Williams-Sonoma is a home furnishings retailer founded in 1956 and headquartered in San Francisco. It operates stores under brands like Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, West Elm, and Pottery Barn Kids. The company has grown through acquisitions and expanding its store locations and e-commerce platforms. In recent years, Williams-Sonoma has faced some product safety recalls but has continued growing its business internationally with stores in countries like Australia and the Middle East.
WTF - Why the Future Is Up to Us - pptx version
This is the talk I gave January 12, 2017 at the G20/OECD Conference on the Digital Future in Berlin. I talk about fitness landscapes as applied to technology and business, the role of unchecked financialization in the state of our politics and economy, and why technology really wants to create jobs, not destroy them. (There is a separate PDF version, but some readers said the notes were too fuzzy to read.)
Commodities andConsumptionCommodities are products of social rel.docx
Commodities andConsumption
Commodities are products of social relations. That is, human beings produce them and they derive their value from human labor. Yet, once commodities hit the market, they become simple objects to be bought and sold. We usually do not know about where, how, by whom and under what specific work conditions these commodities are produced and how they find their places in the fancy stores from where we buy them. In this sense, commodities are objects that have “mysterious origins.” We live in a society in which identity is often constructed through acts of consumption. To put it simply, we are what we buy. We all buy commodities, attach meanings to them and make them a part of our material and symbolic life. For example, we love our shoes or sweaters; some love diamond rings or a gold necklace, or many of us just cannot live without chocolate or coffee. Although we know little about their origins, these commodities link us to people around the world who produce for us.
I want you to choose a commodity (diamonds, coffee, bananas, shoes, etc.) produced outside of the US, conduct research and write an essay that addresses these questions:
1) Where is the commodity produced? What corporate entity controls the production and distribution of that commodity?
2) Who are the people producing this commodity? Under what kind of work and health conditions do they produce?
3) Are there any negative impacts of the production of this commodity on the environment? If yes, what are the impacts and how do they harm the environment?
4) How does the commodity enter our life in the US? What does the commodity mean to us?
Step 1: Decide which commodity you will write on and pick one company and one country that produce this commodity. For example, if you select bananas, you must select one brand name (e.g. Chiquita) and one country of origin (e.g. Ecuador). Or, if you select diamonds, you should select one company (e.g. De Beers) and one country (e.g. South Africa).
Step 2: Go to a place where this commodity is sold and try to learn about some basic information about the commodity. You are lucky, if you find a person who is willing or has knowledge to answer your questions. I suggest being direct and clear about your intentions when talking to people. You can simply say that you are a student researching the production of a commodity. Ask for basic information about production and distribution systems and transportation networks. For example, if you are researching coffee production, is it produced on a plantation owned by the same company that imports it to the US? Or, is it grown by small farmers and sold to a centralized buyer who then sells it, say, to Folgers? This information should only provide the basic frame of reference for your paper and should NOT make up a major portion of your paper content. Don’t get discouraged if they don’t want to answer your questions, but think why they don’t deliver that information!

The document summarizes a conference call between members of the SCLA Distribution peer group to discuss reverse logistics and returns management. Key topics discussed included workforce retention challenges like turnover in second shift operations, the need to develop talent pathways to reduce turnover, and engaging local communities to diversify the workforce. Members also discussed the growing problem of managing reverse logistics and returns as e-commerce has increased return volumes and flexibility. Many companies feel unprepared to handle returns at scale, manually sorting returns in unused warehouse space. Members agreed to benchmark current return practices, share metrics on unsalable inventory, and explore automation solutions from third-parties to better manage the "redheaded stepchild" of returns.

FMM 325: Final Project Guidelines and Grading Guide
Overview
The final project for this course is a professional production challenge which will be submitted as a PowerPoint presentation. This project will require students
to develop a comprehensive, sustainable apparel collection as a fictitious private-label manufacturer. The student will research and create concepts to produce
the garments as detailed in the design brief. Students will also merchandise the collection. Students will acquire the capability to act quickly to solve
manufacturing and production challenges as they arise. This will also give students an opportunity to learn how to properly document recommendations with a
specialized standard in mind. The final product represents an authentic demonstration of competency because students will emulate a collection based on a
design brief, which are currently used by professionals in the apparel industry. The project is divided into four milestones, which will be submitted at various
points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Three, Five, and
Seven.
Guidelines
The Design Brief:
An Organic Planet
Season: Spring/Summer
Directions: Seeing a radical change in our global climate, we are forced to think differently and act more responsibly in our approach to design. We need to
simplify, be more resourceful, and understand more clearly what our impact on the planet is based on the decisions we make. For this season, we are going on a
journey to Bali, a place closely connected to the Earth, where people live in balance with the land through their resourcefulness and spiritual reverence. Be
mindful and respectful of the Balinese people and their customs. We choose to blend in with our surroundings while still retaining a sense of self. Clothes that
can be tied or wrapped and layered, almost sculptural in effect, are preferred. Minimize the use of hardware, and if it is absolutely necessary, make it meaningful.
All fabrics are either organic or recycled, with an absolute minimum of waste left over. Zero waste is ideal.
Colors: Reflecting the Balinese people and their respect for the connection of all things natural, we will use the four elements as our guiding inspiration for color,
creating a sense of balance and harmony in the collection.
• Earth: warm browns such as cinnamon, teakwood
• Air: white, glass or metal, ice
• Fire: tangerine, saffron, fuchsia
• Water: aqua, oceanic blue
Your role: designer, merchandiser, sales, marketer, buyer
Milestone One: Paper: Targeting The Sustainably Minded Customer
In task 2-3, you will submit a short paper of 2–3 pages. Determine your target market category and how and why these consumers embrace fashions that are
made of environmentally friendly fabrics. You should research and define your product’s targeted customers and describe their characteristics.

