Helping everyone help everyone?

 0 Comments- Add comment Written on 17-Dec-2010 by WhymanDesign

Want to help everyone help each other solve problems with innovation? Please help. There are several sections below...

We would like to help anyone wanting to help others. For instance  can we help you using the http://www.TRAIDmark.org business model (where you get rich with performance pay and you gain from added goodwill created by donating funds to charity?) This is essentially a cooperative or Not for Profit but where any surplus funds are invested in NEW Innovative Not for Profit activity that solves different social problems innovatively.

It solves several issues.
A. It invests any wealth generated into more Innovation creating Institutional Innovation
B. It stops organisations getting large (large organisations become inefficient)
C. It stops anyone running any organisation from getting corrupted by power/wealth as all organisations are small and efficient.
D. It rewards success (through the application of Innovation) in a clever way that encourages selfless hard work by enabling the successful people who use the business model to go on an invent then develop new innovations so they create the freedom co continually make new ways to help others. It also rewards hard work with performance pay so anyone motivated by greed can still get rich (without owning the organisation).



1.
Would it be possible to help enhance what you are working on using the power of social media to encourage more people to help with your existing and future projects using crowdsourcing?

2.
We are creating a charity crowdfunding collaboration drupal site using
pioneering open source modules and were hoping we could develop this
with you to enhance your great work?

We are also aiming to use the site to collect donated funds for
charity by using a re skinned version of different software for
charitable use as a not for profit?

http://pledgie.com/campaigns/7538 has more details and contact @whymandesign

3.
Would it be possible to work with you to make a re skinned
version of existing software so we can help the public to solve
other social issues (Ideally using the http://www.TRAIDmark.org business
structure)? Maybe working with someone like
http://www.ONEworldHEALTH.org or http://www.earth.org which
is closing so maybe this is something I could help you take on so
everyone can share local knowledge? Also can http://www.WEBiversity.org
share video's and create http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org with your
team? http://www.WhymanDesign.com

The aim is to create custom branded open source software (so the same
software that exists is used to solve different social issues). Can we
do this starting with enhancing the http://www.WEBiversity.org and
http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org prototype sites?

4.
We created TRUSTlibrary.org which has access to 50 shops that are spread
across the uk and we were hoping to work with you to use the spaces. We
are aiming to install the libraries in any university and were hoping we
could do this with you by working with the your contacts. All that is
needed is for the network and universities to be informed of the
Trustlibrary.org volunteer org so we can talk to them about how easy it
is for them to create TrustLibrary spaces.

5.
We are looking to work with Corporate Social Responsibility and Business Training teams to create real world charitable projects while helping teams to learn and develop.

6.
We are looking to use empty spaces shops or offices while saving you money on those empty spaces at the same time. If you have or know of someone who has an empty space please contact @whymandesign. These could range from a corner of a reception area to a field and can be empty for one evening a week to all year round!

Competitions is Dead, Long Live Collaboration

 0 Comments- Add comment Written on 17-Dec-2010 by WhymanDesign

 

As the world is linked up the age old proven selfless collaboration techniques are proven to be more beneficial than then now out of date selfish competition techniques because reputation is in the hands of the social media populous (which is great for everyone so do not be scared:)

Selfishness people could only get away with it if they did not get caught (competitors, conman, robbers, thief's, rapists, murderers... all have the same selfish motivation of beating others so they can get what they want).

The internet enables us all to...

A. Reward and share average, good and great work (Carrot)
B. (compassionately educate) Punish and ignore bad or worse behaviors just like the way you treat an immature child so they learn to play nicely (stick).


This is an AMAZINGLY exciting CULTURAL change that is already happening that we are all part of and can help enforce by..

A. Reporting a problem using open social tools such as Twitter & Facebook...
B. Suggest a solution when reporting the problem
C. And highlight people who are doing great work in any field

What are you doing already and how can I help you? What would you like to do? Tweet to @whymandesign and Ill creatively help enhance what your doing.

1.
New ways of thinking as a global community of people wanting to be happy together.
(relearning the local community of friends, cultural mentality in an interlinked global community of friends of friends).

Now the World Wide Web has linked up the world using the Power of the Internet we can and should all think differently about how we interact for several reasons (actually rediscovering what humans/animals have done for 000,000's of years before the industrial revolution created cities)!!!

