3 Surprising Mathematical Principles That Every Persuasive Marketer Must Know
| |
| Having a perception is different from understanding a perception.
Imagine you are standing in front of a box of sand. If you start pouring water into that sand, it will form a particular pattern and start flowing along those particular lines. Even if you pour in more water, it will essentially continue to flow along only in that pattern.
In the same way, the brain is a self-organizing system. When information goes in, it flows only in a particular pattern.
When you face the kind of problem that you cannot even begin to explain how to explain it, it means that it is not a problem of logic. It is a problem of perception.
You have to go back and look into your perceptions, not logic, because, as Gödel’s theorem has shown us, logic has flaws. |

3.6 Securing incomes: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| Societies at all levels of development face the challenge of organizing
systems to provide security against contingencies such as sickness, accident,
death of the main breadwinner, disability, old age, maternity and unemployment
that make individuals, families and communities vulnerable to poverty.
Through solidarity and fair burden sharing, social security systems contribute
to human security, dignity, equity and social justice. They are also a foundation
for political inclusion, empowerment and the development of
democracy. Half of the world’s population is excluded from any type of
social security protection, with the rate of coverage varying from almost
100 per cent in some industrialized countries to less than 10 per cent in the
poorest developing countries. |

Inspiring Innovation & Creativity through Business Systems
| |
| Ok, I admit: "I am a big fan of systems, Its all about Systems". It could just be the Mechanical Engineer and Business Analyst coming out in me, but it goes much deeper than that. It is definitely grounded in my recent experiences with systems.
We are surrounded by systems, and our lives revolve around them and rely on them working infallibly. The cars (or motorbikes) we drive, the computers we use and the human bodies we live in, are all brilliantly refined and intricate systems that we use everyday. We expect them to work predictably and consistently every time we use them.

Getting Bigger and Better: Managing the TOP 10 Risk Factors for Growing Companies
| |
| The framework for addressing the 10 Risk Factors is the Organizational Backbone. The vertebrae of this backbone are a company’s Strategies, Systems and Skills:
Strategies set the direction and provide context for the business and its employees.
Systems reinforce strategies. They are broadly defined as ‘the way that work gets done’.
Skills enable effective execution of systems and adaptability to new systems.
Most growing companies find that their Organizational backbone is misaligned – a natural result of high-growth.

BOOK REVIEW: Finding Our Way: Leadership For an Uncertain Time (By Margaret J. Wheatley, Berrett-Koehler, 2005, ISBN #978-1-57675-317-0)
| |
| Finding Our Way challenges us to see the enterprises we lead in new light. It presents our organizations as living, substantially self-organizing systems of interacting human beings, not elaborate machines. Tools such as performance standards, metrics, missions, goals, project plans and job descriptions can certainly guide and influence employee behavior but they cannot force it or control it. This reality can frustrate the control-oriented manager. Wheatley offers several strategies to lead effectively in such systems. |

Stop Reinventing the Wheel: Create Systems to Save Time and Money
| |
| Most of us run our lives on a handful of systems. Between our smart phones, calendars, and our e-mail inboxes, we have organized ourselves and our time. And if you ever doubt the importance of these systems, recall your panic the last time you couldn’t access your email or your hard drive crashed.
Yet as important as these systems are, most of us don’t take advantage of what systems can do to improve our businesses and simplify our lives. Systems are simply ways of automating or structuring processes so that they can occur systematically without so much thought or attention-and by more than just one person, so that the business can continue to run if the owner takes a vacation.
