The TPM Model | The Super Boxed Trinity | Your Go To Strategy
Tech beats Market
Market beats Product
Product beats Tech
We think that any industry is built around a Tech-Product-Market value proposition as A Materialistic Trinity. TPM assumes that its possible to think of any one of them in terms of the other two. So you can build Tech using Product as output and Market as input; build Product using Market as output and Tech as input; and build Market using Tech as output and Product as input. This is what we call Project: Innovate. For detailed information about Project: Innovate, contact us!
​
We don't believe companies should think only in terms of Go-To-Market (GTM). There are also Go-To-Product (GTP) and Go-To-Tech (GTT), and all three need to be crystallized and in sync for a singular 'Go-To-Strategy'. If these 3 components - GTM, GTP & GTT - are already in place, we review them in terms of fitment: Tech-Product fit, Product-Market fit and Market-Tech fit.
The Holy Industrial Trinity
In The Natural World, what goes on inside a Purple Box is completely known, while the input and output are unknowable.
With these 3 connected Purple Boxes, any one of them can be designed in terms of the other two.
Describe The Situation / Survey The Intent
Get Back Mojo
Traditional management consulting is structured according to problem-solving. The client provides the problem in the form of a brief and the consultant provides a solution in the form of a proposal. This approach is grossly ineffective in the new age of VUCA, as situations and intentions can and often do change during the course of the engagement. The outcome is chronically, consultants describing and surveying almost anything and clients left having to deal with undetectable situations and intentions everywhere.
​
"Describing And Surveying Anything With Situations And Intentions Everywhere" is a vicious cycle. But you can make it virtuous by combining the terms in a novel way. 'Describe The Situation' / 'Survey The Intent' assumes that a problem can be an opportunity, and that opportunity in turn, can be a solution. You don't have to eliminate the problem with typical problem-solving. The In-House Consulting Model which emerges is democratic and collaborative, treats the company as a talented matrix of equal and imperative nodes at the intersections of different levels and functions, transcends the executive suite by assuming that a company moves forward as whole (with dexterity) and sole (with agility), and ultimately enables recommendations to be tailored to company stealth or managerial circumstances with continually evolving & intelligent (in-sourced) as well as unique & dynamic (close-sourced) engagement criteria.
​
Traditional Management Consulting is incapable of taking the client organization into account when it comes to change, and is symptomatic quite simply because change is always organizational. Here's how we would explain it: any company is composed of people as its greatest asset. If you take away the people, all the other assets lose their value overnight. But is that all? Just a bunch of people? Not at all. And that's when you need to appreciate all the non-people assets in order to get inspired and find out how you need to organize as people. At the end of the day, a company is not about the people but the organization. In its simplest form, an organization is a matrix composed of levels & functions. Any person in the company has a designation that puts him in the matrix at a certain level & in a certain function. The matrix of levels & functions is what allows the organization to make things happen. And its not about people anymore. Its people as nodes defined by levels & functions in order to meet targeted objectives. Organizational change is required when the current matrix is either insufficient in terms of structure enabled by its levels or behaviors enabled by its functions. You know there's a need for organizational change when either things start to fall through the cracks (seemingly important work for which nobody is willing to take responsibility) or you're unable to optimize performance. An organization becomes dysfunctional & dis-leveled when there's a lack of proper work and performance as per targeted objectives. With only foresight at your disposal, you need to create a brand new organization or change the existing organization such that behaviors become redefined based on functions & structures become redefined based on levels in order to meet the targeted objectives. So how do you enable such Organizational Change? By knowing that the Organizational Matrix as well as Targeted Objectives depend on 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate'.
That's where we come in with our In-House Consulting Model.
Keep It Simple Stupid Modern
Plug N Play
Something has to be done about the explosion of issues in today's hyper environments. We have something that we like to call 'Insight Factory' (based on 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate'), which seamlessly takes issues as inputs and provides recommendations as outputs. We ensure that a company is able to confront, troubleshoot, eliminate each and every issue and move forward by responding to their hidden situations or intentions most effectively and efficiently.
​
When it comes to Strategic Innovation, a lot depends on the domain. We don't claim to be the experts, but neither do we wish to provide hollow and reputable arms-length recommendations that either have little probability of going through a highly intelligent process change funnel, or take all the fun out.
​
We assume that managers understand their domains, but would still need to respond to situations or intentions as they arise invisibly across levels & functions and across space & time in organizations. So we deliciously "interface" with managers through our In-House Consulting Model and facilitate 'Situational Or Intentional Abstraction'. That is how we think Strategic Innovation can happen.
​
PS: A word about our Multi-Tenant Consulting Cloud. The basic concept is analogous to virtualization found in compute, storage and networking technologies. In traditional management consulting, there's a 1:1 correspondence between any issue presented by a client and any recommendation presented by a consulting firm. We do something radically different. Through our democratic and collaborative in-house consulting model (that transcends the executive suite and views the company as a talented matrix of equal and imperative nodes at the intersections of different levels and functions), all the client issues get pooled into one cloud-like architecture, from which we abstract what we like to call 'A Tenant Situational Or Intentional Machine' based on 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate'. These Tenant Machines become the foundation for making recommendations around diversely stitched and well-defined circumstances. The profound benefit is that the recommendations become insightful and scalable with a continuous and consistent company fabric.
​
Ultimately, companies need to move forward as whole (with dexterity) and sole (with agility) in search of opportunities and advantages for which they require not strategy, not innovation, but 'Strategic Innovation'. Only 'Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality' can steer purple & invent a future or come back to a future.
Our Human Lens - Theory Of Everything
Just like Human DNA, there's something called Company DNA which quietly dictates organizational capability across levels & functions and like an invisible hand, orchestrates everything. This DNA depends on and gets shaped by 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality' day in day out. Any company that's either blissfully unaware or willfully dismissive of the DNA that's pretty much in charge behind the scenes, will find itself on a burning platform and eventually get checkmated. In other words, whether as a Company or as a Human, give short shrift to 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality' (with The Ability To Strategically Innovate) at your own peril.
​

