Distribution of services within the call center and Covid 19 – a case study
The considerations presented in the paper concern the impact of Covid-19 on sales possibilities in
the pre-paid system and development perspectives of the researched business entity. As part of its operations,
this entity is responsible for the supply of fuel to nearly 4,500 customers conducting business operations throughout Poland. The study was carried out by means of the method of quantitative analysis of economic data. The acquired data constituted a closed set of 518 479 contacts collected as a result of reporting the work of the call center department. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the possibilities of acquiring new customers by the entity that sells pre-paid fuels and the prospects for its future development. The analyzes allowed showing the relationship, before and after the introduction of socioeconomic restrictions, between the number of sales contacts made and their effectiveness. It was proved that
lockdown caused changes in the scope of managing executive operations within the call center of the entity. This, in turn, affected operational and management decisions at both ownership and management levels.

Abstract Integrated reporting, a new development in the reporting landscape,
seeks to concisely communicate a firm’s value through a more holistic picture that
integrates financial and non-financial information. This practice is in its infancy in the
United States and Europe, with many firms unsure of what integrated reporting is,
what its benefits are, and even how to set it up. Drawing upon transcripts from
19 unstructured panel interviews at a global symposium on the subject, we discuss the
business case for integrated reporting, as well as the multitude of challenges a firm
faces when beginning its integrated reporting journey. We also summarize experi-
ences and tips from interviewees on the need for integrated thinking, the most
effective use of the International Integrated Reporting Council’s framework, the best
way to obtain high-quality data, the ideal audience of such reports, and the options
for report assurance.

1. An overview of integrated reporting
There is a high demand for corporate reporting on
integrated financial, social, and environmental
metrics (Stewart, 2015). This demand comes
from a broad set of stakeholders, ranging from
customers and suppliers to investors and employees
(KPMG, 2013). To address this demand, integrated
reporting offers a focus on long-term performance

from various perspectives. Gone are the days where
financial performance is the only measure of a
company’s worth.
Integrated reporting is a relatively new develop-
ment. It seeks to offer a more holistic picture of the
modern corporation by shifting away from stand-
alone sustainability or social responsibility reports,
and toward a document that communicates a broad-
er picture of business model value creation. Adopt-
ers of integrated reporting believe that it makes a
firm’s strategy more transparent and that it instills
greater confidence in the sustainability of the firm’s
business model. Yet despite a growing demand for
transparency, very few U.S. firms are currently
issuing an integrated report (KPMG, 2013).

In an examination led by the Lebanese Federation of Consumer Protection, Lebanon was positioned first among 14 Arab nations regarding high costs for meat, sugar, tea, and drain, and it positioned second when it came to tomato, potato, and vegetable oil costs. The investigation credited these outcomes to the nearness of ineffectively aggressive buyer markets (restraining infrastructures), and to the non-implementation of controls identified with settling business benefit margins.3 These variables and others have added to a noteworthy abatement in the offer of wages in the Gross Domestic Product, which a few substances claim to have achieved a low of 30%.4

In fact, the issue of wages modification wound up noticeably one of the best needs on general society scene over a five-month time frame between September 2011 and January 2012.

Recession is Coming. Is Your Channel Management Team Ready?
Over the last year or so, there has been much talk about another impending recession and how it could impact channel management. The recession theory is based upon historical trends, which suggest business cycles tend to last around five to seven years each. That means every five to seven years we experience some sort of a recession. Eventually the economy recovers, and then something else happens to triggers another recession.

MGMT 640 – Financial Decision Making for Managers
March 31, 2019
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
For the success of every business, there needs to be a strong supporting factor that enforces success. The success of a business indicates that the structure of decision making is tough, strict but at the same time lenient to staff and more importantly customers. Financial management is a very vital factor to consider while engaging in any business activity. Not only is it concerned about customers and staff, but also affects every aspect of the business from managing cash flow and maintaining performance index to developing plans to ensure maximum use of opportunities by business owners. Stakeholders and business owners need to realize the importance of financial management as a tool in business administration since it is the force that ensures continuous development of financial capabilities needed for a business to achieve its full potential.
The macro-economic environment addresses issues concerning behavior. Here are where aAdministrative issues lie. Administration can be categorized into two main categories, administration as a practice and as a science. Administration as a practice mainly addresses the normal routine of business owners and managers and their normal administrative roles in any business entity. Administration as a scientific field is bound to face challenges which are broken down into four main classes. They are discussed fully in this document.
Factors that affect administrative decisions include globalization, cost of control, the relationship between stakeholders and demand on ethical behavior and corporate responsibility. Administrations in different organizations should always be keen to ensure that the named issues are always put under the eye . These factors can greatly affect the performance of a business entity as shall be discussed in this document. Comment by debra touhey: Good start, Khalia. The Executive Summary should explain the problems at hand with potential solutions to those problems. Here is a good reference on writing Executive Summaries:

