No último post falei um pouco sobre o legado que Jorge Paulo Lemann e a cultura do Banco Garantia deixaram para o meio empresarial brasileiro.

Segue abaixo, como complementação, a lista completa dos 18 princípios do Banco Garantia referida no post anteior.

Os alicerces de uma cultura campeã  – Fonte HSM Management

1. Um sonho grande e desafiador faz todo mundo remar na mesma direção.

2. O maior ativo da empresa é gente boa, trabalhando em equipe, crescendo na medida de seu talento e sendo recompensada por isso. A remuneração tem que estar alinhada com os interesses dos donos.

3. O lucro é o que atrai investidores, gente boa e oportunidades, mantendo a máquina rodando.

4. Foco é essencial. Não dá para ser ótimo em tudo. É preciso concentrar-se no essencial.

5. Tudo tem que ter um dono, com responsabilidade e autoridade. O debate é bom, mas, no final, alguém tem que decidir.

6. Bom senso é  tão bom quanto grandes conhecimentos. O simples é melhor que o complicado.

7. Transparência e fluxo de informações facilitam decisões e minimizam conflitos.

8. Escolher gente melhor do que si mesmo, treiná-las, desafiá-las e mantê-las é a principal tarefa dos administradores.

9. A liderança por exemplo pessoal é vital, tanto nas atitudes heróicas como nos pequenos gestos do dia-a- dia.

10. Sorte é sempre resultado de suor. Tem que trabalhar muito, mas com alegria.

11. As coisas acontecem na operação e no mercado. Tem que gastar sola de sapato.

12. Ser paranóico com custos e despesas, que são as únicas variáveis sob nosso controle, ajuda a garantir a sobrevivência no longo prazo.

13. A insatisfação permanente, a urgência e a complacência zero garantem a vantagem competitiva duradoura.

14. A inovação que agrega valor é útil, mas copiar o que já funciona bem é normalmente mais prático.

15. A discrição corporativa e pessoal só ajuda. Aparecer, só com objetivo concreto.

16. Aperfeiçoamento, melhora e educação são esforços constantes e devem integrar nossa rotina.

17. Nome, reputação e marcas são ativos valiosíssimos que se constroem em décadas e se perdem em dias.

18. Malandragens e espertezas destroem uma empresa por dentro. A ética compensa no longo prazo.

É interessante notar como os princípios refletem a maneira simples e orientada a resultados característica dessa cultura de gestão (ilustrados pelos princípios 3, 4, 5 e 14), assim como sua preocupação Ética 9 ( princípio18) e com a gestão de alguns intangíveis (princípio 17). Também fiquei impressionado com o fato que 9 dos princípios são relativos às pessoas.

O empresário Eike Batista, 52, dono do Grupo EBX, é o brasileiro mais rico do mundo, segundo o ranking dos maiores bilionários do planeta feita pela revista Forbes divulgada nesta quinta-feira.

Eike que já figurou na lista no ano passado, saltou da 142ª posição para a 52ª posição com uma fortuna avaliada em US$ 7,5 bilhões.

O investidor da cervejaria InBev, Jorge Paulo Lemann, 69, também saltou na lista, tendo passado da 172ª posição para a 92ª com uma fortuna estimada em US$ 5,3 bilhões. O empresário Antônio Ermínio de Moraes, 80, foi para a 224ª posição com uma fortuna de US$ 2,8 bilhões.

O empresário americano Bill Gates voltou a liderar a lista, com uma fortuna estimada em US$ 40 bilhões. Em comparação com o ano passado, a crise financeira repercutiu na lista que registrou uma diminuição de 30% no número de empresários. Ao todo, 793 bilionários integram a versão deste ano.

Em 2008, 1.125 empresários integravam o ranking. Ao todo, 373 saíram da lista – 355 pela diminuição na fortuna e 18 por motivo de morte. Essa foi a primeira vez, desde 2003, que o mundo perdeu dezenas de bilionários. Na edição deste ano, 38 novos empresários estréiam na lista.

