This document provides details on Bader Company's trade show portfolio and objectives for their attendance at the 2015 SSA Fall Trade Show & Conference in Las Vegas from September 8-11. Bader will have a 20'x20' booth at this major annual event for the self-storage industry. Their objectives are to strengthen relationships with top clients, inform clients and prospects on increasing tenant insurance participation, and introduce their new Bader U online portal. Measurable goals include meeting with top clients, targeting lower revenue clients, obtaining 25 new leads, and showing the Bader U video to at least 20 people. Strategies outlined include pre-show marketing, scheduled meetings, tablets with program information, and lead retrieval/follow-up
The document describes specifications for several high-rise buildings including:
- Tower blocks ranging from 27 floors up to an iconic 130m tower, with unit sizes ranging from studios to 5 bedroom flats.
- Building features include double height basements, 3.1m floor to ceiling heights, swimming pools, helipads, and facade treatments with GRC jalli screens.
- Unit specifications provided for some tower blocks including bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, balconies, and prices ranging from 3-4 crore rupees per flat.
The document summarizes five major events that took place at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) in November:
1) A Career Fair that saw 42 companies meet with AIT students.
2) A Research Exhibition where students presented their work.
3) An Open House that welcomed prospective students.
4) A Cultural Show that featured performances from different countries.
5) An international women's cricket tournament hosted at AIT.
The events highlighted AIT's international orientation, academic excellence, and welcoming environment.
1) Albatrosses can travel for months over open oceans covering thousands of miles and live mostly at sea, only coming to land to breed. Their wingspan can reach up to 11.5 feet.
2) Hummingbirds are the smallest birds, with some species weighing just 1.8 grams. They can hover, fly backwards and upside down thanks to wings that can twist and move in figure-eight patterns.
3) Many animals such as Arctic terns, gray whales and monarch butterflies undertake long distance seasonal migrations, sometimes traveling over thousands of miles, in response to changes in food availability, weather and breeding cycles.

O documento apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa sobre o desempenho do setor hoteleiro em Salvador em 2014. Os principais achados são: 1) os meses de junho e julho, durante a Copa do Mundo, tiveram as melhores taxas de ocupação, diária média e RevPar; 2) houve um crescimento de 12,26% no RevPar médio anual em 2014 em comparação com 2013; 3) os hotéis menores, com até 20 unidades, tiveram as maiores diárias e RevPar.
What do next generation leaders say they need to be 'future ready'? This report is from 200+ next generation leaders attending the #AICPA_EDGE Conference in Las Vegas in August, 2016.
Next Gen leaders will be called to lead in a different environment than many leaders of the past. These times of exponential change will require a different skill set. They will be leading in transformational and adaptive times which require new skills and new practices.
This report highlights top challenges, top skills, insights from the session and more.
These polls were integrated during a presentation on "The Future Ready CPA" where we covered the 5 C's - Context, Certainty, Capacity, Competency, and Core Purpose & Values.
We are living in “exponential times” where the size, scale and scope of change is incredible. That means there are incredible opportunities for those who can see through the fog of uncertainty and anticipate what’s next. The biggest opportunity is to harness the wisdom of our older generations with the fresh perspectives of the tech-savvy younger generations. The next generation of leaders is enthusiastically ready to have a seat at the table. The future is not created; the future is co- created. Let’s get to work!

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

The importance of sustainable and efficient computational practices in artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning has become increasingly critical. This webinar focuses on the intersection of sustainability and AI, highlighting the significance of energy-efficient deep learning, innovative randomization techniques in neural networks, the potential of reservoir computing, and the cutting-edge realm of neuromorphic computing. This webinar aims to connect theoretical knowledge with practical applications and provide insights into how these innovative approaches can lead to more robust, efficient, and environmentally conscious AI systems.

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdfBen Linders
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.
