Banished Words for 2012

Lake Superior State University (LSSU) released its amazing 37th annual “List of Words Banished from the Queen’s English for Misuse, Overuse and General Uselessness”.

Do aliens go invisible by 'going green'?
9 Feb 2012 | 11:24 amAs we discover more and more planets around other stars, the Fermi Paradox is becoming, well, more paradoxical. The Fermi Paradox simply asks the question "where are they?" Our Milky Way galaxy is so big and so old -- and we are estimated to be accompanied by at least 100 billion planets -- that aliens should have visited us by now. Instead, when we peruse the heavens, we are faced with the Great Silence, which is one of the biggest challenges to modern astronomy. Full story at Discovery News.

Mysterious sounds reported around the world
9 Feb 2012 | 11:23 amPeople around the world have reported hearing strange sounds from the skies over the past month. Sometimes they describe it as a hum or low rumble; other times it’s a whine, thump, or even a melody. Often the sounds have been recorded and posted online, fueling rumors and conspiracy theories. One blogger wrote, "either the world is ending, aliens are landing or everyone is getting hoaxed. Or, possibly, there’s an actual scientific explanation for the mass amount of YouTube videos capturing bizarre sounds that are being heard around the globe. Are we witnessing the beginning of a… -

The Art of Storytelling
8 Jan 2012 | 2:55 pmThe abstract for ‘When Consumers and Brands Talk: Storytelling Theory and Research in Psychology and Marketing’ caught my eye: Storytelling is pervasive through life. Much information is stored, indexed, and retrieved in the form of stories. Although lectures tend to put people to sleep, stories move them to action. People relate to each other in terms of stories—products and brands often play both central and peripheral roles in their stories. My background in cognitive science supports the idea people remember in terms of stories, while our transactive memory lives in Google. Being… -
Can You Prevent or Cure a Hangover?
1 Jan 2012 | 4:06 pmSince we’ve just gone through the season of excess, I thought I’d do some Web sleuthing to determine alcohol’s economic impact on society. Estimates vary dramatically but a report from the reputable National Institute of Health (NIH) suggests the impact in the U.S. could be more than $100B annually. Regardless of the exact number, the line of thought leads to an intriguing New Year’s day speculation: Can you prevent or cure a hangover? Of course, legends abound. Conventional wisdom suggests lots of water and ibuprofen either before or after drinking. I had a college… -
The One-Eyed Man Is King
11 Dec 2011 | 7:57 amMy first real job was a software developer in a start-up that built massively-parallel supercomputers; the machines had up to 16K processors and handled very large datasets. While the company was staffed with seasoned hardware types, many of us software developers were relatively inexperienced. Not wanting to admit our greenness, we usually tried to solve problems on our own rather than asking the more senior staff. One newbie was a little more experienced than the rest and, when bestowing his opinion on us, would invariably exclaim: In regione caecorum rex est luscus If you’re not… -
The Nocebo Effect is Serious Medicine
4 Dec 2011 | 5:53 pmA decade ago I read an intriguing article entitled “The Nocebo Effect: Placebo’s Evil Twin” which argued a patient’s pessimistic attitude could have negative consequences on their health. Research showed that patients who were warned of gastrointestinal side effects from repeated use of aspirin were almost three times as likely to exhibit the side effects as those who were not warned. In the intervening years, I’ve seen other scattered reports that a patient’s anxiety around a disease can lead to a hastened death, even when medicine suggests the patient should…

Feel free to download it and use it as inspiration. And if you’re working with a partner, you can use the free Word Web App to stay in sync.

Balancing Compliance with Vision
7 Feb 2012 | 6:06 amOne of the most challenging endeavors for mid market leaders is to clearly and passionately communicate the vision for their company or project. This is especially true if it has been a while since you’ve decided to share your vision or, as is the case with a number of companies these days, the recent past has been a struggle and you may have gotten sloppy. Maybe earnings are down, revenues are flat and the pipeline for new projects is a bit thin. Perhaps you were able to cover up lousy program management practices of the past with positive news on growth. Maybe the… -
The Psycho-path to Success?
21 Jan 2012 | 7:50 amOne of my favorite Warren Buffet quotes is "In looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence, and energy. And if they don't have the first, the other two will kill you." This quote was the first thing I thought of after reading Kevin Voigt’s article in CNN International’s Business section titled “Bad bosses: The psycho-path to success.” Beyond a terrific title, the article forces us to think about the values our company enforces when making hires and promotions. Fortunately, I’ve only had on psycho-path boss… -

That means people are going to be asked to do specific things and you're going to seed those actions with your guiding team. Specific actions to empower people and get them involved. It's one thing that they're emotionally connected. They made the emotional connection initially, but now they need to turn that emotion into action. Specific… -

Are Successful People Nice?
9 Feb 2012 | 12:23 pmSince Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence, we've recognized the importance of tuning into social and emotional factors in the workplace. But many popular depictions of the workplace don't show any evidence of that sensitivity. Mad Men, Wall Street, and others impress that in business, only the strong survive. But emotional intelligence implies that successful leaders should be nice. And while being nice may have social benefits, does it pay? The key is in how agreeable you are. Timothy Judge, Beth Livingston, and Charlice Hurst examined this trait in a paper [PDF] in the Journal of… -
Managing the "Crazy Ideas" Conundrum
9 Feb 2012 | 11:49 amThe most painfully awkward debates I hear in ostensibly innovative organizations revolve around "crazy ideas." When unexpected challenges arise, what ideas are acceptably crazy? Which ideas are too crazy? Which ideas are so crazy that no one looks at or listens to their champions quite the same way ever again? Consequently, top management teams tend to be the Goldilocks of crazy: They don't want insane, and they don't need conventional; they want their craziness to be "just right." Defining those crazy zones is one of the most difficult but more important cultural decisions innovation… -

Maybe you have a project with no deadline, like my screenplay. Or maybe you have a deadline that's months away — like preparing a speech, developing a business plan, or designing a training program. Perhaps you have a habit of procrastinating on projects with… -

The Case of the Rolling Stone (that Gathers No Moss) Resume
9 Feb 2012 | 7:30 amWhat would you think if a job candidate sent you a resume listing six jobs held in the last four years? Some of you would probably have an instinctively negative reaction: "This is someone who can't make up her mind or settle down — probably a flake. In 'my day' everyone knew that you couldn't change jobs more often than once every two years." Or would you have a more sympathetic interpretation? Perhaps that this is evidence of a candidate who is willing to take risks and seek out new opportunities? Resumes must be truthful — if you've had six jobs in four years, you need to say…
