In many organizations under pressure to change, skills are necessary but insufficient to protect workers from being left out or left behind by company plans. A skilled worker needs more -- and needs to know that they need more.
Human capital diagnostics and assessments are vital tools for organizations to prevent expensive mistakes in hiring, training, and managing talent. However, few organizations properly analyze and interpret diagnostic results or implement appropriate HR measures. While most track basic people metrics like turnover, few link these metrics to strategic goals or use them to help meet targets. Proper use of tools like engagement surveys, followed by analysis, action, and measurement, can help organizations optimize their human capital and guide strategic execution.

The document discusses identifying stakeholders and conducting stakeholder analysis. It defines stakeholders as any entity with interest in a policy or reform. Stakeholder analysis helps identify existing support and opposition to change, and focuses efforts on building partnerships. The analysis involves collecting data on stakeholders' interests, influence, and impact from potential changes through interviews and questionnaires. Stakeholders are then mapped on a matrix based on their interest and power to identify those who can enable or resist changes. The results of the analysis inform a communication plan to effectively engage different stakeholders.

Stakeholders management is a concept that transformed the whole management paradigm. The reality where stakeholders have the rights to access information has brought about an era of transparency in the companies that have to live with the risk of revealing sensitive information.
Stakeholders management is after all a matter that affects corporate governance.
The priority is to identify and evaluate stakeholders correctly. Besides, it is important to understand that stakeholders are a dynamic community, with changing vision, expectations and perceptions.
This document provides guidance on stakeholder analysis, which is an important tool for conservation projects. It defines stakeholders as those with interests in natural resources or who will be impacted by a project. Conducting stakeholder analysis can help identify key stakeholders, potential conflicts, engagement opportunities, and appropriate engagement strategies. The analysis should be done at the start of a project during planning and situation analysis, and continued throughout the project cycle to engage stakeholders and monitor engagement effectiveness. The key steps in analysis are: 1) Identifying stakeholders and their interests; 2) Assessing influence, importance, and impact on stakeholders; and 3) Identifying engagement strategies. Workshops, interviews and focus groups can aid analysis.

Strategic human resource managementHR challenge during merger,Potential chall...Md.Shakilur rahman
Katherine Montgomery, the HR manager of a hospital that may merge with a larger academic medical center, will face several challenges with the merger. These include differing corporate cultures between the private, nonprofit hospital and the public academic center, as well as managing union contracts and civil service rules. Some strategies to address these challenges are providing cross-training, workshops on culture, negotiating new contracts, and surveys to determine which HR practices to retain. The involvement of HR in planning will be important for a successful merger.
Global competition for talent, outsourcing labor, compliance legislation, remote workers, aging populations – these are just a few of the daunting challenges faced by HR organizations today.
Yet the most commonly monitored workforce metrics do very little to deliver true insight into these topics. Leaders need to graduate from metrics to analytics, surfacing the important connections and patterns in their data to make better workforce decisions. By graduating from metrics to analytics, HR professionals and leaders can better understand the contributing factors that are impacting their organization, and take the right actions to implement programs that will provide a true competitive advantage.
The LAMP framework provides a model for effective HR measurement and decision making. It consists of four elements:
1. Logic - Provides the theoretical framework and connections between measures, outcomes, and effects.
2. Analytics - Drawing the right conclusions from data through statistical analysis and identifying key issues.
3. Measures - Getting accurate metrics, but precision is not the only goal; measures should be directed where they provide the greatest return.
4. Process - Effective measurement systems must fit within an organizational change process to transfer knowledge and influence decisions. Measures alone are not enough without integrating the other three elements of the LAMP framework.
Adopting The New - or being adopted by itMalcolm Ryder
The document discusses how new products are adopted in the market. It states that a new product typically develops over time from a concept to a demonstration to an offering. For a new product to gain acceptance in the open market, it must "push" its way through by progressively earning priority among users over existing offerings. The new product advances through three stages - concept, demonstration, and offering - where it addresses viability, complexity, and convenience at each stage to increase acceptance. As the new product gains acceptance, the previously established product begins to decline in acceptance as the new product offers a superior value proposition that becomes the preferred option.
Despite IT automation and the richness of social knowledge, classifying support requests remains one of the most vexing information management problems for support organizations. Solving the problem requires a commitment to logic and to picking the right job for the tool to do, not picking the right tool to do the job.
As digitization increases everywhere, Communications overtakes Processes, and the support organization becomes an environment, not just the next tool system or department
1) The document summarizes a semantic review of presentations from the Pink15 ITSM conference in Las Vegas. It analyzes the topics covered and maps the "heat" or emphasis given to different issues.
