. They also include inaccessible aspects that basically deal with innovative technology.

It can be said that the integration of an innovative technology with the fulfillment of latent needs are the core fundamentals that drive Apple’s business.

Steve Jobs is a doer himself

“Doers make things happen. Therefore, more than ever before, it is time for doers in the world.”

Doers are very special individuals. They are basically individuals whose fulfillment is based on doing transcendent things. They need to achieve what they have decided to do. When things cannot be done the easy way, they find the necessary path to make things happen.

“The world is built by doers and enjoyed by followers”. The joy of doers is in the deed itself.

We hope this has been useful.

The Unicist Standard in Object Driven Learning fosters a conscious approach to better adapt to the environment by increasing the added value delivered.

Conscious approaches to reality imply being able to develop strategies by solving problems or building solutions, by forecasting what will happen in an environment and by developing operational solutions to materialize the added value.

The discovery of the ontology of human learning opened the frontiers of knowledge to design educational processes, integrating both extremes: the learning of operational processes and the learning of strategic approaches to reality.

When the same knowledge acquisition tools that are used in operational fields are applied to the learning of strategic approaches, they produce paradoxical results, and the same happens when strategic approaches are used for operational fields.

All what is unexpected is marginal. Market marginality is given by all the aspects that do not respect its rules.

Peter Belohlavek’s e-book provides the natural laws of business strategy. We strongly recommend downloading and printing this book in order to use it as a bedside book until you manage the natural laws of business strategy.

It will shift your business life.

Some of the laws follow as an example:

1. Marginality can be individual, of groups, institutional or social.
2. Market actions are marginal when there is no complementariness between their operation and their concepts.
3. Every marginal action generates marginal effects and marginalizes the one who is acting them.
4. Adolescence is a paradigmatic marginal state. Those who have not lived it, will be a marginal forever.
5. …..
