Build your own language - don't just accept the language of others?

Analysis of Analysis:: Transparent Frameworks or Stupid Subversive Political Survival Games?
This lack of introspection and transparency effectively choked the potential for innovation in the business and destroyed its ability to scale - beyond the capabilities of a few insecure, yet powerful middle managers.
When Mr Robot left the company, he spent some time designing a formal framework for "business analysis: communications process and performance measurement" and for introducing elements of opennest, honesty and transparency into the process.
Whatsmore this "analysis of analysis" template can be applied at almost no expense.
Except for the obvious cost of getting rid of a few of your most disagreeable middle managers - of course.

Zillion Dollar IT Security Industry made for Kids!
My father said that when the Internet first came out and the web got started that it was really easy to kill a website dead by running a 10 line script against the target IP or IPX address. He said that with 5 lines of code he could hack a company's webpage and turn the logo from pink to green. He said with 20 lines of code, he could seize control of a remote windows server and use its CPU and harddrives to backup his own music collection files. He said in 25 lines of code he could control hundreds of machines and use them to test worms out as they traversed through the Internet. Funny thing is - after all these years and all the money invested in the IT security industry - i found out at university that nothing has changed. In fact i found out that in many instances, i could reduce the number of lines of code required to carry out the exploit.
HELLO IS ANYBODY OUT THERE????? HELLO IT SECURITY INDUSTRY!!!! DID YOU KNOW THAT NOTHING HAS CHANGED????? HELLO - HELLO GOVERNMENTS!!!! DID YOU KNOW THAT NOTHING HAS CHANGED??????

Lotus Notes:: Where IBM lost the PC Marketplace
In 1999 (MrRobot) was on the verge of selling IBM a strategy for the PC software marketplace that would have seen Lotus Notes blow holes in Microsoft's position in the marketplace. He knew that Notes had a feature set way beyond its years, although a great deal needed to be done under the hood to make it robust. But at the time, this feature set presented the world with "killer features", such as replication, rapid application development and fast web deployment capabilities - amongst others.
It is true Notes wasn't for the purist programmer or for the relational database thinker.
But Notes was a strategists dream and with it IBM could have created some serious disruption in the PC Software Marketplace. Problem was, IBM was missing one important attribute — strategic intent!
Had IBM repostured Lotus towards a PC Software Marketplace takeover — there would have been a lot more yellow and black on the software landscape — than Microsoft white and blue.
Poor strategy IBM."

Letter to an Inspirational Genius - John F. Nash (Mathematician)
15.12.2007
Dear Mr Nash,
Thank you for being such an inspiration in my (Mr Robots) life. I don’t know you, but I feel that you must have “a beautiful mind”.
What you managed to do with your life was to take the path of - 'most resistance' and face it out even if it drove you to mental illness. You decided to take risks that others would never take. You decided that it wasn't enough to reach the highest standards set by one of the greatest minds that ever lived (Albert Einstein). You decided it wasn't enough to contribute works to a standard where you would be acknowledged and safe.
You decided that your own worth was less than your art and nothing was going to stop you, not even your own mental illness.
God has truly been with you in your life and for this, I thank you for being the messenger.
I thank you for never giving up on the human spirit, for “your original idea” and for “the mysterious equations of love”.
Love & Light, Nobel prize winner (John F. Nash)

Divorcing the Brand from the Company : Not good for business?
She built a multi-million empire over a period of some sixteen years. She was the brand - she was the player. Then in one brief moment in time, her adventure was over. She was cast adrift from the apparatus of her own success. Thrown off the stage. Seemingly never to return.
Some years later, in amongst the rubble of self-delusion, fame, hope, fear and fortune - she found a child. This child let others take the responsibility for once. This child didn't wear armour anymore. Didn't have to always be right. This child just was.
One day this child came to her and said - why don't you begin again? Why don't you just be you?
Upon hearing the child, she remembered who she was and decided to be herself again. And so it was that she built a new company, much bigger and more successful than the last. In fact it did so well, it put her first company out of business.
You can take the company away from the brand - but you should never take the brand away from the company. It is just not good business.
Listen only to your spirit:: Or Stop until you find it again?
Business is full of self-interested people - whether they say nice things or nasty things. Always has been - always will be. What the road to (so called) failure taught me was that we are all essentially alone in this world and that more importantly - we must take our ques from our own inner spirit. Under those conditions - it does not matter what other people say or think.
Problem comes when you lose your baby (and your spirit with it). I have spent 6 years grieving in the wilderness myself - but i know i will find it again.
Don't ask me how. I just know.
Listen only to your inner spirit - Or Stop until you find it again?

Reptilian Minds:: Why intelligence agencies should hire video game players?
There is a part of our brain called the "reptilian cortex" that enables human beings to react more effectively to attacks by external predators. It is this part that helped our ancestors deal with fight or flight responses to attacks by sabre tooth tigers, tyranosaurs and the like. In todays modern society this part of our brain is rarely active. Whilst we are expected to deal with ever greater complexity, which creates new forms of stress and anxiety, we rarely have need to call upon the reptilian cortex. Soliders in battles, firefighters, the Police and the like will know it only too well, but to the general public, it is less used.
In an ideal world, there is little need for citizens to have a highly developed "reptilian brain". In an ideal world we don't want our citizens to have to be responding to terrorising events and shocking scenes. In an ideal world, we want our citizens to rely on us to protect them and for them to get on with their lives, their businesses and their hopes for the future.
Problem comes when you realise that we don't live in an ideal world. In fact such a world does not exist. Never did - never will? Then what?
One ethical answer to this problem is to recruit young people into the intelligence and security services who have particularly well developed reptilian brains. Young people who have for many years been conditioned to respond to external threat. Young people who know how to deal with adversity and who each and every day solve problems associated with uncertainty. Young people who know what it is like to play victim and more importantly to undertake a predatory role.
The role playing video game - shootem-up superstars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you represent a company and you want to hire field officers, sales people and the like - look to the end of their Resume - where it says "other interests".
You never know, you just might have a world champion reptilian in your midst!

The Corporate Memory:: CEO's - don't start work without it!
"If i take the job of CEO - I carry the can, the buck stops here, it's my neck on the line". "Now we got that straight - this is what i want !!".
"I want you to hire a small team of intelligence analysts to set-up systems and acquire information from every orifice in the virtual enterprise - that's relevant information about customers, competitors, suppliers and ourselves". I want each of the department heads to design a one page reporting model for their area that links in KPI metrics, high level financials, performance statistics, risk register and social responsibility and ethics metrics.
"I want to hire a business intellgence analyst to draw up a specification for the design of a virtual enterprise model and use the incoming intelligence to tailor the model to accomodate our future strategic perspective. I want intranet input feeds for all our staff, so they can also enter competitive intelligence data into the model. I want to introduce a "competitive intelligence" awareness programme and motivate managers to encourage their staff to make regular submissions to the CI process. Anyone who doesn't care about C.I - tell them to find another job.
Then i want to hire a graphics designer with an excellent business background and preferably with skills in information architecture. I want this person to sit with me and discuss how to represent our virtual enterprise reporting model in the most effective way for me and our shareholders. It will need to be designed so that i can provide staff with access to areas of the graphical model that I want them to be able to see.
Then i want to hire a bunch of smart programmers to write and integrate software for me to be able to see this enlightening new world on my computer. I want to purchase and install the biggest flat screen computer monitor in the world, clear my office of everything apart from a remote controlled PC, a small round desk, and a couple of chairs in the corner.
Once this is all up and running maybe i'll consider taking the job!!!
