1) Communication skills are important for how others perceive you and your ability to effectively convey ideas.
2) It is important to understand different backgrounds and perspectives and not judge others hastily. Compromise and finding common ground are important for productivity.
3) When trying to influence others, the goal should be open discussion of ideas rather than stubbornly insisting on one viewpoint. Convincing others requires patience and understanding different perspectives.
4) Conflict itself is not bad if it leads to improved solutions, so don't be too rigid in your views and be willing to listen to others. The priority should be positive outcomes for all.
"Upgrade is needed" indicator for your business scorecardAleksey Savkin
One of our customers asked, how often he should do a major upgrade of their Balanced Scorecard. I had some thoughts on the topic which mainly were focused on the link between a company's strategy and a Balanced Scorecard. Trying to put things together I found out that an upgrade plan for the Balanced Scorecard is quite similar to the one for a car:
-- One need for feeding BSC with data; is similar to tanking a car with fuel;
-- There are some minor updates, choosing better KPIs if needed; which are similar to car's regular service checks;
-- There are major upgrades of BSC stressed by changed business environment; in car analogy, as when one buys a new car because life's priorities have changed;
Following a car analogy: modern cars have an oil life indicator that is based on the measurement of electric conductivity. It tells a driver based on actual data when it is time to go to the service center. My idea is to supply a business scorecard with an "upgrade is needed" indicator, which might be as simple as a countdown of a specified period of time or a sophisticated combination of other indicators.
All these ideas were summarized in the presentation and the article here:

What do you think about an idea to use "upgrade is needed" indicator on a scorecard?
This document provides an overview of thermography and infrared temperature measurement. It discusses the basics of near, mid, and thermal infrared wavelengths and how atoms emit infrared energy as photons when electrons move between energy orbitals. Thermal images show the infrared energy emitted, transmitted, and reflected by an object. Emissivity describes a material's ability to emit thermal radiation. Thermal imaging systems use uncooled or cooled infrared detectors to capture infrared wavelengths and convert them into temperature measurements using techniques like two color thermometry. Thermography has applications in areas like condition monitoring, healthcare, security, and manufacturing.
Sie halten das erste Jahrbuch des Historischen Museums Basel in den Händen. Jahrbuch deshalb, weil wir den bisherigen Jahresbericht inhaltlich ausgebaut und angereichert haben: Statt nur die Ereignisse des Vorjahres mit Enddatum am Jahresende retrospektiv aufzulisten, wagen wir auch einen Ausblick und erklären unseren eingeschlagenen Weg mit der zukunftsgerichteten eCulture-Strategie und lassen darin auch Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter zu Wort kommen.
Der chronologisch erzählerische Rückblick in zwölf Monaten gewährt einen Blick hinter die Kulissen des Museumsalltags. Bewusst werden darin auch interne Aktivitäten erwähnt, um die Komplexität eines heutigen Museumsbetriebs zu dokumentieren. Arbeiten im Hintergrund, die sonst kaum wahrgenommen werden, oder auch aussergewöhnliche Schenkungen, von denen die Öffentlichkeit für gewöhnlich nicht hört, runden den Rückblick ab. Durch das HMB-Jahrbuch zieht sich erstmals eine Bildstrecke mit national und international bewegenden Momenten des letzten Jahres, die direkt oder indirekt Auswirkungen auf das Leben der Baslerinnen und Basler hatten und in Zukunft haben werden. Diese Bildstrecke illustriert die Verankerung des Museums in der Jetztzeit ebenso wie seine Rolle als urbanes Laboratorium, in dem ein interkulturelles Verständnis von Geschichte und Kulturerbe der Stadt ausgehandelt wird.
Selbstverständlich haben die traditionellen Kapitel zu Ausstellungen, Vermittlung, Publikationen, Zahlen und Fakten sowie dem als Lexikon konzipierten Sammlungszuwachs wie gewohnt ihren Platz. Wie üblich schliesst auch der Band 2014 mit dem Jahresbericht des Vereins für das Historische Museum Basel, der die Finanzierung dieser Publikation grosszügig unterstützt. Dafür danken wir dem Verein sehr!
Wir danken auch all unseren Gönnern, Donatoren, Sponsoren und Kooperationspartnern, ohne die unsere Arbeit schlicht nicht möglich wäre.
The document defines key performance indicators (KPIs) as quantifiable measures that help companies gauge their performance against strategic goals. KPIs vary by industry but generally measure aspects like sales, costs, and quality. The document outlines objectives for KPIs like improving understanding and awareness of performance. It also discusses characteristics of good KPIs like being specific, measurable, and time-bound. Finally, the document provides examples of common KPIs for industries like shipping/logistics and infrastructure development.
