Joy Division - Love will tear us apart again

Today, while I'm looking for some cigarettes and a can of beer to walk the lonely night I sing this song, I think if the night ends in Nebula, and if I go, will this song? When

routine bites hard,
And Ambitions Are Low.
And Resentment rides high, But emotions
won't grow.
And we're Changing Our Ways,
Taking Different Roads.

Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.

Why is the bedroom so cold?
Turned away on your side.
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect run so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal,
That we've kept through our lives.

Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.

Do you cry out in your sleep?
All my failings exposed...
Gets a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold.
Why is it something so good
Just can't function no more?

Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear up apart again.

Always do the simplest

Una de las famosas frases de Albert Einstein es " Everything should be made as simple as possible - But No Simpler "has often been misunderstood and widely this expression, we in Aureal always try to find that our programmers to follow the advice code to keep everything as simple as possible, but of course there are things that need complexity. The same thing happens with the products we make, the interfaces that we try to be as simple as possible. But sometimes you just can not, this is a business and the customer that their needs is taking final decisions.

course there is the other type of clients, in general, other people, they're saying that "the tool should be easy use "but not really understand what they are saying? Who makes the fence of the facility in this or that level? The average user? No. That is sometimes necessary to illustrate the complexity of the task to achieve in order to put a fence on the level of ease of use of the tool. Specific examples are many, flying a 777, is simple? Using CAD software or 3D model is simple things? Select staff, choosing a car, it is simple?

do well to think a little more about the complexity that is behind the things that sometimes we wish they were simpler, there are sometimes good reasons why something is not as simple as you want, and sometimes just the process itself is complex or is that sometimes the need for the tool that we do is so subjective that a tool may not satisfy everyone, and if we try to do so flexible that would satisfy the majority end up with a tool difficult to use "and probably ugly.

Why Does It Say Unknown Number

Preserving the health of employees

A growing concern among business leaders in the health and welfare of their employees, especially because it is increasingly clear that both are essential for increased value creation. The most obvious is that usually the cost of health plans increases when workers are infirm or have unhealthy lifestyles also increase the days lost disease, decreases productivity and also in day to day and finally there is an impact on company morale.

Today there are even companies that encourage and help staff to achieve goals like losing weight, quitting smoking and reducing stress. Her own experience dictates, if one is in poor health simply doing their job, however if you do your job okay with more enthusiasm, as well as feel good, energetic and motivated.

Several international companies are examples of such policies, one of which is the medical center at the University of Pittsburgh, they give an incentive for workers to comply with certain requirements, which include regular free medical checkups and participation in programs such as exercise classes on-site. These policies have resulted in a reduction in cases of back pain, obesity and use of snuff. In general they have recovered many hours lost due to absences related to health and now, its workers produce more per hour than before.

Philips has gone a step further, using technology now encouraging their employees to increase their level of daily activity, not about joining a gym, or running, is simply setting the goal of active people (not your desk or bed) for 30 minutes a day. It seems very little, but it is amazing how many people now move from the bed to the activity to prepare for the job, which usually consists of a shower and a walk of 1 or 2 blocks to fate, then 1 or 2 blocks to the elevator, a few feet to the desktop, and at the end of the day make the opposite way. Philips daily activity is measured with a device that can be pocketed in a bracelet, a chain, wallet, etc. This device connects to a PC to download the information and sent as a personalized system of activity in which each employee fits your goals and then progress reports that include things like weight loss or just a minor sensation tired to make some effort physical. We at Aureal

have private health insurance for workers, and we plan to work on a proposal for the company to take over the discount to be made monthly to the employee for such insurance if they meet goals set for themselves in improving their health. We will not have the Philips technology, but we hope this experience will improve the lives of our staff and produce a great result for a company that has a high rate of respiratory problems, stomach problems, migraines, etc. I hope to talk soon on the results achieved.

free time and predictable performance required

Companies that offer consulting services usually have a culture of response 24 / 7 even by phone. Those who work in services, whether accountants, lawyers, computer engineers, programmers, etc. usually do our work as important in our lives. According to a survey by HBR in 2008, 94% of this class of professionals work over 50 hours a week, and almost half of them came up to 65 hours per week, which does not include, above all for us systems, the time we spent monitoring services, testing or checking our e-pages over working hours.

