Enjoy the bull market while it lasts, but don't let several terrific years deflect you from a long-term strategy. In short, I suggest remembering: The market does advance, but in cycles that go down as well as up. Plan your asset allocations for...

I found an interesting article in CPMA which highlights on the resolutions IT portfolio vendors will adopt, Found it quite interesting , hence sharing it with all. Stop saying things like 'Manage your corporate portfolio like a portfolio of stocks' This oversimplified comment is dangerous in addition to being meaningless. Dangerous because the corporate portfolio is made up of investments aka projects whose valuation, risk-reward profile, diversification benefits and other characteristics are much less known. While stocks and mutual funds have a great deal of historical data, 'corporate projects' don't have this. That said, even with the data that exists for stocks and funds, personal p...

Traditionally organization that doesn’t maintain portfolio of business appropriately faces natural life cycle of corporate life i.e. start-up, growing, mature decline phase however if corporate would like to grow consistently throughout their life cycle then they have to chose update portfolio of business strategy continuously appropriately. It is easy to make business strategy for a foreseeable future based on reasonable assumption about development in markets, technologies, regulation predictable economic situation however after the latest financial crisis recession, future is very unpredictable uncertain, so classic business strategy approach doesn’t works in an uncertain environment.

Most IT project evaluations are like the tail wagging the dog. They begin with IT strategy, rather than the goals of the business. In fact, IT strategy should be the third link in a chain that begins with business strategy, which in turn governs the product or service strategy, which then drives IT strategy. Lets understand this with a mid size CRM company Business strategy: Increase the customer base by 20 percent in the next year by providing increased functionality such as business operations analytics and executive dashboards. Product strategy: Develop an alliance with a business intelligence (BI) software company to add analytical capabilities to the CRM software. IT strategy: Create a new software platform that allows for easy integration with the BI software company and others. IT projects: Develop a Web services–based platform that offers universal data exchange and messaging between the CRM software and the BI software. While this hierarchy reveals whether IT projects...

Hi Friends, I am sharing with the reviews of IBM on work culture, growth prospects salary, done by their employees. Please share your views. A Project Manager wrote: What I like about IBM: "IBM offers a very flexible working environment. In most cases, no one will ask you what time you come or go from office. Neither the logs of the swipe card will be analyzed to take some action against you in normal circumstances. In special circumstances, the company can even allow you to work from home. No blocking of internet or phones . All in all, you are "not" working in a jail. It has a wealth of knowledge..... " What I don't like about IBM: "Sometimes you feel that there are too many processes to follow. The company is so huge that it is a challenge to make people aware of existing processes. I have often seen it happening that sometimes small groups within IBM try to develop their own processes, often unaware that such a best practice already exists and can be leveraged. Ofcourses, Lou...

Saying no is perhaps the most important productivity tool that exists. Saying no is an art. It is also perhaps the most difficult thing to do for most people. I used to dread the occasions where I knew I will have to say no and I used to prepare for such situations for days. Now, I almost look forward to saying no to people and I actually enjoy the process! Find out how the change happened. 1. You are doing everyone a favour by saying no. Whenever you are saying NO to someone, remember that it is for their benefit! By saying no, you are • Giving the person an opportunity to look for someone who can do the job better. • Avoiding negative feelings about the person. 2. Visualize the alternative (to saying no) in vivid detail. • You will feel bad and will curse yourself for accepting the task. • You will do a bad job. • You will hate the person for putting this on to you. • The person will hate you for doing a bad job. • You should not have said yes, if you were not going to do a good...

Hello friends, Sharing you with you an interesting blog posted on TalentEquity.in about how to be cheerful at workplace. Kindly share your views on this. "This is the beginning of a new year and is a right time to take stock of your work life. We take many resolutions to make our personal and professional life better and more disciplined. Well, I am not going to discuss on resolutions and their follow ups. However one thing which is very important at work is to be cheerful and happy. This not only set positive vibration around you but also establishes you as being someone who is in control, smooth, relaxed, confident and mature. So be cheerful all the time. What if a project has failed, boss has given not-so-good feedback. What if you have not got on-site opportunity this year. Salary increment and promotion is still pending. It’s still no reason to loose your smile. Whatever your situation is things will get better for sure. Actually maintaining a cheerful and happy outlook is...
