What is a blog?

This article is the first in a series that deals with Business Blogging and Corporate Blogging. The idea was given to me by the participants at the JCI World Congress in Antalya. If you got here, you basically know what it’s about. But, just to make sure we’re talking about the same thing, let’s try [...]

Management quote of the day

“Projects rarely fail – but people do” So much truth in this. Red eyes, headaches, sleepless nights? You were probably a project manager (or in love )

Tired, but on TV, about political blogs

I still can’t recover from the trip back from Antalya, this being the reason the post about the good and the bad things of the JCI World Congres in Antalya still isn’t published. It will be later this week Anyway, the world doesn’t stop spinning, even if I would want to, so I am invited [...]

You are missing people. What to do?

As some of my readers may know, I intend to leave Romania for a year and go and live in cities around the world. Of course, it sounds good, everybody is envious of me, but there are some issues that may appear, issues that do not seem so important when you are preparing to leave [...]

Bulgarian Winter Nightmare

I just reached home, after a horrific 12 hours trip through Bulgaria. Bad roads, closed roads, incomplete directional signs, inexistent directional signs most of the time, actually, and a heavy snow falling, you almost couldn’t see the road. I try to be objective but I can’t: Bulgaria, build a f$%#in’ ROAD to cross the country. [...]

Short recap

I am in Istanbul, on the road back to Romania. The night before I only slept 2 hours, yesterday I drove for 250km at night and in the rain, I got to Istanbul almost unable to speak (this is how tired I was). Thankfully, I got to sleep for about 9 hours today (the first time [...]

Oh, I have been to a training about leadership. The trainer used a parallel between mixing a cocktail and different styles [...]

Resting in Antalya, partying with the Americas (Canada Party, American Party, Americas Party)

I have had some tiresome days lately, so I decided to take a day off from the JCI World Congress. Today’s afternoon was free for all delegates (no trainings and events) so I thought I should just enjoy what Antalya had to offer. Actually, I wanted to go to some trainings in the morning, but [...]

Football and swimming in Antalya

Well, I woke up today at 7 to meet with the Senator I was supposed to shadow, but I caught him at a bad time (he was suppose to train his debating team, so I didn’t shadow him after all. That wasn’t so bad, though I would have wanted to follow him around, but I [...]

First full day of JCI World Congress

I am so tired My feet hurt, I can barely walk, I am sleep deprived, but I am good I have succesfully gone through my first JCI World Congress full day here, in Antalya. I have attended, of course, the First Timers Briefing, where I had the good fortune of being picked – by lottery [...]
