Superpowers and YOU.

Superman and Spiderman have superpowers. What are yours?

This article explains how to find and develop an organisation’s superpower to produce superior business outcomes. The superpower is best ‘seen’ when the organisation’s capabilities are put to work by the employees. The VECTOR model of six elements explains how to create and use this superpower.

What if I apply this super idea to individuals like you and me? I recast each element of the VECTOR model and created new meanings and prescriptions for myself. Let me show you how!

Vision becomes my expectation, but more realistic, simpler and more controllable than in a business firm. The employees I don’t have comprise of my network of peers, colleagues and friends. Do I give and assist them, enough? How well and often do we interact? Culture is what I do most often, seen in my habits and rituals that I must often re-examine for value, waste and effect. Technology (like AI) scares some, excites and bores others. Whether I like it or not, I must not avoid it – else, it will bypass me, and I will suffer forever for my apathy, laziness and arrogance. I am organised so that I deliver on my commitments. Finally, my routines are my processes (skilled actions that follow a tested and consistent path) that use my resources to meet my goals.

How do you gain from the discovery and application of your superpowers? You could earn a better reputation. You could influence (and instruct, guide, train and mentor) others earlier than before. You would meet expectations and commitments. Your society may bestow more authority because of your superior ability. You could do more with much less effort than before.

Do you see more gains (some interrelated) when I use my superpowers? Do tell!

I used the VECTOR elements, long before the model appeared as an acronym in the article. Beginning at the Big Bang, I went around in circles, like a pup in search of its tail. Next followed many bouts of overthinking. Then, quite by accident (of course, I don’t know how it happened!), I discovered small routines that became my superpowers after some experiments and repeated use.

I am always grateful for my overthinking and routines that continue to produce deep insights for me, even now. They often reshape my superpowers.

I cannot fly or stop trains like Superman or climb or swing between buildings like Spidey. But their superpowers cannot solve my problems as well as mine can.
