No, there’s not much competition between puppeteers in general because everyone’s working their own style. Jim Henson, creator of The Muppets.

If you are still competing with the crowd, trying to look like everyone else, matching their prices and trotting out the same old ideas that clearly are not working, maybe it’s time to rewrite your playbook.

We are in an era now where competing with the crowd isn’t nearly good enough because in this new, social media context, increasingly it is the crowd that decides what is going to happen next, not you.

To grow your enterprise or advance your career in today’s hard scrabble environment, like Kermit and his friends you have to work smarter, continually innovate and, mostly importantly – work your own style.
