Zappos adalah perusahaan online yg inspiring. Amazon membelinya beberapa waktu lalu dengan angka yang fantastis, bukan karena size bisnisnya, bukan karena kecanggihan teknologinya, melainkan karena keunggulan dari budaya perusahaannya.
Kutipan di bawah ini saya dapatkan dari sebuah blog dan nampaknya sudah menjadi domain public. Makanya saya sempatkan mengkopinya di sini agar tidak tercecer dan bisa dinikmati oleh kita semua yang bisnisnya masih struggle untuk mencapai nilai-nilai excellence.
Kehebatan Zappos ini bukanlah tanpa kelemahan. Budaya service yang diusungnya sangatlah mahal dan butuh komitmen yang kuat dari CEO dan seluruh jajarannya. Tamparan krisis juga sempat membuatnya goyang dan melepaskan cukup banyak SDMnya, suatu hal yang selama ini “haram” di Zappos.
THE ZAPPOS MISSION: To live and deliver WOW.
As we grow as a company, it has become more and more important to explicitly define the Zappos core values from which we develop our culture, our brand, and our business strategies. With so many new employees joining the company as we grow, we want to make sure that everyone is on the same page and acting consistently with what we want Zappos to be all about.
Over time, we will be restructuring performance evaluations so that a big part of every employee’s performance evaluation is based on how well he/she represents and makes decisions based on the Zappos core values.
While there are many subcomponents to each value, we’ve distilled the most important themes into the following 10 core values.
1) Deliver WOW Through Service
2) Embrace and Drive Change
3) Create Fun and A Little Weirdness
4) Be Adventurous, Creative, and Open-Minded
5) Pursue Growth and Learning
6) Build Open and Honest Relationships With Communication
7) Build a Positive Team and Family Spirit
Do More With Less
9) Be Passionate and Determined
10) Be Humble
Ideally, we want all 10 core values to be reflected in everything we do, including how we interact with each other, how we interact with our customers, and how we interact with our vendors and business partners.
There is a lot of work that lies ahead, and it will be quite some time before our 10 core values are truly reflected in how we think, how we act, and how we communicate.
As we grow, our processes and strategies may change, but we want our values to always remain the same. Our core values should always be the framework from which we make all of our decisions. Because this is our first time publishing our core values, there may be some additions or changes made over the next year, but our goal is to ultimately decide on a final list of core values to serve as the framework for how we run and grow the company.
I encourage everyone to re-examine everything that is being done at the company and ask yourself what changes can be made to better reflect our core values. For example, our employee handbook could be improved so it sounds more like “Zappos” and less like an employee handbook that you might find at another company. The forms that we use internally, our job application forms, some of our email templates, parts of our web site, and much, much more can all be improved to feel more like Zappos and better reflect our core values.
So the challenge to everyone is this: make at least one improvement every week that makes Zappos better reflect our core values.
The improvements don’t have to be dramatic – it can be as simple as adding in an extra sentence or two to a form to make it more fun, for example. But if every employee made just one small improvement every week to better reflect our core values, then by the end of this year we will have over 50,000 small changes that collectively will be a very dramatic improvement compared to where we are today.
A brief description of each of the 10 core values is below.
DELIVER WOW THROUGH SERVICE
At Zappos, anything worth doing is worth doing with WOW.
WOW is such a short, simple word, but it really encompasses a lot of things. To WOW, you must differentiate yourself, which means do something a little unconventional and innovative. You must do something that’s above and beyond what’s expected. And whatever you do must have an emotional impact on the receiver. We are not an average company, our service is not average, and we don’t want our people to be average. We expect every employee to deliver WOW.
Whether internally with co-workers or externally with our customers and partners, delivering WOW results in word of mouth. Our philosophy at Zappos is to WOW with service and experience, not with anything that relates directly to monetary compensation (for example, we don’t offer blanket discounts or promotions to customers).
We seek to WOW our customers, our co-workers, our vendors, our partners, and in the long run, our investors.
Ask yourself: What are things you can improve upon in your work or attitude to WOW more people? Have you WOWed at least one person today?
