This document summarizes the findings of the 2011-2012 National Employed Caregiver Study conducted by Dr. Linda Duxbury at Carleton University. The study surveyed over 25,000 employees from 71 companies to examine work-life balance issues. Key findings for Carleton University employees included: they work long hours both at and outside of work; devote significant time to dependent care; have high levels of role overload and work-life conflict; and would like more control over their work hours. Higher income, a supportive partner and manager, and perceived flexibility can help reduce overload. The organizational culture at Carleton supports work-life balance.

Adult Student Gains Degree, Demographic, and Motivational InsightsHobsons
Hobsons and UPCEA partnered on a groundbreaking study one year ago to measure motivation and impact of degree completion. This year, analysis of the multi-year study revealed differences in motivation, career goals, and outcomes by major and demographic characteristics. Learn more about: www.hobsons.com
The high turnover rate of staff is causing hospital leadership to panic. Given that the cost of replacing a nurse can be upwards of 1.3 times their salaries, hospitals need to understand the reasons why this is occurring. The implications are far-reaching for hospitals and they need to understand how to evolve traditional approaches to stay ahead of the evolving needs of their staff. By taking a proactive approach to talent management, health systems can better hire, retain, and engage today’s workforce.
This presentation by Rebecca Parker, MD, FACEP and Chair of the ACEP Board and Steve Dobberowsky, Principal Consultant of Thought Leadership & Advisory Services at Cornerstone OnDemand, shares strategies to help identify and reduce the risk of staff departures to healthcare organizations.
Steve provides easy-to-understand insights on:
* The biggest challenges health systems have in staff retention (and engagement!)
* Why your team may already be applying to other hospitals
* Talent management strategies that create a more productive, passionate workforce
More than money: Recruiting and Retaining Library IT StaffWilliam Helman
From LITA Forum 2015: In this session, we will present preliminary results of a survey of library IT staff on the key factors that influence recruitment and retention. We will examine both traditional, tangible forms of compensation like salary and benefits as well as other benefits such as flexible work schedules, telecommuting, work location, professional development, and organizational culture. We hope to discover which factors have the strongest effects on recruitment and retention and whether those effects are consistent across settings and demographic groups.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

