Komodo 2014
How to run a global business

KomodoStart by facing
your dragons

When the new world was being
mapped 500 years ago, any
gaps were marked with the
words “Here be dragons.”
Where are your dragons?

What were you doing
30 years ago?

Big Brother is the
enigmatic dictator of
Oceania, a totalitarian
state taken to its
utmost logical
consequence – where
the ruling Party wields
total power for its own
sake over the
inhabitants.

Eurasia was
established when US
and Imperial soldiers
withdrew from
continental
Europe, thus the
USSR conquered
Europe against slight
opposition

While there’s a
culture of big brother,
there’s a counter-
culture of individual
empowerment

intelligence out there, we forget
to grow intelligence down here...)

“ F r e e y o u r m i n d . ”
~ M o r p h e u s

Data flow, video & mobile are
decreasing our attention
and increasing our
expectation.
Your enterprise is no longer
a fixed house on land, but a
moving ship at sea.

Wave 1: World in Flow
One Byte = One Character
(“hello” is 5 bytes)
One Gigabyte = 1 billion bytes
(truck full of paper)
One Exabyte = 1 billion x 1 billion bytes
(5 exabytes = all information created by humanity up to 1960)
One Zettabyte = 1,000 exabytes
(4,000 exabytes = all information uploaded in 2013 alone)

from a copy school serving
copywriters to a TV channel

serving big companies with
P.O.S. systems to retailers with
the new wave of mobile
payments

My new book engages the
reader with an online test that
starts with who they are and
where they want to go.
Books don’t have to be a
“one size fits all.”

We don’t need information. We need direction.
To get direction, start by knowing who you are, where
you are, and where you want to go.

We are all a part of the Wealth Lighthouse, with a genius and
a level we’re at. Your genius is your surfboard. Hold on to
that, and you don’t need to hold on to any wave:
Don’t sink or swim - surf.

Globalization is
one big bubble
Globularization is
many small bubbles.
It takes globularization to make
a bubble bath...

We live in a world where over
80% don’t speak English.
If you’re going to make a global
business, you need to be multi-
language & multi-currency.

1. You can work from anywhere
2. You can learn from everywhere
“Today, it’s easier to start a global
business than a local business.”
Why, What, Who, When, How
Impact
Wave 4: Globularization
Action
1. Make it a compelling journey
2. Automate & outsource
3. Multi-language, multi-currency
Your Company
Yourself
1. Have a global mindset
2. Stay in your season
3. Be world class

Matt Riemann went from
running a local business in
Brisbane to growing a
global foundation in
personalized medicine.

Lisa and Lachlan Laing went
from a local solar heating
company to a global online
eco-nappies company

Every level of the Wealth Lighthouse has specific
steps to take you to the next level

Every wave has specific
phases and every industry
has specific seasons. When
you follow your rhythm, you
find your flow.

We are moving from the
Power of Production
to the Power of Consumption
This is where
the power of one is replaced
by the power of many

Many, where we team up with
communities to create global
businesses:
Where you work from anywhere and

organisations like B1G1,
we can make a world of
difference.

By working with

and flow in
corporations, governments
and the
education system

3D printing
will transform our
factories, transport, retail &
medical industries more than
the Internet has transformed
our media & entertainment
industries.

The Internet of Things
will turn the Internet from
something we watch to something
invisible that connects us all. This
wave will transform the world we
live in beyond recognition, with a
web of intelligence far greater
than our own.

•3D printed products
•Robots everywhere
•Virtual realities
•Vertical farms
•100% solar power
•Stay young forever

The Singularity
is that point in time,
30 Years in the Future
when artificial intelligence
advances beyond human
intelligence and continues to
accelerate at a greater pace.

Augmented Humanity
is the process by which we
are becoming far more powerful
than our biological selves.
With great power comes
great responsibility.

1. News & Entertainment
2. Media & Communication

5. Education
6. Banking
7. Factories

limitations”

We are seeing the greatest
transfer of power in the history
of humanity, with wealth
moving from West to East and
leadership moving from
Male to Female.

Kenny and Bianca created a
elearning platform in Taiwan
based on US models

Phyllis and Gabriel created
a microfinance movement
in China based on their
work in England

Bea created a movement
for women leadership in
Eastern Europe which is
now going global.

2014 is the year we step
into space. This changes
our relationship with
our own planet.

With growing technology
comes the need for greater
consciousness.

“Humanity is taking its final exam. We have
come to an extraordinary moment when it
doesn’t have to be you or me anymore. There
is enough for all.”
~ Buckminster Fuller

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is
indistinguishable from magic.”
~ Arthur C Clarke

“One of the definitions of sanity is
the ability to tell real from unreal.
Soon we’ll need a new definition.”
~ Alvin Toffler

In the West, a dragon is something
to be fought and conquered.
In the East, a dragon is a symbol of
wealth and celebration.

To surf these 10 waves,
Harness your dragons
and fly
