Une science de l’intelligence collective ?
L’intelligence collective peut-elle constituer un projet scientifique et si oui lequel. C’est l’entreprise qui occupe Pierre Lévy depuis plusieurs années. Son dernier article mérite donc un examen particulier au-delà des clichés dont il est souvent victime. Il est vrai que certains ouvrages présentaient des prospectives discutables, notamment le world philosophy qui représentait surtout à mon goût une vision trop positive de l’avenir, oubliant justement les éléments malveillants (ce que remarquait fort justement Yann Leroux sur twitter). Voici donc mes quelques réflexions sur ce texte dont le but n’est pas d’en proposer un résumé mais plutôt une tentative de mise en avant de certains points qui m’ont paru importants. L’article pourra être lu de différentes manières. L’entreprise de Pierre Lévy est ambitieuse (trop ?) La sortie des fausses idées sur l’intelligence collective : Pour ma part, j’ai souvent été prudent avec l’intelligence collective du fait de son côté un peu idéaliste.

Aide naturelle contre l'addiction à l'alcool
11 mars 2013 par Jonathan Benson (NaturalNews) Il y a de nombreux facteurs individuels qui peuvent amener une personne à faire une consommation excessive d'alcool, comme des expériences de vie, le statut social et l'histoire familiale. Mais un domaine qu'on n'aborde que très rarement concernant l'abus d'alcool est celui de la malnutrition, et particulièrement le manque de nutriments nécessaires à maintenir une bonne santé physique, mentale et émotionnelle. Bien qu'il n'y ait pas de régime panacée pour guérir de l'abus d'alcool, il existe plusieurs approches naturelles qui peuvent aider à une réelle récupération et guérison qui dureront. 1. C'est pourquoi de nombreux médecins qui font une approche plus naturopathique et holistique de la santé préfèrent l'Analyse Transactionnelle (AT), un système d'analyse du comportement qui évite de transformer une addiction en maladie. 2. 3. 4. 5 .L-glutamine. 6.

Participatory organization
A participatory organization is an organization which is built based on people participation rather than their contract obligations. Most current organizations are contract-based. Contracts define a functional structure that holds such an organization together by imposing mutual obligations on people. For example, an employee of a typical organization is obliged to perform a certain function in exchange for some previously agreed compensation. Once established the contract relationship is quite rigid and inflexible. Participatory organization is an alternative to the contract model. A nice property of evolutionary participatory model is its ability to scale well with the number of participants. The concept of participatory organization was popularized recently by Tim O'Reilly under the name "the Architecture of Participation." Examples[edit] References[edit] Kosorukoff, A. & Goldberg, D.

7 Distraction-Fighting Strategies
A blank screen or sheet of paper glares at you, insisting you produce something now. Meanwhile, a lot of other voices are calling out, "Pay attention to me!" Suspect a lack of focus if your gaze wanders to the bookshelves over your desk, or your mind keeps drifting off to future plans, or you leap to answer the phone on its first ring, thinking, "Great! A reprieve!" How can you best access your creativity and get the words flowing? Whether or not it comes naturally to you, focus is a matter of deciding to pay attention, and then strengthening your focusing ability by using it. 1. To try: Plan a series of stories or articles that conform to a theme, or create structure by writing a piece that is based around numbers or bulleted items. 2. To try: Choose to work in a form that's new to you, whether a poem that rhymes, an op-ed piece that must be limited to 600 words, or a short story written in present tense or with no passive verbs. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Virtual Teams
What is a team? One of the more accepted definitions comes from Kazenbach and Smith in Wisdom of Teams. A team is a small number of people with complementary skills who are committed to a common purpose, performance goals, and approach for which they hold themselves mutually accountable. Generally, teams have from two to twenty-five people. More than that, they tend to break into subteams. What is a virtual team?
