Feng Shui Governance

(with apologies for complete lack of artistic merit)

feng shui governance
plan, influence, and conduct
policy for all

from boardroom to bits
everyone get on board
a single train forward

a balanced approach
harmonious existence
with stakeholders all

set tone at the top
the key of transparency
all must understand

solving all problems
a terrible goal to bear
just cut barriers

how to change things now
like escape from klein bottle
reverse of trip in

business objectives
publicly painted for all
now all can align

our key resources
named, owned, prioritized, staffed
requirements sketched

cooperation
embrace management’s vision
collaboration

internal control
believable proof for all
this is a good thing

need innovation
old way causes much sadness
delightful change now

who must get what done
true responsibility
good authority

what must get done when
relate business to people
and goal them quite well

when must it get done
everything can’t be first
true order defined

where does it happen
are all things prepared for it
measure twice, cut once

how to accomplish
training, coaching, mentoring
lead by example

why is it crucial
all must recite the drivers
to you and to me

it’s about people
enable them to succeed
show you care about them

expect and inspect
balanced scorecard works for most
dashboards are fun, too

you are not there yet
a continuous journey
goals ever-changing

quite learned you are
required knowledge deep inside
express yourself now

P.S. Although I though I was the first to use “feng shui governance” as a term, I noticed that there was a single hit in Google (a three-word GoogleWhack!) used by a Mr. Foldvary back in 1999 in a somewhat different context.
