How To Become CIO

bowojoey — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 11:20:41 +0000

A friend of mine, Joey Smith, has developed a self-study course for aspiring CIOs, and he’s got an audioconference interview lined up with a high-end recruiter to discuss the qualifications for a CIO. Joey and I were talking about this the other day, and I told him that I’m a bit concerned that aspiring CIOs are looking for a “silver bullet,” a magic solution that they can easily apply and thereby instantly qualify to be a highly paid CIO.

The real world isn’t like that. Many years ago I had an employee who wanted to be promoted to a higher level position, and he kept telling me that if I promoted him to the higher level then he would show me that he can perform at that higher level. My answer to him was always the same: show me that you can be a star in your current position, and demonstrate some of the skills that go along with the higher level position, and I’ll promote you. But the work comes first – not afterward.

The same thing applies to aspiring CIOs. If you demonstrate the capabilities that a CIO needs, and if you get some proven business successes under your belt, then you can qualify for a CIO position in your current company, or you can convince a CIO recruiter that you can do the job elsewhere. But you must have the successes first. That’s what recruiters are looking for – proven success stories – not people who have the potential to succeed.

Eight Qualifications for a CIO
Here’s my own list of qualifications that you’ll need to develop to become a CIO. First, you need the same kind of skills that are required for any senior executive position:

1. The ability to inspire confidence and trust. Some call this “poise;” others call it “charisma.” It’s a quality that’s hard to describe, and even more difficult to develop and achieve. It comes from experience, self-confidence, self-reliance, and knowing that you’re going to be successful at anything you attempt. And what’s more important, you make others know – without you telling them – that you’ll be successful at anything you attempt.

2. The ability to communicate clearly, succinctly, and emotionally to any audience, whether it’s stockholders, investors, your board of directors, or an entry-level clerical person. When I use the word “emotionally” I mean that the communication has to occur at multiple levels. At the surface the communication is intellectual, conveying facts. But at a lower level there’s a communication that makes the person want to agree and comply. At this lower level you’re doing more than communicating – you’re motivating and inspiring.

You may have noticed that the two skills I’ve mentioned thus far are the same abilities that politicians need. That’s true, but if these are the only skills you have, then you may find yourself described as an “empty suit,” and you’ll certainly never be successful at an executive position. So we need to add a conscience and a belief system:

3. Consistent, demonstrated ethical behavior. You know what’s right – for yourself, for your organization, for your company, and for your country and the world – and your actions consistently demonstrate that you want to move things in the right direction.

With these first three qualifications we now have an ethical politician, but we need an agenda.

4. Intelligence and wisdom. Intelligence to comprehend and truly understand what needs to be done. Wisdom to know what shouldn’t be done, and to understand the best way to accomplish things.

This fourth qualification has ruled out most politicians, so we’re beginning to zero in on good executives.

5. Good judgment. Knowing the time and place to say or do what needs to be said or done. Good judgment comes from experience. Unfortunately, experience comes from bad judgment – either your own or the bad judgment of others. The only way to get good judgment is to learn from your mistakes and from the mistakes of others.

6. Recognition of your own limitations. This might seem to contradict Skill #1, in which I said that you know you’re going to be successful at anything you attempt. But if you truly know your own limitations, then you won’t attempt something that’s beyond your capabilities. You’ll constantly extend your limits, but you know the difference between being aggressive and being foolhardy.

7. Motivation to be a CIO in spite of all of the responsibilities and headaches that come with the job. If you don’t live and breathe to be a CIO, then you probably won’t get there.

8. A strong interest in applying technology to improve the business. You probably wondered when I would mention technology. But note the words I used in describing this skill. A successful CIO doesn’t have to be a technology expert, and in fact most CIO’s aren’t technology experts. People who are highly motivated to become technology experts typically don’t have the other seven skills. Some CIO’s may have come from a technology background, but if they were technology experts in their past, they’ve now left that skill behind them.

How Do You Become a CIO?
First, be realistic. Do you have the eight qualifications I’ve listed? If not, then can you get there at some point? Some of the qualifications can be developed over time, but I believe that some of these qualifications are a result of who we are – our basic personality type. There are some people who will never be a CIO, and that’s not a bad thing. What is a bad thing, however, is seeing some of these people deceiving themselves into believing that they can overcome insurmountable obstacles. They obviously don’t have skill #6, and it’s unfortunate that these people won’t find happiness until they recognize their own limitations and focus on things that truly do make them happy.

