My dad valued luck. I have fond childhood memories of him backing the car out of our garage on warm spring evenings and unfolding the ping pong table. We would go at it for hours sometimes. Dad had an uncanny knack for hitting the ball to the very end of the table so that it […] The post Do You Feel Lucky, Punk? appeared first on PMP Certification Exam Prep & Training - Velociteach.

Over the past decade, companies have embraced innovation with enthusiasm—Chief Innovation Officers have been hired, and in-house incubators, accelerators, and co-creation labs have been launched. CEOs have spoken with passion about “making everyone an innovator” and the need “to disrupt our own business.” But after years of experimentation, senior leaders are asking: Is this still just an experiment, or are we in it for the long haul?

2 weeks ago, I’m traveling from Atlanta to California. I drive to the airport to catch my flight, go through security, and walk to my gate with plenty of time to spare. I look up at the monitor and see that all 26 seats in first class are full.

Recently, I read an interesting book by Peter Sims, “Little Bets,” which brings up a really important question: can failure, in fact, take us further than success? The answer is: yes, if we know how to deal with it. While interviewing the executives at Amazon, General Motors and Google, as well as successful musicians, architects and comedians, Sims discovered one thing they had in common.

My colleague, Henry, got stuck in the Bahamas, so I need to quickly reassign all his tasks scheduled for this week to Adam. Do you think I will do it one-by-one? No way! I search all the tasks assigned to Henry in Wrike project management software and click on the "select all" checkbox. If I needed to select just some of them, I would just click on the corresponding checkboxes while holding the CTRL key (CMD on Mac).

My teammate Henry is on vacation in the Bahamas right now and will be out of the office until September 1, so I have to reassign all his tasks to someone else. But the first thing I have to do is find his tasks among hundreds of others in dozens of projects. I check Henry in assignees (1) and specify the time frame for his tasks (2). That's that!
