On Productivity

Here's my simple productivity model; borrowed from Csikszentmihalyi's model.   What kind of work help you to lose track of time and forget yourselves completely because you are so immersed in what you are doing? US psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's model has the answer. You are happiest when you are absorbed in an often exhausting activity – totally contradicting the common belief that happiness has to do with relaxation.

On People Management

People management is often the most critical aspect of a team, group or organization. I developed this simple 2X2 matrix to manage and motivate team members. As a team leader, you can put all the members of your team in different coordinates or let the team members self-assess themselves. That way you can avoid the perception bias.
