Feedback loops and the workplace
10:01pm Tuesday 21 June 2011 - LatinOcean I have been reading about feedback loops on the @wired magazine. If you’re not familiar with the concept, feedback loops describe the process through which we are prompted with actionable information that makes us sustainably change our behaviour in the foreseeable term. One case of positive behaviour described in wired is that of the radar-powered, [...] | View Full Article Email Article |

What if your soul mate wants to come to your apartment?
11:53am Tuesday 25 January 2011 - LatinOcean It’s encouraging to be approached by an increasing number of recruitment firms and corporate recruitment teams asking for guidance on how to improve/ramp-up their presence on professional and online social networks such as LinkedIn and Facebook. With the risk of stopping them in their tracks, I normally include in this conversation a question or two [...] | View Full Article Email Article |

Myspace trimming and sale
1:34am Wednesday 12 January 2011 - LatinOcean It seemed that the recently reworked Myspace logo was fairly prescient of what was coming for the company in early 2011. The new owners will only have to plug in their own logo in the blank. If I remember well, News bought it for about 600 milllion 6 years ago, whilst at the same time [...] | View Full Article Email Article |

Recruitment and Virtual Goods
9:03am Friday 10 December 2010 - LatinOcean I was pretty sure I had not bought any virtual goods; I’d rather give a real bunch to the missus instead of getting her a one-dimensional rose on Facebook. Heck I might lose my face if I show with my byte-based present. I caught a bit of the first day of @leweb a couple of [...] | View Full Article Email Article |

Young or Older, we need you Bolder
12:12pm Tuesday 31 August 2010 - LatinOcean I am always a bit sceptical about news of studies regarding perceptions and attitutes about the mature workforce like the one that got published recently. Don’t get me wrong; if the findings indicate a true change of practice regarding older workers, that’s great. I mean it’s in everyone’s best interest, right? Sooner or later – [...] | View Full Article Email Article |

Seth’s done it again
11:53pm Monday 09 August 2010 - LatinOcean With “Linchpin”, Seth Godin has hit the mark as far as conveying a message that resonates with employers, employees, the self-employed, the entrepreneur: work is art in as much as it is a process filled with generosity provided by individuals that create, connect, produce; and ultimately has an effect on others. Perhaps the book’s punch [...] | View Full Article Email Article |

You can post a job ad, but it will cost you
10:56am Monday 01 February 2010 - LatinOcean It’s the beginning of the year and I am already disappointed. I thought 2010 was going to be the year where significantly less job ads, print or online, were going to include phrases like: - ‘leading multinational’ to refer to the hiring company - ‘high calibre individual’ to refer to the candidate they want to attract - ‘challenging and dynamic environment’ to [...] | View Full Article Email Article |