Create a minimum 10-slide PowerPoint® presentation, including detailed speaker notes or voiceover, in which you analyze your choice of one the following markets or industries:
· The housing market
· Financial markets
· Commodity and stock markets
· An industry of your choice, such as the automobile industry, the airline industry, retail trade, or any other major industry that suffered heavy losses during the Great Recession
Your analysis will extend from the beginning of the Great Recession, which was December 2007, to the present and should include the following:
· An Excel® workbook with the following datasets:
· One dataset related to the U.S. housing industry such as housing starts, the FHFA housing price index, or another dataset of your choice related to the housing market.
· One dataset related to personal or household income or to personal or household saving.
· One dataset related to the labor market such as the unemployment rate, initial claims for unemployment insurance, or another dataset of your choice related to the U.S. labor force.

Abstract Integrated reporting, a new development in the reporting landscape,
seeks to concisely communicate a firm’s value through a more holistic picture that
integrates financial and non-financial information. This practice is in its infancy in the
United States and Europe, with many firms unsure of what integrated reporting is,
what its benefits are, and even how to set it up. Drawing upon transcripts from
19 unstructured panel interviews at a global symposium on the subject, we discuss the
business case for integrated reporting, as well as the multitude of challenges a firm
faces when beginning its integrated reporting journey. We also summarize experi-
ences and tips from interviewees on the need for integrated thinking, the most
effective use of the International Integrated Reporting Council’s framework, the best
way to obtain high-quality data, the ideal audience of such reports, and the options
for report assurance.

1. An overview of integrated reporting
There is a high demand for corporate reporting on
integrated financial, social, and environmental
metrics (Stewart, 2015). This demand comes
from a broad set of stakeholders, ranging from
customers and suppliers to investors and employees
(KPMG, 2013). To address this demand, integrated
reporting offers a focus on long-term performance

from various perspectives. Gone are the days where
financial performance is the only measure of a
company’s worth.
Integrated reporting is a relatively new develop-
ment. It seeks to offer a more holistic picture of the
modern corporation by shifting away from stand-
alone sustainability or social responsibility reports,
and toward a document that communicates a broad-
er picture of business model value creation. Adopt-
ers of integrated reporting believe that it makes a
firm’s strategy more transparent and that it instills
greater confidence in the sustainability of the firm’s
business model. Yet despite a growing demand for
transparency, very few U.S. firms are currently
issuing an integrated report (KPMG, 2013).

Background
Following the finish of the common war and the adjustment of the residential cash by the national bank, the principal compensation change process occurred in 1996, and a novel correction in 2008 allowed a singular amount increment of LBP 200,000 every month for both open and private divisions representatives, conveying the lowest pay permitted by law up to LBP 500,000 from LBP 300,000.1 For the following sixteen years, in any case, there were no wage increments despite the fact that swelling continued rising and achieved a hundred percent and the acquiring energy of the Lebanese individuals began to drop significantly.2
In an examination led by the Lebanese Federation of Consumer Protection, Lebanon was positioned first among 14 Arab nations regarding high costs for meat, sugar, tea, and drain, and it positioned second when it came to tomato, potato, and vegetable oil costs. The investigation credited these outcomes to the nearness of ineffectively aggressive buyer markets (restraining infrastructures), and to the non-implementation of controls identified with settling business benefit margins.3 These variables and others have added to a noteworthy abatement in the offer of wages in the Gross Domestic Product, which a few substances claim to have achieved a low of 30%.4
By mid of 2011, speaks began mounting about the low level of wages that is keeping Lebanese laborers from fulfilling their essential needs in light of rising sustenance costs and the cost of fundamental administrations like power and transportation. In fact, the issue of wages modification wound up noticeably one of the best needs on general society scene over a five-month time frame between September 2011 and January 2012. These discussions were at first supported by a "political open door" that was emerged by the arrangement of another administration in July 2011 and which pronounced putting social equity among its priorities.5 They were likewise convenient on account of the drawing closer of the new scholastic year that involves along the weight of rising school and college educational cost charges.
The procedure began with an exchange among different concerned gatherings, including the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, the Ministry of Labor, monetary bodies, and worker's guilds. Notwithstanding, the level headed discussion swelled into a contention that undermined the solidarity of the administration before coming full circle in the selection of the wage alteration announce No. 7426 amid the January 18, 2012 session of the Lebanese Cabinet.