​
Companies are "all for one & one for all". Its what makes them Human as whole and sole with distinct personalities, but also cutting-edge. Why? Because just like Humans, Companies are prone to making serious mistakes or piling up opportunity costs that don't even register. The way out is to appreciate that just like any Human, Companies are blessed with intent but also find themselves in dicey situations. So instead of living dangerously, if you emphasize bottom-up situationality & top-down intentionality equally in the organization, you end up with not just strategy, not just innovation, but absolutely phenomenal 'Strategic Innovation'.
​

​
Companies need to embrace destiny, instead of embracing success or failure. Why? Because destiny is the real deal, and by nature, is infinitely tricky as neither 100% success nor 100% failure, but a unique combination lock of success n' failure that only you would know or only you can figure out.

​
Companies need to gravitate toward 'enterpreneurship' based on 'constant and oblivious situationalizing or intentionalizing' NOT "entrepreneurship" based on "rigid monolithic reputations & fragmented islands of expertise". And there's no choice in the matter when it comes to the pursuit of opportunities and advantages. Either you 'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle' in order to definitively find a path forward or remain derailed, paralyzed & in denial and become pathetic.

​
Companies require evolutions & revolutions. While evolutions are subliminal, revolutions are radical. While evolutions are based on situational circumstantiality and applicability, revolutions are based on intentional circumstantiality and applicability. But for both, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle Based On Circumstantiality And Applicability.