1. The 2011-’12 National
Employed Caregiver Study:
The Case of Carleton
University:
Dr. Linda Duxbury
Professor, Sprott School of Business
Carleton University, Ottawa
Linda_Duxbury@Carleton.ca
2. The Data: The 2011-’12
Study of Employed Caregivers
Study conducted June 2011 to July 2012
Had just over 25,000 employees from 71
companies fill out the survey
Gave us a chance to re-explore the same issues
examined in 1991 and 2001
As well as some new ones
This is important given the fact that many things
likely to impact an employee’s ability to balance
work and family have changed since we
undertook our last study
3. The 2011-’12 Study of
Employed Caregivers
Many of these changes are demographic
Increased longevity/reduced fertility means Canada’s
population is aging as is its workforce
Families are smaller and more diverse in structure
Means no “one size fits all” solution to this issue
Many of these changes are economic
Bifurcation of the labour market: “jobs without people,
people without jobs”
Economic downturn has impacted firms and
employees and reduced incentives for change
4. The 2011-’12 Study of
Employed Caregivers
Technological advances have further blurred the
boundary between work and family
Now possible to be in touch with work 24/7
Many companies expect constant availability from employees
Gen X and Gen Y employees have very different set of
work values than their parents (Baby Boomers)
Work life issues key to recruitment and retention of both of these
groups
5. Focus of the 2012 study?
Employed caregivers
Role overload
Too much to do in the amount of time one has
to do it
Carleton University participated in this
study
6. The Carleton Sample (n = 348)
68% of the respondents indicated that their
position involves regular contact with students
34% of respondents professors
40% in FASS
22% in Public Affairs
16% in Science
14% in Engineering
9% in Sprott
66% of respondents work in a wide variety of
positions in 15 units across campus
7. Strategy used to present
findings
When writing this talk, I was guided by a desire
to maintain confidentiality and be interesting!
Will begin by presenting findings obtained using
the total Carleton sample
When relevant I will:
Compare findings obtained using Carleton sample to
those obtained with the total data set
Talk about differences in the findings associated
with membership in the following groups:
Faculty versus non-faculty sample
8. Who answered the survey?
Sample dominated by knowledge workers
Respondents were:
Predominantly female
80% of non-faculty group female
58% of faculty group female
Well-educated
34% with one university degree,
46% with post graduate degree(s)
Socio-economically advantaged
66% had personal incomes of $60,000 or
more per year
9. Who at Carleton answered the
survey?
Most respondents (71%) married/live with
a partner, 16% are single
A lot of diversity with respect to job type:
38% professional
26% administrative
16% managers/executives
10% other
8% technical
10. Age: Carleton workforce older
What does this mean?
Half of the sample are
Boomers
Next largest group are
Gen X (38%)
Issues:
These two cohorts tend
to have different values
– increases potential for
conflict
Succession planning
likely to be an issue
12. Most of the families in our
sample are financially secure
But 28% live in families where financial resources are tight
13. Years working at Carleton bi-
modally distributed
Where is the succession planning pool?
Years with working for Carleton:
1 to 5 37%
6 to 10 25%
11+ 38%
Years in current job
1 or less 20%
2 to 3 20%
4 + 60%
Issues: Succession planning and career
development
14. A majority of the Carleton
employees in our sample have
substantive non-work demands
71% of respondents are married
65% of respondents have children
49% have eldercare
18% have care for 3+ elderly dependents
Family Type:
Dual Career: 31%
Single 21%
Dual-income - Male primary earner: 17%
Dual Earner: 15%
Dual-income – Female primary earner 12%
17. Non-work demands associated
with job type
Faculty members less likely to have
children
44% of faculty have no children versus 30%
of non-faculty
Faculty with children more likely:
To have younger children
29% of faculty have children under 5 versus 17%
of non-faculty
To say responsibility for childcare shared in
their families
22. Time Versus Earnings: Total Sample
Many Canadians (women in particular) would like to reduce
the amount of time they spend in paid employment
23. But its not just about work
Families also devote a lot of time to
dependent care: Total Sample
24. Demands: Carleton
Carleton Employees Devote A Lot of
Time to Their Job
The typical Carleton employee spends 40.47 in
work per week at Carleton
74% also take work home to complete
evenings/weekends
Supplemental work at home – SWAH
Those who perform SWAH spend an additional 8.5
hours per week in working at home
evenings/weekends
When SWAH is taken into account the “typical”
Carleton employee in this sample spends just
under 50 hours in work per week
26. Work demands at Carleton vary
with job type
But many people are devoting a lot of time to their job
27. Time Versus Earnings:
Many at Carleton would like to reduce the amount of time
they spend in paid employment
28. But its not just about work: Carleton
families also devote a lot of time to
dependent care
Hours per week in following dependent care activities
29. Carleton Employees are busy
people:
Do more than work and look after children

your friends and family might not.” Unknown
“You can have it all – you just cannot have it
all at once.” Oprah Winfrey
"For fast-acting relief, try slowing down.“ Lily

"So often we are depressed by what remains
to be done and forget to be thankful for all
that has been done." Marian Wright
Edelman
"Nobody can go back and start a new
beginning, but anyone can start today and
make a new ending." Maria Robinson
79. Making change a priority
For organizations to “thrive” (not just survive)
in the new millennium, they need to make
human resources and supporting employees
a high priority
As Bill Gates argued in the recent anti-trust
case against Microsoft:
“Little of today’s technology is proprietary.
Technology is easily obtained and replicated
and only levels the playing field. An
organization’s valued human assets cannot be
copied.”
80. Final Words
“More than anytime in history
mankind faces a crossroads.
One path leads to despair
and utter hopelessness, the
other to extinction. Let us
pray that we have the
wisdom to choose correctly.”
