As the singer Jimmy Buffett said: "Some things in life are a mystery to me, while other things are far too obvious. That sentence pretty much sums up what I learned from the study of organizations and my efforts to help managers implement best evidence. Some things are really difficult or impossible to solve. Take leadership. There are valuable lessons that make good leaders, but it is difficult to discover. So much crap and so many beliefs circulate through the management literature, including the leaderships of the most effective, there will always be an author to defend the merits of a particular leadership style. When Jeffrey Pfeffer and myself were in the midst of writing Facts and hogwash in management, has tapped Jeffrey "The secret of leadership" ("Secrets of Leadership") on Amazon. The first book Research to appear was "The Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun" ("The secrets of leadership of Attila the Hun"). The second was "The Leadership Secrets of Santa Claus." When I started my research, the title had been replaced by "The Leadership Secrets of Colin Powell."
At the same time, I developed the conviction follows: managers and their staff progressed much more if, instead of trying to solve complex issues such as "what a great leader? "They concentrated their efforts on things both true and easy to implement. To quote Jeffrey Pfeffer, the main "secret" of the top leaders is to be "masters of the obvious."
Take my favorite example: the meetings where people are standing and where they are seated. A study by the University of Missouri compared groups whose members were standing for short meetings (10 to 20 minutes) to groups whose members were sitting. Groups whose members were standing put 34% less time to make a decision as good as that of groups whose members were sitting. Do the math: How many people work in your organization? How many meetings of 10 to 20 minutes per year do you organize? Certainly in some situations it is better to sit, especially to discuss sensitive issues. But in most cases, the vertical position is preferred. Take the energy giant Chevron-Texaco, a company of 50,000 employees accused of making a profit out of customers. If every employee meeting replaced a sitting of 20 minutes per year by a standing meeting, each meeting would last about 7 minutes less and would be equally effective. This would save 6,000 hours worked. You could remove some chairs Meeting and replace them with a bar. You would save much time and money.
Or take the example of medicine. Cancer and heart disease are difficult to treat and research devotes billions of dollars - as they should. But some problems can be solved with a little soap, water and elbow grease. Nearly 100,000 Americans die from nosocomial infections. One of the most effective ways to lower this figure is to require doctors to wash their hands after touching a patient, yet recent studies show that less than 50% of doctors wash their hands as often as necessary. Some forget. Others are overwhelmed. And still others do not believe in proven facts that exist in this area. I know a hospital in Florida attempting to fight against this problem by displaying symbols and distributing patient badges that say "Dare to Ask" - dare ask the doctor if they have washed their hands before examining you. The director of the hospital told me that doctors hate these cards because they do not like being told what to do. But they fail less often to wash your hands!
While it is useful trying to solve difficult problems, such as "What a leader effective? Or "How to manage creative work? . But I am astounded that so many leaders and organizations are chasing the impossible and prefer to ignore the obvious and simple things whose effects can be considerable.

When I Dvr A Show Does It Count
The book begins to arrive in bookstores. The time has come to give some information.
Facts and hogwash in the management appeared in the United States under the title Hard Facts, Dangerous Half-Truths and Total Nonsense In 2006. Jeff Pfeffer and Bob Sutton have therefore written before the drafting of to Zero-sale-con by Sutton.
The back cover:
what makes people in the workplace and elsewhere, that financial incentives ...
• A successful business relies primarily on its strategy ...
• A company must know how to master change ...
• What it takes for a business is a great leader ...So many compelling examples of statements that you've probably already heard ... and for good reason, since they often inspire management and decision making in companies. And if they were false or only partially true? For example, if the financial incentives and had consequences that affect performance? And whether to focus on strategy rather than on operational efficiency, was put next to the plate? And if the change was sometimes worse than no change? And if the "great leaders" played only a minor role in the performance of their business?
Questions - among others - met by this iconoclastic book based on a simple observation: management relies most often not on the analysis of facts, but on beliefs inspired by hope, anguish, or ideology. The decisions of managers based on very incomplete information, often biased and poorly analyzed. In many cases, they are not based on independent thinking but the thoughtless imitation of what competitors are doing.
But another management is possible ... The authors thus propose the development of "management based the evidence ". Rather than bludgeon truths supposedly insurmountable, they invite the managers to replace the pernicious half-truths and misconceptions by the evidence of the facts and engaging method to achieve this.
A stimulating reading to end misconceptions about the management!
The authors maintain a website on "evidence based management ", or "evidence-based management", while English course. The blog Robert Sutton (all in English) includes many other interesting developments in information and the subject.
This blog will contain information about the book and the press, as well as excerpts of the book, which will be chosen according to the news. Excerpts from the blog of Robert Sutton and Jeff Pfeffer texts will be translated.
This blog is open. Comments are welcome (and the number of comments received on the ticket Annie Kahn World yesterday shows that the subject of interest ...). As Hervé Laroche wrote in his introduction:
Reading Facts and hogwash, the reader will find several books in one. The first book (actually the second part!) Proposes a " hit parade "of misconceptions - pernicious half-truths - that prevail today in the managerial world and who do so much damage. These ideas are discussed in the light of accumulated knowledge management research. This leads the authors to acknowledge their some substance, but also to produce a critical thrust. In short, to separate the wheat from the chaff - which is often dominant. [...] Six
half-truths, it is without doubt, the authors acknowledge, a very limited exploration designs uncertain or downright stupid that proliferate in the managerial world. Their findings are also invitations to continue the exercise. Readers to add their favorite crap. The French reader, thinker willing, may sometimes noted significant differences between the very American context in which the authors are and that in which it operates. He does not forget, after welcoming does not suffer the foolishness of the Atlantic, track our rubbish from the land, half truths our homegrown! Most importantly, beyond the reporting of errors of others, he looks without his indulgence own illusions.
So feel free to write us (marie-pierre.vaslet @ vuibert.fr) to send us your "Favorite crap" or your thoughts on the subject.

