...University School of Information Studies Dexi Kong Success case #1: Yo, an English slang is now the name of a widely successful app. How it works? Nothing but sending “Yo” to your friends--Stupid but simple. The app, which debuted in April, has been downloaded two million times, according to Or Arbel, the chief executive. "We Yo with co-workers alerting them that a meeting is starting; I Yo with my wife as a 'hi' during a busy day, I Yo with friends, without any more expectation or need than a Yo back." -- Investor of Yo John Borthwick As much as $10 million. That is the valuation investors have assigned to the new smartphone app. ere is how it success, from my personal perspective. Usefulness is the success metric of any technology rather than capabilities. Say, we need alert someone of something. A phone call might be too intrusive or unnecessary, a text message is not noticeable enough, an email may be even more ignorable. Fortunately, now we have Yo, that could help us fill this gap, fill those tiny moments that we don’t want it to be ignored but would rather not bother others by making a phone call. Technology is meant to simplify people’s life. By using this app, we can save lots of words by simply saying “Yo”. Under certain context, it’s not necessary to “make things so clear”, both the massage deliver and receiver knows what’s going on. Most communication app can do what Yo can do, but Yo really help to simplify our communication and make us realize how...

A region’s size can create a volume of color that misrepresents the results from that region. WHO WOULD DO IT? Every four years, political reporters color election maps like this. Managers present global financial results by coloring in whole countries to represent a few cities’ performance. WHAT’S THE RIGHT WAY?

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. by Regina Fazio Maruca It was a great idea. The first of its kind. A series of ultrapremium health clubs located in major cities throughout the world. Targeted at senior executives too busy to eat. Frequent business travelers. Singles. People who just plain liked the extra attention and pampering and could afford to pay for the best. And it really had taken off. Since its flagship club had opened at one of New York City’s most prestigious addresses 15 years ago, Transition’s sales had doubled each year. The first location, a 25,000-square-foot facility with 14 full-time staff members, plus numerous sales associates, was almost maxed out at 2,300 members. Within its first two years of operation, Transition had opened similarly popular facilities in other major cities: Chicago, Washington, Los Angeles, London, Paris, Milan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Tokyo. Within five years, it was also operating through the five-star Printemps...

...innocent but by the color of his skin is convicted, or the learning of right from wrong by growing up in the world rather than sitting in school. These ideas of morality and ethics show the indignant and almost transforming ways of the kids living. As for Atticus finch he has morals already, his ideas to set examples for his children and be open minded is a quality that rubs off on his children. The kids throughout the book have to understand right from wrong and assess situations that make them have to grow up sooner than most. Starting with the kids they were the ones who over the course of the book were exposed to the most eye opening situations in which they themselves had to grow up to understand and also consider their ideas and thoughts based on what some other peoples situations are. Scout imp articular in the opening stages of her moral stage has an encounter with Walter Cunningham, “He ain't company, Cal, he's just a Cunningham” (26). Scouts ethics about people based on what they say, or how they act or even there living situation was wrong. Calpurnia is the character other than Atticus who teaches the kids right from wrong.

My amigo came up to me and noticed that I was feeling empty based on how I was not energized or playing basketball like I normally would do. “Hey, why suddenly blue?” asked Jerald. “The John I knew would always be on the basketball court and playing some basketball.” said Jerald. Yet, in my head, I could only think about how today was not a day to play basketball. I was tempted to learn a new sport, but there was no other sport to try. “You know, I’m getting bushed of basketball.” I replied. “Then go play a different sport, you can join me and my friends in a game of football.” Jerald suggested. “Football? That’s an extraordinary sport.” I thought to myself. “Sure dude, I’ll give it a shot.” I said with bliss. My comrade and I walked to the field. I was then was acquainted to the team. “Hey team!

CATES Growing Managers: Moving from Team Member to Team Leader op yo Melissa Richardson sat stunned in her office in Phoenix, Arizona, after a disastrous early July meeting with her boss, Beth Campbell. In March, Richardson had been the top Chicago salesperson and a high-potential candidate for management at ColorTech Greenhouses, Inc., a premium grower and distributor of annual and perennial flowers. Richardson remembered the call she had made to her mother, who still lived in her childhood home on the north side of Chicago. “Mom, I just got off the phone with the southwest regional sales manager in Los Angeles,” she had said. “They want me for the sales manager spot in Phoenix!” Richardson had been looking for an opportunity to move up at ColorTech, and her boss had recommended her for the promotion when the position opened. Thirty-two years old and single, Richardson had been excited to show her new team how to break into the top sales ranks the way she had done. tC But after only a few short months, she had failed to improve her team’s performance and felt like a liability on her regional manager’s watch list. Richardson wondered how things had gone so wrong so quickly and what she could do to fix them. About ColorTech Greenhouses, Inc. No ColorTech was a privately held supplier of annual and perennial flowers to big-box stores (large, no-frills, warehouse-like retail stores)...

...because they're babies that they aren't aware of what's going on. Wrong! They are very aware of their surroundings. Plus, they're so darn cute. I observed a baby girl that was twelve and a half weeks old. She was very wide eyed and constantly looking around. When I first arrived, she immediately made eye contact with me and smiled. I was happy to see that. She was sitting in a vibrating chair and just cooing to herself. Her mom put the show 'Yo Gabba Gabba' on the television and the baby girl actually watched. When the strange creatures on the television would laugh, or sing, the baby girl's eyes got very wide.She would also kick over and over again in excitement. Finally, after about twenty minutes, she finally lost interest and started crying. As soon as she started crying, her mom immediately picked her up and began rocking her. The baby then grabbed a chunk of her mom's hair and pulled down. Her mom made this- ouch, that hurt-face and then set baby in her swing while she went to prepare her daughter's bottle. Baby then continued to cry and lick her lips, signaling for food. She also kept stretching her legs out and kicking over and over again and raising her head up as if she was looking for her mom. Her mom dropped something in the kitchen and baby girl's eyes got really wide and she jumped, therefore making her cry even harder. About 5 minutes later her mother came in to the living room (where baby an I were), picked her up, put a bib on, and began feeding the bottle...