Recession is Coming. Is Your Channel Management Team Ready?
Over the last year or so, there has been much talk about another impending recession and how it could impact channel management. The recession theory is based upon historical trends, which suggest business cycles tend to last around five to seven years each. That means every five to seven years we experience some sort of a recession. Eventually the economy recovers, and then something else happens to triggers another recession.

MGMT 640 – Financial Decision Making for Managers
March 31, 2019
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
For the success of every business, there needs to be a strong supporting factor that enforces success. The success of a business indicates that the structure of decision making is tough, strict but at the same time lenient to staff and more importantly customers. Financial management is a very vital factor to consider while engaging in any business activity. Not only is it concerned about customers and staff, but also affects every aspect of the business from managing cash flow and maintaining performance index to developing plans to ensure maximum use of opportunities by business owners. Stakeholders and business owners need to realize the importance of financial management as a tool in business administration since it is the force that ensures continuous development of financial capabilities needed for a business to achieve its full potential.
The macro-economic environment addresses issues concerning behavior. Here are where aAdministrative issues lie. Administration can be categorized into two main categories, administration as a practice and as a science. Administration as a practice mainly addresses the normal routine of business owners and managers and their normal administrative roles in any business entity. Administration as a scientific field is bound to face challenges which are broken down into four main classes. They are discussed fully in this document.
Factors that affect administrative decisions include globalization, cost of control, the relationship between stakeholders and demand on ethical behavior and corporate responsibility. Administrations in different organizations should always be keen to ensure that the named issues are always put under the eye . These factors can greatly affect the performance of a business entity as shall be discussed in this document. Comment by debra touhey: Good start, Khalia. The Executive Summary should explain the problems at hand with potential solutions to those problems. Here is a good reference on writing Executive Summaries:

ABSTRACT
The Emergency Department (ED) is a key source of care for
victims of sexual violence but there is little information available about
the extent to which EDs are prepared to provide this care. This study
examines the structural and process factors that the ED has in place to
assist victims. A survey of all 82 publicly accessible EDs in the
Commonwealth of Virginia was conducted (RR 76%). In general, the
EDs provide the recommended medical care to victims. However, at
least half do not have the needed resources in place to effectively assist
victims and most (80%) do not provide regular training to their medical
staff about sexual violence. Further, almost one-quarter do not have a
relationship with a local rape crisis center. It is recommended that each
ED partner with local rape crisis centers to provide training to their
staff and to ensure continuity of support for victims. It is also
suggested that the state government explore ways in which a forensic
(SANE) nurse be made available to every victim of sexual violence that
presents to the ED for medical assistance. Ideally, each ED would
become part of a community-wide Sexual Assault Response Team
286 JHHSA WINTER 2006
(SART) in order to provide comprehensive care to victims and
thorough evidence collection and information to law enforcement.
INTRODUCTION
This study seeks to examine the extent to which
Emergency Departments (EDs) in the Commonwealth of
Virginia are prepared to provide care for victims of sexual
violence through an examination of both structural and
process factors that are currently in place. Many studies
indicate that sexual violence victimization has both long-
term and short-term health consequences (Plichta and Falik,
2001; see also Rentoul and Applebloom 1997; Cloutier,
Martin and Poole, 2002; Bohn and Holz, 1996). The ED is
a key source of care for victims of sexual assault. It is one
of the first points of entry to care. Competent care by
professionals trained in treating sexual assault victims is
critical to the timely recovery of physical and mental
health. The ED also plays a critical role in the collection of
evidence that may lead to the conviction of the perpetrator
and a recent study found that specially trained (forensic)
nurses perform this function significantly better than do
other staff (Sievers, Murphy and Miller, 2003). Forensic
nurses are registered nurses (R.N.’s) who have advanced
training in the examination of sexual assault victims; this
includes training on legal aspe.

