Social system in Islam VS Capitalist Social SystemNaveed Butt
1) Islam establishes different yet complementary roles and responsibilities for men and women based on their inherent physiological and psychological differences, with the aim of establishing justice, harmony and balance in society.

Money is No Object: Why We Should and How We Can Achieve Full EmploymentMitch Green
Stephanie Kelton argues that the United States should pursue full employment through direct job creation strategies. She notes that persistent unemployment imposes high social and economic costs. While corporate profits have grown since 1990, businesses have not hired more workers because demand remains weak. The government needs to boost demand through spending to create jobs, but policymakers mistakenly believe the US faces budget constraints like households. However, the US issues its own floating fiat currency and cannot run out of money like Greece. Kelton proposes specific policies like payroll tax holidays and federally-funded job guarantees to directly create employment opportunities.
The document discusses taking a holistic approach to implementing robotic process automation (RPA) in insurance operations. It emphasizes analyzing processes to identify those suitable for automation, considering automation as one of several tools in process improvement, and planning change management to address the impact on roles. A holistic approach considers governance, strategic alignment, talent impacts, and maintaining automation over the long run for successful RPA implementation.
Saas State of the Industry Presentation At Small Business Summit 2014 by Bjoe...Bjoern Lasse Herrmann
In the 10-15 years since the birth of SaaS as an industry, it’s now been planted firmly in the mainstream of conversation, but it’s disruptive wave is still getting started.
When we look into Compass data we see that nearly half of SaaS startups have received funding, which indicates a significant amount of investment capital being channeled into the category. There’s a clear reason why. Gartner forecasts the SaaS market will grow at 20% through at least 2020, almost 3 times as fast as software overall, and there remains ample opportunity for greater global penetration over time. Salesforce represents the shining star of possibility, consistently growing at more than 30%.
At the same time, at just 17 billion dollars, the SaaS pool is still relatively small and the field is very crowded. While Compass data indicates that half of SaaS companies are profitable, the statistic also measures a push for profitability over growth, often limiting size. Of all SaaS companies in Compass, only 7% achieve even 10,000 users.
The biggest challenge is distribution. Our data shows SaaS companies rely heavily on direct sales — at nearly twice the rates of every other channel, but can afford only modest sales teams of 1 or 2. The vast majority pay nothing for marketing or advertising.
This means many salespeople out there fighting, one by one, client by client, for the same turf. These crowded market challenges are also driving a push away from SMB audiences and into more lucrative enterprise markets. But it is primarily the packaged software industry titans that dominate SaaS revenue — Intuit, Oracle, Adobe, Microsoft, Google, SAP.
One can think of this as a David versus Goliath scenario, except that the David’s are fighting each other. The Goliath’s may not be as nimble, in many cases their products are inferior, but they have the support of an entire distribution ecosystem — from resellers to channel partners to consultants and trainers — who are dependent on the horse they bet on winning.
Enterprises, then, aren’t just larger small businesses. Their needs run far deeper. Any software solution must integrate effectively with multiple legacy systems. Security is a tremendous concern. Training programs must be rolled out. A small business may make decisions for the moment, but enterprises must have confidence in the long-term viability of the vendor.
All of this goes to reinforce the fact that history tells us, sometimes painfully, that the best product does not always win. The best distribution method does.
So returning to the David side of the equation, what can SaaS businesses do to beat the Goliaths?

Sydney Subscribed 2016: Pricing Strategies for TomorrowZuora, Inc.
A recent Simon-Kucher global pricing study shows that more than 80% of all companies face increasing price pressure. Pure price level reactions can hardly be the answer to this challenge – the change of the revenue / price model on the other hand can be. This presentation highlights why companies should think out-of-the-box when it comes to their price model and how, for example, subscription models and bundling can not only protect but actually improve margins.

Entrepreneurs with limited access to legal advice make many common mistakes that can result in disastrous consequences but can be avoided with minimal cost.
La historia de la vida en la Tierra y en otras plataformas planetarios potenciales portadoras de vida están profundamente ligadas a la historia del Universo. Puesto que la vida, tal como la conocemos, se basa en elementos químicos forjados en estrellas pesadas moribundas, el Universo tiene que ser lo suficientemente antiguo para que las estrellas se formaran y evolucionaran. La teoría cosmológica actual indica que el Universo es de 13,7 ± 0,13 mil millones de años y que las primeras estrellas se formaron cientos de millones de años después del Big Bang. En este trabajo, se argumenta que podemos dividir la historia cosmológica en cuatro edades, desde el Big Bang a la vida inteligente.
The document argues that while 2016 had some notable celebrity deaths and political upheaval, it was not truly the "worst year ever." First, the Battle of the Somme in 1916 saw over 1 million casualties, far surpassing anything from 2016. Second, most celebrities who died were of reasonable age or had health issues, and what people truly mourn is their own past associated with those celebrities. Third, while 2016 saw political upsets like Brexit and the US election, the long-term impacts remain uncertain and changes can potentially have upsides as well as downsides. The document encourages maintaining hope and perspective going into 2017.

Lawyer in Vietnam Oliver Massmann Public mergers and acquisitions: market ana...Dr. Oliver Massmann
This document summarizes major public mergers and acquisitions (M&A) transactions in Vietnam over the past 12 months across several industries such as financial, retail, food, real estate, and insurance. Notable deals include bank mergers and foreign acquisitions of Vietnamese companies. M&A transactions typically involve share or asset acquisitions. Private equity investment is also discussed. The competition regulator reviews certain large deals. Factors that may affect future M&A activity include Vietnam's economic integration, pressure to privatize state firms, and new laws aiming to improve the investment environment.
Lawyer in Vietnam Oliver Massmann Equitization Quality over Quantity Dr. Oliver Massmann
The document summarizes a draft decree from the Vietnamese Ministry of Finance on allowing strategic investors to purchase stakes in equitized state-owned enterprises. The draft proposes stricter requirements for strategic investors, including that they must have the same business sectors as the state-owned enterprises and have a track record of at least two years of profits. This would affect foreign firms who want to invest in state enterprises outside their existing business sectors. The author believes the stricter rules will help the government select more qualified investors who can improve equitization quality and financial performance of the state-owned enterprises. Foreign investors are advised to conduct due diligence on targeted state firms and ensure they meet the new financial and management experience requirements.

What everyone should know about Islam and Muslims Suzanne Haneef PDFFatima Karim
The document provides an overview of Islamic beliefs and concepts, beginning with the basic Islamic creed of "La ilaha illa Llah, Muhammadun rasool Allah" which affirms the oneness of God and Muhammad's prophethood. It explains that from this creed stems all of Islam's worldview, including beliefs about God, humanity's purpose and relationship to God, and moral and social teachings.

Islam is a monotheistic religion based on the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. The five pillars of Islam are the declaration of faith, daily prayers, fasting during Ramadan, paying zakat (charity), and performing the hajj pilgrimage if physically and financially able. Muslims believe Islam is the final and most complete revelation from God, building upon previous messages to other prophets like Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. The Quran and hadith (sayings and practices of Muhammad) provide guidance for Muslims on spiritual and worldly matters. Islam teaches that all humans will be judged by God after death based on their beliefs and deeds in life.
The document provides guidance on initiating dawah conversations through respectful questioning and building rapport.

Sample dialogues show how to respectfully initiate conversations on the street or bus through friendly greetings and questions to create understanding before guiding the discussion to Islamic foundations. The goal is to have the person understand Islam from a rational perspective by first addressing their "red filtered glasses" view of it.
