Opening it I found out that my article about the CEMS internship got published in a new book from Mr. Zvelebil who writes articles based on interviews with various travellers, publishes them in the Czech social magazine Reflex in his special section and occasionally as wider collection also in a book-form.
My article desribing work experience from Bonn can be found on page 63 :-).
You can buy the book at http://www.knizniweb.cz/knihy/89753-na-vandru-s-reflexem-v.html. for the best price. This one offers articles from Ethiopia, Ghana, Germany, Austria, Kongo, Sudan, Switzerland, Turkey, Uganda and Vietnam. Very interesting range. I am looking forward to be reading all of them.
This was my first summer which I spent together with my boyfriend Lukas, as full-time employee of Cisco and in non-student status, my book about CPFR was published, I tried to prepare sushi for the first time…what else is new? Oh yeh, I celebrated my first 25 years on the world with few decent parties including my family, friends, colleagues from work, etc. Of course, since it´s summer time, some other parties, trips and also well-deserved holiday abroad were part of it. I will put together a diary for our trip through Bulgaria and Istanbul, it will be published at http://www.ontheroad.to/ and through this blog as well.
My 25 birthday celebration:
Me 25 and my grandmother 80! Plus my sister 19 and fresh university student of medicine!
I got my first Porsche from my dad – ok, it´s made of chocolate, but it´s a good start :-)
Me and my mom – daughter 25 and mom 50!
This present from my mom was a memorial plaque to honour Obama´s visit in Prague and says: Yes, we can. But the really funny thing was the playing box where it was placed.
My book is online and available for sale at amazon.com - http://is.gd/ex6IF. I just found out today because my mom discovered this for me :-).
Product Description
Collaboration among businesses is currently considered to be driver for growth, cost reduction and innovation in many industries. Collaboration together with technology and visibility is the way how to improve complex multinational supply chains. This publication describes new concepts of collaborative planning in supply chains. The theoretical part depicts developments of supply chain planning from 60s until recent time and shows possible solutions of common supply chain planning problems in form of modern collaborative practices (e.g. Quick Response, Continuous Replenishment, Vendor-managed Inventory, Efficient Consumer Response). In further parts, the work mainly focuses on CPFR (Collaborative Planning Forecasting and Replenisment) concept. There is a separate chapter devoted to benchmarks and pilots of CPFR. In addition to that, practical research of one particular example of CPFR implementation was conducted in cooperation with companies T-Mobile (Deutsche Telekom AG) and Nokia. Results of this research can be found in the last chapter.
Hello. This summer, I have tried two of very popular activities, those being one active and one lazy sport :-). Firstly, we have bought a new grill with Lukas. Small, transportable, classy american grill, brand Weber. We have already tried it out several times and invited also some friends to taste some of our outputs :-). So far so good, only once, we burnt one piece of cheese which smelled badly but the meat was always very good.
The second new activity I occasionally undertake is roller skating. The roller skates was a birthday gift from Lukas and I also chose the complete set of various protectors which already proved to be useful things. My record is 25 km route with 1 fall only which is not any extreme level of performance but anyhow I am proud of it and it´s been fun. Few weeks back, we were skating with my friends in Nymburk and Podebrady along the river Labe. I also bought a new shock-proof and water-proof camera, and we tried it out for the first time during this trip.
This year for the first time, I decided to visit the famous film festival in Karlovy Vary and to use for this purpose two free public holiday days in July. We went with my sis and enjoyed the atmosphere of queueing for several movies, had some drinks in between and saw few famous people. The star of this year was Jude Law and we managed to get in to the movie where he was having a small speech and ceremony. Overall the festival is very crowded and one has to develop the best strategy to get to as many movies as possible. Next time we would be much smarter :-). Anyway, in 2 days we managed to see 5 movies for 150 CZK each of us which I judge as really good.
It has been my tradition to describe major CEMS socializing events of the semester. The spring semester 2010 should not be any exception. Although I am not student anymore...sadly for me...I stil enjoy attending these events. CEMS Gala Dance was organized by CEMS Club Prague already in April but as I was going through my posts and pictures tonight I realized that evidence of this event has been missing on my blog....so here it is :-). Cool stylish evening with buffet, drinks and dancing lessons, nice meetup of cemsies on top of that of course.
Hi, after attending the second barcamp with my boyfriend, I decided to post something about those events on my blog because it has been always a very interesting and enriching experience. In January 2010, we were on the first barcamp in CZ which was organized in Vsetin by local entrepreneurs and internet fans. It was a great meeting of interesting people and I really enjoyed the whole weekend of presentations and talks. I was in particular astonished by the high ratio of people having Macs and iPhones. I learned about a lot of interesting websites, intiatives, projects and after coming back from this weekend, I have established my twitter account as well (@olinkany). After-party in Vsetin was really nice as well :-).
My second barcamp experience was last weekend in Vienna where we went with Lukáš to try out an international barcamp. Everything was in German which again refreshed my vocabulary and speaking a bit and we attended just few sessions about coworking, social media usage and own branding, fashion on internet and web-analytics. It was again Apple paradise, the only difference was, people were also using iPads there :-). Since the weather was nice, we also enjoyed some sightseeing in Vienna City Center. I love this City, not as much as Prague, but similarly :-) ... because it brought me a lot of nice memories during the semester I spent there in winter 2007/2008.
Greetings to everyone. I have finally uploaded the speech from my graduation ceremony for those who were interested to listen but could not attend on March 12. I hope you will enjoy it.
On the first weekend of May I arranged a trip to Edinburgh in Scotland to visit my friend Lucy. I flew with a friend of mine Martin and our both flights went ok despite the recent activities of the Islandic volcano whose name is so hard to write or pronounce.
The temperature in Edinburgh was around 10 degrees lower than in Prague but that has not discouraged us from exploring beauties of the Scottish capital. We were impressed mainly by the crowds in and atmosphere of local pubs. In the restaurant called "Standing Order", you order and pay your food at the bar and tell the waiter the number of the table and in few minutes, they would bring you the meal. Interesting and quite efficient pub supply chain :-). Well, I am just joking.
Edinburgh has for sure a lot to offer. I was most impressed by the really green lawns and grass, plus at this time of a year, flowers and trees in parks are blossoming and the city looked perfect with old British houses around. There is great view from Calton Hill where we spent Friday evening observing and ancient fire festival tradition.
On Saturday we visited the coast and the beach. It was probably the coldest weather at the seaside which I´ve ever experiences but I found some huge shells which improved my mood very much. Then we had a small lunch in a nice restaurant near the beach.
A funny story ended our Saturday evening when I pronounced the name of our street totally differently to the taxi driver and he took us on other side of the city. So ok, the drive cost us a bit more :-). Lucy likes it in Edinburgh very much and I do not wonder about it. It is a nice place if you don´t mind bit of rain and cold wind...:-). Although when we landed back in Prague on Sun evening, it was raining while it was sunny before the plane took off from Edinburgh.
