Can You Hear Me Now? – Good and Bad Examples of Facebook Fan Page Listening Skills [Opinion]
In the past here on DBMEI, I have written on the subject of utilizing listening skills via social networks in order to provide real-time solutions to real time problems on the business end of your customer’s service needs. I’ve openly admitted that these days, I often test those skills before making a serious purchase or [...]![]()

Nu fler platser till PMI-aktiviteten på Hilton “LUCK i Projektledning”
Vi är glada att idag meddela att Hilton Slussen gett oss ännu mer plats och utrymme för kvällen 2 februari. De tidigare 40 platserna gick åt glädjande fort – så nu kan vi vara 60.

Så – om du känner någon som är intresserad av PMI (Project Management International) och/eller LUCK-konceptet så tveka inte!

From Short List to Reading List
Two literary prize short lists were announced this past week from Asia and the Middle East.
My E-Mail Nightmare
I remember my early days of e-mail when AOL.com was the way to go. As technology advanced replacing dial-up connections, AOL fell out of favor by professionals who needed higher speed Internet access and a connection that did not tie up a phone line. After AOL, I subscribe to Yahoo! and was totally loyal for numerous years. I had one e-mail address and one address book with all my contacts listed in it. But then technology intervened again and that is where my nightmare began.![]()
Physical moves lead to digital ations
In our new era of the internetz, does it pay off to travel to promote your concept and book?
In 1.0 terms – no. You do not sell enough books unless you’re a celeb writer. For the rest of us – no. Train tickets, accomodation spins your budget. But…
But: in 2.0 terms, it’s different. Your presence will rush your book and concept to the top or at least top three in some people’s brains and reality. Provided…
Provided you have dialog tools supporting you. Great thing: They’re here! Even better: most of them are free! Yes, Internet changes EVERYTHING! Everything you can se, touch – but even everything you can feel and think will be influenced! Followers…
Followers are fans that are interconnected, and often even more convinced and hooked on the concept than you. Your followers are your tru heroes! The support you in so many means. It’s not for free. It costs…
So you’re introducing Lean? Part 2: Some early pitfalls – and hints
Wow! Only about an hour after I released part 1 there was a request for part 2. OK, let’s live this in full:
* Make sure top manangement REALLY got it! Unless you have top management support – don’t do it. You are in every detail extremely dependant on support from upper management. Action: Ask for “mentality to match the methods”, if this doesn’t work you MAY go for second best: An Agile mentality and methodology on your own level. This refers to the “Greenhouse Model” – creating a local culture that lasts as long as you are allowed to.
So you’re introducing Lean? Part 1: Some early pitfalls
So, you’ve hear about LEAN and decided to implement it? Congratulations! There’s a lot to learn and you will see it. There’s so much to learn, so I won’t introduce Lean Fatigue here – just a few hints as you enter the path…
* Lean is basically a philosopy – lots of Lean ventures fail in “Metodus Monumentalis” – entering too many new methods, and hence forgetting the mentality. All leadership starts in your own brain, belief system – and actions!
Entreprenörens tvivelsanalys – ett sätt att möta sina spöken

Är du entreprenör? Skapar du saker och idéer och gör det i motvind? Händer det att tvivlet drabbar dig? Idag under brunchen på väldigt trevliga kaféet “Karin på Ön” samtalade Christian Rudolf och jag om entreprenören och dennes/dennas vardag. Jag kom att tänka på den “avbrottsanalys” vi ibland genomför hos personer som upplever att de har destruktiva avbrott i arbetet.
