7 Trends Impacting Your Staffing Firm in 2018 and BeyondCareerBuilder
This document discusses 7 trends impacting staffing firms in 2018 and beyond. It finds that referrals are still the top driver for new business but proof is also needed to get hired. The buying process is increasingly happening online, so firms need an online presence. Online reputation is also important for both prospects and candidates. There is a rise in non-traditional employment like freelancing. Pre-hire candidate engagement can impact opportunities. Service expectations are rising as dissatisfied customers share their experiences. Finally, relationships between account managers, recruiters, and clients are key to service success.
John Doherty discusses building an effective content marketing machine. He explains that a content machine requires ideation, creation, promotion, and measurement of content on a consistent basis. He provides examples from his experience at HotPads, where they developed a process to ideate topics, create high-quality content such as data visualizations and maps on a regular schedule, promote the content through various channels, and measure the results to optimize their strategy over time. Their process involved developing an initial MVP approach and gradually scaling up the team, systems, and promotion of their content marketing efforts.

The document proposes a new product called Automated Promotion Maker (APM) that was previously known as Dynamic Proposition Builder. APM would automate how companies implement promotional strategies in their transactional systems like Siebel CRM. It aims to reduce the time it takes for marketing strategies to go live from weeks/months to just 1 day. The author is seeking an investment of ZAR 4.5 million to develop APM over 8 months. It would use technologies like Siebel, ESB, CEP and Java in a hybrid cloud/on-premise architecture. The investment would provide 20% equity in the project and help address the slow pace at which companies currently deploy new marketing strategies.

This activity discusses the listening dilemma that arises due to differences in speaking and hearing rates. While the average person speaks at around 150 words per minute, we can hear at about 1,000 words per minute, leaving extra time that is often spent thinking of other things rather than focusing on the speaker. This highlights listening as a challenge and why many people are not good listeners. Tips are provided on how to stay focused on the speaker and what they are saying to improve listening skills.
Aye Ne Win-The Grandson of Former Dictator Ne Win.pdfMYO AUNG Myanmar
Aye Ne Win-The grandson of former dictator Ne Win
In the life of Aye Ne Win nothing is normal. Born in 1976 into the most powerful family in the country, that of omnipotent ruler Ne Win, the dictator’s grandson sat front row during key events in Myanmar’s history. Later the family name became a burden that landed him a lengthy prison sentence over an alleged coup plot.
From an early age Aye Ne Win learned that he was not a normal child. His mother, Daw Sandar Win, taught him how to behave responsibly and wave at the passing motorcades of visiting dignitaries.
At school some children had a hard time adjusting to their prominent fellow pupil. “When I was eight years old one of my friends told me my lunchbox was stolen,” Aye Ne Win said. “When I checked they had returned the box. My food was still in it. It turned out they had wanted to take a look at what I ate. They were disappointed I ate the same food as anybody else.”
Aye Ne Win, a well-groomed dandy with a slightly chubby posture, sat down for the interview at a cousin’s house. The Ne Win family’s lakeside residence is off limits to journalists and photographers.
When he was 12, Myanmar, then still called Burma, faced turbulent times. Millions joined protests against the junta that culminated in a national uprising on August 8, 1988. On that historical date protests and strikes paralysed the country. The army reacted with force. About 3,000 demonstrators were killed in a bloody crackdown.
“When the army shoots, it shoots to kill,” Ne Win had warned.
For Aye Ne Win the protests didn’t signify anything special. He mostly stayed in. “I and my family never felt we were in danger. There were demonstrations, yes, but we didn’t feel threatened at all. We went about our usual routine.”

How Business Model Innovation intertwines with Design Thinking and Agile Deve...Tobias Schimmer
In 2009, SAP decided to implement Lean and Agile Software Engineering practices within its global development organization. Lean management and agile practices like Scrum helped SAP to become more efficient and predictable in delivering its software. However, Scrum starts with a product vision – where does that come from? Design Thinking helped, but did not yet solve the “Innovator’s Dilemma” which almost any big company faces after many years of success. Hence, we had to explore new ways and approaches to come up with innovative product ideas and business models for the ever faster changing and evolving enterprise software market. Combining Agile and DT with Business Model Innovation (BMI) practices and providing adequate project coaches finally did the trick for SAP: while lean thinking and agile project management improved many feasibility aspects, BMI practices tackle commercial success and viability, especially in the new cloud-based environment...
