Maybe Small really is the new BIG.
Let me start by saying awards and trophies don’t drive us…results do.
But sometimes it happens. As a followup to receiving the St. John’s Board of Trade Excellence award for The IDEA Factory our Chief Idea Officer, Kevin Casey was “required” to give a speech.
So, he did exactly the opposite of a speech. The last thing the world needs is another speech.
In about 20 minutes, Kevin delivered a visual journey on “Being Small is Big” (no bad powerpoint slides live here) which featured 7 ways companies can learn to think and act smaller. Real life examples of how even big companies can stop hiding behind call centres and voicemails.
Enjoy the view.

Good speech Kevin!
Is it bad I had to look up WTF synergy meant?
…oh it means cooperation or a combined effort…
Would have loved to see the entire presentation, You are so “RIGHT”
…and Congrat’s on the Excellence Award, much deserved!
Well done Mr. Casey – not one boring slide in the bunch – short and punchy, just like a well executed cartwheel!!
Kevin, you are reversing the old trends that “they must do that better on the mainland” and you are proving every day that caring, creative people can do great things right here.
I also love what you have done with your great efforts at Christmas to assist the less fortunate. You have a special place at the North Pole and Santa would love to have you and the other elves as part of his Christmas team.
AWESOME job Kevin!! We can all learn from this!
Excellent Kevin! Loved the WestJet example. Based on my experience with Air Canada this week, they (AC) seem to be taking some notes from their competitor.
This was very refreshing to watch….thanks Kevin….never saw you drive home the anti-speech so well….right when i dropped the smalltime from my motion media../.DANG!
Awesome. Very insightful. Loved it!
Hey gang
thanks to all of you for taking the time to watch my 22 minute rant – I appreciate how time starved each of your are and there was 2200 other people/companies vying for your attention the same day you took the time to watch the presentation – I feel privileged and thanks for taking the time to post your comments – onward we go
In case you were wondering, The IDEA Factory manta these days (it can change) is ‘Disrupt but alway connect’. If we just disrupt, then we interrupt. That’s not on. That the old way. (its how Pop Tarts became famous – interrupt, buy ads, sell more, buy more ads. Repeat as needed until we buy em and pop em in the toaster.

ouch – excuse my spelling above – is it just me or are the blackberry keys getting smaller?
