Searching my network - Day 82


While going through my LinkedIn network with over 1.200 1st level contacts it becomes evident for me, that many people are in the same situation as me - looking for a new challenge - especially on executive level. Based on talks with executive search companies it is my estimate that finding a new job on executive level can take between 6-18 month and more likely between 12-24 month - unless the general market conditions improves substantially during 2012. And I don't see this happening. During the past three years mane industries, markets and companies has been taken apart and rebuild -- and it will take another three years before global market mechanism has been restored and growth is again happening at a stable level. Through my board responsibilities I know that market conditions are improving and jobs are being created - just not from the top level yet - but more on middle management level and operational level - and that is good.

Globalisering er så vidt et begreb, at konsekvenserne af globaliseringen skal belyses snævert. Det er derfor på tide at globaliseringsdebatten bliver mere kvalificeret og nuanceret. Hvor ofte har vi ikke læst, at ”globaliseringen kræver at vi tør tænke nyt”, at vi skal ”vinde det globale kapløb på viden, kreativitet og godt købmandskab” og at mange danske virksomheder ”ikke ved hvordan man kommer fra overskrifter til en konkret og fremadrettet strategi”? I den forbindelse er det på sin plads at definere ordet strategi. Jeg refererer til Berlingske Nyhedsmagasin nr. 28, der i deres artikel ”I har misforstået hvad strategi er” citerer professor Michael Porter...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
