Everything is worthwhile if the soul is not small.
One can change the small minds, but it is tad difficult to do it with the small heart whose soul is in small mind only.

The soul that feeds on books alone -

That lives alone by book and creed, -
A soul that has not learned to read.

Evolving our culture to operate and think differently is no small task. We are challenging our employees to be the best of both small and big companies - they should operate with the soul and spirit of a startup, while leveraging the scale, resources and capabilities of Campbell - with the goal of ultimately becoming the biggest small company.
But the soul has no culture. The soul has no nations. The soul has no colour or accent or way of life. The soul is forever. The soul is one. And when the heart has its moment of truth and sorrow, the soul can't be stilled.