Read: ticket Annie Kahn Facts and crap in the world today, in the "Ecofrictions.
WORLDWIDE a business today is facing a series of challenges. In the current environment characterized by fierce competition and rapidly changing markets and technologies, the success of a company depends primarily on the quality of its strategic choices. Therefore, the strategy must be to the attention of leaders. They must ensure that the company is constantly calling into question by setting bold change initiatives continuously change management practices. They should be alert to new tools and new approaches under penalty to be outdone by the competition. They must also demonstrate leadership skills in order to impose these projects and to conduct their business with a firm hand. This continuous adaptation of strategy and management guaranteed by strong leadership must finally give priority to the human dimension of the business. Employees constitute the main assets of a company, it is imperative to ensure the collaboration of the best - and only the best. Of them must require them to whoop their work and encourage them with significant financial rewards and clearly discriminatory. These are now basic rules of success.
Facts and hogwash. You know why

The orthonormal generated by division by zero zero R by itself is NON-LIFE always relative to space LIFE or calculation. They serve only to position the mathematical objects used in LIFE.
0R/0R generates a reference to one dimension.
0R/0R/0R generates a reference to two dimensions.
0R/0R/0R/0R generates a reference to THREE dimensions.
0R/0R/0R/..../0R (n divisions by zero R) generates an n-dimensional mark.

In R, the set of real numbers, we will try to divide it by any real zero of R.
But first, what is a division? Simply a series of subtractions. For example, if we divide 12 by 3: 12 / 3 = 4, we only subtract four times three to twelve get zero.
What happens if we divide 12 by 0. Well, it does absolutely nothing happens for the simple reason that in this sense of the subtraction, only this one, zero is neutral. Example: 12-0-0-0-0-0-0 ...... = 12!! So mathematics
surface is perfectly fair when they say that division by zero is not feasible. Nothing to say, it is easily provable and demonstrable mathematical life or surface.
By cons, if we take as a definition "How many times can I escape?" then we get a stunning result: Rs. Indeed, whatever x belonging to R, I can subtract x times 0 and y but without finishing the division, without having begun even as there is not at all divided. Thus we see that R is the solution to the question: "How many times can I subtract?" But NO LIFE, so in memory.
In R:
y / 0 = NO LIFE R

The of proof is very simple in R, all based on an actual visualization of the result geometrically. These figures above show why division by zero LIFE has no solution and why INFINITY IS NOT AND CAN NOT BE THE SOLUTION. This demonstration shows why the concept of limits leads and misled so many mathematicians. Yet this demonstration is understandable for a student level of a second. Was it just a little imagination?
-----------------------------
y = a / x for x = 0
In an orthogonal classic, I'll draw a line parallel to the Delta x-axis and passing on the y-axis by a point a.
I'm building a straight delta 'which I use to "see" the result of my divisions on the right delta. Delta is determined by x and y '(two points)
Then I project the result y' orthogonally on the x-axis
y 'is the intersection of the delta and delta' and I then projects the result to x.
if x belongs to [1, infinity [there is a equipotence with y ' belongs to] 0,1]
if x belongs to] 0,1] there is a equipotence with y 'belongs to [1, infinity [
But for x = 0
It can not be displayed results because delta and delta 'are parallel!!
But if you look closely: Delta 'and the x-axis are combined, then the projection gives R in full, in full, but this IS NOT A SOLUTION IN LIFE! What has misled fanatics limits is that the R c of the continuum from Cantor and therefore we are in the presence of a transfinite number.

