Empleados motivados y sin jefes, así funcionan las nuevas tecnológicas en EEUU: ” Muchas compañías están apostando por una organización basada en la corresponsabilidad y autonomía de los trabajadores”. Así empieza y justifica el artículo que os adjunto una tendencia empresarial, que me ha dado pie a escribir este post. Primero un poco escandalizado por el atrevimiento, luego un poco molesto porque responde a una falta real de profesionalidad muy extendida entre los managers y por ultimo confiado en que esta tendencia no progrese. Ya no soy jefe y por tanto no me siento ni atacado, ni en peligro pero me cuesta mucho trabajo pensar que esta tendencia haya llegado para quedarse y espero que sea tan poco exitosa como alguna iniciativa similar en otros ámbitos, por ejemplo, la cocina desestructurada.

Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando... Anarquía, Halocracia, Democracia y la Lógica Distribuida. Sigo con la sección semanal dedicada a repasar mis lecturas, proyectos e ideas. Esta semana la tenemos bien caliente: Anarquía, Halocracia y Democracia y Lógica Distribuida. Anarquía VIVIR LA UTOPIA | Documental sobre el Anarquismo en España durante la guerra civilCompartido en twitter por @Ricardo_AMASTE La revista Yorokobu también dedica una articulo a este tema, partiendo de una estraña asociación con los hipster: ¿Son los hipsters los extraños hijos del anarquismo? El articulo incluye algunas reflexiones mias. Holacracia Según la Wikipedia, Holacracia es una tecnología social o un sistema de gobernanza donde la autoridad y la toma de decisiones se distribuyen a través de una holarquía fractal formada por equipos autoorganizados en lugar de depender de jerarquía. ‬ Democracia ¿Tiene sentido votar cada cuatro años cuando existe tecnología para expresar nuestra opinión instantáneamente?

Bernardo Gutiérrez (@bernardosampa) escribe sobre Herramientas para una Democracia en tiempo real. Una panadería anarquista en París. Javier Albisu (EFE) 'La conquête du pain' es un comercio de barrio a las afueras de París donde nueve personas se dedican a elaborar baguettes, cruasanes y bollos de chocolate. Un establecimiento de esquina no muy diferente, a priori, de las otras 35.000 panaderías esparcidas por el territorio galo. Sin embargo, es la única boulangerie anarquista del área de la capital de Francia, país donde el pan, el queso y el vino, forman parte del imaginario colectivo con el que se identifica la nación de la Torre Eiffel. "Somos una panadería autogestionada. Aquí no hay jefes, funcionamos de manera colegiada y celebramos una asamblea cada dos semanas donde decidimos lo que vamos a hacer. Todos tenemos el mismo salario de 1.350 euros al mes y el mismo reparto de beneficios", explica Pierre Pawin, impulsor de esta peculiar cooperativa. 'La conquête du pain' nació hace tres años en Montreuil, antiguo feudo del Partido Comunista aledaño a París, gobernado hoy por los ecologistas.

Sistema de liderazgo horizontal. Aurora Muñoz Todos lo hemos pensado alguna vez. "Las cosas serían muy distintas si fuese el jefe de mi empresa". Los trabajadores de algunas de las nuevas compañías tecnológicas de Estados Unidos ya tienen la posibilidad de comprobar si estaban en lo cierto. Medium, una empresa de diseño y marketing online radicada en Chattanooga (Tennessee), y GitHub, dedicada a potenciar la creación de software de código abierto desde San Francisco, aplican la holacracia. "Nuestra estructura está completamente erigida en torno al trabajo que nuestra compañía necesita para lograr sus metas.

Los partidarios del bossless apuestan también por la transparencia absoluta de la información que afecta a la empresa, el reparto integral y la corresponsabilidad en la toma de decisiones. "El planteamiento no es, en modo alguno, novedoso", indica Eduardo Rojo, catedrático de Derecho del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social en Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona. Psicología. Body Language.

