brick by brick

I'm living by the philosophy of the third little pig. In other words I'm builing my thesis brick by brick so that the big wolf wount be able to "huff and puff" it down. Today I got a better understanding of TRL - technology readiness level and how one can see these levels in relation to the organization. Cant wait to figure out what the next brick is - and where I will put it!

break through!


Finally! After weeks of frustration comes a break through! An email to my thesis advisors that I was about to switch topic - from organizational change and technology to leadership ideals. The switch was based on the frustration that I have written about on more than one occasion...I was lost, and leadership ideals seemed more concrete. The respons, though, was more positive than I ever could have imagined. Guess what? They wanted med to combine the leadership ideals with organizational change and technological innovation!! I'm sooooooo excited! The best part is that I can join the real scientists on a real project - my contribution will mean something!! I'm so happy! This calls for celebration! - maybe not champagne yet, although I can't think of any better time for champagne than now....

so lost...


Okey - I've come to realize that I'm lost... I really don't know what to do about this thesis! For some time now I have talked to everyone willing to talk to me - discussing my "theme", Organizational change and technology, trying to get some usefull comments to put in the puzzle I call my master thesis. I have been hoping that once I have collected some pieces for the puzzle the research question will appear. Well, so far it haven't...not as much as a hint! Man, this sucks! I'm so confused and frustrated! Right now this coming year seems like the shortest "forever" ever!!
