Keynote speech to Aviation industry leaders on 'Aviation Futures Driving Forces, Global Challenges and Potential Disruptions' shaping the next 30 years. Highlighting major factors shaping the operating environment and decision making context for governments, businesses, aviation industry players and regulators over the next three decades. A particular emphasis on emerging disruptive and potentially transformative developments in science and technology.
The Conference
The Energy sector is changing: the challenging economic landscape has forced businesses to scrutinise their operations in pursuit of greater productivity and asset efficiency. Meanwhile, the market is growing increasingly diverse as renewables mature and new entrants emerge.
Against this backdrop, digital is becoming increasingly pervasive as companies turn to technology to modernise processes and deliver competitive advantage; from remote monitoring and automation, to data analytics, Machine Learning, asset visualisation and HPC.
Now in its 6th year, the conference has established itself as the largest annual Digital Energy summit in the country: the event brings together senior IT, Digital and business leaders, providing a unique forum for knowledge exchange, discussion and high-level networking. The programme will explore the use of Information Technology in driving tangible outcomes across the organisation, looking at key trends and providing practical insight from an array of industry leaders.

Digital transformation can be defined as a process whereby an organization shifts their business models, processes, and organizational culture with digital technologies to adapt to changing customer behaviors. They adapt to meet ever-changing customer expectations and engage with consumers in innovative ways. Transformational journeys require acurate assessments, learning, growth, and monitoring of:
1) People and Culture;
2) Capacity and Capabilities;
3) Innovation; and
4) Technology.

Tech Trends features perspectives from client executives, industry and academic luminaries,
and our global network of Deloitte professionals, all exploring major trends that are helping
organizations innovate in the digital era. We also examine the roadmaps and investment priorities
of start-ups, venture capitalists, and leading technology vendors.
As you read the following chapters, we challenge you to think beyond the āwhatā of digital
innovationāthe shiny objects, applications, and capabilitiesāto the āso whatāāhow you will
harness emerging trends, innovation, and disruption to create real business value. Viewing the
horizon through this paradigm, recognize that the precision to which weāve all become accustomed
may no longer be a given; in the age of digital innovation, we are exploring largely uncharted
territory. Moreover, any digital transformation journey should also address the more practical
realities of todayāreimagining core systems, industrializing analytics capabilities, building
autonomic platformsāwhich are by no means trivial.
Over the next 18ā24 months, the only constant may be the specter of constant change. Amid this
turmoil, organizations that can confidently and purposefully harness technology trends will find
great opportunities to refocus, to revitalize, or even to inspire. Think beyond incremental adoption
patterns. Look not only for ways to do familiar things differently, but also to do fundamentally
different things. Launch new processes, products, and services, and seek out new ways to compete.
No matter what the scope, the time for you to act is now. Build tomorrow, starting today.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Ā
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.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
Ā
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
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Ā
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. Youāll also learn

Key Trends, Challenges and Choices
69. The Ark Hotel
ā¢ Builders in China put up the Ark Hotel - a 30-storey 183,000-square-foot
hotel in 15 days / 360 hours. None of the workers suffered any injuries
during the construction process.
ā¢ The hotel was built on Dongting lake in the Hunan Province, by Broad
Group, a Chinese construction company which specialises in sustainable
architecture. Tests suggest that the building should be able to withstand a
magnitude 9 earthquake. The China Academy of Building Research claims
the hotel is five times more quake-resistant than conventional buildings.
ā¢ All the materials were prefabricated and sections were built to specification
off-site, so there was very little wastage during the construction process.

70. The Ark Hotel
ā¢ Reportedly, the builders took just 46 hours to finish the main structural
components and another 90 hours to finish the building enclosure.
ā¢ The structure is soundproofed and thermal-insulated. There is air quality
monitoring in every room.
ā¢ The pervious record of the same firm is was a smaller 15-story building
constructed in just six days.

71. Land Airbus - China
ā¢ Inhabitat (2013) reports that TBS China has unveiled the Land Airbus ā a
giant car-swallowing bus that could potentially hit the streets of China.
ā¢ The vehicle is longer than previous versions, it can bend around corners,
and it travels along rails to enable smaller vehicles to pass underneath.
ā¢ The innovative urban transportation solution has a high-tech interior that is
entered via a glass elevator that drops down at air lift stations. While
passengers are getting on and off the vehicle, there is no hold up in traffic ā
cars just keep going under the Land Airbus.
ā¢ TBS China claims that, compared to Metro, the new public transportation
vehicle would cost less, have a shorter construction period and almost
match passenger capacity.

