Process, inbound goods, onsite receipt, warranty and repair, contract plan to sourcing, contract development, stock reorder, material master… and the rest. There is no red bow on it, yet the package is scheduled to be launched next March, and, in spite of the mix of interest and…
In an informal conversation, one of my clients told me he was filtering a lot of his thoughts before spelling them out, both at work and at home. That makes sense to him, which I respect. I am only concerned about what his interlocutors miss…
Yes, it is that time of the year AGAIN for World Aids Day. A friend of mine works at UNAIDS and he is super busy this week (and other weeks too, mind you). Sex in the city is happening in Paris, Miss HIV is screened in New York, Cape Town celebrates…

Marketers are investing more and more into social media, and so are companies. Good for them, I am sure it makes sense in their budget. So much that the not-so-honest ones get the best of lambda-consumers with multiple scams. Maybe it is related: paper flyers used to…
Reading an article on another entrepreneur of the year usually births some torn feelings in the business person I am. Judges look for “vision, leadership, achievement and social responsibility”: all this is great and inspiring. I am only curious to know how one can judge something s/he…
