Green Revolution: Is it a Deception? Posted This Week by Rahim Thawer, Managing Director of Disruptive Strategies Inc

As we continue to experience inconsistencies in the financial structures of organizations due to external economic factors, we find inverse ratios are a success with constant influx of Green Projects! Substantial investment is being cultivated into the Green Technologies which is not only going to revolutionize each and every industry but also bankrupt many organizations due to requirements that are going to be set forth by public entities to incorporate these technologies into everyday uses. The Green Revolution is engulfing every continent and growing rapidly.

By no means am I opposed to the environmentally friendly products, or Green Revolution as a whole, but evaluating these technologies on the cost structure and pricing index models, the payout is much longer to procure its benefits on the monetary standpoint. It is purely a deceptive model that is bound to fail, but of course, how else can we make our profits, hire individuals to create these products and compete on a global scale. We are a progressive society that is driven by emotions, so why not channel them into appropriate uses and make sound decisions by incorporating budgetary aspect.

While the Green Revolution has already begun, we need to make it a part of our daily lives and understand the methodologies and longevity of these products. We will be seeing a total transformation of the whole humankind and the worlds we exist in as this technology is being echoed in every sector and industry. It would be rather impulsive and oblivious to think of this revolution as something insignificant. The government bodies and mega corporations have been spending millions if not billions into making this a reality and sooner than later it will happen. So I say embrace yourself, but make yourself a part of it by either innovating, investing, or engineering it, because it is approaching fast!

Financial Reform & Capitalism: A Paradox? Posted This Week by Rahim Thawer, Managing Director of Disruptive Strategies Inc

A profound and enlightening argument can be made on either side of the fence relative to financial reform, however my deference and fidelity goes towards opposing the financial reform in particularly certain highlights which will not only restrict lending but border the founding fundamentals of America!

The politicians may very well have a convoluted way of presenting the Financial Reform; however it is a civil responsibility of each citizen or entrepreneur to understand the long term ramification of restricting growth of these businesses which are directly proportional to the lending arena. No longer are the banking models viable for today’s economy, let alone of tomorrow. Capitalism has to be re-invented through not so traditional channels, but through dynamic and agile strategies only to be formed by a few, who will lead to the new heights, followed my masses.

But of course, we are brazen yet ambiguous and I feel we need to rethink of the path we are paving for the future of American Corporations. Regardless of what influence this bill may have, we need to create parallel synergies with our business associates, partners, vendors and restructure not only our operations, but attitude towards monetary gains or losses. Creativity has always played a conspicuous role in the history of America from the time of Henry Ford to current social media boom such as Facebook. So I say, don’t just engineer it, but re-engineer it! After all, all that you have created is bound to fail from computers to cars to even central heating device in your house! So, re-engineer it!

‘Double Dip” Recession? Posted This Week by Rahim Thawer, Managing Director of Disruptive Strategies Inc

We continue to experience high unemployment, Europe’s debt crisis, quivering housing market descending stock prices. The US economic recovery still remains a concern and we continue to see it trending towards a double dip recession. Despite unprecedented fiscal stimulus, fears of a double dip recession persist through 2010! Can this be an opportunity for investors, corporations, companies to capitalize on? Absolutely!

There is constant negativity that is being channeled through media to scare investors and companies and to shake consumer confidence to slow the recovery process. The media and the elite few constantly re-visit the recent collapse of the financial system and structure according to the trending market analysis.

While there may be a hindrance in the financial system to produce monetary capital to sustain the current financial model, that is obsolete, the opportunities do exists and businesses simply have to restructure their daily operations based on various external factors to survive this desolate cycle. Recession not only brings detrimental outcomes but also benevolent liberty in almost every field, the key is to identify them and for strong short term strategies. The future is of those who are creative and are not intimidated by financial agitation but rather put their best foot forward and go full force. This is the time to revisit old concepts and re-strategize to rebuild your businesses and let your competition experience a triple dip recession!
