Week 6: CMPS 598 Co. In Transition

It's week 6 now. CMPS 598 Co. has passed the initial "chaotic" stage. We have discussed topics such as e-commerce, business planning and mind maps, blue ocean strategy, needs analysis and evaluation. We have had seminars on interesting topics of Cloud Computing, Web Marketing and Q & A Websites. 8 innovative ideas have been developed in the format of mind maps, 60+ blog articles have been written.

After we have through this, (not really easy) process, now, what I see is a quite different team. Compare to the one that we had six weeks ago, this team is much stronger and capable, as they are more confident about themselves, understand more about each other; they have more experience on how to be innovative; they are willing to work hard toward their goal.

We are now transiting to the second stage. In this stage, students will be working in small groups and have some competition. Now, not only Innovation is important, effective collaboration and leadership also become critical.

Lets work together and create something new and valuable!!!
