Five Star Framework for Business by Ideazfirst

Businesses Re-classified using 5-Star Framework by Ideazfirst


Is there an ideal organization structure which fits all types of organizations in the world whether they are manufacturing, services oriented or government organizations? Yes, there is one structure that is divinely designed by Nature and its five elements - its flawless and perfect.


Business re-classification based on Nature, five elements and gender

Nature and the elements are infinitely organized. There are five elements i.e. Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth which interchange forms dynamically and sequentially as a part of a natural rythm. And there are two aspects in most living beings - Male and female or better still - Adam & Eve
Adam represent the mass production or manufacturing operations, and with lesser orientation towards personalized and customized services. We derive this logic from the fact that one hundred million identical sperm cells are released in one ejaculation by a healthy man. 
Eve represent service-based operations, with higher customized and personalized offerings also leading to more emotional connect and sensitivity. Again, this logic is derived from the reproduction system where the baby is incubated based on only one sperm fertilized with one egg. 

We have code named this as Ideazfirst Five Star Framework as it's based on five elements and two genders, we can classify all the business and government functions into a total of 10-point classification. This framework is derived from the ancient Hindu Vedic texts i.e. Pancha bhoota which is the basis of cosmic creation

How does it help or why should anyone consider this as a management thought - The Five Star framework offers unique and systematic solutions to business problems, for example it helps in designing your business blueprint, process workflows, identifying key clients, vendors, and partners for your business, also helps in planning your marketing activities and fuel it for growth.

All humans worldwide look the same with the organs and body parts aligned in the same fashion, it's just that some organs and skillsets are stronger than others in specific tribes and species. Hence, we can safely derive that all businesses can have the same organizational structure and process workflows irrespective of the type of industry they operate in. The only difference would be in the capacity and skill of certain departments. 

For example all the ether-based businesses will have their vendors as earth-based business and clients as air-based business and so on and so forth.
We are updating the best practices in organizational structure design for all industries and 5 star framework for Governments and is available for all users.