Its absolutely critical and imperative to appreciate

​
They say 'God Is In The Details'. We also like to think 'Intelligence Is In The Details' & 'God Is In The Planning'. But where do you go looking for details or a plan? In 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstances'. Basically, companies exist in terms of circumstances more than anything else. And invisible circumstances are usually serendipitous & profoundly subliminal. If circumstances don't enable, support or promote the company or industry, the numbers or any other data will never convert into fact and truth and reality. So rather than focusing on the all-too-obvious numbers or analyzing different kinds of self-fulfilling data when it comes to the quest for 'Strategic Innovation', focus on the details or planning. And where will you find the details or ability to plan? In subliminal, invisible circumstances - situational or intentional. And such definitive circumstances can only be detected if you 'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle'.

Just like the human body is composed of different systems, a company is composed of different groups and processes. So here's the question: how do you ensure you're good and right, better and more, and ultimately, whole and sole over time & over generations, so that you can move forward as One? By knowing that absolutely everything depends on 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate'. And for that, you have to 'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle'.

​
Companies just like Humans, exist in the here and now. And ironically, its the most elusive. Sooner or later, you'll either get stuck in the way things should be as innovation or the way things should've been as strategy. That takes away dexterity and agility when you need them the most. To get them back, you need to know that "the here and now" is all about 'Strategic Innovation', which in turn is all about 'The Next Step', which in turn is all about 'Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality', which ultimately gets enabled only if you 'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle'.

99% of Problem-Solving & Decision-Making is so called "inter-disciplinary" in the sense that it can fall through the cracks as undetectable or get completely mismanaged by any universally established "food-for-thought". And not only does it fundamentally make any world go round, but also revolutionary. And although Problem-Solving & Decision-Making might be the only 2 things of interest to companies, which one you choose (at the expense of the other) at some profound or serendipitous moment can make all the difference between the stuff of dreams (with facts and truths and realities) & the stuff of vapors (with derailment and paralysis and plausible deniability). For that, you have to 'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle Based On Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate'.

The Butterfly Effect cannot be ignored when it comes to Glory And Destiny, personal or professional, individual or collective. Seemingly innocuous things will add up over time with either trophies or catastrophes. You need to make a fundamental distinction between Big-Ticket/Small-Show & Small Ticket\Big Show. For that, you have to pay attention to Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate, which is only possible if and when you Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

The Corporate World is a subset of The Human World and its prone to getting filled up with anomalies that become undetectable. We bring to the table an incredibly powerful lens called 'Pseudo-Arorality' (a brand new terminology) that encapsulates Eloquent Abysmal Fraud | Elaborate Abominable Corruption. By intelligently detecting and then rooting out such Pseudo-Aroralities, we can help companies 'Come Back To A Future' | 'Invent A Future'.

Companies calculate ROI in everything they do because they don't want to be compromised. Although that's noble, Return On Investment cuts both ways, but MOST importantly, is never about the money. Its about Value & Price, which if human history is any guide, have proven to be 'infinitely TRICKY'. In a way, long before you end up in the gutter, you would've been aiming for it or the gutter would've been aiming for you. Its called 'The Butterfly Effect' based on 'The General Theory Of Integrity'. So while you don't want to be charitable, don't shy away from making 'A Show Of Integrity' when required as absolutely CRITICAL and IMPERATIVE. Ultimately, Selfishness Scales Very Well with Frequent Butterfly Effects based on The General Theory Of Integrity in The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

All Customers have 2 things in common as their 2 salient features (features that make them customers):
​
1. They're not meant to have Expertise
2. They're not defined by Reputation

Companies need to close the loop with their customers or "go full circle", which requires 'constant and oblivious situationalizing or intentionalizing'. And that's only possible if and when you Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

Companies tend to become victims of "a chain of balance" between individuality & collectivity. Eventually, shortcuts (for lack of individuality) & dirty politics (for lack of collectivity) take over and take away The Ability To Strategically Innovate. How do you get it back? Here's a stunning principle from The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle:
2 heads are not better than 1. 2 heads can be better than 1. 2 heads can be worse than 1.
1 head is not worse than 2. 1 head can be worse than 2. 1 head can be better than 2.
​
It depends on Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality.
Its the stuff of great leadership. Its the stuff of great hierarchies. Its the stuff of legend.

