Report on Technology Transfer of Solar Charkha in Khadi SectorIJMER
International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) is Peer reviewed, online Journal. It serves as an international archival forum of scholarly research related to engineering and science education.
International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) covers all the fields of engineering and science: Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Agricultural Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Thermodynamics, Structural Engineering, Control Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, Fluid Mechanics, Nanotechnology, Simulators, Web-based Learning, Remote Laboratories, Engineering Design Methods, Education Research, Students' Satisfaction and Motivation, Global Projects, and Assessment…. And many more.
This document summarizes a training webinar on conducting telephone interviews. It discusses preparing for interviews by writing questions and objectives. During interviews, give full attention to the interviewee and take notes to follow up. Maintain a positive attitude through vocal tone and avoiding distractions. Techniques for detecting deception include listening for hesitation, vagueness, anger focused elsewhere, and inconsistencies. Exercises can help improve interview skills. Attendees are invited to contact the presenters with any additional questions.
The document summarizes the MGIRI Solar Charkha, a technology developed to operate charkhas (spinning wheels) using solar power as an alternative to manual operation. Some key points:
- The solar-powered charkha system uses a solar panel, controller, battery and motor to run the charkha at a constant speed, increasing productivity over manual operation.
- It eliminates the drudgery of manual spinning while allowing one operator to oversee multiple charkhas. Production and wages are increased.
- Solar energy provides a solution to power charkhas in rural areas lacking electricity infrastructure.
- The technology could boost employment in the khadi sector by improving spinning outputs

City of Ottawa technical briefing on MPAC property assessment noticesStittsvilleCentral.ca
Every four years, the Ontario Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) mails property assessment notifications to residential, commercial and industrial property owners providing them with the latest assessed value of their property.
MPAC will begin mailing property assessment notices for residential properties in Ottawa on July 18. Assessment notices for non-residential properties will be mailed in the fall of 2016. The last province-wide Assessment Update of Ontario properties took place in 2012 and was based on the valuation date of January 1, 2012. This update is based on the valuation date of January 1, 2016.
An assessment notice is not a tax bill and an increase in assessment does not necessarily mean the same or any increase in property taxes.
On Monday, City of Ottawa Finance staff and MPAC staff briefed members of City Council, their staff and the news media to explain the new assessments and their relation to property taxes. Here's a copy of the slide deck from the presentation.

How Best Practices in Triage Protocol Can Boost Compliance and Reduce RiskCase IQ
With recent announcements of increasingly stringent federal policies around record-keeping and due diligence, compliance and investigation professionals are feeling the pressure to demonstrate consistency and rigor in their case management processes.
Planning your investigation, having the right team members involved and reporting on outcomes of an investigation can all be difficult phases of the process.
However, being able to demonstrate that you are quickly, consistently and accurately triaging incidents is even more important now.
The key is to establish decision-making approaches and plan out your entire protocol before the matter comes to your attention through hotline reporting or other mechanism. This ensures structure and success as you triage, investigate, staff the investigation properly and meet the inevitable challenges of reporting and addressing the root causes of incidents.

