Five Stages of Social EntrepreneurshipYutakaTanabe
The document summarizes a presentation on defining five stages of social entrepreneurship: (1) opportunity, (2) individualized activity, (3) organized activity, (4) socialized activity, and (5) sustainability. It uses the example of Teach for America to illustrate how a social enterprise can progress through these stages, expanding its social mission from the work of an individual founder to having societal impact through policy change. The presentation draws on literature from entrepreneurship and non-profit management to develop this framework for understanding the development of social entrepreneurship.
Scaling Social Entrepreneurship MIT Sloan January 2015Robert H. Hacker
These slides present the major themes in an IAP course at MIT Sloan, Scaling Social Entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship is first defined, then the future direction of capitalism and social entrepreneurship is discussed. The SCALER Model is presented
The document discusses different terms used in social innovation like social entrepreneurship, social business, and social enterprise. It explains that social entrepreneurship refers to organizations that work to create lasting systems change through identifying unjust suffering, developing innovative solutions, and creating new equilibriums. Social businesses are for-profit companies with social missions where profits are reinvested rather than distributed. Social enterprises use market-based approaches to advance their social missions. The document uses examples like Teach for America, TOHL, Ten Thousand Villages, and Reforest Patagonia to illustrate where organizations fall on spectra of non-profit to for-profit and disruptive systems change to offsetting expenses through goods/services.

Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are examples of leaders who were made, not born. While both men possessed traits of successful leaders, it was their experiences, skills learned over time, and choices they made in response to challenges that allowed them to rise to leadership positions. Both built hugely successful companies - Gates with Microsoft and Jobs with Apple - through perseverance in the face of obstacles and rejection. They also used their wealth and influence to make large philanthropic contributions and advance causes like public health and education.
The document provides an overview of the book "Good to Great" by James C. Collins. It summarizes the book's key chapters and findings. The book studied companies that made the leap from good to great and sustained that growth. It found that these companies were led by Level 5 leaders who focused on the right people, confronting facts over dreams, and developing a clear "Hedgehog Concept". They also built cultures of discipline while maintaining entrepreneurial spirit. The research provides valuable lessons for transforming good companies into great and enduring ones.
The document discusses activating core values to enhance corporate productivity. It outlines how identifying, defining, and upholding core values can guide an organization's behavior and decision-making. Some key points made include: core values are the fundamental principles that dictate an organization's conduct; they should be visible in all aspects of operations and regularly reviewed; developing core values requires input from all staff and balancing conciseness with coverage of priorities; and upholding core values, even in difficult situations, demonstrates their true importance to the organization.

Top-line Thoughts on Creating a Digital Organisation Bolaji Okusaga
This document discusses considerations for transforming a communications business into a digital organization. It covers rethinking the business model, accelerating transformation by looking at trends and disruption, the four pillars of digital transformation being data, insight, ideas, and expression. It also discusses business model canvassing, goals and challenges of the transformation, possible new business lines, organizational structure, and ensuring audience connection during the change process.
Technology is changing the context, therefore tradition practice is not only in a flux, communication as we know it, in the traditional sense, is on its way out.
Strategic Communications is an anticipatory practice which attempts to foresee events, trends and issues which may develop to disrupt important relationships. There is a need for an alert scrutiny of social changes and outside forces - from current scenario analysis to wish-list planning - in order to find an appropriate way to monitor external environment and proffer better solutions to identified issues that might snowball into a Crisis and hurt or destroy the reputation of an organisation.
Recreating the context through digital transformation a precise presentationBolaji Okusaga
This document discusses digital transformation and how going digital changes business models. It covers how businesses are moving from analogue to digital models across various industries like publishing, commerce, banking, and news/film/music.

Case studies of digital businesses in industries like e-commerce, digital banking, and online news are also provided.
Made in Nigeria whither the route for NigeriaBolaji Okusaga
Defining the route to Industrialization for Nigeria is at once complex yet fluid. It is complex because there are a lot of man-made bottle necks and fluid because the comparative advantages are visible. This paper uses Porters Diamond Model to distill the possibilities for Nigeria on the route to "Made in Nigeria".
This presentation x-rays Nigeria's route to nationhood. Looking at Nigeria in the last 103 years, the presentation looks at challenges on the path to Nigeria's nationhood as well as opportunities and prospects for building a great nation.
The productive mind - How to move your moutainBolaji Okusaga
Life is a two-way street - you win or lose, succeed or fail. In-between these two extremes is faith and focus. Like the saying goes -"what you focus on grows". This presentation looks at the contribution of attitude to success.
Using social media strategy in building the corporate brand image is a route a lot of people imagine they know - what with the number of influencers, opinion leaders, trend watchers, and spotters laying claims to so-called virile strategy which generate likes, impressions and conversations. However, that is not all there is to capturing corporate essence in an era of great cynicism. Using Social Media as a route to build corporate stature requires the need to develop and manage strategic partnerships, the monitoring of trends and applications of knowledge from trends in building conversations while measuring the impact of efforts in order to intensify or discontinue a course of action. Beyond this, this presentation attempts a historical perspective of the social media phenomenon as well as platform possibilities looking at the Nigerian context.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