The World’s Billionaires

It’s been a tough year for the richest people in the world. Last year there were 1,125 billionaires. This year there are just 793 people rich enough to make our list.

The world has become a wealth wasteland. Like the rest of us, the richest people in the world have endured a financial disaster over the past year. Today there are 793 people on our list of the World’s Billionaires, a 30% decline from a year ago.

Of the 1,125 billionaires who made last year’s ranking, 373 fell off the list–355 from declining fortunes and 18 who died. There are 38 newcomers, plus three moguls who returned to the list after regaining their 10-figure fortunes. It is the first time since 2003 that the world has had a net loss in the number of billionaires.

In Pictures: The 50 Richest People In The World

The world’s richest are also a lot poorer. Their collective net worth is $2.4 trillion, down $2 trillion from a year ago. Their average net worth fell 23% to $3 billion. The last time the average was that low was in 2003.

 

Bill Gates lost $18 billion but regained his title as the world’s richest man. Warren Buffett, last year’s No. 1, saw his fortune decline $25 billion as shares of Berkshire Hathaway (nyse: BRK.A - news - people ) fell nearly 50% in 12 months, but he still managed to slip just one spot to No. 2. Mexican telecom titan Carlos Slim Helú also lost $25 billion and dropped one spot to No. 3.

It was hard to avoid the carnage, whether you were in stocks, commodities, real estate or technology. Even people running profitable businesses were hammered by frozen credit markets, weak consumer spending or declining currencies.

The biggest loser in the world this year, by dollars, was last year’s biggest gainer. India’s Anil Ambani lost $32 billion–76% of his fortune–as shares of his Reliance Communications, Reliance Power and Reliance Capital all collapsed.

Ambani is one of 24 Indian billionaires, all but one of whom are poorer than a year ago. Another 29 Indians lost their billionaire status entirely as India’s stock market tumbled 44% in the past year and the Indian rupee depreciated 18% against the dollar. It is no longer the top spot in Asia for billionaires, ceding that title to China, which has 28.

Comment On This Story

Russia became the epicenter of the world’s commodities bust, dropping 55 billionaires–two-thirds of its 2008 crop. Among them: Dmitry Pumpyansky, an industrialist from the resource-rich Ural mountain region, who lost $5 billion as shares of his pipe producer, TMK, sank 84%. Also gone is Vasily Anisimov, father of Moscow’s Paris Hilton, Anna Anisimova, who lost $3.2 billion as the value of his Metalloinvest Holding, one of Russia’s largest ore mining and processing firms, fell along with his real estate holdings.

Twelve months ago Moscow overtook New York as the billionaire capital of the world, with 74 tycoons to New York’s 71. Today there are 27 in Moscow and 55 in New York.

After slipping in recent years, the U.S. is regaining its dominance as a repository of wealth. Americans account for 44% of the money and 45% of the list’s slots, up seven and three percentage points from last year, respectively. Still, it has 110 fewer billionaires than a year ago.

Those with ties to Wall Street were particularly hard hit. Former head of AIG (nyse: AIG - news -people ) Maurice (Hank) Greenberg saw his $1.9 billion fortune nearly wiped out after the insurance behemoth had to be bailed out by the U.S. government. Today Greenberg is worth less than $100 million. Former Citigroup (nyse: C - news- people ) Chairman Sandy Weill also falls from the ranks.

 

Last year there were 39 American billionaire hedge fund managers; this year there are 28. Twelve American private equity tycoons dropped out of the billionaire ranks.

Blackstone Group’s (nyse: BX - news - people ) Stephen Schwarzman, who lost $4 billion, and Kohlberg Kravis & Roberts’ Henry Kravis, who lost $2.5 billion, retain their billionaire status despite their weaker fortunes.

Worldwide, 80 of the 355 drop-offs from last year’s list had fortunes derived from finance or investments.

