This document discusses group facilitation and different types of groups. It identifies four basic types of groups: support groups, information presentation groups, decision-making groups, and skills-building groups/workshops. Different groups require different facilitation skills depending on factors like the level of participation. The level of participation can range from lectures with low participation to participant-led support groups with high participation. Good facilitators understand these different types of groups and how to adapt their facilitation skills accordingly.

My Personal Odyssey with Big Data - Brad PopovichCityAge
Brad Popovich underwent early exploration of his personal genome in the 1970s-2000s by analyzing genes related to various conditions. In 2013-2014, he obtained whole genome sequencing through Illumina's Understanding Your Genome program to learn more about his genetic blueprint and risks. While whole genome sequencing provides potential for informed decisions, interpretation challenges remain due to limited comparison data and phenotypic information. Popovich hopes to learn how it feels to be a consumer of genomic data and whether the healthcare system can accommodate medically actionable follow-up of any concerning variants found.

Union of Humans: The Future of the Millennial Generation in the Age of Automa...Ogilvy
It’s not always fun or easy to understand an automating, fissuring, hyper-globalizing economy. It’s not always comfortable to consider that decades-old safe and sage advice (“Go to college!”) might become totally obsolete—if we don’t move quickly to curtail the privatization of our primary schools, and/or colleges fail to modernize their offerings.
However with great crisis comes great opportunity, and Millennials are well-equipped to handle the mammoth issues before them. They are, after all, the most educated, most connected generation in American history.
So why the emphasis on…unions? Well, we really need them, and Millennials happen to love them. But the automation era will require its own union, of sorts—what we’re calling a “union of humans.”
7 Lessons from Established Online Video Viewers Ogilvy
This document discusses key findings from a survey of nearly 2,400 established online video viewers about their consumption habits. Some of the main findings include:
- Most respondents expect online streaming to be their sole source of video within a few years and they see traditional TV as becoming obsolete.
- Session viewing, where viewers engage with online videos for extended periods of 30+ minutes multiple times a week, dominates online behavior rather than single video views.
- Session viewing is common across all age groups, not just young viewers. Most viewing sessions occur in the evening prime time hours that compete with television.
- Irrelevant or poorly placed advertising is a major reason viewers abandon viewing sessions, undermining the monetization abilities of
Point of View on Cambridge Analytica Scandal Ogilvy

This document discusses the growing trend of vertical video content consumption on mobile devices. It provides perspectives from executives at Ogilvy on the pros and cons of vertical video. While 98% of mobile usage is in portrait mode, vertical video is still a nascent format with limited distribution on desktop. Brands are experimenting with vertical video on platforms like Snapchat, seeing higher engagement rates. Overall, the experts recommend testing both vertical and horizontal video formats given different audience preferences and video purposes.
OgilvyRED - Dollars and Sense of ConnectivityOgilvy
Mobile connectivity has the potential to provide significant economic and social benefits globally, but its impact depends on factors like infrastructure development and affordability. The mobile connectivity ecosystem involves infrastructure providers (carriers), services/content providers, and consumers. While carriers play a pivotal role by operating networks, the benefits are not evenly distributed. In developed nations, higher bandwidth enables services like video streaming but in developing areas, basic connectivity can improve access to information, resources and opportunities that positively impact areas like health, education and economic growth. Ensuring widespread affordable access remains an ongoing challenge.
This document discusses the early history and development of television as a mass medium. It notes that television content initially borrowed from radio, with radio networks and executives helping to establish the first television networks and shape early programming. Government regulation restricted access to television broadcasts, ensuring networks became the dominant gatekeepers. While television grew slowly at first, by the 1950s it had become a ubiquitous part of American homes and culture, homogenizing society and fueling the need for more programming and advertising. This established the foundation and power structure of the television industry that still exists today.
This document discusses the concept of "behavior brands" and how brands need to shift from simply communicating messages to taking meaningful actions that demonstrate their values. It provides examples of brands like I LOHAS water and Nestle that have become more engaging by focusing on behaviors that help consumers. The document also discusses how a new generation, referred to as "Gen B", values brands that act according to their stated purposes and priorities, not just talk about them. It advocates that brands develop "blueprints" focused on actions and behaviors to engage this new generation of consumers.
Millennials are not a monolithic group, but rather consist of diverse subgroups divided by factors like age and socioeconomic status. While some experts generalize about Millennials' interests, the realities of their experiences vary greatly from prosperous to impoverished. Though often characterized as uninterested in politics, Millennials have effectively used social media and online activism to enact political change on issues like internet regulation and LGBTQ rights.

