Why are some designs better than others, and what can you do about it? (The Talk)
If you've ever described a poster as heavy, a website as dense, an app as clumsy or an object as whimsical, you probably already know the answer. Recent psychology research is showing that experiential metaphors are key emotional drivers that impact our perception of the world. Applying these findings to design confirms what designers have learned throughout their careers—good design is subconscious first and rational second. Michael will share stories from this research and the IDEO portfolio then share tools to help you be more consciously subconscious.

This document discusses approaches to open data and its reuse. It outlines both top-down and bottom-up strategies, and argues that a combination of the two may be most effective. On the one hand, a top-down approach aims to harvest, harmonize and enrich data on a global scale. However, locally governed data leads to locally relevant apps.

Not very often do you hear children say, “I want to be a fundraiser or mobilise the resources when I grow up!” When I was younger and first making choices about my future, fundraising meant "Pluto" to me.

It is definitely not about getting donations- you’ll need to inspire passion and learn the art of asking.
Being in advancement, in this very special profession, has given me more of personal satisfaction than I have gotten in any of the other activities I have ever done in my life. It gets me up every day and happy to come to work. It doesn’t get better than that.

The article discusses two main issues that contribute to ongoing ethical problems in business: failed leadership and lack of moral awareness. Failed leadership is about leaders not fully committing to transparency and empowering employees, which can lead to alienation. Leaders must also be morally aware by committing to principles, understanding risks of living by principles, and having resolve to pay the price for upholding values. Addressing these issues through values-based leadership training can help close the gap between professed and practiced values in organizations.
Now you're asking for it! A Culture of Continuous FeedbackJason Schreuder
Agile has feedback loops on the products we build, and on the process we use to do it, but people feedback is really hard! Studies have shown that people have a negative physiological reaction to just the thought of having to give or receive feedback. But are we conditioned to be terrible at feedback from our experiences in traditional work environments, with all of their power dynamics and political undercurrents? In this talk, we will explore the science behind giving and receiving feedback, and how you can create a culture where everyone actually asks for feedback, continually, and celebrates it as a cultural norm. Even the best agilists struggle working with teams on safety, trust, and feedback. This is a crucial leadership skill, and leaders at all levels should be well versed in this topic.
Learning Outcomes:
Interpret the science behind giving and receiving feedback
Compare various elements of effective feedback
Discuss models of kind, human-centered feedback that you can use in your teams

For decades Cyprus has been established as a vibrant business hub with a thriving
economy. Cyprus’ economic performance is indicated in various global reports

With this report the Centre for Entrepreneurship of the University of Cyprus intends to
evaluate these favorable conditions in relation to the formation, operation and evolution

Will try to give an inside point of view on how a Cyprus based company treats ideas and solutions salespeople in general, what they should be prepared for, what options/ decisions they should take before requesting a business meeting. General understanding of B2B and B2C models, what a business concept is and why is needed, how do companies operate towards expenses – a brief inside of budget and time frames.

By 2020, several key building blocks of the future tech universe have been firmly established. Significant progress in areas such as quantum computing, big data, artificial intelligence, robotics and immersive reality have been made, enabling a clearer understanding of how tech will develop in the next 10-20 years.
By 2030, emerging robotics and AI will have made remarkable progress in changing the face of current industries and processes. Most fast food outlets will run mainly on robotic labour, with human labour representing only a small fraction of total spend. AI will be able to support, and eventually supplant, at least 90% of current effort implemented by service professionals such as accounting, consulting, or law.
And by 2040, we will feel comfortable enough with this technology that it will be widely adapted. Our cities, homes and workplaces will be transformed through technology and predictive analytics. Self-driving vehicles will reduce congestion and pollution. Robots will remove the need for widespread human labour. Most processes, such as financial management, will be fully automated and managed by intelligent agents, removing the need for mundane tasks like queuing at a bank or going to a supermarket for groceries.
Advances in gene therapies and biological – mechatronic interfaces will rapidly transform medical technology and health outcomes. These have the potential to not only significantly expand human lifespan, but also improve human health.
At the same time, it is clear that as a society and as a government / economic policy, we are far behind the curve in understanding how these will affect our educational systems, employment and the very idea of human potential.
Comparatively few citizens will be able to adapt successfully to gainful employment (or entrepreneurship) in the future tech society. This means that families and citizens today need to start making decisions for how they will live 20 years from now. These decisions affect their own educational and investment choices, as well as the very nature of our society.
Philip Ammerman will discuss the future trends in tech and how these will affect companies, families and governments in 2030 and 2040.

