Every good/big project has some project management activities. These have to produce artifacts from meetings - and store them accessible. If they don't - it is an evidence for miserable project management. Nothing really new. Every good/big project has some project management activities.

Especially, how the changed structure, behavior or relationships inside and outside of the enterprise affect the business. Another subject is the study of change and dynamics. Are all parts of the corporation affected in the same way? Or does parts of the business change more frequently (the HOW) and some remain stable over a longer period of time (the WHAT). This is the question I tried to discover using the <a href="http://techjava.de/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">TechPhrases wiki</a> . The question arise, how the dynamics can be addressed.

Shows very good that competition on the basis of speed is the right way to gain significant competitive advantages. Thas liese in the <a href="http://managermind.org/2007/on-dynamic-of-economy/" rel="nofollow">dymamic of todays economy</a> I found it very exiting how wisely that wooman talk about software development. Change-Tolerance will my personal buzz word in next time ;). Ok the "keep it simple" idea i considered allready bevore, i think. Further, that lady show us what to do to be time competitive and change tolerant. It is good idea to have multiple options and it is good idea to defer ireversible desisions to latest possible point. Sounds simple isn't ? :) Very interessting video. Shows very good that competition on the basis of speed is the right way to gain significant competitive advantages.

]]> Comment on Focusing on core business by managermind http://managermind.org/2007/focusing-on-core-business/#comment-13 managermind Tue, 11 Dec 2007 16:54:43 +0000 http://managermind.org/2007/focusing-on-core-business/#comment-13 Thank you for comment Simon, you of cause right about such trends. Additionally it can be said, that traditional capital markets prefer universal enterprises, because that minimizes risk of capital. On the other side investors can spread their capital on multiple companies that focuses on their core capabilities and preserving low risk of capital by having greater yield opportunity. That is the modern investment. My intention was to say, that focusing on core capabilities is better strategy and is that, what we can see today. I think that it is aslo right long-term strategy for the future, cause quality of products and services is very important today and stay it in the future. Today's customers are ready to pay more for high-quality products! People don't want to have cheap things, they wanna have high quality, hot image products for low price. That is mostly independent of market trends. So Companies have to satisfy them. In that situation, be just "good" is not enough. Be good and spend resources on continuous development is the way todevelop, to be the best. And bests have high yields! :) My personal believe is that focusing on core business can lead to new heights in every thing you or someone do. That is the simple deliberation in behind.

]]> Comment on Corporate IT vs. Vendor IT. (vs. Consultant IT?) by managermind http://managermind.org/2007/corporate-it-vs-vendor-it-vs-consultant-it/#comment-12 managermind Tue, 11 Dec 2007 16:19:42 +0000 http://managermind.org/2007/corporate-it-vs-vendor-it-vs-consultant-it/#comment-12 I found it is interesting. E.g. following thought preoccupies me to: "So a clear win for the corporates on that one. The next up is the worry that you can't become the CEO if you work in a corporate in IT. Now this is pretty fair, but you can become the CIO and be responsible for a multi-billion dollar budget which doesn't seem too bad and given the choice between that an CEO of a small product company then I have to say I'm with the CIO of a large corporate. Lets be generous here and say that the vendors win this one." I found it is interesting. E.g. following thought preoccupies me to:

In the eighties, the vision of the universal enterprise dominated the market: larger enterprises supported multiple business domains, resulting in a high product diversity from mobile phone to power plant. This idea follows a basic paradigm of investment management, propagating the adequate spread for risk minimization. This strategy especially applies for the time of economic boom. Growing economy results in a high ROI in different domains. In particular, the investment strategy is minimizing the impact of the stock market crash, distributing the investment to different domains. This process is supported by continous takeovers from small enterprises. In times of economic stagnation, this strategy turns out to be inefficient. The spread between the business domain result in a capital split. The recession period allows only enterprises with a strong market position achieve high ROI. In times of high competition, the market leadership can only be hold due to advantages, that usually require consolidation of investment strategy and know-how. Therefor, the enerprises outsource their supporting activities and sell whole product divisions, concentrating on their core competences. The two trends co-exist in the same time. Especially, they are dependent on the market situation in every particular domain. In addition, the classic "investment" management prefers the first strategy. In contrast, the "operational" or "domain-specific" management favours the second strategy. Strategic management of larger enterprises is market-trend-driven domain.
