SEPTEMBER 29, 2012

Organizations are made up of us, humans, who often goof up. How often do we offer/see a heartfelt apology in corporate world? As leaders, we find it too difficult to apologize. We take the route of excuses and self-justification. For issues with new Maps, Apple’s CEO Tim Cook offered a public apology and showed once again why Apple is so admired. Seeking apology is a sign of strong character. It shows compassion and brings you/others out of an unchangeable past. It generates credibility. Apology is not just nice words put together. Looking forward to the conversations!

I live in a city with a major state university and things are starting to get a little crazy this week. Hundreds of college students are buying dress clothes, running off resumes as Kinkos and removing nose rings and covering tattoos. It can only mean one thing. Employers are in town. It's time to start interviewing for jobs and internships, and it appears they're right on track. Follow up.

Zinger Friday Factoid: Thinking? David Rock offered us something to think about:  A study of 6,000 people conducted by the  NeuroLeadership Group  in collaboration with a large healthcare firm asked respondents questions about where, when, and how people did their best thinking.  Only 10 percent said it happened at work. Commentary. You almost don’t want to think about this and if you are at work it looks like you probably are not thinking all that well. In our age of knowledge workers not to have people thinking their best is the worst brain drain an organization can experience.

OCTOBER 5, 2012

Dear HR Tech Conference Expert: My travel reservations are confirmed, and I can’t wait to visit the Windy City for the 2012 HR Technology Conference & Exposition ! Our company is in the very early stages of selecting a new performance management system to replace our manual processes, so “kicking all the vendors’ tires under one roof” will be a great way to compare software and evaluate what’s right for our midsize company. My problem is, I’ve never attended an industry trade show of this size. Create your vision. Take a cue from Stephen Covey and begin with the end in mind. Work your plan.

The Cloud I''m finding out more about how the Cloud will work for customers. I''ve heard many concerns about the perceived limitations of using SaaS because customers won''t be able to ''customise'' their applications. I''m not a great supporter of this idea, because SaaS is a Service you are buying, not an application you install yourself and then can do what you like with it. But, Oracle have come up with an intriguing idea - ''Java in the Cloud'' or ''Platform as a Service''. Mobility Mobility is a big theme here this week. Fusion Tap is now available from the Apple iStore.

Today I want to spend a little more time on the topic of speed because there is much more to the story than I shared last time, especially when it comes to the delivery of three updates to our suite of enterprise cloud applications a year. Moving with speed in enterprise software is as much about service delivery as it is about technical architecture
