Are You Stupid?

Posted by: Frank Cowley on April 22, 2009 |

Don’t get excited about the title today – my thoughts are well meaning and not intended for calling you out.  For those who have been readers for awhile, you know that on Wednesdays I often write something a little from the hip – today is no exception, and I’ve got a bone to pick – though I will attempt gentleness in my approach.

You cannot possibly imagine how many times people ask me to describe what Adaugeo Development does.  How exactly do we “help good companies become better”?  Honestly, the question often dumbfounds me; until I consider it in terms of today’s title.  Follow this link to get a quick low-down on the definition from Merriam-Webster.  Now that you’re back, did you notice how, particularly, definition 1B talks of unintelligent decisions or acts… and then definition 4B offers some synonyms for perplexing and exasperating situations?  I submit to you that often 4B is a result of 1B.  Simply put, Adaugeo Development exists to help 4B never occur by ensuring that 1B is remedied!

No, I’m not calling anybody stupid.  However, if you realize a situation within your business and don’t know exactly how to fix the problem; then respond by doing nothing – may I submit that you are acting with unintelligent behavior?  Maybe you don’t realize a situation, but you have an intuition suggesting that things should be better than they are, and you aren’t sure why.  You see the word unintelligent suggests a very negative feeling, when in reality it merely means uninformed… you lack the necessary information to effect a good and clear decision.  The mere fact that you would sense an intuitive thought, yet not know the cause is proof enough of an uninformed state of mind.

Okay, so maybe I called you out a little.  If the shoe fits… you should consider finding a source for helping you uncover the source of your intuition.  That’s what we do!