A.
You can help more people by GIVING away what you make so that the 000,000,000's of people on this planet can use them (imagine how stupid it would be to keep something closed so that only 1 person could use it). This applies to everything (money, property, resources, ideas, data...). This selfless generosity has a knock on effect as it enables us all to continue reminding and teaching each other how great life CAN and IS when we help each other creating a spiral of

B.
Charitably help anyone we see in difficulty be it anything from recording the problem on facebook/twitter to actively going out to help them (be it a homeless person or someone stuck in an office job for life).

2.
Mobile phones are reinventing how we think again in the next wave of creative innovation.
Now we can interact with anyone in any way (video/voice/text/image...) ANYWHERE in the world.

This means that everyone can help everyone everywhere all the time! What are the most important things that need to be solved first? Education through entertainment? How about using existing free educational resources and share them for all free? http://www.WEBiversity.org


The Rules have changed...

The Collaboration Culture inherently encourages (through peer review so it is up to us all to HELP each other play as nicely as possible:)...
Selflessness
Compassion
collaboration


What fundamental or key areas are/not part of the Collaboration Culture that need to be included?
Democracy (or a better way of getting the 'greatest happiness for the greatest number' [or for EVERYONE])
Sustainability
Charity
Digital Equality

How to enhance ANY organisation or startup so you become more successfull for FREE

 0 Comments- Add comment Written on 17-Dec-2010 by WhymanDesign

How to enhance ANY organisation or startup so you become more successfull for FREE &...

A. Help everyone collaborate together on charity work,
B. Save lives by donating NET profit (after R&D costs),
C. Gain lots of new customers & suppliers & volunteers who want to help,
D. Gain more goodwill so you get a cumulative mass enhancing your organisations success
E. get personally richer through performance pay by giving away ownership of the organization/company to the world!

http://www.Traidmark.org FREE Business Structure EVERYONE can use = YOUR WORK + 100% Net Profit Philanthropy (spent on INNOVATIVE NOT FOR PROFIT WORK to help/save lives)

It sounds impossible but has been proven to work by cooperatives for ooo's of years...

http://www.TRAIDmark.org explains the full benefits where you agree to pledge to donate surplus funds you generate into NEW INNOVATIVE charitable work which attracts customers so you gain more success and get rich with performance pay WHILE saving lives by donating funds raised to NEW INNOVATIVE charitable work (that you can create if you want to).
The more you give the more you get. http://www.TRAIDmark.org

You could say that the TRAIDmark.org business structure is halfway between a Charity and a Company where you get the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS with caring compassion for everyone AND the Innovation that enables you to help everyone efficiently.


1. INVESTORS
Investors can invest in startups and gain by being paid performance pay as a member of the team without owning the startup. This means that they can donate funds into new startups (which can save them funds in tax too!) and get paid performance pay for their work enhancing it. This means that the startup will forever be run in the best interest of the customer AND can fund innovations that benefit everyone.

2. ENTREPRENEURS
Anyone can set up their own enterprise at almost now cost using the web as a bootstrapped startup so can use this free business structure to help then succeed while also charitably helping others.

3.CUSTOMERS / EMPLOYEES / SUPPLIERS
Customers & Employees can demand that this happens to any company organisation or government department as it is in the best interests for everyone. The best way to do this is to contact the owner / Board members directly by contacting them on the phone/twitter.

 

4. BANKRUPT / RECEIVERS / ADMINISTRATORS
Any organisation or company that closes down can be saved by doing this. Either the assets can be taken away to pay off debts and the rest of the organisation can be donated to a charity OR the whole organisation can be turned into a Not For Profit Charity (which has positive tax savings). This will instantly SAVE JOBS in the organisation and give it a goodwill boost that will enable it to be saved from bankruptcy (like a phoenix).


Cooperatives have been successfully growing fro many years such as http://www.co-operativebank.co.uk & http://www.co-operative.coop & they can be enhanced by using the TRAIDmark.org model to spend the funds they generate on Innovative new charitable work.

Here are a few organisations already doing this (many donate 1-50% but that is often just a token gesture where as 100% helps save/improve many more lives:)...

http://www.the-clarity-project.com

http://www.johnlewis.com
http://www.co-operative.coop