While 656 billionaires lost money in the past year, 44 added to their fortunes. Those who made money did so by catering to budget-conscious consumers (discount retailer Uniqlo’s Tadashi Yanai), predicting the crash (investor John Paulson) or cashing out in the nick of time (Cirque du Soleil’s Guy Laliberte).

So is there anywhere one can still make a fortune these days? The 38 newcomers offer a few clues. Among the more notable new billionaires are Mexican Joaquín Guzmán Loera, one of the biggest suppliers of cocaine to the U.S.; Wang Chuanfu of China, whose BYD Co. began selling electric cars in December, and American John Paul Dejoria, who got the world clean with his Paul Mitchell shampoos and sloppy with his Patrón Tequila.

Last year the world had 1,125 billionaires. Today there are 793. How $1.4 trillion vanished.

A aquisição da norte-americana Anheuser-Busch (a empresa que produz, entre outras importantes marcas, a cerveja Budweiser) pela InBev é mais um marco dos novos tempos que se aproximam. A empresa, resultado da fusão entre a brasileira AmBev e a belga Interbrew, apesar de ter sua sede em Leuven, na Bélgica, possui o corpo diretivo composto basicamente por empresários brasileiros como Carlos Brito e Jorge Paulo Lemann. A aquisição é mais um dos fatos que enfatiza a força e importância econômica desenvolvida pelos países emergentes na atual conjuntura global.

Quem diria, há uma década atrás, que um dos maiores símbolos do american way of life seria absorvido por uma gigante belga-brasileira do setor cervejeiro, em mais um meganegócio desse capitalismo selvagem tanto praticado pelos próprios americanos? O que parecia um absurdo há pouco tempo atrás, se torna hoje uma realidade, causando uma grande insatisfação do povo americano, que passou, por uma dessas impagáveis ironias do destino, a denunciar o imperialismo belgo-brasileiro. Foram feitas campanhas de massa contra a venda da A-B (Anheuser-Busch), sites e abaixo assinados virtuais foram lançados na Internet tentando proteger o símbolo norte-americano do imperialismo estrangeiro, mas não deu. Como sempre deveria ocorrer, a racionalidade econômica falou mais alto e a oferta astronômica de 52 bilhões de dólares foi devidamente aceita. A Budweiser agora deve entrar no mercado brasileiro, e a InBev no mercado norte-americano. Bom negócio para ambos os lados.

Além dessa transação, presenciamos, ainda nesse ano, a compra das marcas Jaguar e Land Rover pela fabricante indiana Tata Motors. Juntos, esses negócios evidenciam a importância da mudança de foco, no contexto econômico global, para os países em desenvolvimento. Em meio à crise pulverizada por toda economia global, as grandes taxas de crescimentos continuam sendo dos países integrantes do chamado BRIC (Brasil, Rússia, Índia e China), e são elas que funcionam como o principal motor da economia atual, puxando o crescimento de outros países. É uma importância que chama a atenção e muda certos paradigmas. Há certo tempo, a grande maioria dos negócios do comércio exterior acontecia entre paises desenvolvidos, hoje a situação tende para o lado oposto, onde os emergentes se apresentam ora protagonistas de transações com valores astronômicos e ora como as grandes oportunidades de rentabilidade de investimento atraindo capitais do mundo todo. A bolsa brasileira, por exemplo, era, antes da semana passada, a única bolsa com rendimento positivo em 2008 entre as bolsas significativas de todo o mundo.

O fato é que temos hoje a maior cervejaria do mundo controlada por um CEO brasileiro, o que é digno de comemoração. Entramos também com tudo na terra do Tio Sam. Para se ter uma idéia, a Budweiser é nada menos que a maior anunciante dos Estados Unidos. Em 2007, foram gastos pela empresa US$ 475 milhões em publicidade, gerando verdadeiras obras-primas publicitárias, como o comercial abaixo.
