Purpose
Obxerve.com is an online place for decision makers to get ideas, helping them become well rounded leaders with advices based on "observe - strategise - do" methodology.
Methodology
Ideas, written in the style of magazine commentaries, are based on the following approach.
- Observe:
- Master both in-depth subject matter expertise and clear understanding of related factors within the big picture. Observe continuously with open mind. Consult others to eliminate blind spots. Learn from the past and identify potential trends before they become forces to reckon.
- Strategise:
- Avoid being put in reactive mode; be proactive and "expect the unexpected." Aim high and yet stay grounded. Be open and promote shared understanding. Prevent the strategy from collecting dust; keep observing that it stays relevant.
- Do:
- Live the strategy; avoid empty words and lead by example. Delegate and empower, but do not loose touch. Balance asking for result with giving resources to produce the result. Strive for excellence and, at the same time, be patient. And while doing, be observant.

Form and Function
By design, the web site is kept relatively simple and plain to make browsing on a small screen less of a chore. (Small as in mobile phone or small internet gadget.) Following the same "observe - strategise - do" methodology, a small custom software was specifically built for Obxerve.com. (Small as in less than 300 lines.)
