		<description><![CDATA[While not a complete list, these notable items clearly show that Newton's physics do apply to IT organizations.   Looking at your IT organization in this light allows you additional ways to think through your decisions, and how to direct your organization to its future state. <a href="http://russaebig.com/directionallycorrect/2009/08/09/physics-of-it-what-have-we-learned/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We never really begin any of our endeavors in an organization from a point of total calm. There are many forces at play, internal and external, which cause us fight headwinds in all that we do.

In physics, we can calculate the net force in effect through vector arithmetic.   From this set of calculations we learn that forces compound in both direction and magnitude resulting in the net force in play. <a href="http://russaebig.com/directionallycorrect/2009/07/30/it-physics-force-of-headwinds/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity (velocity is equivalent to rate of change). In practical terms an object which is moving at a given velocity can increase it's velocity with an external force being applied (pressing an accelerator). The velocity can also be reduced with an external force being applied (pressing a brake).  In our swimming pool example, if we were to increase the temperature to heat in the water in the pool, or move more water to heating elements (external forces) we can accelerate the rate of change <a href="http://russaebig.com/directionallycorrect/2009/07/27/physics-of-it-acceleration/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A former colleague of mine, John Calvello, has penned Corporate Physics. A great book which draws insightful comparisons between implementing complex change and Newtonian Physics. These two topics would normally not share a sentence, but they have inspired the next series of posts as I draw similar correlations to traditional IT organizations. <a href="http://russaebig.com/directionallycorrect/2009/07/14/physics-of-an-it-organization/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