Cantor them is much higher! That's my point of view.
Zermelo Fraenkel did not understand the zero, but set theory is good for many uses.
Mathematics are tools made to serve. They should not pretend to absolute.
IT IS USED SO THERE IS A LEARNING MATHEMATICS IN NO LIFE IF YOU DO NOT NEED.
What can they serve? In computer already, they are full of applications. For coding, for astrophysics, for the "mystical", they are great.

Lemma 8 (Together and its non-life): it is possible to be in one set and therefore a single set may be alive.
Example: A, B two sets as B = Non-life of A.
taken separately, you have two identical sets BUT NOT CONFUSED.
You could only be either A or in B but not both at once.

Lemma 7: The division of a number of life belonging to a set alive by a number in a set of non-life non-life has the effect of restitution of the entire life together No Life.
This is a key point to explain and help you "visualize" the division by zero.
Example:
life is a life of belonging to A, is not life-owned non-life-b of B such that A = Non-Life B.
life of a / b = non-life B
B is returned in full and becomes all alive.
A passes in Non-Life.

Lemma 5: The type operations addition or multiplication performed on a set of non-life with numbers in life have not always result in an ordered list of numbers or not Not used in life.
Ex: (Non-life of a * (b + Non-life Life Non c)) * Non-life of d = enum (not a life, not life b, c non-life, not life d)
There is a simple reason for that: transactions are not possible in non-life!

They are more convenient to write formulas and give greater clarity and avoid confusion Life and Non Life or memory.
Compare Life Not a concept in mind, a pure informative is a good approximation to "see" the theory.
Generates symbol or Renders is much better than the equal symbol (=) or equivalent because it gives this impression of transformation. It can pass information to life.

Lemma 3: In a multiplication of several elements together, it is sufficient that one of them is in life not for the result to be non-life.
Ex: a * b * c * d * e = non-life non-life (a * b * c * d * e)
Lemma 4:
non-life (a * b * c) = non-life (a + b + c) = a + non-life non-life Non-life of b + c
OPERATIONS IN NON-LIFE IS NOT ACTIVE! ITEMS ARE DIFFERENT!
is to stay consistent and coherent: Operations can be performed on all property and life, one where we are.

Lemma 1: The Non-Life of a number is a neutral element in the Life of a number by addition.
Ex: No life of a + b = Life Life
b
Lemme2: The Life of a No number is absorbent on the Life of a number by multiplication.
Ex: Non-Life Life of a * b = No Life (a * b)
Lakme Cosmetics Prices India
Non Life of a * b Non-Life = No life (a * b)
Non-Life Life of a * b = No Life (a * b)
Life and thus b = b ????? No Life
We would be in contradiction?
Not at all and that's where it gets complicated mentalise, to really understand. Understand the concept of IS or IS NOT.
B LIFE IS WELL NOT EQUAL LIFE B!
THESE ARE TWO NUMBERS PERFECTLY IDENTICAL BUT ONE IS IN ALL IN LIFE AND IN ALL THE OTHER IN NO LIFE. THE CONCEPT IS TO BE OR NOT IN A PACKAGE THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE. AND IT'S JUST THE CONCEPT OF SUMMER WHO IS THAT YOU ARE IN A LIFE TOGETHER OR NOT, AND THUS THE "COPY" IN LIFE NO.
Take your time. Once you understand these concepts, it will become easier. Forget what you think you know and all references to mathematics "surface". Make an effort of abstraction. Cool, relaxing ....

Life of a Non-Life * b = b * Non-Life Life of a
Commutativity generalized to all sets (including if * is not commutative in life? But probably to verify )
Life of a * b = No Life Non-Life (a * b)
Saccharin Side Effects
Non Life of a + b Non-Life = No Life + b Non-Life has.
commutativity is general for all sets (even on life in addition is not commutative? Check).
Also:
Non Life of a + b Non-Life = No Life (a + b) Non-Life
a + (b + Non-Life Non-Life c) = Non-Life ( a + b + c) --------------------------
Life of a + b = Non-Life Life of a + No Life = No life b b + Life a = LIFE has
Non Life of x is by adding a neutral element in Life