EMBRACE AND DRIVE CHANGE
Part of being in a growing company is that change is constant. For some people, especially those that come from bigger companies, the constant change can be somewhat unsettling at first. If you are not prepared to deal with constant change, then you probably are not a good fit for the company.
We must all learn not only to not fear change, but to embrace it enthusiastically, and perhaps even more importantly, to encourage and drive it. We must always plan for and be prepared for constant change.
Although change can and will come from all directions, it’s important that most of the changes in the company are driven from the bottom up – from the people that are on the front lines that are closest to the customers and/or issues.
Never accept or be too comfortable with the status quo, because historically, the companies that get into trouble are the ones that aren’t able to respond quickly enough and adapt to change.
We are ever evolving. If we want to continue to stay ahead of our competition, we must continually change and keep them guessing. They can copy our images, our shipping, and the overall look of our web site, but they cannot copy our people, our culture, or our service. And they will not be able to evolve as fast as we can as long as embracing constant change is a part of our culture.
Ask yourself: How do you plan and prepare for change? Do you view new challenges optimistically? Do you encourage and drive change?
How do you encourage more change to be driven from the bottom up?
Are you empowering your direct reports to drive change?
CREATE FUN AND A LITTLE WEIRDNESS
One of the things that makes Zappos different from a lot of other companies is that we value being fun and being a little weird. We don’t want to become one of those big companies that feels corporate and boring. We want to be able to laugh at ourselves. We look for both fun and humor in our daily work.
This means that many things we do might be a little unconventional – or else it wouldn’t be a little weird. We’re not looking for crazy or extreme weirdness though. We want just a touch of weirdness to make life more interesting and fun for everyone. We want the company to have a unique and memorable personality.
Our company culture is what makes us successful, and in our culture we celebrate and embrace our diversity and each person’s individuality. We want people to express their personality in their work. To outsiders, that might come across as inconsistent or weird. But the consistency is in our belief that we function best when we can be ourselves. We want the weirdness in each of us to be expressed in our interactions with each other and in our work.
One of the side effects of encouraging weirdness is that it encourages people to think outside the box and be more innovative. When you combine a little weirdness with making sure everyone is also having fun at work, it ends up being a win-win for everyone: Employees are more engaged in the work that they do, and the company as a whole becomes more innovative.
Ask yourself: What can we do to be a little weird and differentiate ourselves from everyone else? What can we do that’s both fun and a little weird? How much fun do you have in your job, and what can you do to make it more fun? What do you do to make your co-workers’ jobs fun as well?
BE ADVENTUROUS, CREATIVE, AND OPEN-MINDED
At Zappos, we think it’s important for people and the company as a whole to be bold and daring (but not reckless). We want everyone to not be afraid to take risks and to not be afraid to make mistakes, because if people aren’t making mistakes then that means they’re not taking enough risks. Over time, we want everyone to develop his/her gut about business decisions. We want people to develop and improve their decision-making skills. We encourage people to make mistakes as long as they learn from them.
We never want to become complacent and accept the status quo just because that’s the way things have always been done. We should always be seeking adventure and having fun exploring new possibilities. By having the freedom to be creative in our solutions, we end up making our own luck. We approach situations and challenges with an open mind.
Sometimes our sense of adventure and creativity causes us to be unconventional in our solutions (because we have the freedom to think outside the box), but that’s what allows us to rise above and stay ahead of the competition.
Ask yourself: Are you taking enough risks? Are you afraid of making mistakes? Do you push yourself outside of your comfort zone? Is there a sense of adventure and creativity in the work that you do? What are some creative things that you can contribute to Zappos? Do you approach situations and challenges with an open mind?
PURSUE GROWTH AND LEARNING
At Zappos, we think it’s important for employees to grow both personally and professionally. It’s important to constantly challenge and stretch yourself, and not be stuck in a job where you don’t feel like you are growing or learning.
We believe that inside every employee is more potential than even the employee himself/herself realizes. Our goal is to help employees unlock that potential. But it has to be a joint effort: You have to want to challenge and stretch yourself in order for it to happen.
If you’ve been at Zappos for more than a few months, one thing is clear: Zappos is growing. We grow because we take on new challenges, and we face even more new challenges because we’re growing. It’s an endless cycle, and it’s a good thing: it’s the only way for a company to survive. But it can also at times feel risky, stressful, and confusing.