But let’s say for the sake of argument that you do possess all eight of these skills, or you’re close to possessing them. What do you do next? Recognize that having the skills themselves doesn’t make you a CIO; you have to create business successes to be recognized for what you are. And I emphasize the word “business;” technology successes don’t get you the recognition until those technology successes translate into specific measurable monetary business success. Use technology to make your company a star (like eBay), or to make your company more competitive (like Wal-Mart). Use your technology to improve productivity (like UPS) or to change an industry (like CheckFree). Technology leaders usually aren’t leaders of technology – they’re leaders in the use of technology for business purposes.

You don’t have to start at the top, and in fact no one does. You can apply CIO skills to your job as an IT project leader or as a department manager, or even as a programmer-analyst. But you have to remember that CIO success comes from business success, and business success comes from thinking from your customers’ viewpoint.

How do you become a CIO? It’s not a leap – it’s just one more step in a continuing career progression of meeting and exceeding business needs.

Chat di Ponsel Nokia Serie 60

bowojoey — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 10:06:56 +0000

Halo lama gak posting jurnal. Kangen gak sih ? hehehe….
Kali ini aku mau bagi dikit info menarik buat para jempolers yg suka utak atik HaPe. Especially buat yg punya hp Nokia Serie 60 (6600,3250,6630,N70 dan sepupu2nya)
*yg pake sony ericsson,samsung de el el a je er … gak usah protes !*

Mulai skrg gw bakal review aplikasi2 yg bisa bikin kamu tambah lengket ama hp kesayanganmu =) Nah… skrg gw bakal kasi info gimana caranya biar bisa Chat di HP ! Yeah.. tul ! Kamu gak salah baca =) Asal hp kamu sudah terkoneksi internet lewat GPRS, maka kamu sudah sahih untuk lanjutkan membaca artikel ini.
*yg blom terkoneksi… gak ada salahnya kan nambah2 ilmu*

OK, aplikasi pertama dan must have (!) di dunia perchattingan HP adalah Agile Messenger. Software buatan perusahaan Agile ini bisa dibilang paling komplit *pake telor kale* Bisa konek ICQ, AOL,Google,MSN & Yahoo pada saat yg bersamaan ! Donlod aja symbian installernya di www.agilemobile.com, pilih jenis installer sesuai dgn tipe hp kamu. Contohnya untuk N6630, gw pake AgileMessengerSeries60_V2-3.75.sis. What ?? Cara installnya masih gak tau ? Ya masukin aja file SIS itu ke memori ponsel lewat gigi biru *bluetooth* , infrared, kabel data, ato card reader. Open aja file itu pake File Manager trus ikutin langkah2 petunjuk instalasinya.

Nah… kalo sudah terinstal trus open Agile Messenger, tampilannya spt pic dibawah ini. Pilih aja jenis IM service yg biasa kamu pake, trus pilih GPRS access point provider selularmu. Then tinggal tekan Connect, VOILA….. selamat chat !

*OK2….. ini berita buruknya*
Agile Messenger bukan aplikasi gratis, cuma Free Trial selama 7 hari. Setelah itu kita diwajibkan bayar Rp 10 rb rupiah per bulan yg di sunat langsung dari pulsa =( Selain itu, kita juga mesti bayar pulsa GPRS. Kalo Simpati tarifnya Rp 30 / kb. Atau kurang lebih Rp 3 rb – 4 rb per jam, itupun tergantung seberapa giras-nya kamu chatting =P
*kalo saya 1/2 jam aja jempol dah loyo*
Tapi untungnya ada fasilitas Traffic Counter, jadi bisa liat sudah tekor brp kilobyte.

Berita baiknya -sekaligus review app. kedua : Selain Agile Messenger, ada aplikasi chat yg gratis. Namanya IM+. Gak perlu register. Tapi…. *nah kan…ada tapi-nya!* interface dari IM+ tidak begitu intuitif sehingga tidak memberi kelelusaan untuk melakukan manuver2 jempol. Ya sebenarnya itu cuma masalah kebiasaan. Dan… cacat yg paling fatal dari IM+ yaitu bisa disconnect kalo ada SMS atau Incoming Call.

TIPS Chatting di HP :
1. Bikin ID baru yg isinya cuma org2 penting *cewe2 ajah*, pasalnya makin banyak contact yg diload waktu connect, otomatis waktu koneksi makin lama & melahap lebih banyak kilobyte.
2. Invisible, biar gak diajak chat byk orang. Berusahalah menjadi rekan chat yg monogami =)
3. Jangan ketik pendek2. Ketiklah sekali yg panjang kayak kereta api hehehe… Sending message2 pendek terbukti boros kilobyte.

