Doing One Thing Very Well = Success
If an organization, whether it be a company or a government, can execute just one thing successfully with good sense, then there is hope and a potentially prosperous future for that org. Good God, that sounded like an excerpt from The Economist.
The above statement is actually my personal reflection on Taiwan. I noticed recently one thing that Taiwan has been executing quite successfully (besides the High Speed Rail — which is awesome and very well done). What is it Tony? Well, Taiwan has been doing an excellent job of attracting international first tier artists to perform in Taipei. A superb job. Some artists that visited (or are visiting) this year include:
1. Diana Krall
2. Linkin Park
3. Paul Potts (of European Idol fame)
4. Vitas (Russian opera singer)
5. L Arc en Ciel (Japanese band)
Seeing posters of these global acts around town really enhances the image and reputation of Taiwan. It’s almost like seeing a highly reputable list of clientele on a company’s website. Given that Taiwan is not one of the very well-known or often mentioned spots in the world, I think it’s awesome that these highly influential artists are paying a visit to Taiwan. It actually benefits both parties because both the visitng acts and the Taiwanese people are exposed to new culture and language. I patiently await the day when the word ‘Taipei’ brings up as positive and vibrant an image as ‘Tokyo’ does. The act of inviting important people to Taiwan is definitely a good first step.
Bottom line: If you are creating a brand or company (or any service for that matter), first do one thing exceptionally well. Then, sustain and expand. Case in point: Google.
