520 3  The fundamental goal of any business is to be different--
       to be better than those with whom it is competing. Every 
       company should be on a journey to be the preferred 
       provider of products or services to its markets by 
       offering a great customer/client experience. A preferred 
       provider is the company that customers and clients 
       preferentially want to do business with, and often can 
       charge a premium for what they provide. The fundamental 
       goal of any individual is to be different--to be better 
       than those with whom they are competing for that next job,
       whether internally or externally at a new company. Their 
       goal is to demonstrate tothe hiring manager that they are 
       the best choice for that position. This book teaches 
       leaders of companies how to be different than their 
       competitors and individuals pursuing their careers how to 
       be different than their peers, based on personal 
       experience serving in the trenches as a CEO as well as a 
       board member of successful global corporations.
