Performance appraisals strike back - Accelerating productivity on-the-goAlix Bourras
The fast paced, dynamic environment that makes SMBs so attractive to employees is also what prevents managers to give regular feedback to their employees. Yet regular feedback is probably the most important aspect of performance reviews, as those ongoing discussions are what will have the most positive impact on productivity in your business.
Companies such as GE, Accenture, Adobe and Deloitte have recently shifted away from annual performance reviews to an ongoing feedback model, for several reasons:
They are a chore, for managers and employees alike
One central conversation gets all the attention, when frequent, bite-size feedback is the most efficient
Worse, annual reviews tend to promote bad management.
Review this presentation to understand the new paradigm of performance appraisals, and its extended benefits to employee engagement and motivation (if you do it the right way).

How to Build Products in High-Growth Companies by Zillow Sr PMProduct School
Main Takeaways:
-Speed is a top priority from decision to execution; therefore, always remember that “done is better than perfect”
-Your product vision and NorthStar need to be clear because circumstances will be ambiguous
-Customers are your guide, especially in the absence of precedent data. Listen to what they say, not just the numbers
In the past Business Development has required teams of analysts to search, identify and analyze potential clients by actionable circumstance then prioritize by organizational skill. The idea of creating and monitoring brand awareness has vastly modernized with the organization of public and proprietary news sources and real-time media monitoring. Client Intelligence today becomes business intelligence tomorrow when automated aggregation capabilities replace eyes-on media monitoring. Imagine a business development landscape where you set your personal or organization’s skills, priorities and specialties then watch the world of news reporting and content production fill the past, present and future of your business development goals.

Up Your Analytics Game: How to Empower People to Take ActionNaba Ahmed
HR leaders in Financial Services are adopting the use of data and analytics faster than many other business functions and job roles. For so long their focus has been within the HR function; they express doubt regarding their ability to collaborate effectively with their Finance counterparts to uncover actionable insights. In fact, in a recent survey of 450 Financial Services professionals, 95% of respondents agreed that better integration of HR and Finance data was a top priority for the year.
Why is this so important? Because the demands on HR have changed significantly, as HR leaders move into a more strategic role. It requires both an increasingly forward-looking workforce strategy, and quantification of HR’s business contributions. This is compounded for the Financial Services sector, which is faced with rapidly changing regulatory and compliance requirements, and the need to attract and retain tech-savvy talent in an industry that is sometimes viewed as more traditional and less tech-savvy.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.
