In those posts my aim is describe some of the thinking that leaders and his/her stakeholder community should wrestle: which begins with the general conception of morality, the aim to reduce or eliminate evil through reciprocity.

  • Business Creativity and Happiness: Strategic Conversations

    • In addition, I am in the process of writing on the subject of how authentic leaders should establish both a comfort in social media conversations personally (which might include blogging or might not, but surely includes joining or even forming social networks that they participate in fully) and a framework for them to adopt. Therefore, this opportunity regarding conversations is a perfect topic for me to posit some of my ideas for testing.

    • It is the responsibility of leaders to bring about this shift in behavior by having both a vision of integrity for the organization and a strategic plan for ensuring such integrity. This vision must be articulated in a way that is relevant and actionable by employees. A vision that aims too high will not be taken seriously while one that is too pedestrian will not motivate employees.
    • a wide base of knowledge and a life filled with challenge. Maturity expresses a commitment to courageously choose to define and protect ones social space in the presence of hostile forces while maintaining an adroit process of self-criticism and accountability for those choices. A wide base of knowledge infers more than a mere accumulation of data but rather an ongoing quest to be conversant with the many discourses and varied articulations they entail. Challenge-filled refers to a belief in a bursting forth of possibilities. This belief in open possibilities, limited by responsibility, explains the relationship between management and contextual leadership. Simply put, contextual leadership calls into question the very core of historical management rationale that emphasize rules, universality, and impartiality over contingent ways of reasoning that emphasize relationships, particularity, and partiality.

    • While an appropriate regard for, and disclosure of, the potential risks of providing our services is ethically mandated, these potential risks need to be evaluated within the context of the potential benefits to be derived from online interventions. A presentation of either the potential risks alone or the benefits alone is inherently biased and misleading.

    blog conversation discussion exchange on 2008-03-28

    • The sole purpose of my post was to discover who Barak Obama really is.
    • First, Levy and I have lots of differences. Number two, Levy is an extremely intelligent and fair minded individual who can engage in a lively discussion without becoming aggressive or irrational. So, he and I have agreed to write what amounts to a guest post for one another once a week. He will begin the conversation next week. I will print his post in its entirety on this blog. I will then post a complete response which will appear here as well as on his blog later the same week. We will do this for as long as it is productive. If you have suggestions on topics for us to discuss, please email them to me at billyjacksblog2008@yahoo.com.

    • Clinton’s campaign strategy in Iowa was a traditional one: Target those voters who had voted in the past — the most reliable kind of voters there are — and then get them to the polls. And some Clinton aides were openly contemptuous of Obama’s attempt to “expand the universe” and bring in younger voters.
  • Where did the tables turn? - Roger Simon - Politico.com

    • Except in Iowa, in January of this year, they did vote. Younger voters represented 22 percent of the vote in the Iowa caucus— the highest youth turnout in any state so far — and Obama got 57 percent of them to Clinton’s 11 percent. The youth vote, in fact, turned out to be about 30 percent of Obama’s total vote.
    • But to my way of thinking, Clinton’s loss in Iowa was a critical one, because she was no longer inevitable. She had let Obama into the game. She had let a candidate with money and a message get off to a running start. She had allowed him to become a credible candidate.

  • Mind your online reputation! It may work against you

    • “The next time you create an online profile, blog or post a comment on an e-forum, you better be careful. Online reputation matters and headhunters, employers can track all of it,” says Ratan.

      The advice comes as internet users are getting ever more candid about their personal lives and opinions on social networking and blogging sites.

    • A senior recruitment manager with a leading media company said, traditionally, verification checks are done by calling up previous employers. “But checking their online reputations is important,” she admitted, “because when he/she is working for your company, you’d want to make sure that the person is not breaching confidentiality clauses by sharing too much about the company.”

      The digital footprint is therefore emerging as a double-edged sword. It isn’t just job-hunters who need to be careful, but the prospective employers, too.

      On online forums, blogs and travelogues, internet users share experiences. This is why product review websites such as Mouthshut.com, which carry corporate blogs where consumers can directly interact with organisations, write product reviews. In candid posts, brand reputation can be marred easily.

  • Better students. Better faculty. Better reputation. With $1 billion it's all about change - News

    • Chancellor Nancy Cantor said Syracuse's reputation will be boosted immensely - giving the university visibility.

      "You're out there talking to thousands of people about the wonderful things that are happening at SU," Cantor said. "People think campaigns are totally about money-raising. It certainly is about raising money, but they are also about solidifying ideas about the place and talking about the identity of the institution, and all of that spreads the word about the institution."

      Eric Spina, vice chancellor and provost, says the campaign will enhance SU's faculty and increase its notoriety. In terms of faculty and endowed chairs,
  • Effort to Address Online Reputation Scoring Is Big First Step

    • The formation of the Open Reputation Management Systems Technical Committee is an important effort in a difficult area of interoperability. Even if the committee doesn't succeed, it may offer valuable lessons learned.
    • The assertion that "reputation is everything" may very well be true when applied to a corporation's brand equity. "Reputation" is a very broad term that encompasses a wide variety of factors which all contribute to forming an analysis of the degree to which an institution or individual can be trusted. Enterprise Internet reputation management is emerging as a critical component of business risk management strategies due to several factors, including Internet anonymity, the rise of social media, and the persistence and easy availability of information via search engines and other mechanisms. Successful enterprises understand the threats and opportunities inherent in helping build trust with customers, prospects, business partners, investors and employees online.

  • Wired 15.04: The See-Through CEO

    • Pretend for a second that you're a CEO. Would you reveal your deepest, darkest secrets online? Would you confess that you're an indecisive weakling, that your colleagues are inept, that you're not really sure if you can meet payroll? Sounds crazy, right? After all, Coke doesn't tell Pepsi what's in the formula. Nobody sane strips down naked in front of their peers. But that's exactly what Glenn Kelman did. And he thinks it saved his business.

    social intelligence enterprise on 2008-04-11 and saved by 5 people

    • Chief executive of Trampoline, Charles Armstrong, believes a generational shift is occurring in the way businesses achieve productivity gains, and in many ways he is right. From around the 60s through to the early 2000s, process automation was the main means by which firms achieved these ends, but once everything has been automated, where do you turn? Well, the answer according to Trampoline is to the collective or social intelligence of your staff. This is enterprise social networking – understanding how individuals and groups within the organisation interact and the expertise and knowledge they possess.
    • It could be viewed as the slow creeping of social networking ideas into the enterprise, just as other primarily consumer-based technologies have crept quietly into business over the years.
