2. Proje ve Yapım Yönetimi Kongresi, 13 – 16 Eylül 2012 İzmir Yüksek Teknoloji Enstitüsü, Urla-İzmir
Proje yönetimi ve projelerle yönetim yaklaşımı, gittikçe artan bir uygulama alanı bulmaktadır. Bu alanda kullanılan teknik araçlar ve bu araçlardan beklenen sonuçlar yüksek bir kesinlik beklentisi üzerine kurulmuştur. Karmaşıklık teorisi proje yönetimi yaklaşımına yeni olanaklar getirmektedir. Böylece, sağlanamayan kesinliklerden hesaplanmış belirsizliklere doğru etkin bir açılım yapılabilir, karmaşıklık yaklaşımının temel anlayışları proje yönetimine yansıtılabilir. Yerleşik yaklaşımın dayattığı kalıpları karmaşıklık teorisinin ışığında yeniden gözden geçirmek örgütlere etkin bir iç görü ve sağlamlık sağlayabilir. Bu bildiride; aslında sorunlarımızın büyük bir kısmını oluşturan yaklaşım biçimlerinin uygulama aralığı ve bu yaklaşımın çözümsüzlüklerine yönelik araçlar, yeni bir bakışla incelenecektir

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow and levels of neurotransmitters and endorphins which elevate and stabilize mood.
The presentation is about the changes that took us into the post-information age and why are entrepreneurs so important part of the creative society.
In the presentation you will get familiar with the basics who are successful individuals in the creative society, who are entrepreneurs and what are elements of success for the startup companies.
The presentation also describes the biggest mistakes people make when starting a new business and how can good business ideas be categorized based on their core competence.
Startups don't win because of a great vision, but because of a superior strategy. If you want to have the superior strategy, you must simply have a better customer insight. Customer discovery principles can help you to get real insights about your customers.
The first rule is to fall in love with a problem, not your solution or business idea. You must have a clear picture what your product is hired to do. With customer interviews and different types of tests your job is to prove value hypothesis (that people are prepared to pay for your solution).
You can write down all your hypotheses on business model canvas, running lean canvas or even in a spreadsheet. Then you have to constantly sketch out alternative business models by asking yourself difficult questions and testing different assumptions.
Steps to customer discovery include developing a vision, setting the hypotheses, getting out of the building and performing a reality checks. The best way to start the customer discovery process is with the riskiest assumptions.
Important tools that can help you with customer discovery are also segmentation, personas, empathy map and value proposition canvas. After exploiting all the tools you should have a clear picture what are your customer's pains and gains and what are they willing to pay for.
When you are doing the customer discovery interviews to get the market insights you have to avoid doing any behavior predictions or being satisfied with compliments, opinions or stalling. What are you looking for is a real commitment from early-evangelists.
Remember, wrong assumptions are mother of all fu*ck-ups, and with customer discovery you can make sure you are not building your business based on the wrong assumptions.