Mike was in his room writing a paper for his U.S. History class. On his desk next to his computer sat crunched Red Bulls, empty Gatorade bottles, some extra pocket change and scattered pieces of paper.

In the pocket of his sweat pants rested a blaring iPod with a chord that dangled near the floor, almost touching against his Adidas sandals. Mike made a shift about every thirty seconds between all of the above. Do you know a person like this? The Science Behind Concentration In the above account, Mike’s obviously stuck in a routine that many of us may have found ourselves in, yet in the moment we feel it’s almost an impossible routine to get out of. When we constantly multitask to get things done, we’re not multitasking, we’re rapidly shifting our attention. Phase 1: Blood Rush Alert When Mike decides to start writing his History essay, blood rushes to his anterior prefrontal cortex. Phase 2: Find and Execute. Psychology stuff. Want to Know If Someone Likes You?

Ever wondered if someone you're attracted to likes you or not, whether someone is your friend or foe, or whether your employees respect you? There's an easy way to find out... try to make them laugh . If the laughter comes easy, the answer is likely yes. If it doesn't, the answer is likely no. In my bachelor days, I spent many years slowly learning about the ins and outs of the mating market. In my first corporate job, I was working on a project team for a few months where I didn't really like my two supervisors all that much. Many years later in grad school (my advisor was Prof. When we meet new people, it may take a while to figure out whether a relationship (of any kind) is desirable.

Humor may serve many functions, but the "interest indicator" theory says that an important one is to indicate relationship interest, whether among potential or ongoing mates, friends, and allies, or among family members. That’s Not OCD, You’re Just a Slacker. Of all the random pictures floating about the internet that I’ve run into in the past few weeks, this is the one that really got me: Here’s the text: A 23-year old medical student makes lists of all the tasks that he must accomplish each day. He spends hours studying and refuses to go out with his colleagues even when there are no tests on the immediate horizon, preferring to spend his time looking at specimens in the laboratory. He keeps meticulous notes during all his classes and prefers to attend every lecture, not trusting his colleagues to take notes for him.

He is doing well in school and has a girlfriend who is also a medical student. Even I, Mr. The medical student in this essay question doesn’t have obsessive-compulsive disorder, it’s just that in the age of slackerdom and ADD, diligence and focus looks like OCD. If you’d like to read more about how effort trumps talent, take a look at Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers, K. So bravo, unknown psych student with a blue pen. Hedgehog's dilemma.

Both Arthur Schopenhauer and Sigmund Freud have used this situation to describe what they feel is the state of individual in relation to others in society. The hedgehog's dilemma suggests that despite goodwill, human intimacy cannot occur without substantial mutual harm, and what results is cautious behavior and weak relationships. With the hedgehog's dilemma, one is recommended to use moderation in affairs with others both because of self-interest, as well as out of consideration for others.

The hedgehog's dilemma is used to explain introversion and isolationism. Schopenhauer[edit] The concept originates in the following parable from the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer's Parerga und Paralipomena, Volume II, Chapter XXXI, Section 396:[1] A number of porcupines huddled together for warmth on a cold day in winter; but, as they began to prick one another with their quills, they were obliged to disperse. Freud[edit] Social psychological research[edit] References[edit] 6 Beloved Characters That Had Undiagnosed Mental Illnesses. It's unlikely that the writers who created these characters consciously decided they would give them an undiagnosed mental disorder as one of their traits.

Maybe they were just borrowing behaviors of a "quirky" friend, or maybe the writers suffered from the disorder and wrote the characters to mimic their own life. But one way or another, these characters show all the symptoms ... #6. Sherlock Holmes -- Asperger's Syndrome It's tough to pin down the exact personality traits of Sherlock Holmes, since his story has been recycled in so many incarnations. He's the most-portrayed fictional character in the world, running the gamut from Basil Rathbone playing a jolly English gentleman who fights Nazis to Robert Downey Jr.'s Victorian Rain Man/MMA fighter.

