Sales & Marketing don't really get on... or do they?Catalyst
Alignment between marketing & sales is potentially the largest opportunity for improving business performance today. So, how can you make them work together?
Katia Sol Madjidi PhD Dissertation - The Ecology of Transformationkatia7sol
This document is a doctoral thesis that examines the Ecology of Leadership program at the Regenerative Design Institute in Bolinas, California. The author conducted a relational study of the program using interviews, surveys, sharing circles, and participatory research. The thesis argues that humanity is undergoing a Great Turning from an industrial growth society to a life-sustaining society. It explores how the Ecology of Leadership program supports personal and collective transformation through reconnecting participants to themselves, each other, nature, and purpose. The author concludes by outlining an Ecology of Transformation model for holistic inner and outer change through reconnection practices.

The document discusses the growing importance of Pinterest for marketing cosmetic products. It notes that competitors CoverGirl and L'Oreal have established successful presences on Pinterest, while Maybelline currently has no profile. It identifies opportunities for Maybelline to leverage Pinterest, such as creating appealing profiles, organizing boards strategically, engaging users, and targeting the growing male demographic. The memo recommends developing a Pinterest strategy to maintain industry leadership and empower women.
The document discusses concepts and principles for effective leadership and communication with employees. It provides guidance on understanding individual strengths and personalities on the team. Leaders are advised to build trust, set high standards, clearly communicate values and priorities, and make sure employees feel informed and that their work is important. Issues should be addressed promptly to reassure employees and prevent problems from escalating. The overall message is that strong leadership requires understanding people both professionally and personally.
• The divergence between dwelling values and income growth occurred against a backdrop of lower mortgage rates, and
• Australian’s generally demonstrate a high elasticity of demand for housing, with lower mortgage rates driving high levels of demand contributing to higher housing values.
A new frontier in services is the introduction of intelligent robots to take over tasks performed by consumers or employees. In this context, we define “robots” as “technology that can perform physical tasks, operate autonomously without needing instruction, and are directed by computers without help from people.” Examples of robotic services in the future may include: renting a car that also performs the driving, riding in a taxi cab without a driver, receiving a package delivered by air by a pilotless drone, interacting with a robotic server at a restaurant, or having manual housework performed by a robotic servant. This presentation shares research from the U.S. market on consumer acceptance of futuristic robotic services and explores the attitudes and beliefs that predict and explain acceptance.
As part of this research, we are also testing a new method for gauging technology acceptance that mirrors the theoretical framework behind the Technology Readiness Index by Parasuraman and Colby (2015).
The presentation will reveal interesting topline findings on general acceptance of robotics in addition to a causal analysis of factors behind acceptance. Our study shows, for instance, that consumers have a high level of interest in a robotic servant to handle menial labor at home (e.g., cleaning toilets and vacuuming), but little interest in riding in a driverless taxi. Consumers strongly believe there is a risk of becoming too dependent on robots, but ironically, this concern tends not to significantly dampen interest in robots. On the other hand, concern with getting robots to operate properly and fear of harm from them are significantly-negative correlates. Acceptance of robots and robotic services correlates with technology readiness, measured by the TRI 2.0 scale.
The basis for our study is the 2015 National Technology Readiness Survey, conducted by Rockbridge Associates, Inc., A. Parasuraman, and sponsored by Center for Excellence at the Robert H. Smith School of Business.

This lesson plan is for a 4th grade class of 16 students, with the goal of teaching them American Sign Language. Over the course of five days, students will learn the history and reasons for ASL, who uses it, how to sign the alphabet, and common signs. Students will work in groups to create posters about people in the deaf community, learn to sign a song via YouTube, and record videos of signed conversations to demonstrate their understanding.

As the Virtual Reality is becoming a standard in the Oil and Gas industry nowadays for training; the trend is to extend this usage to other disciplines throughout the whole LifeCycle of the Asset; starting from the design phase, through handover to Operations and Maintenance.
