0706 - Summary/Objective
0707 -
070701 - Follow up ref SDS 26 0000, ref SDS 25 0000.
070702 -
070703 - Finally got some connected subsidiary pages in the Communication
070704 - Metrics Web site, that enable people to get a strong feel about what
070705 - "intelligence" means.  Got a first lift on a POIMS page and one for
070706 - Communication Metrics.  Decided for now, now to create separate pages
070707 - for people, process and time, as initially planned.

071102 - Home page, Add "Quicklink for the Day"
071103 -
071104 - We might be able to create a little interest by having a feature that
071105 - addresses a topical management issue once a week.
071106 -
071107 - Call it "Quicklink for the Day" but have it run for a week, to give
071108 - people a chance to investigate and respond.
071109 -
071110 - The first quicklink can be:
071111 -
071112 -     Virtual office, fact or fantasy?
071113 -
071114 - This can be answered as "both," because using conventional solutions,
071115 - it is still a "dream in the mainstream," but with Communication
071116 - Metrics, it is a reality.  Link users to the review of the telecon
071117 - with Tom that reviewed the article in PMJ on 980613. ref SDS 20 2070

071122 - Home Page added Scope of Services
071123 -
071124 - Added a link to scope of services, which is also on the Communication
071125 - Metrics page, but this gives it better visibility.

071130 - 00201 Create Web page for POIMS
071131 - POIMS Technology Integrates People, Process, Time
071132 -
071133 - Follow up ref SDS 26 2896.
071134 -
071135 - Created ref OF 7 0000.  Decided for now, not to have separate pages
071136 - for "people, process and time." so linked these items on Home page to
071137 - the POIMS page.
071138 -
071139 - Have not explained SDS yet.
071140 -
071141 - Begin with idea that "management productivity" has not improved
071142 - despite $billions invested to achieve that aim, per most recent
071143 - report. ref SDS 23 4779
071144 -
071145 - Need to develop following ideas...
071146 -
071147 -      We need a technology that advances the alphabet for making
071148 -      connections.  The technology must offer a standardized
071149 -      organization and method of positioning knowledge and ideas so
071150 -      that correlations and implications can be quickly drawn and so
071151 -      repetition can empower people to apply good practice
071152 -      consistently.  The SDS record structure does this.
071153 -
071154 -      We need a broader application of "knowledge space."
071155 -
071156 -      Explain people are yelling at each other, from telecon on 951101.
071157 -      ref SDS 5 5500 and meetings are unproductive because people spend
071158 -      most of the time arguing about who said what at the last meeting.
071159 -      Linked to analysis of meetings at PG&E on 941211. ref SDS 3 6488
071160 -
071161 -      Cited PMI meetingon 950412 on executives who feel their problems
071162 -      come from managers who do not tell the truth. ref SDS 4 3920
071163 -
071164 -      Cite managers withold truth, because executives cannot handle the
071165 -      truth. per meeting with Dave Vannier on 960103. ref SDS 6 8409
071166 -
071167 -      Cite managers waste 70% of day. 960205. ref SDS 7 5902
071168 -
071169 -      Cite Kissinger on 940609, ref SDS 2 4238.

071175 -
071176 - Follow up ref SDS 26 4112.
071177 -
071178 - Got something on the Web site for this today.
071179 -
071180 - Added section for "Applications and Cost Savings" -- it links to
071181 - USACE and PG&E reports.  Also links to scope of services.
071182 -
071183 - Scope of services is linked to "Requirements" which explains aspects
071184 - of SDS.
071185 -
071186 - We need to mention feedback, accountability, listening, TQM,
071187 - traceability to original sources, which is similar to "root cause
071188 - analysis," and also, "shared meaning."
