You can share ideas, dreams, or “what ifs”, but, in the end, experience is built by the interaction with reality- not by thinking about an alternative reality. In this article I would like to share some practical experience on how to temper the fury of over-excited zealots of innovation-through-patterns.]]> http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/09/23/change2010_06-evolving-patterns/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/09/20/change2010_03-customer-driven-innovation/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/09/20/change2010_03-customer-driven-innovation/#comments Mon, 20 Sep 2010 05:00:46 +0000 roberto.lofaro http://localhost/GettingAroundTheWorldPreprint/?p=1437 fourth article, patterns within the consumer electronic industry, used as a case study on applying patterns across industries; therefore, it is assumed that you read the previous articles.

And what happens to the old one? It is dumped somewhere- often in developing countries, while all those “recycling” symbol on boxes that make us feel eco-friendly forget to say where and how it will be recycled.]]> http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/09/20/change2010_03-customer-driven-innovation/feed/ 1 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/31/change2010-pattern-based-vs-systemic-change/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/31/change2010-pattern-based-vs-systemic-change/#comments Tue, 31 Aug 2010 11:58:12 +0000 GettingAroundTheWorld.Net http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/?p=1412 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/31/change2010-pattern-based-vs-systemic-change/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/02/cyber-jurisdiction-and-the-cloud-the-smartphone-case/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/02/cyber-jurisdiction-and-the-cloud-the-smartphone-case/#comments Mon, 02 Aug 2010 08:32:27 +0000 GettingAroundTheWorld.Net http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/?p=1368 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/02/cyber-jurisdiction-and-the-cloud-the-smartphone-case/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/01/31/the-biology-of-politics/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/01/31/the-biology-of-politics/#comments Sun, 31 Jan 2010 11:45:37 +0000 GettingAroundTheWorld.Net http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/?p=1247 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/01/31/the-biology-of-politics/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/01/20/maximizing-costs-minimizing-roi-2/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/01/20/maximizing-costs-minimizing-roi-2/#comments Wed, 20 Jan 2010 20:12:20 +0000 GettingAroundTheWorld.Net http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/?p=1239 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/01/20/maximizing-costs-minimizing-roi-2/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/11/25/public-procurement-2-0/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/11/25/public-procurement-2-0/#comments Wed, 25 Nov 2009 07:00:03 +0000 roberto.lofaro http://localhost/wordpresssites/blog/?p=1104 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/11/25/public-procurement-2-0/feed/ 0