72. Hyperloop - The Future of Travel
ā¢ Hyperloop is a conceptual system that could transport passengers in pods
at near-supersonic speed ā the vision of billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk.
ā¢ This transport concept could provide a viable alternative to short-haul travel,
high-speed rail and travelling by car.
ā¢ Hyperloop could reduce the journey time between Los Angeles and San
Francisco to just 30 minutes, compared to 75 minutes by plane and 5.5
hours by car.
ā¢ The concept is based on pods travelling through a low-pressure tube that
would be suspended above the ground.

73. Hyperloop - The Future of Travel
ā¢ Pods would have a compressor on the front to pass the air to the rear and
some of the air would be used to create a cushion underneath the pod on
which it could ride. Electric induction motors at the beginning, middle and
end points of the tube would be used to accelerate and decelerate the pods.
ā¢ Musk believes the whole system could run on solar power, ticket prices
should be as low as $20.
ā¢ The Hyperloop could reduce travel times greatly and provide excellent
passenger experience. However, one of the biggest challenges is that much
of the technology that is needed for Hyperloop to become a reality doesnāt
yet exist.

74. Hyperloop - The Future of Travel
ā¢ Development costs for the project are estimated at $6Bn - ten-times less than
the cost of the high-speed rail link between San Francisco and LA. Much more
than that would be needed for developing and testing new technologies.
ā¢ Also, the preliminary concept envisages a system of tubes and capsules that
would travel directly above the California highway between LA and San
Francisco.
ā¢ It is not clear how long will it take to convince the government and the public
that a building a futuristic transport system directly above a highway is a
sensible and safe idea.

75. Frontier Airlines ā A La Carte Pricing
Model
ā¢ In December 2013 Frontier Airlines became the first U.S. airline to unveil a
new āmenu-pricingā fare structure, in which passengers can choose from
among three different pricing levels: Classic Plus, Classic, and Economy.
ā¢ Classic Plus ticket ā costs about $55 more than a Classic ticket on a New
York-Los Angeles one-way flight; itās fully refundable, and includes priority
boarding, advanced seat assignments, two free checked bags, free DirecTV, a
150-percent frequent flier mileage credit, a snack and a "premium" beverage.
ā¢ Classic ticket ā costs about $25 more than the Economy ticket, gets
passengers advanced seat assignments, two free checked bags, free DirecTV,
and a 125-percent frequent flier mileage credit. Ticket change fees are $50,
down from the normal $100.

76. Frontier Airlines ā A La Carte Pricing
Model
ā¢ Economy ā no free perks included in this category, or increased mileage
earnings. Frontier charges economy passengers $15 for the first checked
bag, and $25 for the second. Snacks on long flights are $3.
ā¢ Air Canada has had a similar price structure for years. some U.S airlines
are rumored to be thinking about moving in this direction, including
American Airlines.
ā¢ Menu pricing has proven to be a money-maker for Air Canada and is very
popular among passengers.

77. Various Airline Pricing Schemes
ā¢ āāPay-by-the-poundāā model is only one of several weird, possibly
unwelcomed ways that flights might be priced down the line.
ā¢ Before Samoa Air announced plans to introduce the model, Ryanair was
speculating with a āfat taxā on overweight passengers.
ā¢ Samoa Air CEO Chris Langton seems to agree that āāpay-as-you-weighā
structure āmay provide significant benefits to airlines, passengers and
society at largeā.
ā¢ Samoa Air flies very small planes (12-seaters), and its clientele tends to
be on the heavy side. Passengers account for far larger percentage of the
total mass than fliers do on the big planes flown by mainstream carriers.

78. Various Airline Pricing Schemes
ā¢ For the vast majority of airlines with hundreds of fliers in per flight
weighing each passenger with baggage would be a logistical nightmare.
Airlines could also face boycotts and charges of discrimination.
ā¢ Therefore instead of weight-based pricing, passengers are more likely to
encounter more and more ādebundlingā of airfares.
ā¢ A study by IdeaWorks highlights three airline pricing models that aim to
boost ancillary revenues.
ā¢ One model is pure a la carte sales practised by low-fare carriers like Spirit
Airlines, in which pretty much everything other than basic transportation
costs extra and is priced individually.
Source: TIME, 08/04/2013: http://business.time.com/2013/04/08/air-travel-by-the-pound-and-other-odd-airline-pricing-schemes/
79. Various Airline Pricing Schemes
ā¢ Other models present travellers with a range of pricing options that allow
customers to pick (and pay for) the flight and package of services that best
suit their needs. These fare structures have proven to be quite lucrative for
airlines āthe average Spirit passenger pays $103 in ancillary fees per
round trip.
ā¢ Other pricing models:
ā¢ Variable pricing system ā In this model passengers agree to pay based on
the cost of fuel at the time of takeoff. Customers would pay one price
when they book flights, and then later could be charged more if fuel prices
rise between the time of purchase and departure.

