Dr. Max Blumberg :

Sergey Brin – founder of Google – learned that he could be significantly predisposed to Parkinson’s Disease. When asked whether ignorance might have been better, his response is that knowledge is better than uncertainty since he can now make adjustments to his life to reduce the risk and fund further research. I suspect it is this kind of thinking that puts Google where it is today; it’s all about Knowledge.

Yet, many organisations prefer to either live in ignorance about the risks in their organisations or rely on subjective gut-feel rather than objective measurement to assess it.

Of course the advantage of measuring risk (operational or strategic) is that the act of measurement itself often points towards the very thing that needs to be adjusted to reduce it.

Yet many businesspeople are frightened of measurement. Why? Because it’s benefits are uncertain? Because they are afraid of their inadequacies being exposed? Because they’re afraid of looking foolish because they don’t understand the measurement techniques?

The interesting thing is that both Brin and Gates are inherently measurers, and in both cases, it’s paid when they bother to do it.

Dr. Max Blumberg :

A fascinating article on The Manager talks about how to manage salespeople born around 1986 – 2000. In fact, the article content is useful advice for any older person who must manage younger people.

As with most articles about Generation Y, the key message (for me at any rate) is about their loyalty and how much harder it will be to retain them. What are the secrets to retaining them? For one, they are “information” generation to whom the Internet is second nature. Therefore, one way to manage them would be to allow them to reach their own conclusions by letting them seek the information they need. Older team members, on the other hand, are more used to being “told” what to do. In fact, this is another area where the old could profitably learn from the young.

Enjoy the article.
