McKinsey on Finance
The document summarizes an article from the McKinsey on Finance publication. The article discusses treating mergers and acquisitions (M&A) as a strategic capability that can provide competitive advantages. It identifies four institutional capabilities companies need to build to successfully approach M&A as a strategic capability: engaging in M&A thematically, managing their reputation as acquirers, confirming the strategic vision during due diligence, and reassessing synergy targets throughout the deal lifecycle. Developing these capabilities can help companies realize the full potential of M&A for growth.

World Economic Forum: The power of analytics for better and faster decisions ...
This document summarizes the key findings of PwC's 2016 Global Data and Analytics Survey. The survey polled over 2,100 senior business leaders across 50 countries and 15 industries about their strategic decisions between now and 2020. The survey found that most respondents believe their strategic decisions will significantly increase shareholder value but that they face limitations in decision-making due to resource constraints rather than limitations in data analysis capabilities. Additionally, the survey found that while companies are ambitious about improving decision speed and sophistication through greater use of machine learning and analytics, they expect to fall short of these ambitions by 2020.
Case Analysis Campbell Soup
Campbell Soup Ltd. needs to take actions to keep growing and outpacing competition in the next five years. The company has strong supplier ties and efficient plant operations as strengths. However, it faced problems with mushroom and chicken farms in 1988. Opportunities include pursuing the private label market and doing independent market research for new products. Threats are internally if the company rests on past success, and from the FTA lowering barriers for American firms. The recommendation is for Campbell to further expand in private labels, improve plant efficiency, cut ties with headquarters on decisions, and conduct own market research.
New models of healthcare, Oliver Wyman at For Later Life 2014

The goal is to improve outcomes and lower costs through coordinated, preventative and patient-centered care for the most complex patients.

37279739 bausch-and-lomb-case-study
Bausch & Lomb faced a crisis when its contact lens solution Renu MoistureLoc was linked to fungal eye infections. While the CDC did not definitively link the product to infections, many users who developed infections had used Renu. B&L was criticized for not taking prompt action when initial reports emerged in Asia in 2005. In 2006, as more U.S. cases were reported, B&L suspended U.S. shipments and asked retailers to remove Renu from shelves. However, experts argued B&L should have recalled the product sooner and communicated more clearly with customers. The slow response damaged B&L's reputation and market share in lens care.
Bcg the-art-of-successful-acquisition-oct-2015 tcm9-18798
BCG takes a systematic 4-step approach to target identification and acquisition:
1. Analyze industries and opportunity segments to determine where to pursue acquisitions.
2. Identify specific target companies by qualifying a long list according to strategic fit and value creation logic.
3. Continuously monitor potential targets and prepare to pursue those that become available.
4. Conduct detailed due diligence on priority targets to evaluate strategic fit, value creation potential, and key risks.
EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook, Q2 | April 2022
The theme for this quarter is rearrangement. The loss, or potential loss, of Russian oil and gas supplies is forcing producers, refiners and traders to rethink the flow of crude oil and refined products from the wellhead to the gas pump in light of sanctions, potential sanctions and the risk of reputational damage. Countries, companies and consumers will all be searching for ways to adapt, and the outcome of the race to bring alternatives to market could alter the global energy landscape for years to come.
It is likely crude oil and LNG prices will remain elevated for some time. The process of diverting Russian oil through countries unwilling to sanction it will take time and there is little indication OPEC members are willing (or able) to increase production to make up for the loss of Russian crude. Spare capacity sat at 3.7 mbpd at the end of 2021, just above where it was in January 2020. Currently, sanctioned Venezuelan and Iranian production (about 3 mbpd below their peak) could fill the gap, but political and commercial obstacles remain. At today’s prices, US shale production is attractive, but the fastest the industry has been able to grow is between 1mbpd and 2mbpd per year. The LNG infrastructure was already stretched before the war in Ukraine and there is little prosect of finding new supplies soon.
As the largest buyer of Russian energy, Europe will be the epicenter. There is a deeply embedded bias there in favor for renewable energy, and the current crisis is certain to result in an all-out effort to accelerate the build-out of wind and solar power. The capacity to add new green energy is limited though by the project pipeline and supply chains for solar panels and wind turbines, and it is likely that much of the shortfall will be made up with the new LNG infrastructure.

Strategy Study 2014 | A.T. Kearney
A.T. Kearney reached out to more than 2,000 executives, business leaders, and heads of strategy functions to discuss their thoughts on the state of strategy today. Our findings indicate that while most leaders continue to believe in strategy, the return on their strategy initiatives has largely eroded over the past decade. In fact, when asked what it takes to secure a prosperous future, more than 80 percent of executives consider agility as important or more important than strategy when it comes to securing a prosperous future. Fortunately, the findings also point to promising ways to reclaim strategy—including using future-focused tools and techniques and engaging the organization in strategy formulation.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
