SICU
SYNERGY NEWSLETTER, SEPTEMBER 2007
SICU is the acronyme of the name and slogan
'Synergy Integrated - Connects the Unconnected'. Ideas +
Exchange + Energy = Synergy (1 + 1 = 3).
Synergy is energy
moving in-sync. The experience of being in-sync is characterized
as feeling good, things are easy, everything is flowing, and
we're in harmony. Synergy is an elusive state of mind that
occupies much of our daily strivings; simply it's the pressing
desire to be happy.
CREATE SYNERGY!
 Once
an individual has gained self-perspective they are challenged to
turn their attention outward towards others to create a more
potent, and fuller existence.
Whether it be among partners within an one day thriving business
setting such as SICU, or couples attempting to renew their sense
of passion and wonder in their lives, or emerging teens
attempting to master a world of limitless opportunity, creating
synergy is the drive towards happiness, satisfaction,
achievement, and the “more” of what life holds for all of us
seekers.
Creating synergy is not a superficial
pursuit for short-term gain, but a deeper blending of the wisdom
from multiple perspectives that converges into a sense of
fullness and appreciation for all that life can offer.
This is exactly what SICU is striving
to; to create synergy, to better the interaction between all
parties, and to create interdepencies for the benefit of all of
us.
SICU

BY ROLAND MUELLER,
SICU SSG
HOFHEIM,
GERMANY
 Working
as a self-employed conceptionalist and brand profiler (at the
moment for clients like Leica Microsystems, Heidelberger
Druckmaschinen AG, GfK, etc.) one relatively quick realizes that
out there lots of loose endings are just waiting to get tied up.
So my personal interpretation of connecting the unconnected is a
very concrete one.
During the last months and years I was able to
establish several new interconnections between old and new
clients of mine, the alumni network of the Institute for
Journalism at the University of Mainz with its mentoring
activities, the ‘Liberaler Mittelstand Hessen’, an independent
liberal network of small and medium-sized businesses in the
Rhein Main region and SICU.
In combination with my own hand-selected network
of qualified communications freelancers step by step a kind of
“critical mass” of connections has developed. That is - by now
our local SICU-associated network is generating more energy than
I am investing in it. And even better: it generates business for
each and every partner who is integrated in its flexible and
everchanging structure. - Roland Mueller DUESENSCHRIEB
