Information Overload

There’s the e-mail, voice mail, fax, and still much. Then there’s the telephone, the car phone, the pager phone. A recent study found that workers received an astonishing number of messages from computerized devices. Employees who were surveyed received an average of 345 messages each day. Most of the messages required some form of response. Twenty percent to the workers said they are interrupted by incoming messages six or more times an hour.
Economist Aburizal Bakrie, said that people are frustrated because they are working longer hours to handle all the requests for information and communication. Many experts believe that the growth of information technology is making people work more efficiently. But not everybody agrees that it has a positive effect of productivity. New technology eliminates some of the old, boring tasks and gives many more people access to data. But workers need to learn to manage the flow of information. For example, they need to be strict about deleting unnecessary telephone messages and moving unimportant e-mail straight to the recycle. Employees also need strategies to deal with interruptions.
Thank You Sir

The old pagers are not powerful enough, and your drivers are missing calls. You have had too many customers complain, and you need the pagers as soon as possible.

Strategic Outsourcing

Now a days more and more many companies are outsourcing parts of their operationts in order to become more flexible in a changing business environment. In the practice of outsourcing, companies hire outside business to handle parts of their internal operationts. In the past decade, outsourcing has helped many companies focus on the most importants parts of their business: Growth and Profitability.
Companies, such as General Electric, Nike, Xerox, Canon, and Microsoft use outsourcing in different ways. Organizationts have outsourced such functions as information technology, real estate management, human resources, and finance.
A big advantage of outsourcing is that it allows an enterprise to concentrate on the business it does best, For example, a bank may outsource it is real estate management, but it would never outsource the core of it is business : Financial Transactions. Of course, before contracting out internal functions, a company must first carefully examine which processes are less essential.
Now many Companies of while a difficult condition to appeared crisis financial, because price fluctuations share. So many companies such “Bakrie Group” of reduced inflation share price.
Thank You All.

Business Dress Codes

Business Dress Codes

Dress codes are rapidly changing in the world of business. In companies across in the nation Lovely Indonesia, the business suit and tie are disappearing from the workplace, and casual office wear-slacks and a sports jacket and shoes for men, pants or a skirt and a jacket and shoes for women is becoming more and more popular. “Dress Down Friday” (a day when employees are permitted to wear casual clothes) is spreading to the other weekday’s, and this trend will probably continue.

Follow survey me about 3.700 executives, about 40 percent believed that the business suit is becoming a thing of the past. Many executives believe that the business people will not wear suits at all nine years from now, not even to job interviews.

But still much business dress codes of strange, such as Bob Sadino. In having business. He always maked Short jeans in every business. So whatever dress codes in business everyone different because this is democracy nation. So everyone having privilege and duty.