2) A heat map was created to show the relative emphasis given to different topics based on weighing the strength of each presentation's focus on that topic. The map found some topics were covered more than others unexpectedly.
3) An online content management platform called eXie is used to continually collect and curate conference materials by topic into shareable reference collections using a defined framework. This supports knowledge planning and management across audiences and over time.
Service Configuration: A Semantic ModelMalcolm Ryder
The document discusses a semantic model for representing service configurations to manage reliability. It describes how a service can be modeled as a set of interrelated elements, including components, relationships, requirements, and circumstances. These elements describe the functionality, capabilities, and organization of the service. An example is provided of a baseball manager modeling the use of a relief pitcher in terms of the pitcher's abilities, the role/assignment, operational constraints, and how this aligns factors to achieve the desired outcome. The model represents services at different levels of abstraction and can be used to diagnose issues by examining how individual factors within each element are meeting requirements and expectations.
ITIL and ITSM will continue to evolve as information technology changes. While the processes and instructions may change, the conceptual knowledge and purpose of managing IT as a service to support business goals will remain. New technologies have increased capabilities and expectations, but the need for coordination between IT and business operations to effectively utilize IT remains. ITIL provides a framework to organize IT management accountability around the lifecycle of delivering services to meet business needs, rather than dictating unique processes. The focus remains on outcomes at each stage to determine service quality for business use.
The document discusses why organizational culture is difficult to change. It argues that an organization and its culture are both environments that interact and influence each other. Modifying one has the potential to affect the other significantly. An organization's structures facilitate some behaviors and inhibit others, while a culture reinforces some intentions and resists others. The culture generally affects the organization more than the organization affects the culture. For an organization to change its culture, it needs to change the incentives and security it provides to key actors in order to encourage new behaviors and a recomposition of the organization that better achieves its mission.
In the open market, the train of thought that goes
from Competition to “Advantage” to “Special”
runs at over 100mph to Design.
But if competitiveness is likely
to come from design that way,
why aren't more companies already good at it?
The key problem of any business is not what's new, but what's next. Given that, if New will be the required Next for business, you would think they would get to know each other a lot better.
Change Navigation - from Resistance To AdoptionMalcolm Ryder
The document outlines a process for navigating individual resistance to change and achieving voluntary adoption. It begins by acknowledging that resistance often stems from authority proposing the change and risks of being excluded. It then presents a compilation of factors involved in successful adoption cases, where the individual accepts a new role. These include addressing preexisting needs, emotions around new information, and replacing negative views with a personalized, relevant role and sense of status that motivates acceptance. The process guides replacing resistance with a new, supported mindset promoting the change.
The Intellectual History of IT Business ValueMalcolm Ryder
Technology evolution in business has been dazzling, but the real history of the evolution of business value is found in terms of the people who have been the decisive drivers of information usage.
An innovation must provide convenience in order to be adopted. Convenience exists when an experience aligns with expectations across personal, group, and market perspectives. For an innovation to succeed, it must generate experiences that correspond to the desired goals and preferred experiences of users in each perspective. Failing to enable this correspondence leads to inconvenience and failure of adoption. Managing expectations is crucial to avoid hype and disappointment that can undermine adoption.
Innovators, marketers, rainmakers... they all have a view on Opportunity, also known as the predisposition called Demand. But how do they know it when they see it?
The Who Cares Test - Archestra Value Mapper Malcolm Ryder
The document discusses the "Who Cares Test" which is a method for demystifying predispositions about value through mapping exercises. It involves having people map out how meaningful an event or moment is to them based on a hierarchy of choices. Comparing individual maps can reveal how people derive value and meaning in different yet understandable ways. The goal is to allow for differing perspectives to be articulated and potentially reconciled to reach outcomes that make sense to everyone involved.

The Who Cares Test - Archestra Value Mapper Malcolm Ryder
The document discusses the "Who Cares Test" which is a method for demystifying predispositions about value through mapping exercises. It involves having people map out how meaningful an event or moment is to them based on a hierarchy of choices. Comparing individual maps can reveal how people derive value and meaning in different yet understandable ways. The goal is to allow for differing perspectives to be articulated and potentially reconciled to reach outcomes that make sense to everyone involved.