Imagine a boat in the middle of the ocean with no paddles and no engine and you in it. The absolutely fast and furious waves will still make sure you end up somewhere ashore. With no idea of anything, that island becomes all you have. So you learn to like it. And slowly but surely, it becomes life. Unfortunately, that's called becoming a victim of circumstances, and is always a risk whether as a Human or as a Company. The Way Out is to appreciate that in life, individually or collectively, everything depends on Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate. And for that, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

​
The stock market knows all too well that only a handful of companies are wealth creators for being glorious and destined. And given enough time, most of them tend to rot from within regardless of how well they started out. Why? Circumstantiality defines everything. Most companies eventually get drained of Circumstantiality or even worse, choose to fight Circumstantiality and resign themselves to a fate. Keeping a tab on Circumstantiality, whether people or processes, is the single greatest driver of survival and success. And for that, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.
​

​
If you don't know the circumstances or if you choose to go against circumstances, its disastrous because Problem-Solving & Decision-Making are circumstantially bound. So to ensure that Problem-Solving & Decision-Making are sound, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle based on Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality.

​
Being a company or a human is very TRICKY. Both are whole and sole. Both are in-sourced & close-sourced. Both have to invent a future or come back to a future. Both have to avoid serious mistakes and opportunity costs. Both have to look at solvable problems and makeable decisions. Both have to be on their own. Both have to achieve Glory And Destiny. So it helps to know that individually or collectively, personally or professionally, everything depends on Subliminal Situational Or Intentional Circumstantiality With The Ability To Strategically Innovate. And for that, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

The best sign of Intelligence & Maturity is when you can be trilemmatic. This is especially true with Problem-Solving & Decision-Making as the 2 biggest dilemmas facing Humanity:

Problem ---> Opportunity ---> Solve
​
Decide ---> Advantage ---> Make

​
The 'CULTURAL dna' of any company can be thought of as simply an accumulation of Problem-Solving & Decision-Making done over an extended space and time across levels and functions. As such, nobody, individually or collectively, at any level or in any function, can take ownership or responsibility for the 'CULTURAL dna' of a company by default, that ironically enough, is the single greatest determinant of company success. And so, it helps to know that the 'CULTURAL dna' is absolutely Circumstantial and Subliminal, for which you have to 'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle'.
​
Your 'CULTURAL dna' determines what you can do & can't do.
​
And that's PRECISLY WHY #InHouse is better than M&A:
​
1. Align all your Problem-Solving | Decision-Making with your 'CULTURAL dna' to address points of inflection
​
2. Align your 'CULTURAL dna' with Circumstantiality
​
3. Align your Circumstantiality with need for survival
​
4. Once you're on top of survival, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

What is 'The Butterfly Effect' based on 'The General Theory Of Integrity'?
​
Every now and then, there will be 'A Point Of Inflection' when Problem-Solving & Decision-Making become "do OR die". If you choose to make a horrible mess at such Points Of Inflection by treating them as frivolous, the long term effect or 'long TAIL' will force you to resign. They're called Points Of Inflection only because the difference between Right N Wrong / Good N Bad is 'crystal CLEAR'. What's required is 'A Show Of Integrity'. Just as all men are not born equal, all points in space and time are not born equal. The Butterfly Effect based on The General Theory Of Integrity can turn A Point Of Inflection into a rocket ship, and put you on an altogether different planet that you may not have even dreamed about or thought possible. But for that, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

Companies keep a track of time, but they don't keep a track of circumstances. That's horrible buffoonery because as much as history is a consequence of time, its also a consequence of circumstances.

'The Next Step' is based on Circumstantiality and Time. That's what makes it so incredibly powerful. You can manage time, but can you manage circumstances?