80. Various Airline Pricing Schemes
ā¢ Personalised pricing model ā in this model airfares that show up in web
searches are determined partly on the individualās travel and purchase
history, as well as factors like oneās marital status and nationality.
ā¢ Travel advocates argue that such a pricing scheme amounts to āprofilingā
and that it would particularly discriminate against business travellers and
others that have limited flexibility with flight times.
ā¢ The worldās biggest airlines are among those supporting Resolution 787,
the proposed initiative that would allow such āpersonalizedā pricing.

81. The Worldās Top Innovative Companies
in Travel
ā¢ 1. AIRBNB
ā¢ The Fast Company rates Airbnb as the most innovative travel company for
making the most of its hosts. By the summer of 2014, Airbnb is expected
to usurp the InterContinental Hotels Group and Hilton Worldwide as the
world's largest hotel chain--without owning a single hotel.
ā¢ The startup allows users to rent out their spare rooms or vacant homes to
strangers. It surpassed 10 million stays on its platform in 2013 and
doubled its listings to 550,000 in 192 countries. The company also tripled
revenue to an estimated $250 million.

82. Luxury Travel Trends
ā¢ Travellers engage in at least one of the following four activities while at an airport -
eating (and drinking), shopping, working or relaxing.
ā¢ A network of business-class lounges, duty-free shops and food courts have been
developed to help travellers to better spend their time. Airlines are now seeking to
distinguish their brands further by offering addition services designed to meet the
demands and desires of their business- and first-class customers.
ā¢ Luxury consumersā desire to cram more value, information, entertainment and
choice into each moment is growing exponentially. Travel time is a multi-tasking
opportunity and airlines that stand out are the ones that allow their customers to go
beyond the four aforementioned activities and experience something new.

83. Luxury Travel Trends
ā¢ Some airports, airlines and travel brands are servicing the growing need
for immersive experiences while in transit.
ā¢ 1) Virgin Atlantic ā in February 2013 the airline opened the Gallery in the
Air, enabling Upper Class passengers on the carrierās New York to London
routes to purchase original artworks by Ben Eine while on board. A
selection of the British artistās works were displayed at clubhouses in JFK,
Newark and Heathrow airports, while passengers could view a virtual
gallery tour of ten one-off pieces during their flight. The artworks were
priced at Ā£2,500 to Ā£15,000, and could be purchased by placing a 25 per
cent deposit with Virgin Atlantic cabin attendants.

French artistic and cultural heritage. The museum space was opened in January 2013
and offers free access to passengers. Exhibitions in the Museum Space change every
six months.
ā¢ 4) British Airways completed āUnGroundedā, an 11-hour innovation lab that took place
during a transatlantic flight from San Francisco to London in March 2013. 100
participants chosen by the BA advisory board were tasked with designing a platform that
addressed the misalignment of emerging science and technology talent and
development opportunities. When the flight landed, participants presented their ideas at
the annual Decide Now Act Summit.

cover, as well as a foreword and a personal note from the Qantas CEO. The books
are available for free to Qantas Platinum Fliers on a variety of routes.
ā¢ 6) The Mexican government launched āMayan Paradeā on 21 December 2012, an
exhibition in airports across Europe and North and South America to celebrate
Mayan culture at the end of the Mayan calendar. Artists from Mexico, the US, and
Brazil were invited to decorate fibreglass statues of the Mayan emperor Pakal.
Each sculpture features a QR code linking to augmented reality content on the
exhibition.

ā¢ 7) During 2013 SXSW conference and festival, American Airlines
announced their āNapkin Pitch Contestā onboard flights to Austin, Texas ā
where the festival takes place. Passengers were invited to outline an
entrepreneurial venture on the airlineās branded napkins and submit it to
their lounge at the Austin Convention Center or the Startup America
Lounge at the Austin Hilton.
ā¢ Apanel of business and innovation experts awarded winners with bundles
of American Airlines air miles.

Planning
ā¢ Nextpedition was developed by American Express, primarily targeting
twentysomethigs, and creates trips based on a personās travel profile without the
person knowing where she/ he is going until the last minute.
ā¢ A short survey is used to find a personās travel sign. Then three of the top travel
signs that suit are person are revealed, one of these can be chosen. The next step
is to request a consultation plus connecting the Nextpedition Facebook app to a
profile. A specialist plans the trip without revealing any details. Just before the trip,
the traveller receives the necessary documents plus a digital handheld travel
console which reveals the itinerary.
ā¢ Domestic trips start at $1,000; Europe trips start at $2,500; 7-day minimum;
booking must be done at least 30 days in advance.
