Enterprise Risk Management and Moat Strength
Introduction
Analysing risk components is essential in understanding the risk element, which will help the strategic team understand different factors that bring about organizational loss and how they can implement measures to ensure corporate objectives are attained. The information below relates to the enterprise management and MOAT strengths of two corporations, NVIDIA and Intel.
Risk components in each country
NVIDIA is an IT industry organization focusing on computing technology and software elements that are used in the present moment. Intel is an IT industry competitor specializing in digital technology platforms. Intel has existed longer than NVIDIA, and these two corporations have had a hand in the present industry. These corporations are in the maturity stage, operating for several years. These corporations have made progress by adapting to new technologies that have made them profitable and exist in the current moment. Corporations in the IT industry survive by adapting to new technologies.
These corporations face some risks in the present moment. New systems and applications are challenging to make operations efficient and effective this makes some systems obsolete, and these corporations must ensure they have adapted to the new system. Moreover, the corporations face financial risks as there is too much investment in the foreseeable future. The future is unknown, and some of the projects undertaken have not borne fruit. However, these corporations must increase research to keep them abreast of the present moment and increase incomes in the future. NVIDIA holds a considerable position in the gaming industry as it is respected for its graphics. Intel is also appreciated for its graphics in the central processing unit. These corporations are uniquely niched as NVIDIA focuses on gaming, whereas Intel focuses on the application of programs and applications used for several operations. NVIDIA has a more significant economic advantage as it has focused solely on gaming graphics. Some of the graphics in NVIDIA are also applied in computers and other technologies, which makes the corporation advantageous and increases its revenue streams). Moreover, NVIDIA has increased its operations due to qualitative graphics which have made it increase the shareholders' value. Corporations are willing to invest more in the company. NVIDIA is applied for high-end gaming, a present-day cash cow in the IT industry...
As for Intel, their processors are not designed for gaming. Intel has focused more on appearance and ensured their machines consume less power and can be used in the corporate section for some operations. Intel is used in some companies as the laptops purchased, ...

Hey Michelle.
I've also worked in industries where it was required to have an approved change management plan. It was a headache to do it for every little change sometimes, but I can see that it was necessary to have individuals plan their work and make it known to others what they were going to do. Having others included in the change process is incredibly important as there could be unconsidered items that will affect everyone. Especially in manufacturing, there are processes that must be considered because there is power requirements, safety issues, heavy equipment, etc. There could be a lot of dangerous things that can happen in that industry if there isn't an appropriate management of change.

The elements to examine to determine if a fast or slow method works better for change depends if there is a continuous issue that creates significant harm. Urgency, the degree of support, competitive environment, knowledge and skills and financial and other resources are considered for a faster approach. Amount and complexity of change are limited and easy, a faster pace is generally utilized; however, if the change is substantial, there is a possibility that additional time is needed.
The top-down style is utilized when the change, plans, and beginning proceeds without participation from those below them. The participatory style change leaders search for information from those below them and utilize several of their ideas. The participatory style is utilized in a high-involvement organization. Parti.

Networks, swarms and policy. The future of policy making in a complex systems...Alberto Cottica
Modern policy making arose in the 20th century as a series of techniques to optimise a simple system, like a machine. There are now signs that 21st century policy makers are starting to view societies and economies as a complex system instead: one of them is the adoption of network modelling by senior decision makers.
The presentation looks at some of the emerging consequences of this new world view for public policies, including a new set of policy tools for smart swarms of citizens. I conclude by trying to paint a big picture of the shift in modern policy making and the role of the state.

How do you motivate users to contributions to a blog? Gamification applies the best concepts from games to the design of user experience: challenge, achievement and reward. Points, badges, levels, achievements, and leader boards can all dramatically alter users behaviors. Come hear how we are using the Achievements plugin along with the promise (and pitfalls!) of gamification. Note: attendance of the entire session is required to earn a Gamification Experience badge.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
