Do You Have a Corporate-Web Speech Impediment?
| |
| I spend a lot of time talking about websites. I'm always talking to clients, potential clients, job seekers, industry pros and my fellow Orbiteers and I've noticed a few things about how people talk about websites: people use a lot of fancy words. Naturally, the web has brought about a lot of new things that needed new words. But somehow it also led to more technical words for some simple ideas. |

Don’t Hire a Web Developer to Build Your Website!
| |
| I was a meeting with a client recently and he mentioned that he was considering hiring a programmer from overseas to help complete a small web project. He felt it just made more sense financially. I asked him, “who will be doing the project management, design, information architecture and testing?”. He looked puzzled. “Can’t the web developer do all of this?”. |

ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE THE NEW LANGUAGE OF MANAGEMENT
| |
| Enterprise Architecture is rapidly becoming to management thinking what mathematics is to the engineering of physical systems. The primary purpose of Enterprise Architecture is to make the invisible visible. Management Consultants that are not already versed in Enterprise Architecture appear to be scrambling to learn its principles. |

Sloppy naming
| |
| If you've got more than one product or service, you have a problem. You need to decide if there's going to be an architecture to the way you name things. General Motors has a division, Chevrolet. Chevrolet makes cars, and each car has a name (Corvette, Impala). They have an architecture in place that makes some things clear very quickly. |

How does the complexity theory apply to business? (A Brief Dialogue)
| |
| Member Question:
Has anyone applied complexity theory to business in a practical way?
Asheville, U.S.
My Response:
The chaos theory and butterfly effect are interesting concepts in terms of the “complexity” of business.
Over a number of years and through funding from the Government of Canada’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Program I developed a theory called strand commonality.
In the area of supply chain practice for example (although the term “chain” is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture instead of the synchronized architecture that represents the dynamic characteristics of different stakeholders within the real-world), one seeks to understand the unique operating attributes of individual stakeholders using an agent-based model.

Moving Up In Life
| |
| It has been accurately stated that when you hire somebody smarter than yourself, you prove you are smarter than they are. We can apply that to all areas of ability. The sales manager should strive diligently to hire sales people who are better at selling than he or she is. That way they can share information and they will both be even more effective. Also, by continuing to learn from each sales person, the manager will stay one step ahead of all of them. Exactly the same thing applies in coaching. A good head coach seeks assistant coaches who know more about their specialty than he does and he learns from them. Ditto for managers in manufacturing, engineering, architecture, etc. |

Suffering from Information Marketing Overload
| |
| TMI really is Too Much Information sometimes. In a world overflowing with more information we could possibly process let alone implement, it makes me wonder – do I really need to know all of this in order to be successful? How much information does my prospect base need to know as well? When is enough, enough – or too much information – way too much information? |

Two-Sided Answers

| The room was lovely, the bed inviting, the architecture interesting, and the philosophy appealing. That was my impression as we checked into a newly minted green-hotel in a resort town where we were eager to spend time relaxing. |

Strong website structure – the basis of successful SEO
| |
| Is your website structured properly? We're not really talking graphical web design or WYSIWYG web development here. We're talking structure; the way your website hangs together technically. Its usability, its hierarchy, the user experience and information architecture of your site. |
