Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
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.

At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Document: L/C Document: Sales Contract
Definition of a Documentary Credits It’s a conditional obligation to make payment to a exporter. The payment is conditional upon the exporter’s compliance with the terms & conditions specified in the Letter of Credit (L/C). The exporter needs to present various documents stipulated in the L/C. The bank’s undertaking gives the exporter a promise of payment in exchange for documents that enable the importer to take delivery of goods. Links / brings reader to the screen of Documentary Credit Process Flowchart 2. Documentary Credit (DC) is available by : By Sight Negotiation – the most common type. Issuing bank requires a sight draft to be presented as part of the stipulated documents. Negotiation bank would not pay beneficiary but only to negotiate (means the negotiation bank has the right to recourse back to the beneficiary if not reimbursed by the Issuing bank). Sight payment – nominate the bank to effect payment to the L/C beneficiary against presentation of stipulated documents. Deferred payment - nominate the bank to effect payment to the L/C beneficiary against presentation of stipulated documents in a future date e.g. 60 days from date of Bill of Lading. 3.

Ocean Bill of Lading (Ocean B/L) - Document indicating that the exporter will consign a shipment to an international carrier for transportation to a specified foreign market. Unlike an inland B/L, the ocean B/L also serves as a collection document. Straight Bill of Lading – When an Ocean B/L is a Straight B/L the foreign buyer can obtain the shipment from the carrier by simply showing proof of identity. We cannot use Straight B/L to transfer cargo ownership. Negotiable Bill of Lading – When an Ocean B/L is a negotiable B/L (drawn under “ To Order ” consignee), it can be used to transfer the cargo ownership. Original Bill of Lading (OBL) - A document which requires proper signatures for consummating carriage of contract. Sea Waybill (or Express B/L) - A special facility granted by carrier under guarantees from shipper/consignee to release cargo without presenting original B/L. Shipped Bill of Lading – Also known as Shipped on Board B/L. A bill of lading issued only after the goods have actually been shipped on board the vessel, as distinguished from the received for shipment bill of lading.
CMI (The Comite Maritime International) – It is a non-governmental international organization. Its objective is to contribute by all appropriate means and activities to the unification of maritime law in all its aspect.
