Characteristics of Entrepreneurs and Innovators in Oil & Gas
People, Ideas & Objects is pleased to announce that we will publish our third research paper on Monday, February 10, 2025. This paper represents the third deliverable from our recently established research capability. As a reminder, Intellectual Property, our user community, and research comprise the three distinct competitive advantages we pursue at People, Ideas & Objects.
Currently, a significant portion of our effort is devoted to research in preparation for the development of Phase I of the Preliminary Specification. Similar to one of the papers scheduled for release on January 20, 2025, this third paper will focus on our user community. The previously mentioned January 20 paper addressing our user community is titled:
Catalysts for Cultural Change: The Leadership Role of People, Ideas & Objects User Community
Reconstructing Dynamic, Innovative, Accountable, and Profitable Oil & Gas Producers.
This publication delves into many details of the Preliminary Specification development, as well as the structure of our user community. It covers the individual phases of development and, most importantly, the compensation framework for our user community throughout the development process.
On January 20, 2025, we are releasing two papers. Both are relevant to everyone, but one targets our user community specifically, while the other is directed toward engineers and geologists. Together, they address the four critical elements needed to provide dynamic, innovative, accountable, and profitable oil and gas operations.
Our February 10, 2025 paper is entitled:
Characteristics of Entrepreneurs and Innovators: How Elon Musk and Others Excel in Constructing Today’s High-Performance Organizations
Strategies for Emulating Their Success Within Our User Community
At People, Ideas & Objects, we view our user community as the source of our solution’s quality. By making our user community a competitive advantage and our primary focus, we ensure the delivery of a high-quality ERP solution for the oil and gas industry. Over the next 25 years, the consequences of implementing a robust and well-designed ERP environment will be critical to the industry’s success. Starting with a thoughtful organizational design ensures that its benefits reach all corners of the sector. Approaching this task haphazardly would only jeopardize the outcome.
Periods of significant economic change—like the one we are entering—are exceedingly rare. We are transitioning into new economic models that promise exponentially greater performance trajectories, far beyond the scope of technology or bioengineering. This transformation will permeate every aspect of the economy, and its impact will be felt most intensely in North America.
Many believe that Artificial Intelligence represents the future of our economy, driving growth through its capacity to leverage intellectual efforts. While People, Ideas & Objects acknowledges that there may be some truth in this, we also recognize the daunting competitive challenge posed by oil and gas. Each barrel of oil equivalent delivers between 10,000 and 25,000 man-hours of mechanical leverage—an extraordinary value proposition that consumers rely on every day. Far from fading into the background, oil and gas still holds its greatest opportunities ahead.