I’ve learned in 12-step support groups that if you decide to share something important with a loved one, or try to mend a broken relationship, you should do so without any expectation of a response. I wish I had followed that advice the day I sent a family member an incredibly personal piece that I wrote about my severe depression (suicidal thoughts and all), and the first moments of dawn, hoping that it would make us closer. Her response was one word: “Thanks.” I felt like Princess Leia in “Star Wars” when she cries out to Han Solo (before he leaves for some empire war): “I love you!” And he says back, “I know!”

But part of my disappointment was my own fault. I sent the piece to her with an agenda. And when I didn’t get that, I was upset. My mom keeps teaching me that lesson. “No one understands, Mom. “Who cares?” “Because I’m not weak and it’s unfair to be labeled that way,” I explained. “I don’t think you’re weak. Just as seasoned parents say “Just you wait!” But I should know better. Animal behaviour. How Long Until We Learn Animal Languages? - Many scientists are trying to learn the communication systems of various animals. - One obstacle is the notion that animals don't actually have languages. Koko the gorilla can comprehend roughly 2,000 words of spoken English. She doesn't have a vocal tract suitable for responding verbally, so the 40-year-old ape signs her thoughts using a modified form of American Sign Language.

Counting her native gorilla tongue, she is, therefore, trilingual. And she doesn't just talk about food. NEWS: Are Some Brains Better at Learning Languages? Alex the African grey parrot could utter some 150 English words by the time of his death in 2007. From Chaser the border collie and Kanzi the bonobo to Akeakamai the dolphin, lab animals of many stripes have excelled at learning the rudiments of human languages.

Surely, as the most intelligent species, humans could learn to understand dolphin-speak better than dolphins learn sign language. As it turns out, many scientists are trying. Prairie dog prattle. La evolución podría explicar los diferentes comportamientos sexuales del hombres y la mujer - Yahoo! Noticias Perú. (www.neomundo.com.ar) Los hombres y mujeres no se comportan de la misma manera ni antes ni después de hacer el amor. Por ese motivo, una nueva investigación analizó las diferencias desde el punto de vista evolutivo. Los autores del Albright College (Estados Unidos) encontraron que, de todos los ítems analizados, el único que no mostró diferencias significativas entre ambos sexos fue el de decir “te amo” después de tener relaciones con una pareja estable.

“Tiene sentido que si tanto un hombre como una mujer quieren una relación a largo plazo, ambos comprenden que el tiempo después del sexo puede ser un momento de intimidad y de expresión del afecto mutuo”, dijo Susan Hughes, uno de los autores. Las conclusiones fueron publicadas en The Journal of Sex Research. Hughes esperaba que las conductas posteriores a hacer el amor fueran diferentes en cada sexo debido a “las divergentes estrategias reproductivas adaptativas” del hombre y la mujer. Lek (comportamiento animal)

Lek arena de cortejo, en el caso del urogallo de las artemisas Centrocercus urophasianus. Cada macho , bien sea macho-alfa (el de mayor rango), o macho-beta, gamma, etc., defiende un territorio con un tamaño medio de unos pocos metros, y en los que los machos dominantes pueden atraer hasta 8 o más hembras.[1] Se muestra en el dibujo cada individuo con sus variaciones en su espacio individual (Proxémica) (representado por las burbujas), apreciándose que los de mayor rango disponen de mayores "burbujas" de espacio.[2] En las aves los lek constan de 25-30 individuos. En esta localización existe una estricta jerarquía, los machos de más alta categoría se situarían en el centro de lek, el resto se iría alejando según su rango hasta llegar a la periferia donde se encontrarían los machos de menos importancia.

La hembras llegarían para ser fecundadas al lek, y pasarían entre todos los machos hasta llegar a los dominantes del centro. Nonverbal communication. Historia. Pre-history and antiquity. Mitología. Curiosidades.
