This document discusses the complexity of evaluating Kaupapa Māori (Māori methodology) programs. It describes evaluation as both simple and complex, influenced by politics and requiring a culturally appropriate approach. The document also shares perspectives from program providers, evaluators and communities on how success is defined for Māori programs and on incorporating Māori cultural factors into evaluations. It stresses the importance of indigenous knowledge and Kaupapa Māori research methodology that is derived from Māori ontology.
Culture theory strengthens the expectation that markets work, not because they are comprised of autonomous individuals who are free of social sanctions but because they are powered by social beings and their distinctive ideas, beliefs, values, and knowledge. It can contribute to understanding and promoting development where group relationships predominate and individualism is tempered.

In the age of the internet, many think libraries are being destroyed. One need not yield to pessimism: identifiable trends point to a promising future. In light of these, one should be able to circumscribe plausible scenarios. Approaches to strategic planning that count on ownership should make a big difference and point to desirable skills for librarians. If they also invest in resilience and give unequivocal attention to branding, libraries can enjoy a renaissance.

Today I am uploading the second presentation I have shown to my students. As I could observe, they were very much interested in the topic of economic diplomacy, especially due to being business- and international employment-oriented. What I can say from this experience is the fact that international students, young, hard-working people coming in a huge majority from developing countries, now very well what they want to get from their higher education - practical knowledge is key. There is, however, also another field they understand very much about and these are global challenges they benefit or suffer from. Here we have had an opportunity to discuss changes in global economy and their impact on regional economic environments. Hope another piece of my teaching material will gain your interest. Thank you in advance for any feedback you'd be willing to share.

THE CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
I n Chapter 2, The Cultural Context of IHRM, we cover the concept of culture i n considerable detail, so our comments i n this introductory chapter are necessarily brief. There are many defini-tions of culture, but the term is usually used to describe a shaping process over time. This proc-ess generates relative stability, reflecting a shared knowledge structure that attenuates (i.e. reduces) variability i n values, behavioral norms and patterns of b e h a v i o r . A n i m p o r t a n t char-acteristic of culture is that it is so subtle a process that one is not always conscious of its relation-ship to values, attitudes and behaviors. One usually has to be confronted w i t h a different culture in order to f u l l y appreciate this effect. Anyone traveling abroad, either as a tourist or on business, experiences situations that demonstrate cultural differences in language, f o o d , dress, hygiene and attitude to time . While the traveller can perceive these differences as novel, even enjoyable, for people required to live and w o r k i n a new country, such differences can prove dif-ficult . They may experience culture shock - a phenomenon experienced by people w h o move across cultures. The new environment requires many adjustments in a relatively short period of time, challenging people's frames of reference to such an extent that their sense of self, especially i n terms of nationality, comes into question. People, in effect, experience a shock reaction to new cultural experiences that cause psychological disorientation because they misunderstand or do not recognize i m p o r t a n t cues. Culture shock can lead to negative feelings about the host country and its people and a longing to return home .
Because international business involves the interaction and movement of people across national boundaries, an appreciation of cultural differences and when these differences are im-p o r t a n t is essential. Research into these aspects has assisted in furthering our understanding of the cultural environment as an i m p o r t a n t variable that moderates differences between ...

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