Sometimes it may seem that new problems crop up as fast as we solve the old ones (sometimes faster!), but that just means that we’re moving – that we’re getting better and stronger. Anyone who wants to compete with us has to learn the same things, so problems are just mile markers. Each one we pass means we’ve gotten better.
Yet no matter how much better we get, we’ll always have hard work to do, we’ll never be done, and we’ll never “get it right.”
That may seem negative, but it’s not: we’ll do our best to “get it right,” and then do it again when we find out that things have changed. That is the cycle of growth, and like it or not, that cycle won’t stop.
It’s hard… but if we weren’t doing something hard, then we’d have no business. The only reason we aren’t swamped by our competition is because what we do is hard, and we do it better than anyone else. If it ever gets too easy, start looking for a tidal wave of competition to wash us away.
It may seem sometimes like we don’t know what we’re doing. And it’s true: we don’t. That’s a bit scary, but you can take comfort in knowing that nobody else knows how to do what we’re doing either. If they did, they’d be the web’s most popular shoe store. Sure, people have done parts of what we do before, but what we’ve learned over the years at Zappos is that the devil is in the details. And that’s where we’re breaking new ground.
So there are no experts in what we’re doing. Except for us: we are becoming experts as we do this. And for anyone we bring on board, the best expertise they can bring is expertise at learning and adapting and figuring new things out – helping the company grow, and in the process they will also be growing themselves.
Ask yourself: How do you grow personally? How do you grow professionally? Are you a better person today than you were yesterday? How do you get your co-workers and direct reports to grow personally? How do you get your co-workers and direct reports to grow professionally? How do you challenge and stretch yourself? Are you learning something everyday? What is your vision for where you want to go? How do you get the company as a whole to grow? Are you doing everything you can to promote company growth, and at the same time are you helping others understand the growth? Do you understand the company vision?
BUILD OPEN AND HONEST RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNICATION
Fundamentally, we believe that openness and honesty make for the best relationships because that leads to trust and faith. We value strong relationships in all areas: with managers, direct reports, customers (internal and external), vendors, business partners, team members, and co-workers.
Strong, positive relationships that are open and honest are a big part of what differentiates Zappos from most other companies. Strong relationships allow us to accomplish much more than we would be able to otherwise.
A key ingredient in strong relationships is to develop emotional connections. It’s important to always act with integrity in your relationships, to be compassionate, friendly, loyal, and to make sure that you do the right thing and treat your relationships well. The hardest thing to do is to build trust, but if the trust exists, you can accomplish so much more.
In any relationship, it’s important to be a good listener as well as a good communicator. Open, honest communication is the best foundation for any relationship, but remember that at the end of the day it’s not what you say or what you do, but how you make people feel that matters the most. In order for someone to feel good about a relationship, he/she must know that the other person truly cares about them, both personally and professionally.
At Zappos, we embrace diversity in thoughts, opinions, and backgrounds. The more widespread and diverse your relationships are, the bigger the positive impact you can make on the company, and the more valuable you will be to the company. It is critical for relationship-building to have effective, open, and honest communication.
As the company grows, communication becomes more and more important, because everyone needs to understand how his/her team connects to the big picture of what we’re trying to accomplish.
Communication is always one of the weakest spots in any organization, no matter how good the communication is. We want everyone to always try to go the extra mile in encouraging thorough, complete, and effective communication.
Ask yourself: How much do people enjoy working with you? How can you improve those relationships? What new relationships can you build throughout the company beyond just the co-workers that you work with on a daily basis? How do you WOW the people that you have relationships with? How can you make your relationships more open and honest? How can you do a better job of communicating with everyone?
BUILD A POSITIVE TEAM AND FAMILY SPIRIT
At Zappos, we place a lot of emphasis on our culture because we are both a team and a family. We want to create an environment that is friendly, warm, and exciting. We encourage diversity in ideas, opinions, and points of view.