Who's Lying? Using the Cognitive Interview to Assess Credibility in Workplace...Case IQ
When investigating a “he said/she said” case of sexual harassment or other alleged misconduct, are you using scientifically validated methods to interview witnesses, assess their credibility, and reach a defensible conclusion?
Over the past 15 years, scientists have found that much of the conventional wisdom on how to effectively interview witnesses and determine truthfulness is wrong. At the same time, courts have found companies liable for using scientifically unproven interviewing techniques in workplace investigations.
In this webinar you will learn about the hundreds of research studies that scientists have conducted on how to best interview witnesses and assess credibility. You will learn how to apply these scientifically validated methods to your investigations.
Join the i-Sight team and former U.S. Department of Justice attorney Michael Johnson as they discuss how to apply these scientifically validated methods to your investigations.
Protecting the Mental Wellbeing of Corporate InvestigatorsCase IQ
Vicarious trauma is a type of second-hand psychological response most often associated with first responders and front-line crisis workers. Although corporate incident investigators and HR and compliance professionals are usually not the first on the scene, they frequently find themselves listening to both victims and accused people who recount what could be the worst days of their professional lives.
There is no doubt that the case management process can be stressful and sometimes triggering for those who are managing it. The personal and organizational impacts can include compromised risk assessment and investigations, investigator burnout and absenteeism, and a less healthy workplace overall.
Join expert workplace investigator Ken McCarthy as he shares his experience with vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue resulting from his involvement in workplace investigations.
As an investigator, you don’t define your value to the organization; leadership does. What are you doing to be a better business advisor and contribute to the organization’s goals? In other words, why should the bosses listen to you?
Because misconduct doesn’t happen in a vacuum! It results from a perfect storm of factors like employee ignorance, a failure to see the larger implications, a lack of training and procedures, or a failure of internal controls. And you have a view to all of this in your cases.
This webinar outlines how you can become a better strategic advisor, how to think like a business leader, and what keeps executives awake at night. You’ll learn how case management can drive a culture of prevention, and how you can prove the bottom-line ROI of investigations.
Join Meric Bloch, Strategic Advisor at Winter Investigations as he discusses how investigators can become business advisors to the C-suite using their knowledge of case management and risk assessment.
In this webinar, you will learn:
Goals of a strategic business advisor.
-What advice does a strategic advisor give?
-What should a strategic advisor not do?
-How an investigator can become a strategic advisor.
-How stellar case management positions investigators as strategic advisors.
5 Steps to Creating an Ethical Work CultureCase IQ
You get it. Being an ethical organization matters. A lot.
But ethics isn’t just a quarterly HR campaign or a glossy conduct guide; in order to really have a bottom-line business impact, organizational ethics must function as an integral pillar of company culture over time.
So, what are the best practices to make sure your organization is regularly thinking about ethics and including it in everyday decision making? What are some creative ways to bring focus to this vital but often overlooked function? And how can you most effectively deal with and investigate an incident or a breach when it occurs?
How to Assess, Level Up, and Leverage Your Culture of ComplianceCase IQ
Compliance officers know that a strong culture of compliance is indispensable to risk management and better business performance in the modern world. So how, exactly, can you capture insights into the current state of your corporate culture, and then use that information to (1) shore up weak spots in ethics and compliance operations; and (2) leverage a strong culture of compliance for better operations across the enterprise?
Join Matt Kelly, Editor and CEO of RadicalCompliance.com, as he discusses how and why compliance leaders need to use data to improve their investigations and corporate culture.
Everything You Need to Get E&C Investigations Right (According to the DOJ)Case IQ
Internal investigations have long been a part of every ethics & compliance program and every E&C professional’s tool kit. However, the US Department of Justice has made clear that internal investigations are more important than ever.
In October 2021, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco reinstituted the substance of the Yates Memo, requiring companies to turn over all information on any culpable individuals. Recent criminal enforcement actions by the DOJ have thrown new and increasing scrutiny on internal investigations. Now, CCOs and CECOs must certify compliance in any FCPA settlement.
In short, getting E&C internal investigations right has taken on a new importance.
5 Ways to Build Employee Trust for Less Turnover and Fewer IncidentsCase IQ
Over the past few months, we’ve seen employees quit in record numbers. While there are many reasons for “The Great Resignation”, a standout is employee trust. A study from Gallup suggests that only one in three employees strongly agree that they trust the leadership of their organization.
Employees want to trust the companies they work at and the people they work with. They want to feel comfortable coming to HR with their complaints and concerns. But building trust takes time, and effort. As organizations are planning their post-pandemic strategies, now is a perfect time to place an intentional emphasis on building trust.
Hybrid Workplace Harassment: Are You Protecting Your Company from Hidden Thre...Case IQ
In today’s “new world of work,” many organizations run on a hybrid model, with some employees working remotely and others in the physical office. While this set-up is convenient, it can cause unique interpersonal issues between employees.
Reduced face-to-face communication makes it harder for teams to bond, while making it easier for harassers to get away with bad behavior. To reduce harassment incidents in your hybrid workplace, you need to foster a culture of openness, willingness to learn, and compassion.
Join workplace investigation and executive management expert Kenneth McCarthy as he outlines how to address and prevent hybrid workplace harassment incidents.
Finding Value Before a Crisis: How Workplace DEI Drives Revenue and Prevents ...Case IQ
The topic of workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion is at an all-time high right now. It has been proven that there is a direct correlation between inclusive workforces, productivity, and revenue. According to the McKinsey & Company diversity report, “companies in the top-quartile for ethnic and cultural diversity on executive teams were 33% more likely to have industry-leading profitability.”
Without a strong DEI program, though, your organization could face internal harassment incidents, discrimination lawsuits, high employee churn, and a poor corporate reputation, leading to lost customers and clients.
Join inclusive marketing consultant, speaker, and author Michelle Ngome as she outlines DEI best practices that will increase your organization’s revenue, as well as prevent workplace incidents.
How Not to Get Called Out on TikTok: Improving Your Brand Through Employer/Em...Case IQ
More and more, disgruntled employees have been taking to TikTok, Twitter, and other social media sites to share videos and posts of their bad work experiences. These stories are more likely than ever to go viral, which can lead to lost business, reputational damage, employee churn, and lawsuits, just to name a few unwelcome consequences for employers.
While some people might be acting in bad faith, employees have been finding tried traditional HR channels less than satisfactory. They feel un-heard and undervalued, and they turn to the internet to tell their stories, and receive fast responses.
You can’t build a brand or accomplish your mission statement without your employees. To avoid the repercussions of viral incidents and strengthen your brand, you have to repair your employer/employee relationship and work culture—or better yet, create a healthy, ethical culture from the start.
Join employment lawyer Janette Levey as she breaks down major viral incidents including Better.com, Starbucks, and Amazon, their consequences, and what to do to avoid them.