How to Fuel Your Brand by Wendy Clark @Wnd #OgilvyCannes #CannesLions Ogilvy
Wendy Clark, President of Coca-Cola North America's Sparkling Brands and Strategic Marketing, gave a masterclass on leadership at Cannes Lions. She discussed three of her most cherished principles: bravery, being underestimated, and belief. Bravery involves having a strong point of view and acting on it despite risks. Being underestimated lowers expectations and fuels competitiveness. Belief is a powerful tool when leaders inspire both individual and collective belief through humble confidence.
Day 4 Recap from #CannesLions #OgilvyCannes Ogilvy
Kim Kardashian was scheduled to speak at Cannes Lions but her appearance was underwhelming. The author notes that many young people attended hoping to see her but she did not do or say much of substance. Earlier speakers addressed how marketing often fails to reach women with messages of compassion and independence. The author also summarizes lessons learned from game show theory about creating engaging narratives and storytelling that can be applied to advertising. Finally, the author shares leadership advice from advertising legend Keith Reinhard about having a dream, passion, persistence, and curiosity to succeed both personally and in leading others.
Day 3 of the 2015 Cannes Lions festival saw surprising performances from celebrities in their presentations. Deals were announced between major companies including WPP, Snapchat, and Daily Mail forming a new content marketing agency, and Unilever and Vice Media forming a partnership. Google representatives discussed the challenges of moderating content on YouTube and ensuring it remains open while removing violent propaganda. Diana Nyad gave an inspiring talk about her record-breaking swim from Cuba to Florida, though some felt her narrative of success promoted narcissism.
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.

Many companies have perceived CRM that accompanied by numerous
uncoordinated initiatives as a technological solution for problems in
individual areas. However, CRM should be considered as a strategy when
a company decides to implement it due to its humanitarian, technological
and process-related effects (Mendoza et al., 2007, p. 913). CRM is
evolving today as it should be seen as a strategy for maintaining a longterm relationship with customers.
A CRM business strategy includes the internet with the marketing,
sales, operations, customer services, human resources, R&D, finance, and
information technology departments to achieve the company’s purpose and
maximize the profitability of customer interactions (Chen and Popovich,
2003, p. 673).
After Corona Virus Disease-2019/Covid-19 (Coronavirus) first
appeared in Wuhan, China towards the end of 2019, its effects began to
be felt clearly all over the world. If the Coronavirus crisis is not managed
properly in business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer
(B2C) sectors, it can have serious negative consequences. In this crisis,
companies can typically face significant losses in their sales performance,
existing customers and customer satisfaction, interruptions in operations
and accordingly bankruptcy
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.

A simple idea, but very powerful.
David Ogilvy always said to hire
people bigger than us, and I think if
we do so it is the job of leaders to help
get the obstacles out of their way.
My friend Jeff Stibel who is CEO of Dun & Bradstreet
Credibility Corp., and a brain scientist said that the
brain is basically just a muscle, and one brain isn’t that
much different than another. That’s an interesting
thought for a leader, if everyone’s brain is somewhat
similar then it is the experiences and environment
that people have that make them different and it’s
through that they become critical to accomplish a task.
Therefore as leaders it is our responsibility to
put the best people together, take down any and
all obstacles, and help them tell stories about
themselves, changing the world along the way.
Think about the best thing you have done
professionally, the work that made our clients
famous, the greatest accomplishment in your career,
most likely it happened because of a team, through
a group of people led by a selfless leader who took
down the obstacles for you to do your best.
Leaders
help
their teammates
tell stories about
themselves
4. 5 Things You Need to Think About from 2014
Every idea that has been created in
the past 100 years that disrupted,
challenged norms, did the impossible,
had to start with a spirit of audacity.
Banksy said it best in an op-ed that was
never published. The quote about New York
is true “Nobody comes to New York to bathe
in your well-mannered common sense.
We’re here for the spirit and audacity.”
The spirit of audacity is what built Silicon
Alley, it’s what made Elon Musk believe that
he could transform money, then automotive,
energy and space, it’s what Jack Ma did to
change the way people buy and sell goods
across China, and it’s what Steve Jobs did to
transfigure the way the world connects.
3We must embrace
a spirit of
audacity

Let’s be honest, as
technology, mobile
devices, and social
networks continue to
proliferate, the ability to
control becomes almost
impossible. More people
are connected by more
ways than ever before.
Control is a fools errand. 4 The 21st century is
a terrible
time to be
a control
freak
6. 5 Things You Need to Think About from 2014
- Goldman Sachs (in their report
Womenomics) estimates that by
closing the gender employment
gap, the potential boost to Japan’s
GDP could go up by 13%
- If we close the gender gap in the
US we could increase GDP by 9%
- The number of female politicians
in the US is under 20% - even lower
than places like Iraq with 25% - it’s
better in the US private sector.
- But this stat in politics is concerning
not just for equal rights but there
is significant data and studies that
point to women as community
builders and consensus builders -
key traits for leading governments.
We 5are assholes
if we don’t
fix the
gender gap in
leadership
and the
workplace