Today is a new trend is emerging, based on experiments conducted by some consultants are beginning to establish fixed and uninterrupted free time, and still give the same result to the client, and in some cases even better one. Basically it is to impose a strict mechanism to take time off every so often fixed, foster teamwork and communication above all, encourage experimentation with new forms of work and above all support this new movement. Aureal

We are thinking on how to implement this behavior started some time ago to require us to internally prepare work schedules, more control for all projects and more communication. But we need to take a few more steps. First, to make it possible for part of the group taking time off is necessary to have a group. We have therefore decided not to have one person draft. In addition it will facilitate the exchange of knowledge within the company and force us to have internal meetings with project progress more regularly, weekly review progress of projects, the potential problems of the week, will resolve questions about how to resolve outstanding issues and determine what strategy to take time off to fulfill its assigned personnel. The first idea would be that each take a half day off a week per month, beyond the normal holiday.

Another objective is to establish summer time, for which it is also necessary to make internal adjustments in order to fill the hours that are not working on Fridays for the space last summer's schedule. Also be established for that equipment to be respected to ensure that the daylight savings time is possible.

is important to note that these changes should not affect the quality of the final product we deliver, we are aware that small companies like ours is essential to the working staff is paramount, and deliver quality work and show a real commitment to customer is our best presentation. Finally, the convenience provided to the staff can not go against the creation of value for the company. As with our policy of having no input schedules and a policy of taking all the holidays you need, this policy seeks fixed free time just encourage imagination, sharing, speed and overall quality of the products we develop.

Many times, as almost anyone, when we face the challenge of improving the way we measure the performance of our company we tend to think "hard and boring." So usually these tasks are delegated, usually people with great skill in working with spreadsheets, but little business acumen. The result? A bunch of numbers with little meaning for the business. We should think? There are several common mistakes that we made in trying to measure business performance.

measure ourselves against ourselves. First big mistake, usually compare ourselves against our own plans or our own budgets, we are seeing a market in which we exist just us. It is not real. To really know how we're doing is necessary gather information on how you go to the market, industry, business-size, direct competitors. This can be achieved without the need to steal information, often information can be shared, in our case in particular events and organizations such as Lima Valley serve us as a barometer of the market.

Looking back. In addition to comparing against the budget, is almost a given that we compare against the previous year's situation, which leads to a very common trap, improving last year's number does not mean something has been achieved. The measurements you should indicate whether the decisions you're taking will help the company in the coming months. We must find figures that help to create value. A U.S. insurance company admitted that 10% of their patients was responsible for 80% of its costs, patients on diseases that were not discovered in time, immediately encouraged their customers to free exams to rule out these diseases, in the months after such costs were reduced obviously. Also one must see not only what one is doing, or what the competition is doing, must also be able to analyze not doing, for example, a bank should assess the same weight that an agent manages loans and it fails to place a few months later can be verified the status of the client and if they enter into a financial problem, the agent did not give a loan should be repaid. But usually this kind of statistics is ignored.

