My fantasy – becoming extinct

I just posted this one facebook:

My fantasy

I’m sitting in a rodinhood open house in the 3rd row. A guy next to me says, “Hi, what’s your name? How long have you been a member of The Rodinhoods? Do u like it?”

I smile and say, “I’ve been an old member. Let’s talk post the session…”

I slowly slink away, walk outside the conference and cry tears of joy…

Founders become extinct when a real network is created.

I want to become extinct…

 

Thoughts for discussion:

– founders are important only to kickstart something

– the fact that someone is always better than you is reason enough to pass the baton

– true independence comes only when a company or brand or a movement is free of a person’s identity

– who knows off hand the people who started landmark forum or burning man or more importantly TED (i mean don’t go looking up google)

– making a founder extinct makes a movement almost perpetual!
