Be Distinct or Extinct! Distinción o extinción (Tom Peters)

Be Distinct or Extinct!

Optimismo que no falte, pero el fin de año tambien es buen momento para reflexionar. Seas autónomo 2.0, autónomo 1.0, empresa 1.0, etc. Hazte estas preguntas:
  • ¿Eres distinto? Si no eres distinto, problema a la vista. Be distinct or extinct. Si siempre haces las mismas cosas, hablas con la misma gente, no actualizas tu conocimientos (por cierto, para cuando ese Blog que impacte a tus competidores?)…. el futuro se presenta bastante oscuro. China e India producen 4 veces más ingenieros que Europa
  • ¿Cerrará tu empresa en breve? Alejandro Vesga (@alejandrovesga) comenta que  Más del 40% de las empresas creadas en España cierran antes del cuarto año.
  • ¿Cuanto durará tu empresa? La esperanza de vida de las empresas españolas es de 10,3 años Fuente: Blog de Sage
  • ¿Estás innovando? Visualiza este video y sé sincero ¿vas a innovar en 2011? ¿Cuando vas a empezar? ¿El 3 de enero?

Manifiesto autónomo 2.0. Norma 5: El autónomo 2.0 tiene blog

Seth Godin

“Doesn’t matter if anyone reads it.. What matters is the metacognition of thinking about what you are going to say. How do you force yourself to describe in three paragraphs why you did something. You are doing it for yourself to become part of the conversation even if it’s very small.

Tom Peters

No single thing in the last 15 years professionally has been more important in my life than blogging. It has changed my life.  It has changed my perspective.  It has changed my intellectual outlook.  It has changed my emotional outlook. Best damn marketing tool by an order of magnitude.

Both

And it’s free.

Manifiesto autónomo 2.0. Norma 1: La unidad fundamental de la nueva economía no es la empresa, si no el individuo

La unidad fundamental de la nueva economía no es la empresa, si no el individuo. Las tareas no las asigna y controla una cadena estable de dirección, sino que las llevan a cabo de manera autónoma contratistas independientes. Estos profesionales electrónicamente conectados se agrupan en redes fluidas y temporales para producir y vender bienes y servicios. Cuando finaliza el trabajo, la red se desmantela y sus miembros vuelven a ser agentes independientes que circulan por la economía en busca del siguiente encargo.

Thomas Malone y Robert Laubacher.

Tom Peters. Posiblemente uno de los iniciadores del fenómeno de la Marca Personal.

Tom Peters. Posiblemente uno de los iniciadores del fenómeno de la Marca Personal. Es ampliamente conocido como gurú y tremendamente cotizado. Posiblemente la forma en que expone sus ideas es más importante que el fondo. En su página hay muchísima información, incluyendo ficheros con las presentaciones que va realizando en todo el mundo. Aunque en algunos momentos es demasiado histriónico y parece que siempre está enfadado por todo, os lo recomiendo. Su artículo “The brand called you” publicado en Fast Company en 1997 supuso el nacimiento oficial de este fenómeno. Asimismo, su libro “50 Claves para hacer de usted una marca” es la bíblia de la marca personal. Echadle un vistazo, os llamará la atención. www.tompeters.com

El currículum en papel ha muerto ! Súbelo a Slideshare y olvídate del papel

El papel ha muerto!. Llevo toda la vida oyendo la misma frasecita. Y creo que ha muerto el 1 de Enero de 2010.

Hay hechos que así lo indican:

  • Ley Ley 11/2007, (que obliga a las administraciones a permitir la tramitación electrónica de todos sus procedimientos a partir del 1-1-2010)
  • Factura electrónica (obligatoria si facturamos a la Administración) nos ahorremos imprimir millones de papeles y lo peor, ir a un organismo a presentarlo.
  • Dni electrónico.  Permite:
    • Acreditar electrónicamente y de forma indubitada la identidad de la persona
    • Firmar digitalmente documentos electrónicos, otorgándoles una validez jurídica equivalente a la que les proporciona la firma manuscrita
ANEXO:

What Matters Now (PDF 3.09MB). Un libro electrónico gratuito organizado por Seth Godin en el que 80 personas del mundo internet, marketing, nuevos medios, etc, plasman en breves textos de una página su visión del año próximo.

Fantástico e-book del Maestro Seth Godin.