The best leaders are those that lead by example and are both team followers as well as team leaders. We believe that in general, the best ideas and decisions are made from the bottom up, meaning by those on the front lines that are closest to the issues and/or the customers. The role of a manager is to remove obstacles and enable his/her direct reports to succeed. This means the best leaders are servant-leaders. They serve those they lead.
The best team members take initiative when they notice issues so that the team and the company can succeed. The best team members take ownership of issues and collaborate with other team members whenever challenges arise.
The best team members have a positive influence on one another and everyone they encounter. They strive to eliminate any kind of cynicism and negative interactions. Instead, the best team members are those that strive to create harmony with each other and whoever else they interact with.
We believe that the best teams are those that not only work with each other, but also interact with each other outside the office environment. Many of the company’s best ideas have been the direct result of informal interactions outside of the office. For example, the idea for our culture book came about from a casual discussion outside the office.
We are more than just a team though – we are a family. We watch out for each other, care for each other, and go above and beyond for each other because we believe in each other and we trust each other. We work together but we also play together. Our bonds go far beyond the typical “co-worker” relationships found at most other companies.
Ask yourself: How do you encourage more teamwork? How do you encourage more people to take initiative? How do you encourage more people to take ownership? What can you do with your team members so that you feel both like a family and a team? How can you build stronger relationships with your team members both inside and outside the office? Do you instill a sense of team and family not just within your department, but across the entire company? Do you exemplify a positive team spirit?
DO MORE WITH LESS
Zappos has always been about being able to do more with less. While we may be casual in our interactions with each other, we are focused and serious about the operations of our business. We believe in hard work and putting in the extra effort to get things done.
We believe in operational excellence, and realize that there is always room for improvement in everything we do. This means that our work is never done. In order to stay ahead of the competition (or would-be competition), we need to continuously innovate as well as make incremental improvements to our operations, always striving to make ourselves more efficient, always trying to figure out how to do something better. We use mistakes as learning opportunities.
We must never lose our sense of urgency in making improvements. We must never settle for “good enough”, because good is the enemy of great, and our goal is to not only become a great company, but to become the greatest service company in the world. We set and exceed our own high standards, constantly raising the bar for competitors and for ourselves.
Ask yourself: How can you do what you’re doing more efficiently? How can your department become more efficient? How can the company as a whole become more efficient? How can you personally help the company become more efficient?
BE PASSIONATE AND DETERMINED
Passion is the fuel that drives ourselves and our company forward. We value passion, determination, perserverance, and the sense of urgency.
We are inspired because we believe in what we are doing and where we are going. We don’t take “no” or “that’ll never work” for an answer, because if we had, Zappos would never have started in the first place.
Passion and determination are contagious. We believe in having a positive and optimistic (but realistic) attitude about everything we do, because we realize that this inspires others to have the same attitude.
There is excitement in knowing that everyone you work with has a tremendous impact on a larger dream and vision, and you can see that impact day in and day out.
Ask yourself: Are you passionate about the company? Are you passionate about your work? Do you love what you do and who you work with? Are you happy here? Are you inspired? Do you believe in what we are doing and where we are going? Is this the place for you?
BE HUMBLE
While we have grown quickly in the past, we recognize that there are always challenges ahead to tackle. We believe that no matter what happens, we should always be respectful of everyone.
While we celebreate our individual and team successes, we are not arrogant nor do we treat others differently from how we would want to be treated. Instead, we carry ourselves with a quiet confidence, because we believe that in the long run our character will speak for itself.
Ask yourself: Are you humble when talking about your accomplishments? Are you humble when talking about the company’s accomplishments? Do you treat both large and small vendors with the same amount of respect that they treat you?

Saya lagi getol membacai informasi mengenai investasi emas. Berawal dari status Robert Kiyosaki di Twitter yang mengatakan bahwa akan terjadi “transfer of wealth” terbesar sepanjang sejarah dalam 3-5 tahun lagi. Saya penasaran, nggak ngerti apa maksudnya dan kemudian bertanya ke Pak Tung Desem Waringin.
Maksudnya adalah investasi di emas dan perak, jawab Pak Tung via chatting melalui Blackberry-nya. “Pak Roni kalau punya uang lebih, sisihkan 20%-nya untuk beli emas. Dalam seminggu ini saja saya sudah gain senilai mobil Fortuner dari emas”, balasnya.
