Water infrastructure issues pose risks for municipalities and insurers according to a document about a Canadian Water Summit. The document discusses how water losses make up a large portion of insurance claims and presents a risk assessment tool to help municipalities evaluate risks related to water system design, operations, watershed characteristics, and development policies. It quotes Lau Tzu saying water is flexible and can overcome what is firm and strong.

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.

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

7. Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water. Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it. So the flexible overcome the adamant, the yielding overcome the forceful. Lau Tzu Founder of Taoism
Editor's Notes
Good afternoon, and thank you ?? For that kind introduction. I am very pleased to be here today on behalf of Insurance Bureau of Canada to moderate today’s closing panel “Water as a Municipal Economic Driver”. It is my great pleasure to introduce you to our panelists today. They are: Jane Comeault, Sustainability Strategist, with Metro Vancouver Wayne Galliher: Water Conservation Project Manager, Waterworks Division, Environmental Services, City of Guelph Glen Laubenstein Chief Administrative Officer, City of Winnipeg Dr. Cynthia Wesley-Esquimaux, Assistant Professor, Aboriginal Studies, Faculty of Social Work, University of Toronto Today, you will be hear brief presentations from each of us. You will hear 5 unique perspectives on policies, programs and ideas that will shape our water future – how it is used, priced, supplied, managed. We will also touch on how governments are preparing for adaptation to climate change. Then, we will have our panel discussion, where we touch on any and all of the issues raised. I look forward to a lively discussion, and of course, lots of interesting questions from the audience today. Now, let me give you a bit of background on Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC) and why the insurance industry is so interested in the water issue. IBC represents over 200 home, car and business insurers operating in Canada. We act on our members’ behalf on matters affecting the industry and consumers. Of course, we work on traditional insurance-related priorities, but we also work on big-picture issues, such as road safety, insurance crime, consumer education… and adaptation to climate change.
We all know climate change is here. We need only look out our windows or turn on the news to see its effects. Climate change, and the increased severe weather it brings, has been a game-changer the insurance industry. Storms that used to happen every 100 years are now happening - in some cases - several times a decade. As you can imagine, that creates a lot of excess water, and leads to a lot of damage. We know that water damage causes about $1.3 billion a year in insured losses - making it the leading cause of damages to homes in Canada. This is a significant change from, say 50 years ago, or even more recently…when the biggest threat to our homes was fire. Our data shows that this is no longer the case. The graph you see here shows what has been happening in claims for damages to homes since 1993. The red line indicates fire losses, which have pretty well stayed even… The blue line is water. You can see that water claims have climbed dramatically. Wind and hail have also increased.
When you add Canada’s aging water infrastructure to the mix, which wasn’t built to handle the excessive amount of water we’re seeing… Houston (or should I say Canada), we have a problem. Our infrastructure wasn’t designed to handle the excess water we are receiving. It has no where to go but our roads, our basements and homes.
In 2008, IBC struck a committee to develop a strategy for addressing adaptation to climate change. Our goals are clear: Communities must be ready to withstand the impacts of climate change. All levels of government must contribute to making the necessary changes to bolster preparation. And – individual citizens must recognize how they, too, can play a role in adaptation…how they can make a difference through how they live and where they live. As part of this work, we are pioneering the development of a web-based scoring mechanism that will provide municipalities with a visual representation of their at-risk zones. It will enable them to identify their greatest infrastructure vulnerabilities and plan, and build, accordingly. And, it will help our industry better understand and underwrite the risks. The program we are developing will help us understand the risk of infrastructure failure. It will collect and analyze key municipal data, such as:
The age and design of sewer and surface water systems; The maintenance and operation of those systems; The urban development policies that influence system capacity; and Topographical features like elevation and soil type, which affect risk and vary broadly within large urban centres. Currently, nothing like this program exists. We are breaking new ground. We plan to test-pilot the program in 20 municipalities in Canada, We are working closely with Hamilton, Fredericton and Winnipeg for the proof of concept and are aiming to launch it for wide-spread use in 2012. When the project comes to fruition, we hope to have a new tool to help communities become more resilient. The development of this software solution is just one way for us to reach out to all levels of government – federal, provincial and municipal – to address adaptation and to deal with water issues.
In conclusion, let me, share with you a quote from Lau Tzu – Chinese philosopher and the founder of Taoism. He said: Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water. Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it. So the flexible overcome the adamant , the yielding overcome the forceful . Lau Tzu was speaking metaphorically about how people ought to live their lives. But I think we can ponder a more literal interpretation of this quote, in a way that supports my main topics today of water and adaptation. When dealing with something as potent as water, it behooves us to be flexible and yielding. Or, in other words, we must learn to adapt . There’s a limit to what we can achieve if the only plan is to hold back the water by force. The insurance industry in Canada is proposing that we embrace this spirit of adaptation – accepting that severe weather is bringing more water to deal with, accepting that water will find its course, and the best we can do is give it more space to go. Modernizing and expanding our sewer systems; creating areas for deliberate flooding; learning to live and work far away from areas where we know flooding will occur; And, yes, even through the use of rain barrels. Solutions must come from all levels. Federal and provincial governments need to make a contribution. At the same time, most solutions need to be implemented at the municipal and community levels. And there are things we can do as individuals. In other words, we all have a role to play. In that spirit, let’s move on to our first presenter of the panel.
