			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>O discuție interesantă nu numai din punctul de vedere al identificării oamenilor care “otrăvesc” climatul unei comunitați, ci și din punctul de vedere al creării si conducerii echipelor care se bazează pe “consens”, așa cum sunt comunitățile de programatori open source. </p>
<p>Din păcate minoritatea gălăgioasă, lăudăroasa si agresivă este privită ca cea care trebuie promovată. De cele mai multe ori agresivitatea, lauda de sine și egoismul sunt considerate calităti (omul știe să se vândă, își cunoaște valoarea, știe sa își impună punctele de vedere). Sunt oameni care cred ca <strong>trebuie</strong> sa conduca cu orice preț, că s-au născut pentru a fi lideri. Astfel de oameni au toate sansele sa devină in scurt timp lideri, arzând toate etapele pregatitoare unei munci de o covârșitoare responsabilitate, otrăvind climatul echipelor pe care le conduc. Ce e trist, e ca astfel de oameni nu vor invața nimic din experiența conduceri, pentru ca ei “<strong>nu gresesc niciodata</strong>”. </p>
<p>Probabil ca din această cauză sunt puțini oameni din mediul corporatist care înțeleg felul în care o comunitate open source lucrează. Pentru a rezista intr-un mediu <strong>meritocrat</strong> si profund <strong>colaborativ</strong> trebuie sa ai <strong>TOATE</strong> aceste calități :</p>
<ul>
<li>Politețe </li>
<li>Respect </li>
<li>Încredere </li>
<li>Umilință </li>
</ul>
<p>Cred că un astfel de management al resurselor umane este benefic oricarei intreprinderi fie ea mică sau mare.</p>

private bool IsOdd(int i)
