I watched an interview with the fine actress and director Emma Thompson today. She talked about how she wants to make films that are not geared or manufactured for just one generation. She talked about how she wants films to span the generations because of the layers of entertainment contained within them. So that families can go together, enjoy the film together...enjoy their enjoyment together.
Then she remarked that when a film is outstanding there is not just a relationship between the characters and the audience member.....but also a relationship between the audience member and who they are watching it with...
This made me think of business...you know I truly believe that employee engagement is at the heart of any great company. You cannot sell experience, hope, enjoyment etc if the people selling it don't feel for themselves.
When you are a parent it is a 3 way relationship between child and both parents.
When you are a manager it is a relationship between an individual and how the team dynamic works
When you are a business it is the relationship between the leaders, the team and the customers.
