am helping my Huawei friend getting into the fast track and explaining what knowledge is You need 10.000 hours become “successful” at anything What are exactly 10.000 Hours? Using a 40-hour week you do 1920 hours per year. At a rate of 1920 hours per year it takes 5 years and 3 months for your to complete the 10.000 hours require to be successful. What you did in the last 10.000 hours working tells you what you are successful at. Malcolm Gladwell’s “10,000 Hour” rule came from his 2008 book “Outliers – The Story of Success” where he posited that to become “successful” at anything, required a minimum of 10,000 hours of progressively challenging experience. (That is why people I meet at the companies that contract me could never do what I was doing at the level I was doing. Nothing wrong with them. They just do not have the 10.000 hours) here "The 10.000 hour rule" Chapter 2 http://cs.ecust.edu.cn/snwei/studypc/jsjdl/data/OutliersTheStoryOfSuccess.pdf Because companies get their people who want to get promoted these companies think they can use a short cut. They spend money and the time of their staff training them in PMI PMC Prince2 MSP and ITIL thinking that they can get Project Managers. It is like if an airline train staff and give a plane to a guy just because he passed an examination without having the flying hours..

Leaked: accounts for tax-dodging clients, after secret files from Europe’s biggest bank were leaked to several news organisations exposing widespread tax-avoidance practices. Global banking giant HSBC for years catered to a motley crew of weapons dealers, tax evaders, tin-pot dictators and celebrities, using its private Swiss arm to shield accounts worth more than $100 billion. US, France and Argentina were already taking action against HSBC. According to ICIJ, HSBC "served those close" to regimes including that of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, former Tunisian President Ben Ali and current Syrian ruler Bashar al-Assad. Other clients included former and current politicians from Britain, Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Romania, India, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Senegal, among others Documents obtained and analyzed by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) reveal how HSBC ( HSBC) used the secretive Swiss banking system to conceal the identities of accounts holders, and in many cases, help depositors avoid paying taxes. ICIJ's findings are based on data turned over to French authorities by former HSBC employee Hervé Falciani in 2008. The files were later obtained by the newspaper Le Monde and shared among other media outlets
