Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

An intention to behave in a certain
way toward someone or something.
13. 2-13
1. Major Components of Attitudes
• Consider the following three sentences, can
you find which element of attitudes should each
sentence belongs to?
1. I don’t like my supervisor.
2. My supervisor is unfair because he gave a
promotion to a coworker who deserved it less.
3. I will complained about my supervisor to
anyone who will listen and I am going to look
for another job.
14. 2-14
2. Consistency of Attitudes
Group Study
• If you are a tobacco executives and you
have found that there are a lot of data
linking cigarette smoking and negative
health outcomes, then, how will you cope
with the ongoing barrage of data? What is
the reason for you to cope with the barrage
in that way?
15. 2-15
2. Consistency of Attitudes
• People seek consistency among their
attitudes and between their attitudes and
their behavior
• When there is an inconsistency, the
individual may alter either the attitudes or
behavior, or develop a rationalization for
the discrepancy
16. 2-16
Cognitive dissonance
• Definition:
Cognitive Dissonance refers to any
inconsistency between two or more
attitudes, or between behavior and
attitudes
• Individuals seek to minimize dissonance,
the greater the dissonance is, the greater
the pressures to reduce it.
17. Cognitive dissonance
What will you do, when you have found that your
husband or wife is not the suitable one for you
anymore? When will you take an action to
reduce the cognitive dissonance?
• The desire to reduce dissonance is determined
by:
2-17
The importance of the elements creating the
dissonance
The degree of influence the individual believes he or
she has over the elements
The rewards that may be involved in dissonance
18. 2-18
The organizational implication of the
theory of cognitive dissonance
It can help managers to predict the propensity of
employees to engage in attitude or behavioral
change.
• There are three strategies for an individual to
reduce the dissonance :
1.Alter the attitudes
2.Alter the behavior
3.Develop a rationalization for the discrepancy
19. 2-19
Attitudes
Group Study:
“Behavior Always Follow from Attitudes”
Do you agree or disagree with this
statement? Explain Why.
20. 2-20
3. Does Behavior Always Follow
from Attitudes?
• Recent research indicates that attitudes (A) significantly
predict behaviors (B) when moderating variables are
taken into account.
A B
Moderating Variables
• Importance of the attitude
• Specificity of the attitude
• Accessibility of the attitude
• Social pressures on the individual
• Direct experience with the attitude
Moderating Variables
• Importance of the attitude
• Specificity of the attitude
• Accessibility of the attitude
• Social pressures on the individual
• Direct experience with the attitude
21. 2-21
3. Does Behavior Always Follow
from Attitudes?
Moderating Variables of the attitude-behavior relationship
• Importance of the attitude. ( Muslim and pork)
• Specificity of the attitude or behavior
(six month to stay V.S. dislike the job )
• Accessibility of the attitude
(easy to remember)
• The existence of social
pressures(a marriage with foreigners )
• A person’s direct experience
with the attitude ( an authoritarian supervisor )
22. 2-22
Self-Perception Theory
Attitudes are used after the fact to make sense
out of an action that has already occurred.
And, B A !
I had this same job with Marriott
as a trainer for 10 years. Nobody
force me to stay on this job. So I
must like it !
23. 2-23
Self-Perception Theory
• It means that behavior influences attitudes
reversely.
• It argues that attitudes are used after the fact to
make sense out of an action that has already
occurred rather than as devices that precede and
guide action. (Did you like your job before?)
• Tend to infer attitude from behavior when you
have had few experiences regarding an issue
• Attitudes likely to guide behavior when your
attitudes have been established for a while. It’s
the established attitudes that affect behaviors.
25. 2-25
Types of Attitudes
Job Satisfaction
A collection of positive and/or negative feelings that an
individual holds toward his or her job.
Job Involvement
Identifying with the job, actively participating in it, and
considering performance important to self-worth.
Organizational Commitment

Quiz1. What is the difference between Job
involvement and Organizational commitment?
26. 2-26
Types of Attitudes
High job involvement means identifying with one’s
specific job, whereas high organizational
commitment means identifying with one’s
organization.
27. 2-27

EX:An employee may be committed to an employer because she is
paid well and feels it would hurt her family to quit.
•Normative commitment:
An obligation to remain with the organization for moral or ethical
reasons.
Ex:An employee who is spearheading a new initiative may remain with an
employer because h feels it would “leave the employer in a lurch.” If he left.
Quiz: Which one is the significant predictor of job performance and turnover ?
28. 2-28
Types of Attitudes
Since you prefer it and trust its value
( have more affective commitment to it)
then we can expect that you will engage in your job
more easily.
Quiz:
Do you think that organizational commitment is still
important as a work-related attitude than it once was ?
29. 2-29
Types of Attitudes
To reflect today’s fluid workforce,
Which means that organization is incrementally
not identical to one’s career development,
so we might expect that something akin to
occupational commitment to become a more
relevant variable.
30. 2-30

Perceived Organizational Support (POS)
Degree to which employees feel the organization cares
about their well-being.

49. The Implication of Attitudes
2-49
• Attitudes give warnings of problems and influence behavior. Satisfied
and committed employees have lower rates of turnover,
absenteeism, and withdrawing behaviors.
• The most important action managers can take to raise employee
satisfaction is to focus on the intrinsic parts of the job, such as
making the work challenging and interesting.
• Managers should know that high pay alone is unlikely to create a
satisfying work environment.
• If employees are required to engage in activities that appear
inconsistent to them or are at odds with their attitudes, the pressure
to reduce the resulting dissonance will be lessened when employees
perceive that the dissonance is externally imposed and beyond their
control or that the rewards are significant enough to offset the
dissonance.