This document discusses factors that promote user acceptance of products and emphasizes a user-centric approach to design. It defines a user as a customer who selects, receives, applies, and potentially retains an offered product. A user's scope of awareness is shaped by their predispositions and is defined through presence, proof, convenience and preference. An effective offer coincides with a user's scope of awareness by prioritizing critical prerequisites for acceptance identified through their behaviors, predispositions, and points of view. Affinity relates to a user's expressed needs while attraction reflects their appetites, and effective offers balance both to achieve overall acceptance.
When IT doesn't work in its business use, referring to how IT is structured in supply is no longer enough of an explanation. Regardless of any ITSM orthodoxy, the business needs its demand perspective to define how "configuration" of IT makes logical business sense. That perspective must shape the next normal CMDB.
Strategic management involves assessing an organization's current position, identifying where it wants to be in the future, generating options to get there, evaluating those options, and ensuring the desired position is reached. SWOT analysis is used to evaluate an organization's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. It involves analyzing internal strengths and weaknesses as well as external opportunities and threats in the competitive environment. Understanding these factors through SWOT analysis helps organizations develop strategies to maximize strengths and opportunities while minimizing weaknesses and threats.
The design and redesign of organizations today more regularly pursues agility, but very often it thinks that a given model will cause it, rather than discovering its best model from knowing what agility needs. This discussion surveys the underpinning archihtecture of agility, from which to cultivate or discover a site's appropriate model(s).
The document discusses competency mapping. It explains that competency mapping identifies an individual's strengths and weaknesses to help them understand where to direct career development efforts. Competency mapping is important for organizations facing rapid change from globalization, increasing competition, and new technologies. Competencies are the intellectual, managerial, social and emotional capabilities derived from job roles that are critical for effective performance. Competency mapping allows organizations to develop their human resources and ensure they have the skills needed to compete in today's fast-paced global marketplace.
The document outlines the 7 steps for developing a valid competency model: 1) Define objectives, 2) Obtain sponsor support, 3) Develop a communication plan, 4) Identify competencies, 5) Validate competencies, 6) Develop implementation strategies, 7) Monitor and review the model. It emphasizes clearly defining objectives, gaining sponsor commitment, and communicating with stakeholders to obtain buy-in. The competencies identified must be demonstrably related to essential job functions if used for employment decisions due to legal implications.
How To Make A Demand Management FrameworkMalcolm Ryder
Managing demand is critical to both efficacy and viability for any organization with ongoing heavy workloads or large consituencies. But "demand management" is routinely used to label the wrong thing. Seen properly as something that exists whether we respond to it or not, demand has its own life and impact. This general discussion surveys the distinction of demand and what to do with it.
The document discusses future directions and metrics for the human resources (HR) function. It outlines three levels of metrics - efficiency, effectiveness, and impact - and provides examples of metrics for various HR areas like staffing, compensation, and training. It emphasizes measuring how HR drives business performance and aligns with strategic goals. HR must shift from an administrative to strategic partner role by understanding the business strategy and developing people strategies that execute the business model.
This document discusses the business case for effective talent assessment. It notes that 25% of critical positions remain unfilled after 5 months as organizations compete fiercely for talent. Research shows that careful use of talent assessments can result in increased productivity, cost savings, and better retention of top employees. However, many organizations use ineffective approaches to selecting talent. This guide aims to help organizations sort through assessment options and identify those that will work best to achieve their business goals.
The document discusses future metrics for measuring the impact and effectiveness of HR. It begins by outlining three levels of metrics: efficiency, effectiveness, and impact. Efficiency measures resources and investments, effectiveness examines policies and practices, and impact evaluates the link between human capital and business success.
It then examines the changing role of HR from administrative expert to strategic partner. While more HR professionals see themselves as strategic partners, time spent on strategic activities has not increased. The document also reviews internal and external benchmarks for measuring HR. Finally, it emphasizes the need to demonstrate how HR drives business performance through impact metrics that link human capital to value creation.
The document discusses recruitment processes and techniques. It defines recruitment as finding and attracting capable applicants for jobs in an organization. The recruitment process includes identifying vacancies, preparing job descriptions, advertising positions, managing responses, shortlisting, interviewing, and making hiring decisions. Sources of recruitment can be internal like current employees or external like job boards, agencies, and colleges. The recruitment function is influenced by internal factors controlled by the organization and external factors outside its control like economic conditions. The objective of recruitment is to attract qualified candidates and hire the best ones to meet organizational needs.
The rapidly changing–and, at times, excessively complex–nature of development work demands diverse competences from aid agencies such as the Asian Development Bank. The learning challenges these present require the ability to work more reflectively in a turbulent practice environment.
