not justified - Act!

I attached a metaphor for Camilo Cruz comment I find interesting.

tells the story of a teacher who goes with his disciples on a road and found a family of eight people living in extreme poverty. The only possession they have is a cow. This cow gives her milk and get the only meal of the day. You can differ from the neighbors because they have "The Cow" es decir eso que los mantiene en un nivel mental que dice: tengo algo, es poquito, me da de comer, pero no tengo nada más.
El maestro en la noche antes de seguir su camino, tomó una daga , mató a la vaca y se fue con su discípulo, quien se quedó angustiado preguntándose de qué iban a vivir esas personas.
Pasó un año y el maestro y el discípulo volvieron nuevamente por el rancho y se encontraron con una casa grande, acomodada, con jardines, pintada y agradable. Vieron al dueño y le preguntaron qué había pasado. El señor contó que: cuando les mataron a la vaca y no encontraron qué mas comer tuvieron que pedir prestadas unas semillas que sembraron en el jardín. De allí managed to eat some months later. But as they overran the neighboring sold it. And as they had some money now, decided to buy more seed and plant more land. When the market were harvested and sold. And started a virtuous cycle of work, money, prosperity and changing paradigms.

believe that the cow represents the constraints that we put human beings in our life and work nuestor and make us poor. Are the excuses, the justifications for avoiding recurrent our responsibilities as individuals and as employees of organizations.

Thoughts "cows" that keep them tied to mediocrity, are negative perceptions repeat all this become reality (internal Pygmalion Effect).

expectations and estimates of self or group in an individual on how they behave otherwise, determine precisely the behavior of the subject.

believe that this is if there are thoughts cow, the "cows" are expressions of the fears and self limiting we wear every day to do things. So the most effective way to counteract the cow is the "ACTION." (For that reason let its behavior pattern may be referenced to the expectations of others? And their fears?)

Doing things without waiting for the result, kill these intrinsic constraints. Thinking about any limitations, excuses and justifications they give for avoiding doing things that involve risks and change their state of comfort or "comfort", it is best to aa Reflections and identify each one tied what is and what or what things are kept in mediocrity. - How comfortable we are in dangerous areas?

For my part I will start making a list of cows that I have and kill them slowly.

Hippocratic Oath for MBAs and professionals

I think having the Hippocratic Oath provides interesting elements to guide the way many professionals can act. Some time ago on the blog a fellow MBA (http://juangabrielcendales.com) discussed how sometimes the good guys gone bad. Educated and trained in the best business schools in the world, managers of large corporations and engineers with expertise, that their choices (sometimes successful and sometimes not) can affect things like the global economy, savings and pensions of thousands of people, the stability of enterprises and whole society.

The fact make a decision and it was right or wrong, is not being tried. What is to analyze carefully, is that the desicion is conditioned by a propósito diferente a algo correcto. (Y acá nos metemos en el oscuro mundo de que es lo correcto)

Para los que trabajamos en el "humilde oficio" de la consultoría, (Y en especial de la seguridad de la información). Al final atendemos "pacientes enfermos" que son las empresas; algunos pacientes desearían escuchar otras cosas sobre como van sus negocios, como los están manejando, ignorar vulnerabilidades y riesgos, etc. Pero.. entonces donde queda nuestro compromiso con el cliente y por el cual nos contratan? porque existen tantos que violan el sigilo profesional?

Considero que siempre volvemos al mismo punto, la apreciación de los valores que hacen los profesionales hoy en day. Sometimes we forget that there is always something beyond what is possible and what is not possible, of legal and illegal, good and evil, values, and what the end sums it up as a tool for decision making - "Putting yourself in the shoes of another." Think

that has happened when someone with training, knowledge, business contacts, emotional intelligence, and other skills are used for a purpose not Transcendental. (Major responsibilities with third parties?). I think good stop a minute to think what the purpose of all of us here and we are studying. I believe we can all change a little our environment, especially if we realize that we must first change ourselves. Ahi

I leave the text of the Pledge to reflect.

I swear by Apollo Physician and Asclepius and Hygeia and Panacea and by all the gods and goddesses, making them judges, that my oath will be fulfilled as far as having power and discernment. To the one who taught me this art, she considers the same as my parents, he will participate in my upkeep and if you want part of my estate. Look upon his children as my brothers, teaching the art without charging anything, if they want to learn.
will instruct by precept, by speech and in all other ways, my children, the children of that taught me me and the disciples bound by oath and stipulation, according to medical law, and not to others.
will carry out the scheme, which according to my power and insight will benefit the sick and they depart from prejudice and terror. No one will give a deadly drug even though I requested, nor give advice to this end. Similarly, do not give any woman an abortifacient pessaries. Shall spend my life and my art in the innocence and purity.
not cut anyone or even to the calculations, making way for those working in the practice. In any house you enter, go for the benefit of the sick, refraining from all voluntary error and corruption, and lust with women or free men or slaves.
will keep silent about all that in my profession or outside it, hear or see in the lives of men who should not be public, I will keep so that you can not talk about them.
Now, if I fulfill this oath and do not break it, that the fruits of life and art are mine, which is always honored by all men and that the opposite happens if I'm hogging and perjury.