Everyone has great ideas, and many of us have more than one. But how can you evaluate your idea to understand whether it’s good enough to launch as a business?
Το design thinking είναι μια ανθρωποκεντρική, διεπιστημονική προσέγγιση που έχει ως στόχο να βοηθήσει τις επιχειρήσεις (π.χ. νεοσύστατες εταιρείες) να αλλάξουν και να καινοτομήσουν. Το design thinking ακολουθεί μια προσέγγιση η οποία συνδυάζει δημιουργική και ορθολογική σκέψη, και περιλαμβάνει μια διαδικασία που αποτελείται από ενσυναίσθηση (emphasize), παραγωγή ιδεών (idea) και δημιουργία πρωτοτύπων (prototype).
The gaming industry is exponentially expanding touching everyone's lives daily without even realizing it. Millions of games have been released and are now readily available for us to play from our living room to our social media on our phone. Working in this industry is truly fascinating. Working in a truly global company with offices around the world is even more fascinating.
I will share with you my knowledge on gaming, discuss its future and teach you best practises in working with teams of different cultures.
Σε αυτή την παρουσίαση θα καλυφθούν τα βασικά για το επιχειρηματικό σχέδιο: τι είναι, γιατί το χρειαζόμαστε, σε ποιους απευθύνεται, τι περιέχει – ορισμοί για κάποιες έννοιες, ποια “εργαλεία” χρησιμοποιούνται για την δημιουργία των σημαντικών ενοτήτων του, ποιοι οι λόγοι απόρριψης του από τους επενδυτές και ποια είδη κινδύνων στην εκπόνηση του.
Its not always easy to have your interview done face to face with the company you want to work and is miles away from you. First impressions are key and many companies ask for either a live video interview or that you explain yourself in an one minute video.
How do you do that? What are the crucial things to avoid in such situations? Yes you might be doing the video home but should you be wearing your favorite sports t-shirt while the TV is on in the background?
We will talk about the right set up, the right lighting, and how to make eye contact even through a camera. Simple steps of video editing will be shown as well as examples will be given.
This document provides an introduction to negotiation skills. It discusses the negotiating process, which includes preparing, probing, and proposing. It outlines the 3Ps of negotiation - prepare, probe, propose. When preparing, it is important to clarify objectives, understand the other side's position, and develop your own position. Probing involves asking questions to understand the other party and actively listening. Proposing involves bargaining and making offers within your negotiable range. Effective negotiation relies more on having the right attitude than techniques. The attitude should be positive, believe the other party is negotiating in good faith, and be convinced in your own position.
The document summarizes the core business, vision, activities, and certifications of Blue Island Plc, a fish farming and trading company in Cyprus.

Proposed protective measures are presented to address high conductivity, organic matter, and suspended solids in wastewater through techniques like dilution, RO water purification, and separating solids. Potential obstacles to the proposals are space limitations and cost.

