So.. lets be some serious here in the blog after some really emotional writings ...
This blog is my private blog and does not reflect any of my employees or colleagues way of working, thínking or acting. I just want to remind you about that.
Neither I will promote my company as the best, profitable and customer oriented company in the Nordic and Baltic area, as I guess already know it, and its a fact,,,
And neither will I tell You that highly skilled resources outside the bank contact me for being employed in the company, due to good reputation regarding both interesting technologies and also very much focus on people development valuebased leadership, lets say good management.
I guess you already have understood that as well.. so..
Of course I have a golden box of experiences, stories, best practices and you name it from my company to tell.
If you ever meet me you will definatley be aware of me being dead serious about my work, acting and loyalty to my company. No doubt. I would never ever had stay for so long if it was not the case. Some people reacted to my Micro Management blog post before... but regarding that... yes yes. I still think it is so bad and I truly hope that the manager reads it and see it as a gift.
I will comment some of my daily it development-bank manager experiences here in the blog as well, and I both wish and want to write even more, that is for shure, but I have to be aware of what to tell you, from a selfish point of view...some of it is worth a lot...
On the other hand, I can tell you what ever I want regarding myself and my private living, that is also for shure. But I guess I have to be aware there as well.
Btw, did you know that I truly dreamt about being a journalist or a doctor when I was a child? The Journalist dream is maybe still there and that is why I like writing, and just writing here all the time.
Regarding writings, have had some comments here on the blog regarding loyalty, openness and other small little details about being cynical as well, ... so what to comment on that?
To be cynical and ironic is maybe two great sence of humours to me. Some people hate it and some love it. My father typically, he could never ever understand being ironic..oh my good, you can imagine how many good laughs I had, and how many he did not have...
My mind, heart and brain is open and honest (mostly) so please trust what I am writing, I am very honest in here to be honest. And if you dont like it, just dont like it, and stop reading, it is ok.
Btw, I can recommend you one blog here regarding being serious. One blogger I truly wish all the best since he is same dead serious as I am in my professional life.
I also want to mention and promote the bloggers lovely comment here in February, John Santaferraro , which to me is a great mindset...
"" --- I’ve heard 100 stories where business intelligence helps companies make a dollar. I’ve only heard a handful of stories where intelligence makes a difference....""
John, I will never forget that statement, you just did hit so many people with that comment and made us leave the room and the conference with an open attitude for a further win-win situation and a great feeling of happiness. Great

Ok, Business Intelligence or not in this blog ?.well at least a comment today regarding BI.. and make a difference?? yes, that is what my blogging is about. To get you into my mindset and daily life and maybe get some input or make a difference... in one or another way.
To gather a lot of data from a very busy, high performing manager perspective can definately be seen as some female intelligence...
And remember, dont incapsulate your data to hard and complicated, that means challenge for further integrations and implementations.
Monday and only 4 weeks to some smaller brilliant vacation... how nice.
Love/
Anna

Hey that was a cool post. Due to its complex nature, very less information is available on Business Intelligence. A simple Google search gave me around 45,000 results, most of them failing to meet my expectation of a comprehensive coverage of the subject.
One of the useful one, though was http://blog.maia-intelligence.com/ . The information here was extensive, and was explained in clear and concise language. Seems they also have their own BI products. This, although being a good reference point, my search is far from over. If you can suggest me another place where I can find relevant information on Business Intelligence, will be good!
Hi Anna,
Thank you so much for the kind mentions. It was a pleasure to meet you in Amsterdam. We have to catch up sometime and talk about how this concept of "intelligence that makes a difference" is starting to spread. Great blog too! It's always great to see real people behind their professions. You do that well...
Cheers,
John
