Effective organization in a context of organizational development
The document discusses organizational development and the components of an effective organization. It describes organizational development as the process through which an organization develops the internal capacity to be the most effective in its mission work and sustain itself over the long term. It outlines several core components of an effective organization, including vision, mission and values; governance; strategic thinking and planning; program development and implementation; evaluation, learning and accountability; human resource management; and others.
Organizational development interventions
This document discusses various types of organizational development interventions. It begins by defining intervention and describing criteria for effective interventions. It then discusses factors that impact the success of interventions, including those relating to the change situation and target of change. Various intervention types are covered such as team interventions, inter-group and third party interventions, and comprehensive OD interventions involving the whole system. Structural interventions involving redesigning the organization are also outlined. Presentation sections provide details on specific interventions like team building, process consultation, and socio-technical system design.
Organizational Development
This document provides an overview of organizational development (OD) including its history, models, theories, key concepts, and strategies. It discusses early influences on OD such as T-groups, action research, and quality of work life programs. Models of change including those by Lewin, Schein, Kilmann, and Porras and Robertson are summarized. Core OD values like participation, empowerment, and teams are covered. Finally, strategies like parallel learning structures and the normative-reductive approach are outlined.
Diagnosing Organizational Effectiveness
The document discusses diagnosing organizational effectiveness through a comprehensive three-level model examining the organization, groups within the organization, and individuals.

The Joy of Data Driven Storytelling
We are bombarded with 174 newspapers worth of information each day and in order to get your message to cut through the noise, you need to be simple to understand, provide value, and if possible, evoke an emotional response. By combining hard data with beautiful visuals, you have a fighting chance to stand out. As my good friend Joe Chernov likes to say: "The secret to breaking through a noisy landscape isn't more noise. It is sounding different."
What's more, there is a high likelihood that you will have a lot of fun in the process. Heck, I would even argue you will feel actual JOY. Why? By returning to the basics of storytelling, you are tapping into the origins of how you learned to communicate as a child -- from using colors and shapes, to employing mixed media. Just because you are a grown up doesn't mean you shouldn't still draw about these early stage arts.
Formal & informal organisational
The document discusses formal and informal organization structures. It defines formal organization as having a predefined hierarchy, policies, and procedures. Features include job specialization and division of work. Benefits are clear objectives and communication. Limitations include loss of initiative. Informal organization arises from social needs and has no set structure. It promotes communication and creativity but can cause role conflicts. The contingency theory states an organization's structure depends on factors like the environment and people. Both formal and informal structures should be integrated to reduce conflicts and use informal channels for information sharing.
RA 7877 Sexual Harassment Act
The document summarizes the key points of the Anti-Sexual Harassment Act of 1995 in the Philippines. The act declares all forms of sexual harassment in employment, education, and training environments unlawful. It defines work-related and education/training-related sexual harassment and establishes classifications of offenses from grave to light. Employers have duties to prevent harassment, investigate complaints, and face liability for inaction. Individuals can also pursue legal damages. Violators face fines and imprisonment under the law.

Open Source Software (OSS) applications in libraries: Special Reference to Se...
ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has transformed the libraries‟ working environment entirely. Today, most of the libraries have been performing their routine works with the assistance of computer technology and this technology has brought with it many benefits such as advancement; reduction in work timing, reduced man power, data preservation and security etc. In this era of technology, Internet is an indispensible phenomenon and has been providing so many technical supports especially in the field of library and information science in the form of
Open Sources Software (OSS). These days open sources softwares are becoming prevalent due to its immense significance. The Open Sources software provides free and easy accesses to the libraries as well as users can do changes and modification in it as well as they can run, copy, share, and improve the software with the desired requirements.
Foss In Undergraduate Studies
Free and open source software (FOSS) allows users access to human-readable source code that can be modified and redistributed, allowing software to evolve more rapidly than proprietary alternatives. FOSS has gained significant momentum in recent years as large software companies now compete with commercially available open source options. This rise in FOSS popularity has also increased scholarly interest across disciplines such as sociology, economics, and social psychology.

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.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
Choosing The Best AWS Service For Your Website + API.pptx
Have you ever been confused by the myriad of choices offered by AWS for hosting a website or an API?
Lambda, Elastic Beanstalk, Lightsail, Amplify, S3 (and more!) can each host websites + APIs. But which one should we choose?
Which one is cheapest? Which one is fastest? Which one will scale to meet our needs?
Join me in this session as we dive into each AWS hosting service to determine which one is best for your scenario and explain why!
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
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.

It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
