PEOPLE IN PERSON RESPONDED TO HULKS ARTICLE ON THE CORPORATE CONUNDRUM INSTEAD OF POSTING ON THE SITE!
FEEDBACK HAS NOW LED TO HULK FIRST PART 2 ON EXISTING ARTICLE!
HULK IS FEELING Q AND A STYLE THIS TIME!
Q:WE HAVE "SOMETHING" THAT WAS GREAT ON THE FIRST ITERATION BUT BAD ON THE SECOND! WHAT DID WE DO WRONG!
A: HMMM COULD BE A MYRIAD OF THINGS! WAS THE ORIGINAL "SOMETHING" MORE FUN TO PLAY? WAS THEIR ELEMENTS THAT HAD BEEN TWEAKED?!?
HULK KNOWS FROM EXPERIENCE ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS BOTH IN THE GAME INDUSTRY AND THE EVERYDAY LIFE THAT NOT ALL CHANGE IS A GOOD THING!
AT HULKS COLLEGE SEVERAL GROUPS WENT FROM HAVING LARGE ATTENDANCE AND SENSE OF COMMUNITY TO DESOLATE CESS POOL OVER NIGHT DUE TO STRINGENT POLICIES, DEMAND OF ID, DEMAND OF CURRENT ENROLLMENT, FAILURE TO HAVE CERTAIN "ITEMS" RIGHT IN FRONT OF US AT OUR DISPOSAL! ALL DUE TO NEW MANAGEMENT DECISIONS!
IN THE GAMING WORLD THE SAME IS VERY TRUE! BATTLE FOR MIDDLE EARTH KEPT F&^% AROUND WITH THEIR CHARACTER CLASSES IN THE HOPES OF MAKING A MORE BALANCED GAME!
ALL IT DID WAS DETERMINE WHICH CLASSES WOULD BE MORE POPULAR UNTIL THE NEXT UPDATE! IN THE END IT CAUSED SEVERAL THOUSAND USERS TO GIVE UP ALMOST ALL AT ONCE OR TO STOP PLAYING THE ONLINE SECTION OF THE GAME!
THIS SCREWING AROUND WITH A SYSTEM THAT WORKED ENDED UP BEING THE FAILURE OF THE FRANCHISE! WHICH IS SAD SINCE THE GAME ORIGINALLY WAS RATHER BALANCED AND A LOT OF FUN TO PLAY!
HULK KNOWS THAT THERE MAY BE OTHER THINGS AT PLAY! THE TWEAKS HOWEVER ARE USUALLY WHAT CAUSE A LOT OF DAMAGE! TO KNOW FOR SURE HULK ADVISES SOME USABILITY TESTING! HAVE SOME FRIENDS THAT MATCH YOUR GENERAL AUDIENCE TEST OUT THE " SOMETHING " AND GET THAT FEEDBACK BEFORE MOVING FORWARD!
Q: "HOW DO I DEAL WITH THE GENERAL POLITICS INVOLVED WITH WORKING ON A PROJECT?"
A: THIS IS A RATHER DANGEROUS SUBJECT! HULK LIKES IT!
FOR THE MUNDANE THINGS LIKE PROVING THINGS NEED TO BE DONE ONE WAY RATHER THEN ANOTHER IT REALLY GOES MILES TO HAVE EVIDENCE, SOMETIMES EVEN HAVE A DISCUSSION!
IF YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH PEOPLE IN HIGHER POSITIONS THAT DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T THINK ABOUT IT, HULK WOULD ADVISE A WEATHERING SOLUTION! GO OVER HOW THEY'D LIKE TO GET IT DONE AND EXPLAIN WHAT THE PROBLEM IS....SLOWLY.
HOWEVER, MAKE SURE YOUR GETTING TO THE POINT AND CHOOSING YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY! THINK OF IT LIKE A CHESS MATCH! CHOOSE YOUR MOVES AND PREDICT WHAT THE BOSS WOULD SAY IN RESPONSE!
YOU DO NOT WANT TO WASTE THEIR TIME ! WHEN IT COMES TO EXPLAINING YOUR SOLUTION MAKE SURE IT FITS ONE OF THESE GUIDELINES!
AMOUNT OF STEPS IS LESS!
ITS MORE COST EFFECTIVE!
DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY TYPE OF INVESTMENT!
( EXHORBENT FEES, SOME TYPE OF SPECIALIZED KNOWLEDGE, CERTAIN CONNECTIONS, ECT).
IF THEY'RE BEING A REAL STICK IN THE MUD THEN BREAK OUT THE GUN SHOW!
SHOW THEM HOW THE COMPETITION IS HANDLING THE SAME PROBLEMS, AND WHAT KIND OF IMPACT ITS HAVING ON YOU! IF YOU CAN PROVE SOMETHING IS DAMAGING THEN YOUR FAR MORE LIKELY TO ENACT CHANGE!
IF THESE BOTH DON'T WORK THEN HULK ADVISES FINDING SOMEONE WHO WILL LISTEN , PERHAPS GO WORK FOR THEM INSTEAD!
HIGHER LEVEL MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY IS TO HEAR WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING, REALLY TAKE IT IN, AND THEN IF ITS A GOOD SUGGESTION, THEY NEED TO ACT ON IT! YOUR ONLY AS STRONG AS THE OTHER PARTS IN YOUR MACHINE! A STRONG BODY AND WEAK MIND IS STILL GOING TO STUMBLE!
TRY TO AVOID SMASHING THE PERSON, ESPECIALLY IF OTHER GROUPS INVOLVED MAY BE STOPPING THEM FROM ENACTING THE CHANGE! IF THEY'RE WILLING TO WORK WITH YOU, AND EXPLORE THE SITUATION THEN WORK WITH THEM!
IF NOT AND THEY'RE JUST BEING A D&%$ FOR THE SAKE OF BEING A D&%$.... THEN SMASH AWAY! HULK WILL GUIDE YOU! : )
HULK HAS A PHD IN SMASH ETHICS WITH A MINOR IN SMASHTOLOGY! MORE THEN QUALIFIED TO MENTOR IN THIS SUBTLE ART!
Q: WHERE DID YOUR LEARN ALL OF THIS?!?
A: HULK HS DONE ALL TYPE OF JOBS AT VARIOUS RESTAURANTS RANGING FROM SIMPLE STAFF MEMBER TO MANAGER!
HULKS ALSO WORKED AS WEB DESIGNER FOR A FEW DIFFERENT PLACES... EVEN WORKED AT A MAGAZINE FOR A LITTLE WHILE!
HULK EVEN GOT TO DO INTERNSHIP AT FANCY CORPORATION DUE TO HIS USABILITY TRAINING!
EVERYTHING HULK SAID IS EITHER STUFF HULK HAS HAD TO DO ON A DAILY BASIS ,OR WERE SOME OF THE REASONS WHY HULK WOULD QUIT....OR STAY ON
WHAT EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE AWAY IS THAT YOU SHOULD NEVER GIVE UP!
THEIR WILL ALWAYS BE OTHER JOBS IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS ONE, AND IF YOU LOVE THE JOB AND WANT TO MAKE IT BETTER THEN HULK HAS DEFINITELY HELPED YOU OUT!
THAT IS ALL FOR NOW! GIVE HULK FEEDBACK IF YOU HAVE MORE QUESTION!
AND, OF COURSE HULK IS ALWAYS ON TWITTER!
