Ramón Baez, HP: Why the CIO Needs to Think Like a CEO
Palo Alto, Calif., USA - October 02, 2014 - Don't limit yourself by focusing only on technology or on IT. A key part of being a business leader is having executive presence. The best CIOs that I've met sound like they could be CEOs when they talk about how they are positively impacting their organizations' business results. One trend I've seen is that CIOs now come from different business backgrounds, some more technical than others. Thinking about your career and your reputation as a business leader is critical to success. I have an executive coach myself and encourage my senior leadership to do the same. At HP, we also have an IT employee development program that is designed to equipment our global team with the skills - both technical and people-oriented - that they need to successfully deal with the changing nature of IT - the New Style of IT. Don't be afraid to embrace change yourself and get ready for the future.

Geoexplorers International: Jak uratować polskie łupki
Warszawa - 29 września 2014 - "Polska niech weźmie przykład ze Stanów Zjednoczonych, a nawet... Trynidadu i Tobago, bardzo małego kraju położonego na dwóch niewielkich wyspach Karaibów. W 2007 roku zanosiło się na wielki boom w poszukiwaniach gazu łupkowego w Polsce. Niestety, mimo sukcesów ponad 20 lat wolnego rynku w Polsce górę wzięła mentalność rodem z systemu centralnego planowania i podejrzliwość wobec obcego kapitału. Boom wygasł." - pisze amerykański ekspert polskiego pochodzenia dr Jan Krasoń, prezes firmy Geoexplorers International, Inc. w Denver w USA.
