		<description><![CDATA[One of Terry Pratchett&#8217;s characters has a wonderful line,something like: ’walk a mile in your enemy&#8217;s shoes. That way,you&#8217;re a mile away and they have no shoes&#8217;! Maybe its just me, but I often find myself on the phone to the bank,or dealing with a utility company, or getting to grips with some new gadget [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Many of us don&#8217;t like like looking at organisational and project culture because we believe it&#8217;s hard to understand, not clear why it&#8217;s important, and, well, touchy-feely. Actually it&#8217;s the other way round: it&#8217;s pretty easy to spot and start to understand if you just look at the reality of the organisation around you: who [...]

		<description><![CDATA[It can be amazing to look at a picture, hear some music or see a film and wonder at how people get their ideas AND do something with them. And every now and then you might come across a technique you can borrow when you need a way to come up with a new idea. [...]

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve probably heard the advice that the first step in solving a problem is to define it clearly. But therein lies a risk: the way you define a problem may limit where you look for a solution. A classic example of this comes from architecture: ask someone to design a door and that&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll [...]