Week 4
This document provides an overview and plan for user research activities over the next few weeks. It discusses the importance of understanding users and their needs and perspectives to guide product development. The plan outlines qualitative research methods like observations and interviews to understand what users do and their attitudes in their natural environments. Interviewing techniques are covered, emphasizing open-ended questions. The document also provides guidance for conducting research ethically and avoiding bias by staying out of "solution land" and documenting emerging patterns rather than assumptions. Students are assigned to create a detailed research plan by the end of the session.

This document provides information on applying the 5S methodology to improve organization and work processes. It describes the 7 tools of Kaizen, emphasizing 5S. The 5S system includes 5 steps - Sort, Systematize, Sweep, Standardize, and Sustain. Each step is defined in detail, outlining processes and benefits such as increased productivity, quality, and safety. Implementing 5S brings order to work areas, makes necessary items easily accessible, and creates a culture of cleanliness and discipline.
AgileNYC: Agile Day 2016 - Richard Lawrence
This document outlines the steps for feature mining to identify minimum marketable features (MMFs) for a project. It defines an MMF as the smallest change in system behavior that provides desired business impact. The 6 steps are: 1) get key stakeholders, 2) name what is being sliced, 3) brainstorm value, size, risk, and uncertainty lists, 4) filter the lists to identify priorities, 5) brainstorm slice ideas to address priorities with minimal size, and 6) name the features and get started. An example of weekly sales reporting is provided to illustrate the steps.

Much of what makes Geography exciting and relevant is the fact that the “field” surrounds us: our bodies, homes, neighborhoods, cities, States, countries, and even the virtual world, each form spaces, places and landscapes that we read, analyze and shape. This assignment gives you the opportunity to investigate the places and spaces that make up your world. In so doing you will continue to apply the spatial perspective, ask Geographic questions and incorporate other things you’ve learned.

Training program on 5 S
This document provides an overview of a training session on the 5S methodology for improving housekeeping and organization. The 5S methodology originated in Japan and consists of five Japanese words: Sort, Set In Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. The training covers the history and benefits of 5S, provides details on each of the 5S steps, and outlines a 5S implementation plan involving getting management support, promotional campaigns, record keeping, training, and evaluation.
Finding the First Slice
Many Agile practitioners are comfortable working iteratively in small slices once there’s a basic foundation, but struggle with where to start on a new project, product, or other big idea. Participants in this session will learn how to use Richard’s Feature Mining technique to find early slices of any big idea that provide value, learning, and risk-mitigation.
Agile For All clients have used this successfully for all kinds of software products, for combined software and hardware systems, and even beyond software in such areas as park construction and office remodeling. In some cases, projects with apparent significant up-front infrastructure requirements were able to ship a valuable slice to customers after just one or two sprints.
5 s
The document provides an overview of the 5S methodology for organizing and standardizing a workplace. It describes the five steps as: Seiri (organization), separating unnecessary items and tidying the essentials; Seiton (neatness), arranging items so they can be easily accessed and stored; Seiso (cleaning), keeping machines and the environment clean; Seiketsu (standardization), making cleaning and checking routine through standards; and Shitsuke (discipline), maintaining the previous steps through constant improvement and discipline. Implementing 5S requires cooperation and provides benefits like a more pleasant workplace and ability to see issues that need attention.

Training program on 5 S
This document provides an overview of a training session on the 5S methodology for improving housekeeping and organization. The 5S methodology originated in Japan and consists of five Japanese words: Sort, Set In Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. The training covers the history and benefits of 5S, provides details on each of the 5S steps, and outlines a 5S implementation plan involving getting management support, promotional campaigns, record keeping, training, and evaluation.
Finding the First Slice
Many Agile practitioners are comfortable working iteratively in small slices once there’s a basic foundation, but struggle with where to start on a new project, product, or other big idea. Participants in this session will learn how to use Richard’s Feature Mining technique to find early slices of any big idea that provide value, learning, and risk-mitigation.
Agile For All clients have used this successfully for all kinds of software products, for combined software and hardware systems, and even beyond software in such areas as park construction and office remodeling. In some cases, projects with apparent significant up-front infrastructure requirements were able to ship a valuable slice to customers after just one or two sprints.
5 s
The document provides an overview of the 5S methodology for organizing and standardizing a workplace. It describes the five steps as: Seiri (organization), separating unnecessary items and tidying the essentials; Seiton (neatness), arranging items so they can be easily accessed and stored; Seiso (cleaning), keeping machines and the environment clean; Seiketsu (standardization), making cleaning and checking routine through standards; and Shitsuke (discipline), maintaining the previous steps through constant improvement and discipline. Implementing 5S requires cooperation and provides benefits like a more pleasant workplace and ability to see issues that need attention.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