The document discusses analyzing an organization's internal environment and capabilities. It describes reviewing organizational resources and activities to identify strengths and weaknesses. This helps understand current standing, select growth opportunities aligned with capabilities, and identify capability gaps. Key factors of the internal environment include organizational resources, behavior, strengths/weaknesses, synergies, competencies, and capabilities. Analyzing these areas through tools like the organizational capability profile and strategic advantage profile helps understand competitive advantage.
This document discusses developing competency-based people management. It proposes a framework with competency at the center linking business strategy to results. Key aspects include:
- Developing a competency model by identifying skills, knowledge and behaviors for roles
- Using competencies for career planning, training, performance management and other human resource functions
- Implementing successfully requires alignment with strategy, integration across HR processes, communication and long-term adoption into the organizational culture
Applying HR Analytics To Talent ManagementDereck Downing
This document summarizes an article about applying HR analytics to talent management. It discusses three key areas for applying metrics and analytics in talent management: 1) data about individuals, including measures of capability, performance, and developing personal capability profiles; 2) the effectiveness and efficiency of talent processes, including choosing metrics related to business KPIs; and 3) the supporting organizational culture and environment. It also discusses different definitions of "talent" that organizations use, ranging from only high potentials to all employees. The goal of metrics in talent management is to understand human capital, assess performance and potential, and track the impact of talent processes.
Organizational culture is influenced by both external and internal factors and reflects how employees experience the organization. It is maintained as the organization's way of doing business and helps with adaptation. Organizational power derives from sources like expertise, authority, and resources, and is wielded by those in positions of authority to shape culture and motivate employees. A strong organizational culture leads to employee engagement, decreased turnover, effective onboarding, and a healthy team environment. There are four main types of organizational culture: clan, adhocracy, market, and hierarchy. Types of organizational power include legitimate, coercive, expert, informational, reward, connection, and referent power. Power in an organization shapes dynamics and influences employee behavior and
Clayton Timms, the director of Symerge & People Software, presented on addressing the "talent conundrum". He discussed trends in talent management based on research from organizations like Boston Consulting Group and the importance of defining, attracting, engaging, and retaining talent. Timms proposed a holistic talent management model and process that involves assessing an organization's performance in attracting, engaging and retaining talent in order to develop a strategic talent plan to address any gaps. Implementing talent management software and interventions based on the strategic plan could help organizations solve the talent conundrum.
REPLY 1Organization culture is the trademark and the unmi.docxcarlt4
REPLY 1:
Organization culture is the trademark and the unmistakable character began inside each organization. Regardless of whether we are curious about companies like Starbucks, Google or WWF? Their names speak to the flavour of their work environments, the mentality, the unwritten convention of associations and the organization esteems. While some may consider organizational culture as the aftereffect of the organization's kin and procedures, something that can't be controlled or evaluated, in all actuality, organizational culture is suddenly substantial (Treven & Lynn, 2008). It very well may be purposely planned and utilized. It influences confidence and representative commitment. It oversees income rates and impacts organization execution and it influences benefit.
Organizational culture separates the remarkably effective companies from all the rest. It very well may be a ground-breaking, upper hand. The organizations' culture is constantly unmistakable, yet the enormous champs, reliably, the organizations focus on culture. This article will talk about a portion of the general social definitions and will continue following some particular social definitions for organizations. Taking a gander at the inquiry how the organization culture influences the advancement methodology of the organizations (Weiner, 2018). The article will likewise delineate the impact of the patterns and advancements on the organization structure. What's more, the connection between the organizations' structure and culture? The article will likewise give instances of current patterns and improvements and various techniques that are as of now used to assist organizations with making the necessary change in their culture or structure.
Culture definition changed as the years progressed. For instance, over four decades prior imagined a more extensive meaning of culture by proposing that culture was a »human-made piece of the earth. Attempting to decipher his definition, we may discuss »objective culture« (e.g., tables, PCs, trains) and »subjective culture« (e.g., standards, jobs, values). In an ongoing article in Harvard Business Review, the authors said that, Organizational culture is the aggregate impact of the regular convictions, practices, and estimations of the individuals inside an organization (Zak, 2018). Those standards inside any organization control how workers perform and serve clients, how they co-work with one another, regardless of whether they feel spurred to meet objectives, and on the off chance that they are truly into the organization's general strategic. How are representatives completing their work? Autonomously or cooperatively? Do representatives feel enlivened, submitted, and drew in, or irritated, exhausted, and undervalued? At the point when we talk about organizational culture, we are discussing the representative experience, the inward view. What do the representatives think? How is it, to work here? By what method can the initiative keep.
