This report proposes implementing a collaboration solution to improve information sharing, communication, and productivity within the company. It identifies key needs like increased workforce productivity, faster product development timelines, and streamlined communication. The current system of information storage in directories and informal knowledge sharing is inefficient. A collaboration environment could capture knowledge, facilitate project management and processes, and integrate with existing applications. This would help onboard new employees more quickly, reduce time spent searching for information, and empower employees and teams to work more effectively together.

Closing the Gap Between Project Management and Governance
In today’s increasingly competitive marketplace, budgets are tight and resources are limited. Consequently, making decisions about which projects to pursue is vital in supporting an organization’s growth, vision, and value. For this dilemma, there is a powerful cost containment and risk mitigation strategy—a combination of IT governance and portfolio management. This approach is highly relevant for budget issues state agencies and departments currently face. With the proliferation of technology at greater and greater speed, the options that could bring potential benefit are seemingly endless. Gone are the days when a great technological idea was an end in itself. Technology has truly become an enabler across all sizes and types of organizations. The challenge now is to understand which business goals can be enabled by a technology and choose the best projects to accomplish those goals. The best way to ensure and demonstrate value to the organization is to know how these projects are supporting the organization financially and operationally. Implementing sound project management practices along with a governance framework can enable this kind of visibility and control.

11 Reasons Oracle E-Business Suite projects fail and how to fix themeprentise
As a mission critical system, considerable time and attention should be devoted to maintaining, improving, and optimizing your Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) system. While most tasks are relatively routine in nature, sometimes—either due to organizational changes, the need to upgrade, or due to changes in management and regulatory reporting requirements—a change is needed in your EBS system that requires the initiation of a more complex project.

According to Gartner, 70% of social implementations fail because they lack a business purpose. When it comes to harnessing the power of social software, a focus on business value is required. This whitepaper defines a strategic framework for gaining business value from social software. It outlines six successful rollout strategies. Each of the six approaches delivers different business results, and has a different level of risk. And most importantly, each has different requirements to succeed. To be successful with social software, you need to choose the rollout strategy that is best for your organization, and understand its requirements for success.

This article is a collection of short case studies where teams failed to meet the expected results. The underlying companies were of different sizes, culture and industries. The only thing common across the board was the quality of the people – all the teams had bright individuals that had a track record of success.

Communication is omnipresent in every business. While a lot is said and done about Communication Skills improvement, the area of improving Communication Process or the Communication Systems within an organization remains vastly ignored. There are sustainable benefits that can be achieved by improving the business communication system. Some organizations have already realized impressive benefits such as 100%+ improvement in operational efficiency and 50%+ improvement in sales. We cover the latest happenings, how a company can achieve these benefits and the common mistakes that need to be avoided.
Social software lets employees connect and share in new ways, and can dramatically improve the effectiveness of your organization. But social technologies like microblogging, social networking, automated activity feeds, social spreadsheets, wikis, etc. are new to most organizations, and most IT departments don’t have experience with how to successfully implement them.
Success with social software involves a lot more than simply finding the product that best fits your needs. It involves framing the problem appropriately in the first place, defining your business goals, and choosing a rollout methodology designed to meet those goals. It involves selling your CFO, changing behavior across your organization, and more.
This paper is designed to help you learn from the mistakes of others before you, so you can avoid the common pitfalls of social software, and get fast business value.

How to foster team collaboration at your workplaceOrangescrum
Orangescrum helps you track your time & resources and organizes them efficiently and facilitates end to end team collaboration across your organization.
A successful collaboration strategy includes technology, process alignment, and the user experiences. However, organizations tend to focus the most on technology, and the least on people -- when the opposite should be true. As this presentation explains, culture is the key to any successful collaboration strategy.
Planning your Digital Workplace: A Systems-Based Planning ApproachChristian Buckley
When deploying a “Digital Workplace,” where do you begin? What is needed is an iterative, strategic, and systems-based approach of identifying core challenges at the team and company level, working with key stakeholders to identify appropriate strategies, building a solution using a scalable, repeatable, and sustainable change model. This approach drives stakeholder engagement, and ensures a more holistic solution that aligns with the needs of the business at every level. In this presentation, we walk through a systems-based planning approach for Enterprise Collaboration. Topics will include:
--Engaging leaders in a systems analysis, identifying high-priority needs and challenges
--Outlining a set of targeted and strategic actions based on common customer scenarios
--Developing an implementation plan to support successful operational and improvement strategies
The intent of this presentation is to help organizations incorporate systems-based planning into their Digital Workplace planning processes, using real-world customer examples, and to receive tips on how to fold these best practices into their own strategies.

The organization projects have a different strategical plan that can help in enterprise goals achievements. There are some of the projects that require some of the bulky of the activities that will help the business management to achieve the implemented goals and objectives using different ideas. There is a uniqueness of the project that can be detected to show some of the differences in the process and ensuring there is goals achievement in the completion of the project process. It is important to consider timelines when expecting the completion of the project.
The projects and daily activities have some of the differences since the projects take too long for its completion while daily activities take a short period. The implementation of the daily activities requires the business to have a continuous operation as deployed by business management. Moreover, the daily activities have no indicated date or schedule plans which are implemented in the project process to help in achieving the business goals.
The organization should create group management to help in making better decisions that will lead to effective practices that will increase the effectiveness of the project management by considering the team members' support and idea-sharing. The organization project should be recorded to make a comparison in some of the areas such as members' roles and responsibilities. Moreover, business management is recommended to focus on some of the areas where they consider the quality of the project's goals achievements. According to Jissink, Rohrbeck, & Schweitzer (2017), the implementation of the group or project team requires effective leadership skills to help in influencing the members for the project successful completion.
Ultimately, some of the challenges occur due to the use of information technology in some areas. The cybersecurity has been issued that interferes with most of the projects since there are some of the members that can leak the information to other business competitors thus exposing the business project planning. Moreover, the budget allocation can also be affected by the use of IT thus creating difficulties in project management, Papke-Shields, & Boyer-Wright (2017). The project's uniqueness should consider some of the needs in planning and having effective preparation for successful project completion.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
