Frederick Winslow Taylor (1856 – 1915) is considered the father of scientific management and first management consultant. He pioneered methods engineering and was the first to analyze work in detail and set them up as rational operations for efficiency. His innovative methods made workers in the West and Japan much wealthier than workers under Soviet-style [...]

Albert Einstein moved physical science from the cause-and-effect and deterministic mode of Isaac Newton into the probabilistic with his four breakthrough 1905 papers, the first one on photoelectric properties of which he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics. In so doing he extended scientific knowledge from earth-centric, as is the state of the [...]

The life cycle of firms conform to that of its underlying product, service or innovation. This life cycle follows the typical curve shown at left (Chart credit: Wikipedia). This same curve presented cumulatively is an S-curve with four identifiable stages: start-up, hypergrowth, maturity, and decline. These stages roughly correspond to the four technology phases. Management [...]

Craig Ventner, who first mapped the human genome, achieved another first. His research team at the J. Craig Ventner Institute (JCVI) assembled the first self-replicating synthetic bacterial cell. The discovery is path-breaking as it can lead to new products like “advanced biofuels, clean water technology, and new vaccines.” Other than the products, the experimental and [...]

This hardy Filipino-fabricated machine is cause for cheer I could hardly contain my excitement at seeing a Filipino-fabricated rotary filler being set up yesterday – a working product from the minuscule Philippine machinery industry is on the ground before me! YAY! as my young friends shout. And LOL with that. Fighting against economic policies like [...]

Res 953 was enacted en banc on 12.22.09 as a complete plan Minute Resolution 953 was promulgated one week before the first Res 8739 General Instructions for the Board of Election Inspectors (GI). If, implemented fully, it can greatly minimize congestion from clustering. Yet, it was not made part of that first GI for the [...]

Observing elections is a vocation and profession. Vignettes. IFES and NDI. Vignette 1. I first met Butch Abad of the Liberal Party when he saw us off to Danao, then dangerous Ramon Durano country, for the snap elections in 1985. Then, we were all observers with NAMFREL. So lately, I found his transformation to traditional [...]

Comelec proactively and innovatively designs VAC to help manage congestion The Comelec inserted a new provision – a really creative one – in the updated Res 8786 to create a Voters Assistance Center (VAC) in each school to help manage congestion that is the main consequence of clustering. In this automated election, congestion from clustering [...]

Difficult hurdles for tech-enabled social innovation in the Philippines Still, the benefits in making wholesale cheating difficult – the main purpose for automating counting and canvassing in this election – and getting the results quicker for the national officials may be well worth the hard work. For me, the most emblematic story on the management [...]