2. 1. Creating a Dual Personality
• The Corporate and the Individual
3. Introduction
REALITY
PRACTICE
• In the normal context, a company as
corporate citizen should have a
life, an essence and a personality
• This personality distinguishes the
Company from other companies
which offer similar products or
service.
• However, most companies as
corporate citizens take the definition
of their life, character and personality
from individuals who are either
founders or operators.
• Indeed, companies are defined by
the character and personalities of
their founders or those who run
them.
4. Defining the Interplay Between the
Corporate and CEO Personality
Culture
The
Corporate
Personality
Governance
The CEO
Personality
5. The CEO as the Mind of the Organization
The CEO
Values
Philosophy Character
Influence
The values, the philosophies and the characters of these
individuals usually rub-off on these entities and determine
their success or failures.
Hence, it is difficult to think about Apple without thinking of
Steve Jobs, or Microsoft without Bill Gates or Virgin without
Richard Branson or South-West Airlines without Herb
Kelleher or General Electric without Jack Welch.
6. The CEO and the Structure of Corporate
Thought
• The personality of the CEO
A change
agent
A deal maker
A hardline
technocrat
A quiet and
conservative
builder
A people
person
Corporate
Philosophy,
Corporate
Culture,
Values,
Character
The CEO
The CEO’s character has an impact on the direction of the company he / she
runs. Since the buck stops on the CEOs table, the direction of the enterprise is
certain to be shaped by his/her temperament.
A CEO that knows his onion will lead the charge
because there is no change without character
7. How the CEO Character Shapes the
Corporate View
Apple Under Steve Jobs
(Republican Views)
• Company does not do free or
Open Source Applications
• The IOS is closed and does not
interact with other
Applications
Google Under Larry Page
and Sergey Brin
(Democratic Views)
• Company does free and Open
Source Application
• Android is open and cheap to
access
8. The CEO as the Turn-around Master
Roberto Goizueta
Lou Gerstner
• Taking over from Lucian Smith,
rekindled the Coke appeal by
introducing far reaching
changes
• The high point of his era at
Coke was the introduction of
the diet brands and Coke
Classic
• A CUBAN IMMIGRANT
• He took over from John Akers
and brought back IBM from
the brink
• He prioritized the IT business
and grew earnings in that
division by over 50%
• He also embraced the internet
and drove an innovative
culture at IBM
COCA-COLA
IBM
Jack Welch
• Taking over from Reg Jones, he
re-ordered the priority of GE
• Moving GE out of White Goods
business having lost cost
advantage to Asian Companies
• He prioritized turbines,
healthcare and finance, making
GE America’s most loved
company
GE
9. Where are the Women
Carly Fiona
Indra Nooyi
Oprah Winfrey
• Under her, HP weathered
the storm of the dot-com
bubble, acquiring Compaq
and becoming one of the
strongest players in the
Computer hardware
market.
• According to BusinessWeek
since she started as CFO in
2000, the company's
annual revenues have risen
72%, while net profit more
than doubled, to $5.6
billion in 2006
• Credited with creating a
more intimate confessional
form of media
communication, she is
thought to have
popularized and
revolutionized the tabloid
talk show genre pioneered
by Phil Donahue
10. The Entrepreneur and the Empire
Builder
Sam Walton
Steve Jobs
Redefined retail business
Redefined the way we work,
consume information and
listen to music, bridging the
divide between arts and
science
Creating the Walmart
phenmenon – a Cocktail of
Retail, Vending and
Financial Services
Aliko Dangote
Moved from Haulage, to
Commodities Trading , to
Production, building a
diversified Conglomerate
and becoming Africa’s
richest Man
11. The Nigerian Example
Jim Ovia
• Redefined the concept of Banking in Nigeria by introducing On-Line-Real-Time
Banking and Convenience Banking before it became the minimum standard of entry
thereby beating Competitors like Guaranty Trust and Diamond Bank.
Fola Adeola and Tayo Adenirokun
• Pursued a value-added strategy that most bankers usually avoid in order to save cost
and created a differentiated value proposition
• Built banking halls with grandiloquent facades and boutique interior designs which
offered comfort and style and elevated customer experience using people and
technology
Eneli Kuku and Obiora
• Redefined health care delivery in Nigeria by being the first publicly quoted Hospital.
Through its access to funds from the capital market, it was able to raise enough funds
to procure state of the art medical equipment and hire experienced personnel
thereby raising the bar in private health care delivery
13. Corporate Governance and the
Institutional Route to Creating Value
The Struggle
Between Enterprise
and the Individual
Corporate Governance
often lays water-tight
rules which prevent
individuals from overpowering an enterprise
The Transition…
The Laissez-faire Order
Enlightened Self
Interest
The Era of Regulation
This perspective looks
at an enterprise as
institutional citizen
which must be
protected
The Power
Dynamics
The Era of the Triple
Bottomline
The Era of Sustainability
Institutional Power
against the charisma
and genius of the
Individual
14. Does Corporate Governance Limit
Individual Initiative?
The Basis – Guided Leadership
• The believe that concentration of too much power in the hands
of an individual may be counter-productive as such individual
may become power drunk or corrupt.
• The thinking is that creating processes and procedures as
opposed to allowing the discretion of the CEO prevail all the
time, is a better route to attaining growth and stability of the
enterprise.
The Individual’s point of Departure – The Place of
Genius and Charisma
• Under the same rules – Jack Welch is
different from Jeff Immelt and Steve Jobs
is different from Tim Cook
15. The Clash of Corporate Vision and the Will of the
Individual
The battle between John
Sculley and Steve Jobs
The decision of the board
to side with John Sculley
The exit of Steve Jobs
The fall of Apple
The return of human will
in driving corporate vision
The rise of Apple
16. No!
Its Not the Individual, it’s the Collective…
The American Hero
Striking a Balance
The Asian Example
• Under the American
Context, the CEO has the
power to create
exceptional shareholder
value, he or she also has
the power to destroy
value and given the need
to keep value growing.
• Despite the power of the
CEO, organizations need
to strike the right balance
• Let’s look at the success of
Asian companies like
Toyota, Honda, Tata,
Samsung, LG and Hyundai –
who are the Icons?
• Beginning to outperformed
their American counterpart
and conquering the world.
