This document provides guidance on working with vendors. It begins by defining vendors as individuals or groups that provide needed skills to help complete another group's projects. It then discusses the stages of the vendor relationship from determining a need for a vendor, to searching for and selecting a vendor, to ongoing management of the relationship. Key aspects covered include determining project needs, finding a vendor's strengths, checking references, establishing expectations, and saying goodbye respectfully when the relationship ends. The overall message is that vendors and clients should work as a team to get the most value from their partnership.
Fran Zablocki, mStoner strategist, and Rob Zinkan, Vice Chancellor for External Affairs at Indiana University East, discuss lifetime engagement management and lifecycle relationship systems in higher education. From the first day that a prospect opens your admissions materials, they have a relationship with you. This is a one-to-one, lifelong relationship between the university and an individual, not a many-to-one relationship between different departments of a university and a prospect, student, alumnus or donor. When each stage of the relationship cycle is run by a different team in a different silo with a different technology, our half of the relationship seems schizophrenic, forgetful, and thoughtless. Today’s admissions prospect is next decade’s donor, and that is why your admissions team needs to meet with your student affairs team and your alumni team and get on the same page. Hear from Rob’s first-hand experience as he and his team at Indiana tackle these challenges. If you’re interested in the big picture – how all the stages of the relationship between your audience and you are interconnected and interdependent – and want to take the next step for yourself and your school toward a holistic, inclusive approach to managing those relationships – you'll want to check out these slides.

How To Write Like a Human - by Claire DawsonZeus Jones
There’s a lot of angst out there about writing. So, here’s a primer on how to tackle the job of writing when you feel like you just don’t know what to say (or when you feel like you do know what to say, but you have no idea how to say it).

How do you build a homepage that serves the competing needs of 64 campuses, millions of prospective and enrolled students and alumni, and more than 88,000 employees? Create two home pages. That's what SUNY and mStoner did for the nation's largest comprehensive public university system.
Information Architecture is the backbone of your website, and needs to be considered strategically in the context of design, user experience, interaction design and more. Get a crash course in IA from Fran Zablocki, digital strategist at mStoner.
From the very first day that a prospect opens your admissions materials, they have a relationship with you. This is a one-to-one, lifelong relationship between the university and an individual, not a many-to-one relationship between different departments of a university and a prospect, a student/ alum, and a donor.
Each stage of the relationship cycle is staffed by a different team in a different silo with a different technology and this is harming the most important currency we have with our constituents: affinity. Today’s admissions prospect is next decade’s donor — whether you work in alumni, admissions, student affairs or anywhere else on campus, you need to get on the same page and play as a team.
The typical 500 lb. gorilla of web projects in higher education is the complete campus-wide redesign and CMS implementation – but what about all the little 10 lb. monkeys? Yes, you know what I’m talking about. Those little monkeys that jump on your back every time someone walks into your office and says, ‘Hey, I have this idea for a website!’
Completely overhauling your main website may be an all-consuming task for nine months every four years, but the smaller projects in between are just as important and there are many more of them. For example, maybe…
you have a research institute that needs a new website to reach their unique faculty peer and professional association audiences.
you need to build and launch a microsite for admissions–quickly–to boost yield in the incoming class.
you need a blog aggregation site, or a social media campaign hub, or a campus anniversary celebration site, or any number of others.
Or maybe it isn’t the project that is small — maybe you work in a small team. Maybe you are even one of the many ‘Armies of One‘ out there who have to do it all – web content management, social media, html/css, wireframing, usability testing, and more – and now you’re being tasked with tackling that 500 lb. relaunch gorilla – hm, that might hurt a bit.
Are you nodding your head? Does this sounds familiar? Well then you should come to our next mStoner webinar on small team and small project strategy and success. mStoner strategist Fran Zablocki will share his experiences working in higher education and for mStoner to address a number of questions:
What are the challenges that smaller web teams face to produce great websites?
What are the limits to what you can accomplish with the resources and skills you have?
What are the advantages (yes, there are some!) to being small or focusing on a smaller scale project?
What tools are our there that are a good fit for small projects and small teams?
In the Shadow of the Colossi: Alumni Online Communities in the Age of Faceboo...Francis Zablocki
Your alumni online community can’t compete with Facebook for social conversations, and it can’t compete with LinkedIn for career connections – so don’t even try. It can, however, provide tools and information that alumni cannot find anywhere else. Find out how to combine the benefits of your proprietary network with the major social media outlets to create a one stop toolkit to help your alumni do what they want to do quickly and easily.
Unlike admissions, where the demographic is largely homogeneous in terms of age and technological aptitude, alumni span many different generations and a wide spectrum of comfort levels with technology and preferences for media consumption. It is a real challenge to successfully leverage the right online tools for the right alumni sub-audience while keeping everything under one cohesive brand.
I hope my experience at SUNY Geneseo as manager of the U-Knight launch project and ongoing role as online community manager can help others who are undertaking such projects. I’ll speak about the approach I took to U-Knight and what progress and stumbling blocks have been encountered along the way.
Specifically this presentation will be useful for those working with:
* Harris Connect, iModules, and other online alumni directory software
* Alumni relations websites
* Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn pages that are targeted towards alumni audiences

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
