“The point about ecosystems is that they appear to follow biological rules rather than machine-like rules. They require flexibility because relationships change more frequently; they are more organic. Relationships and coevolution require a different corporate mindset from the command-and-control mindset of the past.”
This is a good insight from McNurlin and Sprague. Business lives are becoming a simbiotic thing. Businesses have to look after each other more than kill each other.

Take the case of Starbucks Phils. In Starbucks, they hire most of these baristas not for the love of coffee but how they can think of more ways to improve, mix and match these coffees. They even give exams to test how good the barista is. So if a barista wears a black apron, she or he is a coffee master.
====================
I just hope Rustan and Starbucks Phils give Barako a chance in their menu. For the information of everyone, Barako is not a robusta, it's a Liberica, the big bean with strong scent, originally believed from Spain. And my personal opinion, Barako is not a gourmet coffee, it's better as an everyday coffee. :)
