Technical writing is a type of communication that is used to convey technical information to a specific audience. It can take many forms, including user manuals, product specifications, technical reports, and white papers. The goal of technical writing is to communicate complex information in a clear and concise manner, so that the intended audience can easily understand and use the information.
Technical writing often involves the use of specialized terminology and jargon, which can make it challenging for non-technical readers to understand. To overcome this challenge, technical writers must be skilled at breaking down complex concepts into simpler terms and using clear, concise language to explain technical concepts. They must also be able to organize information in a logical and easy-to-follow manner, using headings, subheadings, and bullet points to help readers navigate the content.
Some common tools used in technical writing include word processing software, desktop publishing software, and graphic design tools. Technical writers may also use specialized software to create diagrams, flowcharts, and other visual aids to help explain complex concepts.
Overall, technical writing is an important skill for anyone working in a technical field, as it is essential for effectively communicating complex information to a wide range of audiences.
Job Hunting - Check out this plan for the first 90 days in a new role!.pptxJon Stephenson
One of the questions you often get asked during a job interview is what you'd do in your first 90 days in the role.
I think it's a great question because it gives you the opportunity to explain your methodology and assess whether you're a good cultural fit for the organisation based upon their reaction.
I strongly believe that if you want to hit the floor running in your new role, your first move should be to learn about, and engage with, your new organisation - your colleagues, stakeholders, customers, suppliers, systems and processes. You need to earn the right, by understanding the business, before you can make informed decisions, provide support and propose changes.
My tried and tested approach is a variation on Deming's Plan, Do, Check, Act but with an additional Check at the outset.
I've captured my 90-day plan on a couple of slides - I hope you find them useful.

The rational model is the first attempt to know the decision-making process.
As per the rational decision-making model, the decision-maker has full or perfect information about alternatives and he devotes sufficient time to understand the situation and make decisions.
A rational decision-making model is a multi-step process for making choices between various alternatives. The process of rational decision-making favors logic, objectivity, & analysis over subjectivity and insight.
“Decision-making involves the selection of a course of action from among two or more possible alternatives in order to arrive at a solution for a given problem”

SME" typically stands for "Subject Matter Expert." In the context of engineering design, SMEs play a crucial role in providing specialized knowledge and guidance throughout the design process. Here's how SMEs are typically involved in engineering design:
Technical Expertise: SMEs possess deep knowledge and experience in specific areas of engineering, such as mechanical, electrical, civil, or software engineering. They contribute their expertise to ensure that the design meets technical requirements, standards, and regulations.
Problem Solving: SMEs often participate in brainstorming sessions and problem-solving activities to address complex engineering challenges. Their insights help identify potential issues early in the design process and develop effective solutions.
Design Review: SMEs participate in design reviews to evaluate the feasibility, functionality, and safety of proposed designs. They provide critical feedback and recommendations to improve the design and mitigate risks.
Validation and Testing: SMEs collaborate with design teams to develop testing procedures and validate design concepts through simulations, prototypes, and experiments. They ensure that the design performs as intended under various operating conditions.
Continuous Improvement: Throughout the design process, SMEs contribute to continuous improvement initiatives by identifying areas for optimization, efficiency gains, and cost reductions. Their feedback helps refine the design and enhance its overall quality.
Knowledge Transfer: SMEs often mentor junior engineers and share their expertise to build the capabilities of the design team. They provide guidance on best practices, industry trends, and emerging technologies relevant to engineering design.
Tools and techniques for making collaborative decisions in complex environments. The approach outlined herein uses individual weighted decision matrices, which are compiled into a final numerical score of fitness.

Decision-making is regarded as the cognitive process resulting in the selection of a belief or a course of action among several possible alternative options. It could be either rational or irrational. The decision-making process is a reasoning process based on assumptions of values, preferences and beliefs of the decision-maker.[1] Every decision-making process produces a final choice, which may or may not prompt action.
Decision-making is an important leadership skill because it helps managers. Effective decisions can save time and propel work projects forward, increasing employee productivity.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
