…mit Harald Schmidt in der Weltwoche:
Vielleicht lauert hinter der Maske nur eine gigantische Leere. Das halte ich nicht für unwahrscheinlich.

Call centers
“I’ve said it before–your call center is probably the single cheapest investment you can make in building your consumer or business to business brand among customers and motivated prospects.”

Steve Ballmer, CEO, Microsoft
You may have varied opinions on him & the company he represents, but check out the Channel 9 interview with Steve Ballmer.
Can you imagine a German CEO of a multi-billion dollar shop, let’s say our dear friend Jürgen E. Schrempp, being filmed & interviewed sitting in front of his office door with a standard camcorder by one of his underlings (albeit a high-profile underling :-).
Can you imagine him being as passionate about his work as Ballmer is? Can you imagine him having an office as unpretentious as Ballmer? You can’t?
Think about it.

Update I: Yes, some of Ballmers answers have kind of a rehearsed quality – but that’s not my point.
Update II: Our CEO is even more passionate than Ballmer. But we’re not a billion dollar shop (yet 🙂

Developers are from Mars, Managers are from Venus
Indeed.
Let me re-phrase it: Developers are from Mars, Marketing & Sales are from Venus 🙂
Very funny.

The End of the Rainbow
An excellent editorial on how Ireland became the second richest country in the EU, right after Luxembourg: The End of the Rainbow. (Via BitWorking).
I suspect that Ireland got its fair share of EU support over the last decades, but that doesn’t change the fact that Ireland is doing great while Germany isn’t. We’re still arguing about the negative impact of globalization instead of taking advantage of it.
