A boss should ask employees how they can improve at their job When she works with employees itching to take the next step in their careers, Sarah Wagener likes to ask a simple question: "Do you believe you've mastered your current role?" Typically, the answer is no. But Wagener — the chief people officer at DoorDash, a former vice president of human resources at Pandora, and a former recruiting leader at Facebook — often hears a curious follow-up comment: "I haven't really ever had a conversation this openly about what I'm not that great at or where I'm not as strong." Wagener gets why this happens. "As human beings, we tend to like to focus on the stuff that we do really well," she said. "I know that I love nothing more than to be in my sweet spot." That is to say, most of us aren't inclined to reveal to the person who determines our employment status all the ways we're falling short. Google has been known to use some version of this strategy. "I often give millennials on my team something that's a real stretch," Poses, a millennial himself, wrote.
Faire ses huiles essentielles et ses hydrolats, comment faire soi-même des H.E. Faire ses huiles essentielles et ses hydrolats Pensez à lire (ou relire) les consignes de prudence pour la manipulation des huiles essentielles qui sont des produits merveilleux mais extrêmement puissants. Les différents procédés pour fabriquer des huiles essentielles Une H.E. est une substance liquide d'apparence huileuse, d'une couleur variable selon la plante mise en oeuvre, extrêmement puissante, volatile et odoriférante sécrétée par une plante aromatique que ce soit au niveau de ses parties aériennes (fleurs, feuilles, semences, tiges ou rameaux) ou de ses organes souterrains (racines ou rhizome). Elle s'obtient généralement par distillation à la vapeur d'eau dans un alambic, de végétaux aromatiques (plante entière) ou d'une partie de la plante seulement (les feuilles, l'écorce par ex.) pour en extraire la quintessence de la plante, ce concentré de principes actifs. Plusieurs techniques permettent d'extraire les huiles essentielles de végétaux : La distillation La récolte des plantes
Criticism and Two Way Streets A post by Jason Fried titled “Give it 5 minutes” reminded me of a great technique I learned about from Bill Buxton. Bill is a Principal Researcher in Microsoft where his main role focuses on designing a company that permits great design to happen. As many have learned to their peril, it’s not simply a case of just dumping talent in a room full of Ikea furniture. In large companies you have to design the process that creates design. However having great designers each producing great solutions to a shared problem can cause conflict, if not managed correctly… Exploring the Solution Space Like Apple, Microsoft encourages their designers to create many different solutions to any given design problem. When Does Your Solution Suck? Every solution is great in some circumstances and terrible in others. The person who demonstrates most knowledge about the shortcomings of their own solution and the benefits of all the alternatives is the best best equipped to make the call.
Tim Denning on LinkedIn: "The client wanted an ROI from digital marketing in one month. I politely told them "You're missing the point." They wanted leads and they wanted them now. The problem is their potential customers don't care. "What value hav Por qué es tan importante cómo miras a tu hijo Álex Rovira. Yo creo que son múltiples. La verdad es que es una pregunta que requeriría una reflexión en profundidad. Como decía antes, creo que hay un factor fundamental, que es el contagio, el entusiasmo. Nouveau portrait de la Voie lactée : que sait-on de notre univers proche ? En septembre, en plein cœur de la rentrée littéraire, a été publié un livre passé inaperçu et pourtant essentiel. Il s’agit du premier tome de l’encyclopédie galactique du satellite GAIA. GAIA, c’est un télescope, dont l’objectif est de nous livrer une cartographie jusqu’à présent inégalée de notre voisinage galactique propre. Recenser plus d’un milliard d’étoiles et apprendre à connaître enfin cette grande inconnue que l’on appelle la Voie Lactée. Voie Lactée : que sait-on de notre univers proche ? Et pour parler de ce voisinage galactique si proche et pourtant si lointain et si mal connu, nous avons le plaisir d’accueillir autour de la table de La Méthode scientifique Françoise Combes, astrophysicienne, professeure au collège de France, éminente spécialiste des galaxies et de leur évolution. Pour commencer, est-il encore vrai, en 2016, que la Voie Lactée est encore une terra incognita en très grande partie ? Les références musicales : Générique de fin : "Bergschrund" par DJ Shadow
Screw the Power Users I designed HomeSite and TopStyle for power users. Only power users would want to edit HTML & CSS by hand, so I made sure to cater to them. Those products were filled with features and tool buttons, and their settings dialogs contained dozens of geeky options. Customers liked them that way. I liked them that way, too. But then I made FeedDemon. At first I built FeedDemon as though my customers were geeks like me, since that was what I was used to. So with each new version I tried to simplify the user interface, and dropped features & options that complicated the product. I’d come out with new versions that I thought dramatically improved the product, only to find my forums filled with complaints from power users who wanted the return of some obscure option, or were upset that I wasn't adding the geeky features they wanted. Sales went up, but positive feedback went down. Sure, if you're building a product for power users, make sure to cater to them.

education.francetv Le Voyage dans la lune Poétique, fantastique, Le Voyage dans la lune, réalisé en 1902, est devenu le film emblématique de Georges Méliès. Ce long métrage pour l’époque (environ 14 minutes), dont l’idée est venue à Méliès du roman de Jules Verne De la terre à la lune, raconte l’expédition lunaire de six astronomes. Ils embarquent à bord d’un obus, propulsé par un canon géant. Arrivés sur la lune, ils assistent à un « lever de terre », rencontrent la population autochtone, les Sélénites, qui les font prisonnier. Les prouesses techniques et trucages, avec un tournage en tableaux successifs filmés en plan fixe (30 scènes), permettent un récit fluide et compréhensible sans besoin d’intertitres pour ce film muet, simplement accompagné de musique lors de sa projection. L’image la plus célèbre du film, qui en fit l’affiche et est devenue l’icône du génie artistique de Méliès, est celle de l’obus planté dans un œil de la lune : l’alunissage « en plein dans l’œil ».
What Drives Consumer Adoption Of New Technologies? I'm participating in a panel discussion this morning during the offsite of a major media company. They sent me a list of questions in preparation of the event. One of the questions was the title of this post; "What drives consumer adoption of new technologies?". It's an interesting question and one I've never tried to answer directly in writing. Let's take ten of the most popular new consumer technology products in recent years (with a couple of our portfolio companies in the mix): iPhone, Facebook, Wii, Hulu, FlipCam, Rock Band, Mafia Wars, Blogger, Pandora, and Twitter and let's try to describe in one sentence or less why they broke out (feel free to debate the reasons they broke out in the comments): In most of these cases, the breakthrough product or service delivered a new experience to consumers that they had never had before. So it seems to me that consumers are driven to new experiences that are simple and useful and/or entertaining.
Five Practices to Build Emotionally Intelligent Leaders Emotional intelligence, or EQ, the capability of individuals to identify and manage their own emotions as well as recognize those of others, has been identified as a strong indicator and predictor of effective leadership. It has been studied and researched resulting in evidence that strongly suggests organizations with emotionally intelligent leaders produce a higher return on investment and profitability. EQ requires effective communication between the rational and emotive centers of our brain — it represents the path between feeling and reason. As written about by Daniel Goleman in his book, “Primal Leadership, Learning to Lead with Emotional Intelligence,” the four skills that make up emotional intelligence include: self-awareness and self-management (personal competence) and social awareness and relationship management (social competence). 2) Create a culture of compassion: Employees need to feel valued, appreciated and acknowledged for their contributions.