put all our faith in the numbers . Good or bad any measurement comes to us in numbers. The problem with companies that are guided by the data to produce performance reports is that they often produce poor quality data. For example, if we force an agency to obtain a minimum percentage of survey data quality customer service, usually the head of the agency that employees will "monitor" to clients so that they complete the survey, is unlikely that these surveys produce reliable data. Then there is the problem of selecting the wrong metric, or not knowing how to react to the metrics. Another problem arises in the seeking of economic justifications for all investments, but some, like the ROI of training programs is difficult or impossible to calculate. Play

figures. It is natural to man, when one is coming to visit is likely to clean the house, ordered the office, go to the hairdresser, depending on the situation will take a decision to look better. The same applies to business. In 2002 Clifford Chance law firm command an internal memo encouraging them to be used more hours of senior lawyers instead of juniors to meet the goals. You can not avoid inflating figures you want, even when we have the best company in the world, you will always want to look even better. From the moment a metric set is generated an invitation to those involved to manipulate it. What can be done? Different metrics can be used instead of just one goal. You can use different sources (colleagues, other areas, customers, community) can be divided by horizons, internal, value generation, conservation value, you can use different time frames, all that complexity has a cost but also makes make it more difficult to handle all the digits. Finally, it is now becoming more common not only provide incentives for areas that do not use your entire budget, but also the areas that exceed and can demonstrate that the use of the same will create more value in the future.

Stick to the numbers long. It is true that one can only control what you can measure. However, no measure of performance can move as fast as the movement of the business itself, especially in small businesses. In addition, the figures may represent a situation that is not what we believe. A recent example is the business of financial risk analysis, they evaluated many clients as AAA, a lot of them ended up being bad payers. The analysts maintained their rating, saying that this had been based on the credit records of customers, and only described the general behavior of the customer in normal times. In times of crisis the AAA rating meant nothing.

Measuring Risk - II

Following the previous post, we are seeing a number of errors that commonly make when managing risk.

a deeply rooted in those who understand some risk is that this can be measured by standard deviations. We get an average, we estimate the deviation and the bigger the risk is higher. Perhaps the logic behind this belief is correct, but the truth is that the standard deviation indicates that in a world where few things are predictable about 2 / 3 of the changes on the average will fall within predictable limits (+1 / -1 standard deviation) and that changes beyond 7 times the standard is almost impossible, however, if we see real life in the last great stock market crash had movements that exceeded 30 times the estimated standard deviations for certain sectors bag. That is why you need risk analysis methods that do not use the standard deviation. Anyone seeking a number that represents the risk is looking for trouble.

Another concept that it is difficult to understand is the human paradox of mathematical understanding, which is numerically equivalent, psychologically it is not. For example, the reaction of people will probably be different if they are indicating they are likely to lose all your money in an investment only every 30 years, that if they are told they have a 3.3% probability of losing money each year. The same applies for example in airplane flights. A group of people were told that Statistics showed 1 accident every 1000 years. All said they would take the plane. Then another group were told they would fall off a flight in 1000. Only 70% wanted him to take. In both the probability of an accident was the same, just made differently.

Finally we have become accustomed to certain behaviors in companies misunderstood or taken to an inappropriate level can have profound effects. Do not tolerate redundancy, this is seen more as a waste, as if by subtracting value for shareholders. Nature teaches us that redundancy is sometimes necessary. Bodies fail us most usually the lungs and kidneys, nature gave us 2, it can survive with one. Redundancy in its purest form. Another concept that we have sold as positive leverage, it is not so, debt makes the company a higher percentage of weak, if we are highly indebted, we could end up losing everything if we are left without work? The same goes for companies, a high debt ratio can profoundly affect a lost sales target, the exchange rate fluctuations and interest rates change.

Another aspect is the over-specialization have even been theories that dictated that to achieve the optimum efficiency level of each country should strive to produce only one product where are the best. This theory obviously does not consider the abrupt, unexpected, such as climate change, drought for example.

One of the great myths of capitalism is that it is incentives. In fact the use of offsets increases the risks. Being rewarded can encourage executives to make decisions that bring the company to generate a profit percentage, but also taking a percentage of risk. Over the years would collect a lot of incentives, but falling into the risks that these decisions have generated executives to apologize, but of course, would not remove the incentives. Industry becomes increasingly more common to find CEOs with investors millionaires broken. Finally

remember, the greatest risk is within our perception of ourselves Over-estimate our abilities and under-estimate the things that we could make mistakes.
