Do you know what the Lama says?

Reshared post from +Dalai Lama

Book Review: The Story of Stuff by Annie Leonard.

January 27th, 2012 · Uncategorized

First off – this is a must read. It is going to hurt though. The gist is that we are poisoning ourselves at all points on the consumption cycle. Extraction – Transport – Purchasing and ultimately disposal.

We need to get off the work to spend and consume. We don't need half of the crap we buy. To be honest, I am still digesting this book. There is a lot to get your brain around. It is accessible though.

Product Management Then and Now
Occasionally in my work with technology product teams around the world, I run into product managers that are still practicing the role as it used to be defined back in the PC era of technology. These organizations are inevitably frustrated, as the role was not terribly effective and often not respected.
There are many possible reasons why these organizations have never moved forward. Perhaps the leaders are simply perpetuating what they learned many years ago. Perhaps the organization receive…