Companies need to move forward as whole (with dexterity) and sole (with agility), which is easier done than said. And so, it helps to brush up on Company 101:
​
If you've studied matrices in high-school math, you would know that a matrix is composed of rows & columns. Likewise, a company (in spite of its pyramidal structure) can be perfectly modeled as a Talented Matrix composed of equal and imperative nodes at the intersections of different levels and functions. These nodes have 2 salient features: authority & jurisdiction.
​
Authority is the ability to solve a problem or make a decision at a certain level & in a certain function. Jurisdiction is the privilege that such Problem-Solving & Decision-Making will not be 2nd guessed by any other node in the matrix - your boss or subordinates or laterally. In the best companies, 90% of employees enjoy authority & jurisdiction as it applies to their level & function in the company, which means that Problem-Solving & Decision-Making are truly distributed. Once Problem-Solving or Decision-Making have occurred at a certain node, the company can face the consequences but NOT do the Problem-Solving or Decision-Making all over again. The company can face the music but not re-write the lyrics.
​
(The Butterfly Effect Based On The General Theory Of Integrity is not only inescapable but very much 'in VOGUE' in any company as a 'Talented Matrix')
​
Basically, you're NOT ALLOWED to 2nd guess The Matrix.
​
That's cutting-edge (as required) on the condition that employees can be Mature & Intelligent, but MOST importantly, can circumstantially demonstrate integrity.
​
Unfortunately, in most companies with 10,000 employees and above, that's not the case. Employees develop their own agendas & their own models of power and success in the company. The end result is that, including the CEO, most employees have an acute sense of themselves, investors & customers, but they don't have a sense of the company.
​
And Therein Lies The Rub:
​
The allegiance of a company is NOT to investors or customers or employees. The allegiance of a company is to the company itself. WHY? Because a company can be personified. Its a legal entity. Its as living as any investor or customer or employee. A company compromising itself is a contradiction in terms and the most horrendous outcome possible even if it satisfies all other parties. And this question has come up many times in the conflict-of-interest paradox:
​
What should a company be trying to achieve?
​
Satisfy investors? Satisfy customers? Satisfy employees?
​
None of the above.
​
A company must satisfy itself in terms of
​

​
because that's what matters at THE - END as

​
And for that, you have to Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

A business process is a combination of Problem-Solving & Decision-Making. But its also a combination of Situational Circumstantiality & Intentional Circumstantiality.

As much as you're a person, a company can be personified (simply because its a legal entity). And even a 5-year old would know that life is not about money.

So there's definitely & definitively something else at work, which you need to figure out as you go along.

Imagine a hamster, beaver, penguin, parrot & dolphin discussing how they can encourage diversity & inclusiveness in their company. It would be MOST IDIOTIC.

​
A problem to be solved is only as important as who will solve the problem
​
A decision to be made is only as important as who will make the decision
​
Humanity is all about Problem-Solving & Decision-Making. But there are 2 things to appreciate as fundamentals, which if you screw up, take away all the flavor with the remains of the day being as not even worth a mention:
​
1. Solving A Problem or Making A Decision is pristine BY DEFAULT. It can only take place in a clean room. It can never take place in a cesspool.
​
2a. A problem that is not appealing to you might be appealing to somebody else. A problem that is not appealing to somebody else might be appealing to you. Its the stuff of
​
Man & God | Value & Price
​
2b. A decision that is not appealing to you might be appealing to somebody else. A decision that is not appealing to somebody else might be appealing to you. Its the stuff of

​
Point being that all problems are not meant for all people. All decisions are not meant for all people. Your ability to solve a problem or make a decision goes hand-in-hand with your passion for it. And both your ability as well as your passion are strictly a function of #CircumstantialityAndTime (NOT razzmatazz).

