These slides contain important information about the Wolfson Economics Prize 2014, including deadlines and contact information, as well as an agenda for the event itself.
This document discusses community-based tourism (CBT) and its viability in Bangladesh. It summarizes that while CBT aims to economically benefit local communities and protect tourism assets, many CBT projects have failed due to lack of market access, funding, and community involvement. The document proposes three models of CBT based on the relationship between tourists, communities, and attractions. Model 3, which combines community skills/offers and natural/cultural attractions, is presented as having the most potential for success by making the community the host. An example of a potentially successful CBT project in Bangladesh using this model is discussed.
Swift and Certain Punishment with Professor Keith Humphreys | 18.03.2014Policy_Exchange
This document summarizes three programs - Physician Health Plans, HOPE Probation, and 24/7 Sobriety - that exemplify a new paradigm of using swift, certain, and proportionate punishment in response to substance use issues rather than unpredictable, harsh, and slow punishment. The programs had simple and transparent rules with immediate consequences for violations but also offered treatment. Evaluation found high rates of compliance, fewer violations, and reduced recidivism compared to traditional approaches. The principles of these programs have spread and show promise in addressing public safety issues from both legal and illegal substance use.

Why Community Based Tourism is Important for Bangladesh?Rashidul Hasan
This document discusses community-based tourism (CBT) and its potential in Bangladesh. It provides an example of CBT in Bandarban, Bangladesh. The key points are:
1) CBT involves local communities and is based on their culture, lands, and assets. It is for community development and conservation.
2) Bandarban shows potential for CBT with its trekking routes, ethnic villages, and natural attractions but communities currently lack decent accommodations, food, and facilities for tourists.
3) A model for sustainable CBT development includes assessing potential, securing assistance, developing integrated approaches and products, training local residents, and providing ongoing support.
This document discusses the work of Create Streets, a social enterprise that advocates for building more urban homes in conventional terraced streets rather than large multi-story buildings. Some key points made:
- Create Streets conducts research and lobbies for policy changes to encourage street-based development. Their proposals have influenced government budgets and studies.
- Streets are more popular housing options according to numerous surveys. High-rise living is associated with greater isolation, noise, and feelings of being overcrowded.
- Streets can achieve high densities and provide better long-term financial returns than large buildings.
- The current planning and development system favors large projects and finds it difficult to build enough conventional streets
This document summarizes various visions for sustainable cities and communities from the 1860s to the future. It briefly describes Ebenezer Howard's Garden City masterplan from the 1860s, cohousing communities in Copenhagen in the 1960s, the Transition Town movement across the EU in 2000, Foster + Partners' "Masdar" development plan from 2007, and Bryan Avery's speculative "Fragments of a Wilderness City" vision for 2060.
The document outlines the steps involved in conducting marketing research and presenting the findings, including defining the problem, research design, data collection and analysis, interpreting results, and structuring a written report with sections for an executive summary, problem definition, methodology, findings, conclusions, and recommendations. It emphasizes that conclusions and recommendations should be guided by the original research objectives and background. The document also provides initial guidance on creating a report style sheet to ensure consistency in formatting, spelling, abbreviations, and proofreading.
Community Based Tourism in Bandarban, BangladeshRashidul Hasan
This presentation summarizes tourism in Bandarban, Bangladesh. It notes that around 700,000 tourists visit Bandarban yearly, generating $100 million in tourism receipts. It then outlines the types of tourism in Bandarban including wanderlust tourism focused on trekking and track tourism, and sun lust tourism focused on sightseeing and relaxation. Finally, it discusses opportunities to improve tourism facilities and increase community involvement and income through interventions by organizations like ICIMOD, government agencies, and the private sector.
Some Proposed Models for Successful Community Based TourismRashidul Hasan
Community-based tourism (CBT) refers to tourism activities or enterprises that are owned and managed by the local community. CBT aims to involve local communities in tourism development by giving them ownership and control over projects and retaining a major portion of earnings. It can promote sustainable development by bringing economic benefits to communities while conserving the environment and local culture. The document discusses why CBT is important, providing examples of how communities in countries like Bangladesh can benefit from CBT by developing homestays, restaurants, handicrafts, and other tourism services and products. It outlines steps for communities to assess their tourism potential and successfully implement CBT projects.
OKR ยาแก้ KPI?
ทุกวันนี้บุคลากรทุกคนคงจะขยาดเมื่อได้ยินคำว่า KPI (Key Performance Indicator) หรือตัวชี้วัดความสำเร็จ เพราะคำ ๆ นี้มักตามหลอกหลอนทุกไตรมาส เพราะ KPI คือตัวชี้วัดผลการทำงานของเรานั่นเอง
แต่ในปัจจุบันเหมือนจะมีข่าวดีให้เราไม่ต้องพะวงและผวากันอีกต่อไป กับการโดนวัดผลการดำเนินงาน แต่นั่นมันก็เป็นเพียงข่าวลือที่ทำให้เราดีใจได้ชั่วขณะ เพราะน้องใหม่ไฟแรงของการวัดผล ยังคงเป็นการวัดผลการทำงาน เพียงแต่นำวัตถุประสงค์มาใช้ให้ชาวเราทราบว่า ต้องทำอย่างไรให้บรรลุวัตถุประสงค์ หรือองค์กรมีวัตถุประสงค์การดำเนินงานอย่างไรในแต่ละปี ซึ่งน้องใหม่ไฟแรงของการวัดผลที่กล่าวมาข้างต้นนั้น เราเรียกว่า OKR (Objective and Key Results)
OKR ดีอย่างไร
1. ความสอดคล้อง ทุกคนทำงานเพื่อจุดมุ่งหมายเดียวกัน
2. สร้างวินัย และ การมุ่งเน้นงาน (ทำทีละงาน และทบทวนอย่างสม่ำเสมอ)
3. ช่วยสร้างกระบวนการทำงานที่ชัดเจนและวัดผลได้
4. ทุกคนรู้งานที่สำคัญที่สุด ขององค์กร ทีม และ ทุกคนในองค์กร
5. สร้างความโปร่งใสของงานภายในบริษัท
จุดเด่นของ OKR
ยืดหยุ่นและทันความเปลี่ยนแปลง
เปิดโอกาสให้เกิดการเรียนรู้
ทลายขีดจำกัดความสามารถและความเป็นไปได้
ให้ความสำคัญกับการพัฒนา ‘คน’
เปิดทางสำหรับความคิดสร้างสรรค์
Objectives and Key Results (OKR) is a popular management strategy for goal setting within organizations. The purpose of OKRs are to connect company, team, and personal goals to measurable results while having all team members and leaders work together in one, unified direction.
Originally implemented in the 1970s by Intel President Andy Grove, OKRs spread across many companies, especially when they were introduced to Google by John Doerr. Now, OKRs are used by tens of thousands of companies from SMEs to the Fortune 500. Google, LinkedIn, Intel, Zynga, Sears, Oracle and Twitter are just some well-known OKR users who love and use them.