The document discusses key principles and activities for leading corporate transformation and managing change effectively. It identifies five key activities for change management: 1) motivating change, 2) creating a vision, 3) developing political support, 4) managing the transition, and 5) sustaining momentum. It also discusses principles of change, types of resistance to change, and elements needed to enable change like change architecture, communication, and developing leadership, team, cultural and individual capacities.
This document is a dissertation report submitted by [Your Name] towards a post graduate diploma in management from [College Name]. The report discusses implementing a balanced scorecard approach to align human resource strategies and functions with the overall business strategy of Verizon, an American telecommunications company. The report includes an introduction highlighting the importance of the balanced scorecard, research methodology, literature review, case study findings of Verizon's balanced scorecard implementation for HR, limitations of the study, conclusions, and recommendations. The aim of the report is to demonstrate how a balanced scorecard can help develop human resources as a strategic partner within an organization.
The purpose of organization is to influence effectiveness, and the logic behind that is practiced through the model of organization. This notebook compiles a common logic behind all models of organization.
Strategic structures for aligning Cooperation_the Enterprise.pdfMalcolm Ryder
A comparison of four different organizational models for co-operative pursuit of goals. Emphasis is on distinguishing "enterprise" as a specific configuration rather than as a catch-all synonym for "business".
Inclusion is the Equity of Diversity 04.19.23.pdfMalcolm Ryder
In a society that contains multiple cultures, the ideas of multi-culturalism and diversity appear to be the same goal, but social behaviors have their own systems outside of culture that predispose inclusion or exclusion at any level of community. This description navigates and categorizes the constellation of terms and dynamics presumed to characterize equitable inclusivity in a heterogeneous culture.
A Semantic Model of Enterprise Change.pdfMalcolm Ryder
This presentation is a distillation of language used to describe the scope and configuration of change managed at the enterprise level. Its goal was to find a way to drastically reduce the vocabulary necessary to model managed change, and to have the model be far more intuitively familiar.
Being simple-minded about complexity does not help to understand it nor to work with it successfully. This breakdown abstracts and compiles the many aspects of recognizing, creating, and managing with complexity as is consistent across many different domains of effort.
1. The document discusses decision making and the factors that influence it. It distinguishes between underlying conditions, which are the actual pre-existing causes and effects, and perceived conditions, which are the states recognized as factors that need to be addressed in making a solution or decision.
2. Decision makers are held responsible for the consequences of their decisions, which leads them to calibrate decisions to make the consequences acceptable. However, there is not always more than one justifiable decision to make.
3. The level of certainty in a decision depends on whether the underlying conditions prevent effective perception from guiding solutions. Different decision makers have different knowledge and opportunities to make the same decision.
We accept that everyone has Bias, and the study of that is exhaustive if not complete. But we continue to ask Why we have bias; the answer is that we need it.
Debating about design in the social media of business seems aimed at designing Design itself; but the results so far are not very persuasive. This is a significant knowledge management problem.
The document discusses a framework for managing organizational change. It argues that change will occur whether managed or not, so the purpose of management is to establish conditions where deliberate change is supported by continuous alignment of abilities to a targeted future value. It also discusses key influences on change success, alignment, and developing the capability to produce change when demanded by stakeholders. The overall framework presented focuses on managing change by cultivating alignment and responsiveness to demands rather than executing projects.
Alignment of Value and Performance - Reference modelMalcolm Ryder
Performance is meaningless unless it also amounts to needed value. The activity that generates this relationship is visible in a hierarchy of logical dependencies. The vocabulary for this visibilty is already very common; here it is also fully disambiguated.
As opposed to execution, delivery, and other common terms of progression, "production" is a perspective that directly relies on designing continuous value-driven activity, not on achieving a single prescribed outcome. Enabling active capability is the management concern, and value creation is the experience.
Management's relationship to complexity is clarified in this short piece based on revisiting basic definitions. No special domain expertise is required but the argument applies to all domains.
A meeting is a group behavior, and the value of the meeting will depend on why people will do what they do with it. This framework explains the cause and effect linkages occurring within a meeting that actually is needed instead of merely held.
Not all workgroups are teams, and teams may not be enough to cover the work needed to meet requirements. This framework identfies the scale of workgroup and scope of requirements that distinguishes one type of workgroup from another.
Waterfall was never so much of a development management method addressing a customer demand issue. Rather, it is a build management method addressing a product management issue. See how.
