The Three Laws of Performance

The Three Laws of Performance Book Author: Steve Zaffron & Dave Logan

When a hurricane warning is announced, everyone's concerns and actions become focused on that expectation; the hurricane essentially becomes the future which people are "living into." Similarly, when an organization needs to transform or make the leap to a higher level, everyone involved should be "living into" the vision of the organization's new, improved future. But in the majority of organizations, the future people are living into is based on past performance and experience, and so major transformation is almost impossible.

2 Days Red Day Challenge course review.

It was pouring rain but I made it to the venue on time. Hot coffee and a very friendly group of people were gathering in the ‘Red room’ of course.

Jo Hassan, the Coach, was ready for us… to give us 2 thrilling days on how to get a life, in the real sense of the word.

The process is well written out, the examples given during the course are very practical. There is a fair bit of interaction and sharing experiences and morning tea , lunch and afternoon tea are coming around just when you are ready to have them!



The New Revolution: Open Source in the Enterprise

Open source technologies can be traced back to the late 1970s when Richard Stallman, a former programmer at MIT A1 Laboratories, launched the GNU Project and Free Software Foundation.

The ultimate goal of the GNU project was to produce a free operating system. Since then there has been some significant GNU projects such as Apache (a www Server), Perl (interpreted program language) Mozilla (a www browser) and Linux (an open source operating system supported by companies such as Redhat Corporation).

The 4-hour Work Week

The 4-hour Work Week Book Author: Timothy Ferriss

Tim Ferriss has trouble defining what he does for a living. Depending on when you ask this controversial Princeton University guest lecturer, he might answer: 'I race motorcycles in Europe', 'I ski in the Andes', 'I scuba dive in Panama', 'I dance tango in Buenos Aires'. He has spent more than five years learning the secrets of the 'New Rich', a fast-growing subculture that has abandoned the 'deferred-life plan' and instead mastered the new currencies - time and mobility - to create a new way of living. Why wait a lifetime for your retirement when you can enjoy luxury now?
