web and business perspective.

-- BOXES AND ARROWS -- http://www.boxesandarrows.com/

Two good recent articles in the February issue:

1) Planning Your Future
A few years ago, a manager of mine gave me the
assignment to work on a five-year career plan. I had
never created a career plan before (not even to plot
out goals for the coming year), so I was completely
unprepared for how and why I should do this.

2) Value-Driven Intranet Design
Within most corporations, taking ownership of an
intranet is an unglamorous, exhausting, and thankless
job for a new intranet manager. But if approached with
the same rigor, discipline, and focus as any other
business initiative, the task can quickly become much
simpler.
