Business Feng Shui: The Invisible Force Behind Corporate Success
The operation of large enterprises is as complex as waging a battle. In the ever-changing business world, how does one strategize, seize opportunities, deploy talent effectively, and achieve outstanding performance?
Why do some companies thrive with smooth operations and successful leadership, while others face constant turmoil, frequent incidents, and revolving-door leadership? Why do some enterprises become century-old institutions while others fade quickly?
Beyond human effort, Feng Shui forces play a significant role in these differences. Corporate Feng Shui permeates every aspect of business—from overall layout, entrance orientation, leadership seating, and wealth position placement to packaging methods, marketing strategies, and launch date selection. By fully utilizing Feng Shui forces, businesses can ensure long-term prosperity and smooth operations for leadership.
East-West Perspective
Feng Shui is China’s ancient environmental science emphasizing harmony between humans and their surroundings. In the West, similar concepts are known as “environmental psychology” or “spatial energy.”
In modern business environments, Feng Shui principles combine with Western management science to create balanced, harmonious, and efficient workspaces that help companies excel in competition.
Business Leaders on Feng Shui
“When I come to China, I have to rent Chinese houses. I will ask a Feng Shui master to check them before I dare to use them. Not only in China, but when I open Microsoft branches anywhere in the world, I will ask a Feng Shui master to check the location before I choose an office. I won’t use a building without a Feng Shui master’s approval.”
“I have believed in Feng Shui all my life. When building my Hong Kong headquarters, the Cheung Kong Center, I followed my Feng Shui master’s advice: ‘The Cheung Kong Center should be taller than the neighboring HSBC Building (179m) but shorter than the Bank of China Tower (367m) on the other side.'”
“Others talk to me about science, but I believe in Feng Shui, and I’m superstitious about it. Alibaba’s establishment of seven subsidiaries was based on Feng Shui considerations.”
“There’s a difference between believing and not believing in Feng Shui. People who have always been ‘lucky’ generally don’t believe, while those who have experienced setbacks and feel unable to control their destiny do believe. I definitely belong to those who strongly believe in Feng Shui now.”