Wow…
Maka saya pun makin bersemangat take action mencari informasi dari berbagai sumber mengenai emas ini. Salah satu sumber informasi yang disarankan Pak Tung adalah Gerai Dinar dan Antam.
Banyak hal saya pelajari dari Gerai Dinar, sampai saya mengklik satu link tempat pembelian dinar. Ternyata, website itu adalah milik salah satu anggota TDA juga. Hebat. TDA sudah merambah ke mana-mana.
Salah satu nama yang saya kenal adalah Dudi Iskandar. Saya bertemu dengan Mas Dudi pertama kali saat rombongan TDA menghadiri undangan Matrade di Malaysia tahun 2008 lalu.
Kemarin, Mas Dudi mengirimkan ceritanya bagaimana ia memulai bisnis ini dan apa yang sudah dicapainya selama 4 bulan melakukan penjualan Dinar emas ini.
Silakan dibaca di bawah ini:

Blogpreneur sekarang sedang banyak menjadi pembicaraan orang, pada pesta blogger 2009 pun ada sesi khusus yang membicarakan ini. Saat ini memang transaksi online sudah menjadi kebiasaan dari masyarakat kita. Namun masih banyak juga yang merasa khawatir dengan system jualan online ini, apalagi kita tidak pernah berinteraksi langsung.
Seiring dengan penguna internet yang semakin banyak di negeri ini, maka peluang untuk berjualan online sangat terbuka lebar. Terlebih membuat sebuah web sekarang cukup mudah dengan banyaknya CMS (Content Management System)
Banyak kelebihannya untuk memulai bisnis di intenet ini, misal dari tempat masih bisa dijalankan dari rumah, tidak perlu stok barang terlalu banyak. Dan masih banyak kelebihannya lagi yang lain.
Saya juga memulai bisnis online ini baru di Bulan Juli 2009, setelah beberapa bulan menjadi kolektor dinar emas. Dan berkesimpulan ini merupakan sebuah peluang usaha yang cukup bagus. Maka saya memberanikan diri untuk memulai jualan dengan membeli sebuah domain http://dinaremas.net. Karena saya mendapatkan ijin untuk menjual Dinar Emas ini sebagai Sub Agen dari http://usahadinar.com . Walaupun tidak diwajibkan untuk mempunyai webstore, namun saya berfikir bahwa dengan mempunyai webstore sendiri, pemasaran akan lebih luas lagi tidak hanya menunggu limpahan dari Agen saja.
Di awal usaha saya cukup ragu bisa menjual dinar sebanyak 20 keping, karena harga yang cukup lumayan. Sungguh janji Allah itu benar adanya, Rejeki akan datang dari tempata yang tidak disangka-sangka. Take Action Miracle Happen demikian yang sering saya dengar di forum-forum TDA. Tadinya sebagai karyawan belum begitu terbayang kalimat-kalimat itu. Namun setelah menjalani 4 bulan ini memang sungguh luar biasa ketika kita bergerak.
Sekarang memasuki bulan ke-empat penjualan online dinar emas ini, sungguh fantastic, banyak sekali hikmah yang dapat di ambil dari proses ini semua. Ditawari pinjaman oleh sebuah bank swasta, sempat dihubungi oleh media massa.

Akhirnya kemarin saya ditakdirkan Allah bertemu langsung dengan Ustadz yang tengah naik daun dan diperbincangkan di mana-mana ini. Saya termasuk yang tertinggal mengikuti perkembangan ini. Sejak Aa Gym “turun gunung” saya memang agak kurang mengikuti perkembangan terkini dakwah yang dilakukan oleh dai-dai selain beliau.
Ustadz Yusuf Mansur adalah sosok yang sangat bersahaja, cepat sekali akrab dengan tamunya. Saya merasa tidak sedang berbicara dengan seorang ustadz dengan jutaan pengikut. Saya merasa bertemu dengan kawan baru saja. Yang mengejutkan, selesai memimpin shalat Maghrib berjamaah, beliau meminta jamaahnya untuk berdoa membacakan Al Fatihah untuk kami, tamu dari Komunitas Tangan Di Atas. Subhanallah.