Misconduct or Missed Conduct? Ensuring Consistent SAR Reporting of Internal M...Case IQ
Case management is an integral component of any institution’s overall compliance program, let alone those with suspicious activity report (“SAR”) filing responsibilities. However, misconduct is often reported through multiple channels such as whistleblower complaints, HR, and even through a company’s legal department. If misconduct requires SAR filing, input from HR, and advice from legal, but comes in through possibly siloed teams, how can a company feel confident that they are accurately capturing and consistently dispositioning these cases?
The answer boils down to an often-overlooked area – case management systems.

In fact, systemic inequality is the norm for a vast number of workplaces throughout North America, Europe and beyond. And while the BLM and MeToo movements have received much media attention, the underlying factors that contribute to the inequality they point out aren’t always addressed.
Implicit, or unconscious, bias is the root of many systemic inequities in the workplace. It’s important that we recognize our personal biases, take action to mitigate them and actively serve as an ally to others.
On June 10, join Catherine Mattice-Zundel, president of Civility Partners, a training and consulting firm focused on helping organizations build positive workplace cultures, as she outlines strategies for uncovering and reducing implicit bias in workplace decision-making.
The webinar will cover:
● The origins of bias and four different types of bias
● Risk factors that increase our likelihood to engage in bias
● How to compensate for and attempt to overcome bias through clear and tangible actions
● Strategies to combat microaggressions and other exclusive behaviors using simple, tried and true
intervention methods

Preventing Bullying and Harassment Through Diversity and Inclusion in the Wor...Case IQ
In a 2019 Monster survey, 90 per cent of employees said they had experienced bullying in the workplace. The Pew Research Center reports that 69 per cent of women say they have been sexually harassed in a professional setting. These numbers point to a serious problem that leaders can’t afford to ignore.
Policies and training are, of course, critical to the prevention of bullying and harassment, but there are other avenues that you may not have considered. Diversity and inclusion have benefits that go far beyond compliance. Not only do companies that embrace diversity and inclusion outperform those that don’t, but understanding, accepting and valuing differences ensures a fairer, more collaborative environment with less conflict.
Join Catherine Mattice-Zundel, president of Civility Partners, a training and consulting firm focused on helping organizations build positive workplace cultures, as she explores strategies for using diversity and inclusion to prevent harassment and bullying.
The webinar will cover:
What constitutes bullying and harassment in the workplace
Best practices for addressing and preventing bullying and harassment
How diversity and inclusion helps to reduce bullying and harassment
How to achieve diversity and inclusion
Case studies of how bullying, inequities and harassment tie together, and how resolving one requires resolving all
Insider Threat: Cases and Controls to Prevent Internal Fraud and PreventionCase IQ

7 Ways to Increase Ethical Accountability and Decrease Fraud Risk Case IQ
It’s long been clear that organizations with strong ethical cultures perform better than those without. In addition to the multitude of positive impacts a strong ethical culture provides, these organizations will also typically experience less fraud and misconduct. However, to achieve maximum results, a strong ethical culture must focus on accountability and include robust fraud prevention measures.
Ethical accountability takes time and effort to build, but the rewards of fostering the right culture in an organization are measurable. Fewer fraud incidents, for example, can be demonstrated by hard numbers. A strong code of conduct is a great start, but it’s critical to have a comprehensive ethics program that fosters accountability.
Join Joseph Agins, CFE, CCEP, adjunct professor and fraud expert, as he outlines strategies organizations can use to ensure every employee from the C-Suite down has the tools they need to help them make ethical decisions and prevent fraud.
The webinar will cover:
The importance of tone from the top
Identifying the pressures employees face and thus the ethics and fraud risks
Understanding the resources employees have (or not) to report wrongdoing
Whether the internal imagining of the culture matches the reality
Developing tools and strategies for fostering ethics in the workplace
Anti-fraud measures that should be incorporated into every ethics policy
Encouraging ethics and accountability

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