• Unconditioned response
• Conditioned stimulus
• Conditioned response
Learning a conditioned response involves
building up an association between
conditioned stimulus and unconditioned
stimulus. When the stimuli are paired, the
neutral one become a conditioned
stimulus and hence takes on the
properties of the unconditioned stimulus
56. Theories of Learning (cont’d)
Operant Conditioning
A type of conditioning in which desired voluntary
behavior leads to a reward or prevents a punishment.
Argues that people learn to behave to get something
they want or avoid something they don’t want
Key Concepts
• Reflexive (unlearned) behavior
• Conditioned (learned) behavior
• Reinforcement

57. Theories of Learning (cont’d)
Questions:
When performance-appraisal time comes, you find
that you are given no positive rewards for your
overtime work. What will you do?
Operant Conditioning:
Behavior is a function of its consequences.
58. Theories of Learning (cont’d)
Social-Learning Theory
People can learn through observation
and direct experience.
Individuals can learn by observing what happens to
other people and just being told about something, as
well as by direct experiences
Key Concepts: A behavioral model is important
• Attention processes
• Retention processes
• Motor reproduction processes
• Reinforcement processes

59. Theories of Learning (cont’d)
Questions:
Briefly reviewing the definitions of
operant conditioning and social learning theories
can you tell me the similarities and differences
between these two theories?
60. Theories of Learning (cont’d)
Similarity :
Social learning theory is an extension of operant
conditioning-that is, it assumes that behavior is a function of
consequences.
Difference:
Social learning theory acknowledges the existence of
observational learning and the importance of perception in
learning.
Note :People respond to how they perceive and define
consequences, not to the objective consequences
themselves.
62. Types of Reinforcement
Question:
• Since your kid likes to go to McDonalds
very much, when he is trying to utilize
crying and making disturbance to achieve
his objective, what will you do?
63. Types of Reinforcement
• Positive reinforcement
Providing a reward for a desired behavior.
• Negative reinforcement
Removing an unpleasant consequence when the
desired behavior occurs.
• Punishment
Applying an undesirable condition to eliminate an
undesirable behavior.
• Extinction
Withholding reinforcement of a behavior to cause its
cessation.
64. Types of Reinforcement
Question:
• Since there are four ways to shape the
behaviors of your employees, can you tell
me which one can strengthen the response
and which one will weaken the response?
65. Theories of Learning
Shaping Behavior
Systematically reinforcing each successive step that
moves an individual closer to the desired response.
Key Concepts
Key Concepts
• Reinforcement is required to change behavior.
• Some rewards are more effective than others.
• The timing of reinforcement affects learning speed
and permanence.

66. Theories of Learning
Question:
1. If you always use punishment to teach your kid
what will happen to your kid in the future?
2. Does money always work in shaping the
individual’s behavior? Why?
3. How do you feel when you are not tardy and your
manager will always compliment you with the same
words?
67. Schedules of Reinforcement
Continuous Reinforcement
A desired behavior is reinforced
each time it is demonstrated.
Intermittent Reinforcement
A desired behavior is reinforced
often enough to make the
behavior worth repeating but not
every time it is demonstrated.
•Fixed or variable interval
•Fixed or variable ratio
71. 2-71
Questions:
Please identify the right reinforcement schedules such as
continuous, fixed interval, variable interval, fixed ratio,
variable ratio for the following items
1. Slot machines
2. Monthly paychecks
3. A series of random visit to a company office by the
corporate office audit staff
4. An employee in a dressmaking factory is paid $5.00 for
every zipper installed
5. A salesman might get potential customers with 2 calls or
20 more calls.
72. 2-72
Questions:
• There are two major types of
reinforcement schedules. What are the
appropriate situations for these two
schedules to be applied respectively?
73. 2-73
Answer to this Questions
• Continuous reinforcers are appropriate for newly
emitted, unstable, or low-frequency responses
(e.g. getting a reward for a perfect score on an
exam)
• Intermittent reinforcers are appropriate for stable
or high-frequency responses (e.g. getting a
reward for a passing grade on an exam).
• Because:Continuous reinforcement
schedules can lead to early satiation and
Intermittent reinforcement dose not.
74. 2-74
Questions:
• If someone does not get perfect score frequently
and you want this perfect score to happen once
and once again which kind of schedule should
you adopt? Continuous or Intermittent?
• If someone always can pass the exam easily
and you want this guy to keep this behavior
which kind of schedule should you adopt?
Continuous or Intermittent?
• Satiation decides the difference.
75. 2-75
Questions:
• There are two major types of
reinforcement schedules, which one will
always lead to super performance?
76. 2-76
Answer to this Questions:
• In general, variable schedules tend to lead
to higher performance than fixed
schedules.
• Because : The employee tends to be
more alert because of the surprise factor.
77. 2-77
Questions:
Except the reinforcement which is
empathized in reinforcement theory can
you find another variable to affect the
behaviors of an individual?
78. 2-78
Answer to this Questions:
• Is the only reason we tell someone we
love them because we wish to obtain a
reward or to mold their behavior?
• Thoughts and feelings immediately follow
environment stimuli.
79. 2-79
Implications for Managers
• Ability
Effective selection process improves fit
Promotion and transfer based on abilities
Fine-tune job to better match abilities
• Attitudes – raise satisfaction by focusing on
making work challenging and interesting
• Learning – Use reinforcement instead of
punishment