Kedatangan saya bersama Pak Try Atmojo dan Pak Wahyu Hidayat adalah atas undangan staf ustadz penggagas gerakan sedekah nasional ini. Rupanya beliau tertarik dengan Komunitas TDA dan ingin berkolaborasi membuat sesuatu yang bermanfaat bagi orang banyak. Alhamdulillah, kami merasa mendapat kehormatan atas ajakan ini. Beberapa rencana tindak lanjut telah kami sepakati dalam pertemuan ini.
Dalam kesempatan ini kami juga menjadi saksi “moment of truth” yang sangat menggetarkan. Sepasang suami istri menyerahkan sebuah amplop berisi uang Rp. 8 juta kepada Ustadz Yusuf. Yang membuat bergetar bukanlah nilai uang itu. Ternyata uang Rp. 8 juta itu adalah satu-satunya milik mereka yang semula diniatkan untuk modal berjualan. Mereka mengikhlaskannya untuk disedekahkan kepada Pesantren Darul Quran milik ustadz. Subhanallah. Ini adalah momen “quantum giving”, ujar ustadz.
Selain itu saya juga menyaksikan seorang anak muda, developer town house dari Yogyakarta, menyerahkan satu unit rumah senilai Rp. 500 jutaan untuk digunakan sebagai pesantren Darul Quran.
Rupanya tamu-tamu seperti inilah yang kerap berkunjung ke markas beliau di daerah Cipondoh Tangerang ini. Mereka-mereka yang tersentuh dan tergerak hatinya oleh ajakan ustadz untuk menyerahkan harta terbaiknya untuk digunakan di jalan Allah.
Gaya bicara ustadz yang menyentuh sekaligus provokatif telah menyentuh hati jutaan pengikutnya. Berbondong-bondong mereka mengikuti ceramah ustadz muda yang baru berusia 32 tahun ini. Saya kagum dengan sosok yang baru saya kenal ini. Sosok anak muda, enerjik, memiliki ilmu yang dalam, banyak ide progresif dan juga seorang pemimpi dan pemimpin yang visioner.
“Bagaimana kalau kita beli TPI yang sekarang sedang pailit itu?”, pertanyaan itu diajukannya dengan penuh keyakinan. “Bayangkan kalau seandainya 1 juta orang saja menyetor masing-masing Rp. 10 juta saja, pasti kita bisa membeli TPI”. Betul juga.
“Ada lagi sebuah bank syariah beraset Rp. 15 trilyun dan mau ditawarkan dengan harga Rp. 1 trilyun, kenapa kita nggak ambil aja secara berjamaah?”.
Saya jadi teringat dengan film Finding Nemo, yang mengisahkan seekor ikan badut kecil yang memberi komando kepada kumpulan ikan sarden yang tengah terjerat jaring kapal penangkap ikan. Semua ikan panik dan berusaha bergerak ke segala arah. Nemo memerintahkan agar mereka semua bergerak ke bawah, ke satu arah. Awalnya ikan-ikan sarden itu bingung dengan perintah itu, tapi sedikit demi sedikit mereka mengikutinya. Akhirnya seluruh ikan sarden mengikuti perintah itu dan menjadi kekuatan yang dahsyat. Kayu besar mengait jaring kapal pun putus dan ikan pun terbebas dari jeratan.
Peran seperti Nemo inilah yang sedang dilakukan oleh Ustadz Yusuf Mansur ini. “Jangankan 1 triliun, puluhan triliun pun bisa diperoleh dengan komando dari Ustadz”, ujar saya. Ustadz pun tergelak dan suka dengan analogi saya ini. Makanya Ustadz saya beri gelar Ustadz Nemo. Hehe…
Sungguh, pengalaman berharga yang kami dapatkan dari kesempatan beberapa jam bersama beliau. Energi Allah itu maha besar. Berada di dekat orang-orang yang dekat dengan Allah, kita akan merasakan dahsyatnya energi itu. Saya yang tadinya berangkat dalam keadaan setengah mengantuk, ketika pulang kok jadi bersemangat dan lupa dengan kantuk itu.
Salam FUUUNtastic! SuksesMulia!
