Sarbatori fericite si La multi ani!

In cadrul evenimentului "Enterprise 3.0 - Concept & Tehnologie", organizat pe 2 noiembrie 2010, ne-am propus sa prezentam o noua perspectiva de management, cu ajutorul careia partenerii nostri obtin avantaje competitive intr-un mediu de afaceri in continua schimbare. Ne-am concentrat pe intelegerea fundamentelor conceptului de Enterprise 3.0, in relatia cu practica de afaceri si cu abordarea de consultanta a Enterprise Concept. Demonstratiile si exemplele oferite de TIBCO Software au evidentiat modalitati prin care se actioneaza eficient si in timp real. Am concluzionat cu o provocare adresata industriei de tehnologia informatiei: Democratizarea Software-ului.

Acest eveniment s-a desfasurat pentru a transmite idei, pentru a crea si dezvolta parteneriate de inovatie. Un aspect important pe care l-am transmis este acela ca Enterprise Concept a pornit acum 5 ani, in data de 2 noiembrie de la o misiune: de a unifica logica de business cu zona de IT din cadrul companiilor. Am reusit sa trecem de acest obstacol, combinand standardizarea cu creativitatea si cu profesionalismul echipei de consultanti.

Va invitam sa consultati prezentarile de la eveniment aici, precum si o selectie de fotografii aici.

Mai jos veti gasi o scurta descriere a principalelor teme, precum si agenda evenimentului.

Atunci cand am vazut acesta prezentare inspirationala (la recomandarea D-lui George Cretu, CEO), am realizat ca pot construi orice mesaj pornind de la modelul descris de Simon Sinek.

Simon Sinek: How great leaders inspire action, Ted Talks

"Simon Sinek has a simple but powerful model for inspirational leadership all starting with a golden circle and the question "Why?" His examples include Apple, Martin Luther King, and the Wright brothers -- and as a counterpoint Tivo, which (until a recent court victory that tripled its stock price) appeared to be struggling. "

The reasons for writing this article are the importance to know the rules of corporate blogs and the tips for writing a successful one.

First, let’s define what may be a corporate blog.

According to Wikipedia, “A corporate blog is a weblog published and used by the organization to reach its organizational goals. Although there are many different types of corporate blogs, most can be categorized as either external or internal.

An internal blog, generally accessed through the corporation's Intranet, is a weblog that any employee can view. An external blog is a publicly available weblog where company employees, teams, or spokespersons share their views.”

How our corporate blog started?

Innovations occur as a response to necessities. The need for security and certitude that what you’re doing is correct is also very important. That is why rules, norms and laws were invented and have to be followed in order to be sure of success. A sort of “legislation” is needed even in the creation department. When you need to be sure everything is understood well and problems caused by simple misunderstandings won’t occur, a methodology is required.

Over time there have been several attempts or versions of a methodology that works for any project, but the greatest issue of these methodologies is that they are not completely applicable for every project. In fact, this is not surprising, so all we had to do was to study very well the existing “laws”. What we discovered was Prince2. So after a good reading we grabbed all the available material and we molded it for our own needs.

Now the technical side of the project! This application had to answer to some important requirements: extended accessibility for anyone who needs to use it – therefore it had to be online, simple and efficient document management along the projects evolution, easy and safe document generating and, last but not least, creating pdf’s in order to further approval.

This project was a real challenge for us, “the parents of Methorator”, because we had skills in programming and in working with databases but our skills were lacking concerning PHP and Java Script – the programming languages that we needed for creating an online application. But after creating only a few web pages, the further development of the portal became natural and easy. Surely, we encountered a few problems during the weeks we spent in developing the portal. We would follow a certain path and later on we would discover that the solution was not perfect. Then we would rewind the situation and give it a wide discussion debating all points of view and then we found the way out of the problem. Several times I had the impression that we had to go through a maze in order to get the solution to a glorious end, but sometimes we chose the wrong path. What always worked in solving our problems was gathering the whole team for a debate and a brainstorm.

With a high level of usability in generating and managing a project’s specifications, managing a project’s human resources that can have access to creating, editing or approving these docs, Methorator helps out the project manager in monitoring his project and taking the right decisions. He defines the project on the portal, attaches the companies that are involved in it – the customer and the supplier, and then invites the participants – the human resources. Methodology intervenes from the very step of creating the project: the project’s default stages are added, they contain the default documents with the default titles. These default assets are mandatory for a good development of the project.

I send my thanks to all my colleagues for an excellent cooperation!
