I stumbled across this video today and loved the insight it gave me in to one of the World’s greatest and most life changing companies.

I would highly recommend you spend 10 minutes of your day watching this video, it does an incredible job of communicating the ethos and history of IBM.

IBM are a household name, most of us know them for computer chips, software and hardware. Few of us will be aware of the amazing history of the company and the profound effect it has had on the development of technology across the world.

Anyway, a something or nothing blog but I thought this was well worth a share. If you are looking for video/animation works then do just get in touch. We have had two commissions recently, both look fantastic and communicate effortlessly with the viewer.

Oh, I almost forget, the title quote, along with the other gems below are all from Thomas J Watson… I think he’s just earned a seat at my ‘dream’ dinner party:

• “All of The Problems of The World Could be Settled Easily if Men Were Only Willing to THINK”
• “Good design is good business.”
• “A manager is an assistant to his men.”
• “Wisdom is the power to put our time and our knowledge to the proper use.”
• “The way to succeed is to double your error rate.”
• “Really big people are, above everything else, courteous, considerate and generous – not just to some people in some circumstances – but to everyone all the time.”
