Tiny little errands...

… Can kill big monster companies!”*

*Freely translated from the Swedish farmer-expression: “Liten tuva kan stjälpa stort lass”

How many potentially successful stories ended in a failed international drivers-license application?

Probably not many but if you add all extremely creativity-killing and mega-boring documents one must – first look for and then – read and fill out and send to someone else who later will return the document with a little note - as only visible change - saying:

“You spelled your first name with a K. Oskar. Please change to Oscar and file again.”

If you add all those documents to the drivers-license document and then pile and stuff them in a black bag you could call that bag “Oskar’s bag”.

That would be my contribution to Business Literature. Porter’s five forces, the Swotty thing, vision/mission/goal etc. and “Oskar’s bag”.

Porter’s five forces will help you through Oskar’s bag. Will-power, ninja-twist-kicks, secret soda, great friends and all the time in the world, and you will manage to pull off the admin-part!

Happy accounting!

Oskar

(Ps. The Oskar/Oscar example is fake…truth is much worse.)
