Exposure of pain points, is it good or bad?

In the UK we are justifyably proud of Ellen MacArthur for sailing round the world faster than anyone else. One thing that is part of her character is exposing that she is human, that she is fallable. Translate that into an organisation and what do you get? Do the same with society, nationhood...

Traditionally society, companies and individuals hide their problems. My parents in common with their generation do not talk about ailments, even in front of family. But that is changing.

Right or wrong the advent of blogs permit people to openly express to the world their opinion on the life, unverse et al with termedous ease. Sometimes as employees they may overstep the bounds of "company regulations", possibly as ex-employees they feel more "freedom" and if the separation was not mutually happy (is it ever?) then perhaps they do that with a tinge of angst.

Being an entrepreneur is not easy. In building PopG, one rule I have kept to my heart is "there are no rules." Therefore I have defined PopG as a new company, a company with new mores, my mores. Readers of my blog, website, forums should get a sense of touching something real, something tangible. In this virtual world we co-habit we are alive, and we should be proud of it.