Ideas discussed include using RFID, image recognition, dispensing machines, or barcode scanning but each option has limitations around cost, feasibility on vessels, or reliance on technology.
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 causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.
The hospitality industry is transitioning from offline personal contacts and one-way marketing to online data-driven approaches and reputation management as customer experiences move from expected and common offline to more authentic experiences shared online. While big data, integration, consolidation and improved UX provide challenges, human experiences will always be driven by human interactions.
The threat of automation implies a race between education and technology. In most countries, education systems are not providing workers with the skills necessary to compete in today’s job markets. The growing mismatch between skills demand and supply holds back economic growth and undermines opportunities. At the same time, the returns to human capital are high in most countries, and a growing skills premium is evident in much of the world. Automation simultaneously results in deskilling and imposes a need for new skills, and is changing what education will need to look like in the future.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

creativity and the principles I practice through my work
• I am committed to my business 100%
• I am ambitious
Who is Xeni today?
3. • I live with discipline not with boundaries
• I am a giver
• I have an analytical mind
• I love completely
• Some people find me to be a pleasure to work with
• Others find me to be challenging, difficult to work with, unrealistic
and a stressful personality
• Others don’t align with my belief system at all
Who is Xeni today?
4. • My business partner
• My start-up family
• One female lawyer
• One female personal assistant
• One male auditor
• One male CEO of an investment firm
• One male manager of an insurance company
• One male high-school friend who is also an entrepreneur
• One male university student studying multimedia
Who is my business ecosystem today?
6. They share the same
beliefs but with different
perspectives
7. • My business partner
• My start-up family
• My traditional family
• My mother
• My father
• and my two brothers
Who is my business ecosystem today?
16. • My business partner
• My start-up family
• My traditional family
• My clients
• My employees
• My collaborators
Who is my business ecosystem today?
19. • My business partner
• My start-up family
• My traditional family
• My clients
• My employees
• My collaborators
• Those who provide me with services: My bank, my lawyer, my
auditor, government etc.
Who is my business ecosystem today?
21. We help each other to
survive and grow in the
business ecosystem
22. • My Self
• My Belief
• My Idea
Who was my business ecosystem in 2011?
23. What should I have been
thinking at this point?
Ask Yourself these 5
Questions once a month
24. What are you thinking?
The Psychology of Innovation
25. • I have a unique idea and I believe in it 100%
• It is time for a new chapter in my life and I am ready for it
• I wish more control over my financial destiny
• I wish a lifestyle business where I am responsible to nobody but
myself
• I wish to finally have a boss I truly understand: the person I see
every day in the mirror fits that description better
• There is great value to the community at large if my idea gets
implemented
• And there is one critical question someone should ask you every
month: are you making money?
27. • This is the question that differentiates between your new business
from a hobby that excites your or relaxes you
• If you say you are in business, then you’ve got to focus on making
money
• Our clients are used to doing business over coffee tables in offices.
The physical distance between the buyer side of the coffee table and
the seller’s side can be measured in centimetres
• But the psychological distance between buyer and seller is
measured in miles
• You need a drastic change in perspective to bridge the psychological
distance and close deals.
29. • You are not simply changing job titles. You are changing perspective. If you
do not find this process scary, it means you do not fully appreciate what you
are about to do
• Having a paid mentor will help you focus since it is the mentor’s job to
ensure your success. Executives in transition can provide excellent advice.
Invest in them
• Expect to pay them a fee since you are in business to make money. This
conveys you are prepared to take your advisors seriously. Improve their fee
as you make more money
• The important thing is to select people with similar beliefs but different
perspectives from yours. Select people who you can trust to be honest with
you in all the challenges you will face. And avoid bringing in people whose
main value is that they "might" open doors for you
31. • Learned habits of success got you far in your career
• Those same habits of success might become future barriers for you
• You are on the seller's side of the coffee table now, your perspective
is not the same
• If you think learning is hard, compare it to the pain of unlearning your
habits
34. How much time are you spending on new business development?
How much time do you spend reading about or watching great sales
professionals? You will probably notice that they display an abiding
interest in others’ issues and needs supported by perseverance,
money motivation, ability to prospect, and close deals.
Have you learned to start listening to the unsolved problems of
those with the authority to write cheques to you?
35. Does the market like your idea?
If it does, will the market stop liking your idea before you've
recouped your investment?
Are the costs of an innovation eating too much of your profit?
Are you making money??
36. Thank you!!
