Plain Talk About Recordable DVD
A Quick History While the capacity of hard disks increased a hundred fold, CD-ROM has remained at 650/700MB capacity for more than 10 years. When the removable storage industry began to address the growing requirements of business, industry and entertainment in 1996, their objectives were to establish a family of single best DVD formats and promote broad acceptance of DVD products across entertainment, consumer electronics and IT industries.

Why Change Is So Hard
A single human brain is estimated to have the switching capacity of the entire U.S. telephone network.It can hold up to 100 trillion bits of information, dwarfing the capacity of any computer ever developed yet. But the brain can act as a prison unless we learn how to control it. The brain can, and often does, lick us into automatic perceptions and behaviors that are inaccurate, ineffective, or downright destructive. How the human brain works is worth noting if we want to change.

2.1 Growth performance I: Economic Report on Africa 2007
This section examines recent economic performance at the continental and subregional levels. It discusses disparities in growth performance and the factors behind the observed disparities across countries and subregions. The analysis pays particular attention to structural factors such as endowment in natural resources, the role of policies and institutions as well as non-policy drivers of growth, including exogenous factors such as natural calamities, geography, and civil conflicts. The discussion highlights key constraints to growth in Africa and strategies to address these constraints.
Access to Finance: Constraints of growth-oriented enterprises
The starting point for a Focus Group Discussion was an exercise whereby the participants were asked to write down constraints they had encountered in growing or trying to grow their enterprises. These responses were printed on cards, which were placed, in clusters of similar constraints, on the wall for all to see. They became the starting point for more in-depth discussions and were used to reflect the groups' main concerns.

Capacity Utilization and Constraints
Capacity is the sum of what your organization can create, given its resources, to meet sales, demand, and product mix changes. Often it can’t react as quickly as you’d like, either up or down. You have noticed that. Choose the actions that fit your objectives, that can be effective within your organization’s culture and capability. Many actions are cost effective; choose what fits.

Sales Coach: High Level of Empathy In Selling Important?
Empathy is defined by Wikipedia as: “the capacity to recognize or understand another’s state of mind or emotion. It is often characterized as the ability to “put oneself into another’s shoes” or in some way experience the outlook or emotions of another being within oneself. Empathy does not necessarily imply compassion, or empathic concern because this capacity can be present in context of compassionate or cruel behavior.”

Identify your Marketing Constraint
As I mention in a previous post: Every System, typically has relatively few constraints. However, to operate at maximum efficiency, the limiting constraint must be identified. Five Steps of Continuous Improvement help identify and improve the constraint. How do I correlate the Marketing Hourglass with the Theory of Constraints? TOC uses the weakest link, a chain as a visual in working with throughput.
Value Stream Marketing: It’s just not about the Value
Of course when I start discussing flow, I am going to start discussing Theory of Constraints. In your marketing process, you will have numerous constraints but Goldratt claims that at any given time, there is only one constraint. That constraint is much like the neck of an hourglass and will limit the entire system. Actually, if it is well managed you could throttle your process accordingly (We only wish we could that). Simply doubling the efforts in a constraint could be the easy solution and may just move the constraint to another area. However, we operate in a more complicated world than that. Something else usually cases something else to happen.
Load Rage
If you are like most people, you are feeling a greater load of things to do and less time to do them. If this does not describe you, check your pulse, you may be dead! Although we are all incredibly busy, the fact is that we are still using less of our total capacity than we think. Nobody can sustain working at full capacity for long, but in truth we can manufacture time to help us deal with the load in more productive ways.

Speed Limits Do Not Reflect Your Capacity
When looking at cars, we all know that speed limits do not really reflect the capacity of how fast our cars can go. They are simply the law of how fast we are allowed to drive without running the risk of getting a ticket. Most of us drive cars with a capacity far beyond what the speed limit is. The same is true in our lives and the same is true about us. Most of us have a capacity far beyond the speed limit that we have imposed on ourselves. Far beyond the speed limit we have put on our business and career. What happens when we look at our capacity? Start to understand what we can really do. Look at all the talent, ability and gifts God gave us? .
