This document summarizes the discussions and conclusions from the 2015 Climate Knowledge Brokers Group workshop. The workshop had over 58 participants and aimed to get feedback on a new CKB Manifesto explaining the importance of climate knowledge brokering. Participants provided valuable input on what users need, how to improve knowledge brokering, and principles for the Manifesto. An outreach event the day before featured presentations from knowledge brokers and a panel discussion on creating an effective climate knowledge grid, generating interest from an online audience. The wealth of feedback will be used to finalize the Manifesto ahead of the COP21 climate conference in Paris.

This document discusses the NATO MultiNational Smart Defence Project on Cyber Defence Education & Training (Project 1.36). It provides an overview of the project including its aims, participating nations, phases and deliverables. The project seeks to coordinate cyber defence education and training across NATO to address gaps and shortfalls. Key initiatives discussed include developing a unified cyber competence framework, new course offerings, an international cybersecurity and cyber defence masters' program, and establishing a "Cyber Academia and Innovation Hub."
The document discusses improving transparency and communication of corporate sustainable development practices through the use of sustainability reporting guidelines from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). It notes increasing demands from various stakeholders for more transparency from companies regarding their social and environmental impacts. The GRI aims to establish a globally accepted framework for sustainability reporting to provide consistency, credibility, and comparability across organizations. Adoption of the GRI and OECD guidelines can help companies address stakeholders' needs for transparency as well as their own reporting dilemmas.

It takes a musical genius to orchestrate a rock band and classical orchestra at the same time. The contrast is similar when balancing cost efficiencies and investing in growth in an organisation. Nigeria is one of the most attractive consumer markets in Africa, with promising double digit growth whilst ensuring supply chain efficiencies. This presentation provides practical examples to address these key challenges, such as price sensitive consumers and distributors, fragmental logistics network, limited network visibility and complex product portfolios.

This document provides a case study on the Korean steel company POSCO, analyzing its growth strategy and key success factors. It examines POSCO's development in two stages: the start-up and growth stage from 1968-1992, and the maturity stage from 1993-2009. During the early stage, government policy and support, the leadership of CEO TJ Park, technology acquisition and learning from overseas partners, and a focus on cost competitiveness were important drivers of POSCO's success. In later years, transformational leadership, internal technology development, process innovation, and global management strategies helped POSCO continue growing successfully.

C2.1. NAIP: Engagement for Reforms in Organizational Development of Indian NARSGCARD Conferences
NAIP was a $250 million World Bank project launched in 2006 as a successor to previous agricultural research and development projects to demonstrate an agricultural innovation system approach in India. The project aimed to strengthen scientific capacity, market orientation, social inclusion, and institutional capacity of India's national agricultural research system through competitive funding of large, multi-institutional projects involving partnerships between public, private, and civil society groups. While the project achieved some successes like commercialization of technologies, establishment of rural industries, and training of scientists, it also faced challenges like slow credit utilization, documentation, and mainstreaming of results. The document proposes disseminating lessons from NAIP through various print, electronic, and participatory media channels.

ICEC 2014 Linking 6 Phase Project Life Cycle with TCM Framework-PaperRussell Archibald
This document discusses linking a comprehensive six-phase project life cycle model and concepts of project team cognitive readiness to the Total Cost Management (TCM) Framework. It recommends adopting the six-phase model as a standard, which includes an Incubation/Feasibility Phase before the Starting Phase and a Post-Project Evaluation Phase after Close-out. It also recommends revising the TCM Framework to recognize this comprehensive model and linking TCM principles throughout the project life cycle. More research is needed on applying concepts of project team cognitive readiness to improve teamwork on projects.

Conclusions
• The GTRI PMIT has proven to be a productive
approach to assure continuous improvement in
the management processes used on this large
and complex initiative.
• This team approach might be highly effective for
similar large, complex government-industry
endeavours, including the use of independent
experts as a part of the improvement team.
