This first investigation phase ended with the conclusion that more preparation was needed before outsourcing.
Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of a stable internal environment in the body despite changes in the external environment. It is important for organisms to regulate their internal environment to maintain independence from external environmental fluctuations. The human body regulates many internal factors through the nervous and renal systems. The nervous system uses the parasympathetic and sympathetic systems to regulate responses, while the renal system filters blood and reabsorbs necessary molecules through nephrons in the kidneys to control fluid and electrolyte balance.

Global Problems and Global Solutions According to the WTODr.Rehana Parveen
The World Trade Organization (WTO) is the only global organization that deals with international trade rules between nations. In 2009, the WTO held a public forum called "Global Problems, Global Solutions" to discuss various issues relating to multilateral trade. Key topics discussed included the roles of business, commodity prices, climate policies, protectionism, and strengthening the rule of law to promote global governance. Responsibility for addressing these problems lies with the WTO, governments, and business leaders. The WTO can help solve the current financial crisis by increasing trade liberalization and preventing protectionism. However, it needs reforms to give developing countries more voice in decision making and stop discriminatory practices.

Lessons from DJI in the Drone Industry - Dave Litwiller - May 24 2017Dave Litwiller
DJI is an outstanding success story. The Shenzhen headquartered company has rapidly and organically achieved a commanding global market presence in one of the fastest growing technology industries of the past decade, small unmanned aircraft systems, commonly known as drones. DJI’s execution has been superb. The company has exhibited a nearly unique ability to advantageously combine several distinctive assets and institutional behaviors: the capabilities of the domestic Chinese producer ecosystem, large scale centralized-decentralized innovation within the enterprise, tight integration of organizational and technical activities, and, an incredible will to win. Through these strengths, DJI has attained global dominance in its chosen product categories. The company serves as a leading example of how other developers and manufacturers of high technology can innovate, and will increasingly need to do so, as future global technology leaders emanate from China in the mode of DJI.
