Zaphiropoulos, who has served as vice president for Xerox Corporation and as president and chief executive officer of Versatec Inc., believes that pleasure and business can go together as long as we follow what he calls elegance, game theory and cultivation. He said, "Elegance is that you use the least amount of material and get the maximum strength. Instead of being concerned as to how hard you work, you begin to worry about how smart you work." He felt that the first principles our college professors teach us help develop the ability to become elegant. However, "One has to outgrow the idea that I'm going to succeed by being very diligent. Instead I'm going to succeed by learning how to put elegance in my work. That is, do very little work and get the maximum results." Zaphiropoulos also described what he called "game theory." He said, "In sports you minimize the difference between competitors so the result is unpredictable." Business, has a different set of rules. "In a system of free enterprise, like the United States, there are others satisfying similiar needs competitors. You have to learn how to manage that kind of battle betwen oneself and the competition." Game theory is made more complicated by the opposing methods of entrepreneurs and bureaucrats. He said that bureaucrats love structure; they execute policy, and policies justify everything. Entrepreneurs thrive on the uncertainty of the outcome; they enjoy making decisions. He labeled himself as an entrepreneur saying, "Life is really a process of discovery. don't like predictable stuff." Another important step for making pleasure and business come together is cultivation. He said, "the greatest things in this world can never be the result of a command, s things out of people the same way you cultivate plants. "With a lemon tree you don't have to order it. The fruit will fall in your hand if you understand its cycles. People are very much like plants. They have environments under which they flourish." I I Y (FOR SUMMER OR FULL. TIME WORK.)