Technologies, Products & Markets are always in motion. Boundaries can get redefined. What was applicable today may not be applicable tomorrow. What is inapplicable today might become applicable tomorrow. It depends on Circumstantiality. Our circumstantially bound model of Technology, Product & Market as a Materialistic Trinity allows companies to be relevant in the very least, routinely throw a punch & even daringly become an industry-defining world heavyweight champion.

​
How do you come up with a Technology Feature? How do you come up with a Product Feature? How do you come up with a Market Feature?
​
When you consider any featured industry landscape and specifically, innovations in Technologies, Products & Markets across industries in the last 50 years, its managers NOT consultants who've proven themselves. WHY? PRECISELY BECAUSE managers are In-House with access to Circumstantiality And Applicability. And so, in order to make consulting formidable, it too needs to become In-House with access to Circumstantiality And Applicability.

​
There's something that companies need even more than great technologies, great products & great markets. And what's that? Great 'Strategic Innovation'. The writing has been on the wall for ages. Even best of breed companies have gone sideways or fallen by the wayside for a lack of 'Strategic Innovation' in spite of having head-turning technologies, products & markets. So how should you think about this dilemma? Companies require cadence when it comes to 'Strategic Innovation' more than anything else under the hood, and not leave it to chance or conference room informalities or whims & fancies of the executive suite. That's where we come in. We 'Make It Official'.

'Fraud & Corruption' are as fundamental, omnipresent & omnipotent in The Human World as breathing itself. Basically, for every million ways to achieve something significant as Fact and Truth and Reality, there are a billion ways to indulge in 'Fraud & Corruption' by leaving a trail of breadcrumbs of Fact And Truth And Reality. Strategic Innovation is as much about Inventing A Future as its about Coming Back To A Future. We bring a brand new terminology to the table called 'Pseudo-Aroralities'. Using this lens based on The Natural World, it becomes very easy to detect a trail of breadcrumbs, and THEN, root out 'Fraud & Corruption' in The Human World as yet another way to arrive at

A company is composed of people. A company is composed of processes. And more often than not for ailing companies, BOTH ARE SUSPECT. Companies create serious liabilities for themselves over time with grossly flawed people & grossly flawed processes. And as the liabilities grow, it becomes increasingly painful to take a U-turn. So just like an annual checkup with your family doctor to maintain good health, conduct a "people audit" & "process audit" as frequently as possible. And both these checkpoints are firmly rooted in Subliminal Situational & Intentional Circumstantialities, which are only possible if and when You Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle.

If success is Mount Everest, failure is Mariana Trench. They're both inevitable to the same degree. What they have in common however is being perfectly aligned with Circumstantiality And Applicability. That's what companies need to worry about - not success or failure per se. And for that, #YouHaveToEnterTheNaturalWorldWithLawOfTheJungle

Massive Point Of Inflection:
In-House Manager vs In-House Consultant
Laws of good management break down completely just like the laws of physics, unless of course, you
'Enter The Natural World With Law Of The Jungle' based on subliminal situational or intentional circumstantiality with the ability to strategically innovate
​
AND PICK THE RIGHT ONE!
​
Why does the history of business show that companies get killed in spite of great management? A lack of great consulting.
​
'but WHY'?
​
Managerial Excellence that is taken absolutely for granted nowadays is based on Managers having access to Circumstantiality And Applicability, which is In-House.
​
And therefore, through rational logic, Consulting Excellence must be based on Consultants having access to Circumstantiality And Applicability, which is again In-House.
​
So finally, in order to make companies indestructible with
Glory And Destiny | Prophecy And Odyssey
​
In-House Consulting is 'The Dual Complement' that In-House Managers desperately require, and in fact and truth and reality, have been waiting for from the beginning.

