HBR Blog Network Idea Entrepreneur: The New 21st Century Career

-
Εικόνα
http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2013/05/idea_entrepreneur_the_new_21st.html There is a new player emerging on the cultural and business scene today: the idea entrepreneur. Perhaps you are one yourself — or would like to be. The idea entrepreneur is an individual, usually a content expert and often a maverick, whose main goal is to influence how other people think and behave in relation to their cherished topic. These people don't seek power over others and they're not motivated by the prospect of achieving great wealth. Their goal is to make a difference, to change the world in some way. Idea entrepreneurs are popping up everywhere. They're people like Sheryl Sandberg (Facebook COO and author of Lean In ), who is advocating a big new idea from within an organization. And like Atul Gawande (the checklist doctor), who is working to transform a professional discipline. Or like Blake Mycoskie (founder of TOMS shoes), who has created an unconventional business model. ...

http://scientopia.org/blogs/scicurious/2010/08/23/back-to-basics-1-neurotransmission/ from Back to Basics 1: Neurotransmission! Aug 23 2010 Published by  scicurious  under  Basic Science Posts ,  Neuroscience , Uncategorized First in our back to basics series, a very important topic indeed. Neurotransmission is at the basis of everything you read about MRI, neural circuitry, how areas of the brain communicate...basically a LOT of neuroscience requires that you know something about neurotransmission. I suppose I thought for a while that if I was talking about dopamine and serotonin and GABA and things enough, people would just kind of "get" neurotransmission. And most people do. But it's still a good thing to cover, partially because it's kind of mind boggling to think about (well, Sci finds it mind-boggling), and partially because it helps you understand why changes in receptors, changes in transporters, or changes in release will have different effects.

Understanding the Pareto Principle (The 80/20 Rule)

Understanding the Pareto Principle (The 80/20 Rule) http://betterexplained.com/articles/understanding-the-pareto-principle-the-8020-rule/ Originally, the Pareto Principle referred to the observation that 80% of Italy’s wealth belonged to only 20% of the population. More generally, the Pareto Principle is the observation (not law) that most things in life are not distributed evenly. It can mean all of the following things: 20% of the input creates 80% of the result 20% of the workers produce 80% of the result 20% of the customers create 80% of the revenue 20% of the bugs cause 80% of the crashes 20% of the features cause 80% of the usage And on and on… But be careful when using this idea! First, there’s a common misconception that the numbers 20 and 80 must add to 100 — they don’t! 20% of the workers could create 10% of the result. Or 50%. Or 80%. Or 99%, or even 100%. Think about it — in a group of 100 workers, 20 could do all the work while the other 80 goof off....