The role of MBAs in organizations

I think those Dilbert cartoons leave much to think about the role of MBAs in these times crisis and how we manage the business. Rather than studying thousands of cases and know the theory have lived in the real world (Real Sector) gives many more elements to the decision-making. The case studies are simply a tool to accustom the mind to a way of thinking and working. So as to provide evidence to creativity is smoother and has more discretion when solving business problems, all problems are unique and require specific solutions according to the context, people and business same.

The type of proposed solutions should be clear, timely and tailored what the company needs, the theory is useful as a starting point, but do not forget to focus sharply the problem and define a workable action plan, consistent and simple. Usually the best way to build trust is with simple solutions that are useful to companies and not to the romance of the theory.

there I leave to you to think about ... I welcome your comments.

Web 2.0, information society and businesses as living

now live together for an information network, in which the man is a producer and consumer of the same multi-media. (Voice, Data, Video) The speed of adaptation of technology and media have managed to catch up, so as to create a world that runs parallel to ours. However I believe that the "virtual" technology offers us today is a reflection of what the human being as such feel and live.
is interesting to know the type of information that is generated and consumed is filed, understanding patterns of human behavior from the way we are using the media to "connect" with the world.

Now, information society or knowledge?, I think most of the world live in the information age and for whom every day is required on the ability filter, analyze, understand and involve information that can be useful or not for the generation of knowledge.

believe that the information is a means to generate knowledge networks which have the potential to build intellectual capital. This intellectual capital there if you have the opportunity to be recognized and shared with new networks, reason as a source of development knowledge is necessary to release the information management. This freedom implies the possibility that the information is not only available, but there are so many sources of contradictory arguments. The diversity of sources of information and level of interaction knowledge networks are key to the development of intellectual capital.

Under this order of ideas .. what kind of information and knowledge we are developing? (Focus on values? Into something else?)

Sometimes this network of information and knowledge could buy something with brain function, number of neurons and volume of interconnection networks that enable pulse at the end is information, which reflect feelings, thoughts, intellect ...?? If I bring it to a network in an enterprise ... I think it is feasible for a company to behave as such .. with ability to learn, generate knowledge and after all .. be behaving as a vivo.

Audit continuity plan - a way to avoid shocks!

Due to requests from participants on the blog of information security. ( http://groups.google.com/group/Seguridad-de-la-informacion ), I think detail is worth a bit of a methodology for testing and auditing a business continuity plan, the which according to my considerations must be examined from the perspectives of: Strategy, Process, Technology and People.

worth noting that the BS25999 standard gives a very good reference for the audit points to the continuity plan, but there's always more to add at functional.

This is what I consider relevant in an audit process at the level of business continuity plans to see you are saying.

   - Validation of resources needed to implement the processes of continuity
   - Verification of approval process with the Office of Organization and Methods at the firm, as well as determination of possible gaps if there have been updates to the Introduction Infrastructure that supports the processes.
   - Validation strategies and processes of continuity with third party service providers

3. Check the stakeholders of the plan, learning of them on the service level agreement (SLA) continuity plan and the existence of tools for SLA measurement. Assessment


4. knowledge through the written assessment of internalizing BCP processes as well as the roles assigned assessment through interviews as assigned roles on their knowledge of the activities carried out and finally an evaluation through simulation exercises threats. Verification


5. processes of knowledge transfer and training of human resources for the continuity and recovery processes.


6. Verification of the results and adjustments to the simulation process of a threat aimed at a specific area of \u200b\u200bthe IT department and / or functional areas of the company
   - Assessment of compliance with procedures designed

7. Verification process simulation results and a threat to reach on all IT departments and functional areas of the company.
   - Assessment of compliance with procedures designed
   - Evaluation of effectiveness in restoring business operations
Assessment

8. infrastructure required for operation of the contingency operation


9. operability assessment of critical systems from the location of infrastructure


10. contingency coverage and scope of BCP test plan as well as measurement del nivel de efectividad del mismo.
    - Definición del alcance del plan de pruebas
    - Definición de las etapas del plan de pruebas
    - Identificación del personal requerido para ejecutar las pruebas


11. Alcance y resultados de la implementación del proceso de gestión del cambio
