A city that grew in the industrial revolution thanks to the enterprisingness of its inhabitants that strategically used their proximity to the coal of the Ruhr region. Catholics, in 1248 they began the construction of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=scarcityrent.com&amp;blog=780707&amp;post=520&amp;subd=gabrielbcn&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

People use the world strategy to make their position more sexy, combining it with words like direction, information, product, customer or even online, web 2.0 and blog. Always followed by strategy.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always defended simplicity. From Occam&#8217;s razor in the 14th century we know the lex parsimoniae, meaning parsimoniae simplicity, brevity and succincty. When different explanations are available, ceteris paribus or other things being equal in plain English, the simplest wins. Thus the simpler the better. Probably you&#8217;ll also remember Einstein&#8216;s quote: &#8220;make it as simple [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=scarcityrent.com&amp;blog=780707&amp;post=202&amp;subd=gabrielbcn&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

When we hear of things like holistic thinking or quantum management sometimes we gaze in surprise or awe, and we listen for a while&#8230; until we [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=scarcityrent.com&amp;blog=780707&amp;post=197&amp;subd=gabrielbcn&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Reading Mintzberg&#8217;s 1971 definition was quite interesting, but management didn&#8217;t start there. The word comes from Latin, manus-mani, and means &#8220;hand&#8221;. Not the hand that rocks the cradle but the hand that handles, that is manages, horses. And from horses, a basic aptitude to be mastered by humans a couple of millenia ago, to managing [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=scarcityrent.com&amp;blog=780707&amp;post=175&amp;subd=gabrielbcn&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