The future of work depends on the future of managed change. This overview identifies why work, as arranged by organizations, is modified both in practice and policy but must become focused primarily on why the worker works.
Managed Change efforts overall still fail at 66% to 75% of the time. This means that the prevailing perspective on how to "make" change is defeating most other factors. Here's why.
The document contrasts authority and leadership. Authority relies on control and power over others, while leadership relies on gaining agreement and trust from followers. Authority can create conditions for leadership but having authority alone does not make one a leader. Leadership can emerge without formal authority. The document also discusses how authority and leadership can be confused, with authority sometimes being mistaken for leadership when a person in charge is successful. It provides examples of different leadership strategies like revolutionary, restorative, sustaining, and inspirational in relation to the existing environment created by authority.
Diagramming of the key conditions and initiatives and objectives that combine to produce organizations that are holisiticaly designed for change. Consolidates the strategy, architecture and knowledge analyses from the systems thinking and design thinking perspectives.

From Concept to reality : Implementing Lean Managements DMAIC Methodology for...Rokibul Hasan
The Ready-Made Garments (RMG) industry in Bangladesh is a cornerstone of the economy, but increasing costs and stagnant productivity pose significant challenges to profitability. This study explores the implementation of Lean Management in the Sampling Section of RMG factories to enhance productivity. Drawing from a comprehensive literature review, theoretical framework, and action research methodology, the study identifies key areas for improvement and proposes solutions.
Through the DMAIC approach (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control), the research identifies low productivity as the primary problem in the Sampling Section, with a PPH (Productivity per head) of only 4.0. Using Lean Management techniques such as 5S, Standardized work, PDCA/Kaizen, KANBAN, and Quick Changeover, the study addresses issues such as pre and post Quick Changeover (QCO) time, improper line balancing, and sudden plan changes.
The research employs regression analysis to test hypotheses, revealing a significant correlation between reducing QCO time and increasing productivity. With a regression equation of Y = -0.000501X + 6.72 and an R-squared value of 0.98, the study demonstrates a strong relationship between the independent variables (QCO downtime and improper line balancing downtime) and the dependent variable (productivity per head).
The findings suggest that by implementing Lean Management practices and addressing key productivity inhibitors, RMG factories can achieve substantial improvements in efficiency and profitability. The study provides valuable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers seeking to enhance productivity in the RMG industry and similar manufacturing sectors.

m249-saw PMI To familiarize the soldier with the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon ...LinghuaKong2
M249 Saw marksman PMIThe Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW), or 5.56mm M249 is an individually portable, gas operated, magazine or disintegrating metallic link-belt fed, light machine gun with fixed headspace and quick change barrel feature. The M249 engages point targets out to 800 meters, firing the improved NATO standard 5.56mm cartridge.The SAW forms the basis of firepower for the fire team. The gunner has the option of using 30-round M16 magazines or linked ammunition from pre-loaded 200-round plastic magazines. The gunner's basic load is 600 rounds of linked ammunition.The SAW was developed through an initially Army-led research and development effort and eventually a Joint NDO program in the late 1970s/early 1980s to restore sustained and accurate automatic weapons fire to the fire team and squad. When actually fielded in the mid-1980s, the SAW was issued as a one-for-one replacement for the designated "automatic rifle" (M16A1) in the Fire Team. In this regard, the SAW filled the void created by the retirement of the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) during the 1950s because interim automatic weapons (e.g. M-14E2/M16A1) had failed as viable "base of fire" weapons.
Early in the SAW's fielding, the Army identified the need for a Product Improvement Program (PIP) to enhance the weapon. This effort resulted in a "PIP kit" which modifies the barrel, handguard, stock, pistol grip, buffer, and sights.
The M249 machine gun is an ideal complementary weapon system for the infantry squad platoon. It is light enough to be carried and operated by one man, and can be fired from the hip in an assault, even when loaded with a 200-round ammunition box. The barrel change facility ensures that it can continue to fire for long periods. The US Army has conducted strenuous trials on the M249 MG, showing that this weapon has a reliability factor that is well above that of most other small arms weapon systems. Today, the US Army and Marine Corps utilize the license-produced M249 SAW.

Designing and Sustaining Large-Scale Value-Centered Agile Ecosystems (powered...Alexey Krivitsky
Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.

While agile has entered the post-mainstream age, possibly losing its mojo along the way, the rise of remote working is dealing a more severe blow than its industrialization.
In this talk we'll have a look to the cumulative effect of the constraints of a remote working environment and of the common countermeasures.
