Interviewing my collaborators at work


I am in this part of year when one must evaluate and, as a result of that, interview every person of my team. Every time this team gets even greater, so I needed to find out a way to reduce time (I am pretty much focused on high performance in every task in my job).
Creatting a pattern, so that every interview is consistent with the other ones could be a way to simplify, nevertheless every interview is unique, because every person and her work are unique as well.
Hereby it is the model I wrote on the plane in order to get these interviews´ framework.
Excuses in advance because it is in Spanish, in the following posts I will publish it up in English, if you are interested in the content as well.

Analyzing two alternatives



Whenever I have to decide between to alternatives, I use Mindmapping as a way to get a visual clue about the possibilities, pros and cons, in order to achieve a consistent decission, from different perspectives.
This weekend I have been involved in such a situation about changing the house where a friend of mine lives in.

A mindmapping reflection

During these weeks I have a reflection in my head related to mindmapping.
Is mindmapping either a suitable tool for structured minds (optimizing menthal processes outcomes) or a tool helping to get minds structured?
I think there is not one answer and three ones are possible depending on the case and the use.
For an structured mind can be a suitable tool to get deeper on different kinds of analysis that with any other format could be achieved.
For a pseudo-chaotic mind could be a great tool to get further taking the most out and to take this chaos far beyond to a consistant conclusion.
For same type of minds in different moments the two ansmwers could be possible enough.

Christmas Lottery


Reaching this time of the year, I usually recover a traditional mindmapping use, specially suitable to a fast determination of results.
The mindmapping use does not have any influence in the final result, for sure!!

Surfing the web I had the opporunity to watch this fantastic map from Paul Foreman. What can I say about it? To me it´s just great.

Mindjet Mindmanager 8


Hi all.
I am lately trying to get the most out of the new Mindjet Mindmanager 8.
I am gratefully impressed about the new features. Currenly I am testing them and applying on my professional and personal life.
I think it is another step forward avoiding restrictions when one compares software made maps and hand-drawn ones, with this new version one gets more flexibility, more possibilities to boost up productivity.
I am also impressed about Web Services and I am trying to investigate how to generate more on that, any help or information is welcome.