Pengen chat pake hp tapi gak mau jempol jadi kriting kayak cabe ? Sambungin aja hp lo ke PC, gimana caranya ? Sabar dong say… Tunggu aja di posting berikutnya : PC-Cellphone Remoting, ini preview screenshotnya …. CU & GBU.

Internal Management processes

Proses manajemen internal didalamnya terdapat Rekruitmen gawai, pelatihan pertukaran informasi aplikasi elektronik dan sejenisnya.

Apakah Internet Economy sama dengan E Commerce dan E Bussines

Internet Ekonomi mencetuskan konsep e comerce dan e bussines sehingga e comerse dan e bussines merupakan bagian dari Internet ekonomi.

Dapat diartikan Internet ekonomi merupkan setiap aktifitas ekonomi yang menggunakan jaringan kerja / network dan terhubung dalam internet.

Hal tersebut membuat tiga bagian besar dalm internet ekonomi yaitu :
1. Physical Infrastruktur (ICT) Infrastruktur

2. Bussines Infrastruktur

3. Komersil

BIOMETRIC

bowojoey — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 05:39:43 +0000

Apakah Biometric

BioMetrik berasal dari bahasa yunani bios – yang berarti hidup metros yang berarti mengukur.

Biometrik adalah metode untuk mengidentifikasi atau mengenali seseorang berdasarkan karakteristik fisik atau perilakunya.

Karakteristik Biometrik

- Unik (UNIQUE)

Biometrik dikatakan unik karena tidak ada setiap manusia nyang memiliki cirri biometric yang sama ? sidik jari yang sama

- Permanent

Biometrik melekat disetiap manusia secara permanent sampai manisia itu mati

- Universal

Biometrik dimiliki oleh setiap manusia / semua manusia

Dalam perkembangan nya biometric dapat biasanya digunakan dalam area security (keamanan) yang bersifat personal. Makanya, teknologi biometrik itu punya keunggulan sifat yang relatif tidak bisa dihilangkan, dilupakan, atau dipindahkan dari satu orang ke orang lain. Pendeknya, sulit ditiru atau dipalsukan.

Teknologi Biometric

Metode Mengenali seseorang berdasarkan karakter fisik ataupun perilakunya berbasiskan Komputer

Sejarah Biomerik

Sebenarnya biometric bukan teknologi baru karena sebelum biometric di gunakan secara diital secara manual pun biometric sudah digunakan dengan adanya tandatangan dengan menggunakan cap jempol pada jaman dahulu,Setelah itu biometriik dikembangkan dengan menggunakan komputerisasi sehingga perkembangaannya begitu pesat

Pada era setelah perang dunia ke II penelitian militer amerika menemukan biometric voice recognition yang digunakan untuk mengenali suara pilot pesawat tempur pada saat itu Pada tahun 1960 Federal Birou Intelegen (USA) Menenmukan Metode pengenalan sidik jari Automate Fingerprint Identification Sistem (AFIS) untuk mengenali dan menganalisa sidik jari tanpa menggunakan sensor ,Pada masa itu teknologi biometric masih mahal dan belum digunakan oleh banyak orang, Setelah mulai ditemukannya sensor biometric tahun 1999 maka peralatan biometric menjadi murah dan memungkinkan digunakan banyak orang seperti digunakan untuk system absensi sidik jari sidik jari sebagai key .

Setelah teknologi sensor biometric ditemukan maka perkembangan biometric sangat cepat yang semulla hanya bias dikenali dengan ciri fisik dan suara maka setelah harga sensor murah biometric berkembang pada sensor cara berjalan, pengenalan retina mata,irish , dan sampai pada pengenalan DNA .

Artinya teknologi biometric dapat mengenali manusia sampai pda tingkat sekecil DNA.

Bagai mana cara mengenali dengan biometric.

Untuk Beberapa system biometric cara mengenalai dan cara kerjanya hampir sama biasanya perbedaan hanya terdapat pada sensornya.

Secara teknis :

Pengenalan biometric seseorang melalui beberapa tahap antara lain :

- Data Collection (Pengambilan Data )

- Signal Prosesing ( Pemrosesan sinyal gambar digital)

- Matching (Pencocokan)

- Dessicion (Pengambilan Keputusan)

- Storage ( Penyimpanan)

Data Collection

Pengambilan data cirri fisik ataupun Prilaku

Pada tahapan ini diaambil oleh sensor

Signal Prosesing.

Pemrosesan sinyal yang diambil oleh sensor

Pencocokan

Proses pencocokan dari data yang diambil sensor dengan yang ada di database

Penyimpanan.

Penyimpanan data identitas yang diambil seebagai data seseorang untuk di cocokan
