Enterprises are a lot like human beings in their aging process. The longer an enterprise/organization has been around, the more likely it is to show many of the signs of aging that humans display; a bureaucracy that bogs down like rheumatic limbs, slow take up on new tools and techniques, a tendency to quickly pooh pooh every innovation as gung-ho lack of experience.
You cannot take it for granted that the ideas that you espoused when you launched your enterprise are still valid today. Old enterprises like old people insist on the good old days. Guess what! It's a brand new day. However good you might have been with a typewriter, you are no use to anyone today except perhaps in a museum.
As your enterprise grows older as it inevitably will, don't let your mind set into certain patterns. Stay open to new ideas.
