Failure is not an option, or, why you need to ask 'Why?" more often.Alessandro Galetto
We should answer a simple question: "Why companies are built and managed in the way we know?".
In this presentation I will give my answer from an historic, scientific and economic perspective, and, at the same, I will try to show why other models are possible.
Different organisational models are not only possible, but needed when the current models are causing so much pain in modern companies.
We need to reinvent the way company works as well as we must reinvent the definition of career in the 21st century.
We have so many tools and the higher amount of technology that we can use to shape the future of our companies. Which is the reason why we are not doing anything about it?
Even if the presentation is definitely focused on the Italian market it contains elements and ideas that have a broader ranged of applicability.
And, as always, it's not too serious.
I used this presentation for my talk at the Better Software 2013 conference in Florence.

The document discusses the concept of a pedagogy of abundance compared to traditional scarcity-based models. A pedagogy of abundance would be based on assumptions that content is free, abundant, varied and easily shared in a social, connected environment. It explores approaches like resource-based learning, problem-based learning, constructivism, and communities of practice as possible models and concludes that either existing theories need recasting for new technologies or a new theory is required to capture changes in behavior.
This document discusses civic hacking and open data projects. It presents concepts in a series of image pairs with opposing themes, such as "ask permission or just enter", "attend parties or stay apart", "create or observe", "local or global", and "learn or teach". Examples provided include the #SOD Hackathon, monitoring projects, open data portals for municipalities, and coding education initiatives like CoderDojo. The overall message emphasizes both individual action and community involvement in technology for social good.

Lean Startup and Lean UX give you powerful experiment driven methods to learn about customers, products and services. But you’re not dealing with test tubes and chemicals. You’re dealing with people.
The customer backlash from some of Facebook’s experiments last year shows that what companies can do doesn’t always match up with what customers think they should do. How do we keep doing valuable experiments without hurting our customers or damaging our reputation?
There’s a word you hear from experimental scientists you don’t often hear on product teams: Ethics.
How does your organisation help you create ethical experiments? Professional scientists have people & processes to help them deal with ethical issues — experiments pass both professional and institutional standards. Is anyone thinking about ethical standards inside your company — or is the issue being ignored completely?

The document proposes a professional development program for educators that blends constructivism with technology integration based on the theories of these educators. It suggests workshops could demonstrate how technologies like weblogs can be instructional tools when incorporated through a constructivist framework.
Today's teachers need to evolve with their students and society. It is no longer enough to master the basics--students need and want 21st century skills.
The document provides safety tips for using the internet and chatting online:
- It is not safe to give out private information like your name, phone number, address, or school name when chatting with strangers online.
- If someone says mean, threatening, or makes you uncomfortable, you should tell a trusted adult.
- Personal information and passwords should never be shared with strangers, and any suspicious messages or attachments should be deleted without opening.
- The Internet provides both benefits like access to information and communities, but also hazards like identity theft, fraud, and inappropriate content.
- In 2006, over 670,000 fraud complaints were reported to the FTC totaling over $1.1 billion in losses. Many types of identity theft are common, especially credit card fraud.
- Children frequently use the Internet, but often share personal information online and receive unwanted contact, so parents must actively monitor their Internet use.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