PurpleSteer In-House Consulting
"If managers were held accountable to the same standard as consultants in the last 100 years, all companies would've gone bankrupt."
With almost 100 years of Management Consulting we need to take stock. The last 50 years at least have witnessed Managerial Excellence aplenty but not so much Consulting Excellence. Why is there something called Managerial Excellence that we can take absolutely for granted nowadays, and why is Consulting Excellence so hard to find (if at all)?
Managerial Excellence is based on Circumstantiality And Applicability, which is In-House. And so, Consulting in order to be Excellent as based on Circumstantiality And Applicability must also become In-House. In order to understand this, consider the interface between a Company & a Management Consulting firm. A company is composed of thousands of people at different levels & functions. A Management Consulting firm claims to be able to help a company with thousands of people at different levels & functions. But almost always, a Management Consulting firm will only work with the executive suite or the head of the company. And the assumption with that approach is that the head of the company represents the whole and soul of the company. If a consulting firm can impact the executive suite, the rest of the company will follow suit.
​
But that's not how a company works day-in-day-out.
​
A company in spite of its pyramidal structure, can be perfectly modeled as a 'Talented Matrix' composed of EQUAL and IMPERATIVE nodes at the intersections of different levels & functions. These nodes have 2 salient features: authority & jurisdiction. Authority is the ability to solve a problem or make a decision at a certain level & in a certain function. Jurisdiction is the privilege that such Problem-Solving & Decision-Making will not be 2nd guessed by any other node in the matrix - your boss or subordinates or laterally. In the best companies, 90% of employees enjoy authority & jurisdiction as it applies to their level & function in the company, which means that Problem-Solving & Decision-Making are truly distributed. Once Problem-Solving or Decision-Making have occurred at a certain node, the company can face the consequences, but not do the Problem-Solving or Decision-Making all over again.
The company can face the music but not re-write the lyrics.
​
The Butter Fly Effect Based On The General Theory Of Integrity is not only inescapable but very much 'in VOGUE' in any company as a 'Talented Matrix'.
​
Basically, you're NOT ALLOWED to 2nd guess The Matrix. That's what Traditional Management Consulting is guilty of.
​
Because Problem-Solving & Decision-Making in a company are truly distributed across nodes empowered with authority & jurisdiction, the CEO of a company is just one more node in The Matrix. In short, everything doesn't add up to the CEO in spite of the pyramidal hierarchy. The authority & jurisdiction inherent in the 'Talented Matrix' of any company means that the CEO is only exposed to a convenient subset of Problem-Solving & Decision-Making, which may not even be relevant. And that's when companies require consulting.
And that's PRECISELY WHY a consulting firm must be In-House with access to Circumstantiality And Applicability across levels and functions. The notion that helping the CEO or the executive suite with their Problem-Solving & Decision-Making means that you've taken the entire company forward in space and time, is LUDICROUS. WHY? The 'Talented Matrix' that defines any company EVEN MORE than its "Pyramidal Hierarchy".
​
A Serious-Mistake or Opportunity-Cost at absolutely any node in The Matrix has the potential to turn the company upside-down & inside-out AND YOU WON'T EVEN KNOW!
​
So just like Managers are In-House with access to Circumstantiality And Applicability, Consulting must become In-House with access to Circumstantiality And Applicability.
​
Here's another way to look at it:
​
A company's highest responsibility or allegiance is to itself, not customers or investors or employees. WHY? Because a company is a legal entity as much any Human or Animal. It can be personified. And so, a company must satisfy itself in terms of
​
Glory And Destiny | Prophecy And Odyssey
​
because that's what matters at THE - END as
​
Man & God | Value & Price
​
Managerial Excellence is always based on the fundamental assumption that a company's highest responsibility is to itself. And so, Consulting Excellence with the same assumption would require it to become In-House just like In-House Managers with access to Circumstantiality And Applicability.
Being In-House is the only way that Managers or Consultants can strive to make an impact on a company that is self-consistent by definition, with its highest responsibility being to itself in terms of
​
Glory And Destiny | Prophecy And Odyssey
​
And for that, you have to #EnterTheNaturalWorldWithLawOfTheJungle!
