companies, in order for those that discriminate
by sex to see their accounts and results below
those that choose the best people
independently of sex or other characteristics “
You can also have mixed sparring groups but
sometimes it is difficult

22. 13. HOWARD AND NASH’S MODEL JUGGLING
SUCCESS PROCESS. FAMILY JUGGLERS
13. HOWARD AND NASH’S MODEL JUGGLING SUCCESS PROCESS. FAMILY JUGGLERS
1. Happiness, feelings of pleasure or contentment about your life
2. Significance, accomplishments that compare favorably against similar goals others
have strived for
3. Achievement, the sense that you've made a positive impact on people you care about
4. Legacy a way to establish your values or accomplishments so as to help others find
future success
Their conclusion is that 'it is not about balance' and it is not about maximization. It is about a
juggling process that starts young and continues throughout one's life. The core
drivers for most of us create warnings when life becomes too focused on a single
domain of success. On the other hand, we all wince when we see others with whom we
identify getting something we could have had .
People who achieve lasting success, the authors learned, tend to rely on a kaleidoscope
strategy to structure their aspirations and activities. You have to learn how to
build your own kaleidoscope
These are the four dimensions of success one needs to consider, according to professor
Howard Stevenson, co-author (with Laura Nash) of Just Enough
"Success has always been an American preoccupation, but the definition of success takes on
a new urgency today, when every conventional measure of success seems to have a
faster burn rate than ever before," say Laura Nash and Howard Stevenson.

24. 14. ideas4all.com
14. ideas4all.com
ideas4all (www.ideas4all.com) is a vertical social network which offers a new way of
sharing ideas and innovation.
A unique and global space to encourage innovation, as well as the exchange and transference of
knowledge between anyone and for anyone. ideas4all is a community for people with simple or
sophisticated ideas they want to share. Users can find solutions to problems, or surf through
other people's ideas and find the inspiration they were looking for. A place where companies and
institutions can access original ideas from people to whom they would normally have no access.
ideas4all hopes to avoid ideas are wasted for lack of a space where they can be shared, while
democratizing the estimation of these ideas.
Market research carried out in June 2008 by TNS Sofres (1,200 individuals) showed there was a
market opportunity: 85% of internet users claimed to have ideas that were wasted because they
had no place where they could share or channel them. After visiting ideas4all, 85% confirmed they
intended to use the website, and 75% indicated they would submit ideas.
Since its launch on July 15th 2008, ideas4all has grown very quickly, proving the need for
such a website truly existed: over 28,000 ideas submitted; over 3 million visits, over 6.8
million pages viewed; registered users from 140 different countries, and over 3,200 cities. The
launch was a great success in Spain, Latin-america and India, which have contributed the most
ideas until now. 75% of users submitting ideas use the Creative Commons license, through which
they waive all rights related to their idea, except for its authorship, proving that sharing is a far
greater motivation than making money.
25. 15. THE NEW NETWORKS. WE ALL NEED TO LEARN
THIS LANGUAGE
New trends of Product /Services
Valuation, Creativity and Collaborative Participation
People and consumers do not want that others value and design their
favorite products. They want to do that themselves because they
are the users and know better, they publish satisfaction or not reviews
in blogs , produce videos in YouTube, talk on twitter, and their votes
and polls are all over the place
Likely they don’t accept distribution channels imposed to them they
want to have alternatives to chose including digital online
A clear example is music industry and how it has experienced a
metamorphosis into a different industry at a very high speed MySpace,
Pandora, Spotyfy, Uplaya. MySpace micro financing of songs by
popular votes
The success of the disintermediation of comparative pricing sites .
An example of UK and car insurance industry With Gocompare y
Moneysupermarket etc
Paulo Coelho decided to put its own book for free on the web
without his Publishers agreement. Now publisher is happy and dropped
legal claim because sales went significantly up, they liked the book