The Elements and Principles of Design A Guide to Design Term.docx
The Elements and Principles of Design
A Guide to Design Terminology
The elements of design are some of the basic building blocks that make up the design or artwork.
Understanding and using this terminology can help the designer articulate what works and what doesn’t
work in a design, and to think critically about a design on a more conscious level. Combined, the elements
and principles of design can make for a strong, complete and well-established composition. The principles
of Gestalt, which arise from the elements of design, are included at the end of this document. Learning to
use these elements and principles will be the focus of Beginning Design.
The elements of design are: Point, Line, Form, Value, Texture, Shape, Space, Color
(Color is covered in Art 110; we will be focusing on black, white, and gray scale values.)
DEFINITIONS:
A Point is a position in space.
A Line is the path of a moving point. Two points connected make a line. Lines often imply motion, and can
be rendered in a variety of ways. Contour lines or outlines, define the boundary between shapes. Lines can
create texture or value when used in crosshatching. In addition to these types of actual lines, our eyes can
invent implied lines, such as in dotted lines, or where area boundaries describe lines that may not be there.
Shape is a two dimensional form. The variety of possible shapes is endless. Several common ones are as
follows:
• Simple Geometric: circles, squares, triangles are some of the examples.
• Complex Geometric: straight and curved shapes that have more sides and angles.
• Curvilinear: French curves, ellipses, circles and ovals used in combination.
• Accidental: an example of this might be a coffee ring or paint splatters.
Form is a shape with dimension, an object existing in three dimensional space physically or implied.
Value is the tone created by black, white and shades of gray. The value or tone of an element can create
mass, dimension, emphasis or volume.
Texture can be actual or visual.
• Actual texture is tactile: you can feel it by touching it.
• Visual texture are the markings of a two dimensional artwork that imply actual texture.
Space is an illusion or feeling of 3-dimensionality, which can be created in a two-dimensional design in
several ways, for example:
• Overlapping one object in front of another;
• Using differences in value, amount of detail, etc. between elements;
• Using techniques related to linear perspective, such as differences in size or height on page between
elements
The principles of design are: Unity, Variety, Movement, Balance, Emphasis, Contrast, Proportion,
and Pattern.
DEFINITIONS:
Unity or harmony is the quality of wholeness or oneness that is achieved through the effective use of the
elements and principles of design. The most basic quality of a design or artwork, unity gives a piece the

The eligibility requirements to become a family nurse practition.docx
The eligibility requirements to become a family nurse practitioner include completion of “APRN core (advance physical assessment, advanced pharmacology, and advanced pathophysiology), supervised clinical hours, completion of an accredited graduate program with evidence of an academic transcript, and an active nurse license” (American Academy of Nurse Practitioners, 2021).
The value associated with certification as an FNP is very personal to me. Along with providing higher quality care to clientele, I will have a more fulfilled inner sense of purpose and also be able to provide for my family in a higher capacity than I was previously able to, with an estimated average nurse practitioner salary being over $100,000 annually in the state of Wisconsin. Achieving both my master's and nurse practitioner certification would allow my employer, fellow professional comrades, and most of all; my clients, to have a higher sense of security knowing I’ve worked and studied hard to bring them the highest quality care available. Staying up to date on my continuing education and state-of-the-art processes and pathology will also instill confidence in my clientele to not only continue coming to me with their individual and family healthcare needs but likely will ensure referrals into my practice.
Any time a nurse genuinely takes on a holistic approach towards the practical application of nursing theory, a client is in a better position for patient-centered care, maintaining anonymity, and ensuring positive effective communication during the care process. In the nursing profession, nurses need to not only advocate for their clients, but themselves by participating in associations that work towards advancing the field through by working towards lower nurse-to-client ratios to decrease burnout, leadership education, and opportunity, and also grants to advance continuing education.

ABSTRACT
Creating and running software produces large amounts of raw data
about the development process and the customer usage, which can
be turned into actionable insight with the help of skilled data scien-
tists. Unfortunately, data scientists with the analytical and software
engineering skills to analyze these large data sets have been hard to
come by; only recently have software companies started to develop
competencies in software-oriented data analytics. To understand
this emerging role, we interviewed data scientists across several
product groups at Microsoft. In this paper, we describe their educa-
tion and training background, their missions in software engineer-
ing contexts, and the type of problems on which they work. We
identify five distinct working styles of data scientists: (1) Insight
Providers, who work with engineers to collect the data needed to
inform decisions that managers make; (2) Modeling Specialists,
who use their machine learning expertise to build predictive mod-
els; (3) Platform Builders, who create data platforms, balancing
both engineering and data analysis concerns; (4) Polymaths, who
do all data science activities themselves; and (5) Team Leaders,
who run teams of data scientists and spread best practices. We fur-
ther describe a set of strategies that they employ to increase the im-
pact and actionability of their work.

1. INTRODUCTION
Software teams are increasingly using data analysis to inform their
engineering and business decisions [1] and to build data solutions
that utilize data in software products [2]. The people who do col-
lection and analysis are called data scientists, a term coined by DJ
Patil and Jeff Hammerbacher in 2008 to define their jobs at
LinkedIn and Facebook [3]. The mission of a data scientist is to
transform data into insight, providing guidance for leaders to take
action [4]. One example is the use of user telemetry data to redesign
Windows Explorer (a tool for file management) for Windows 8.
Data scientists on the Windows team discovered that the top ten
most frequent commands accounted for 81.2% of all of invoked
commands, but only two of these were easily accessible from the
command bar in the user interface 8 [5]. Based on this insight, the
team redesigned the user experience to make these hidden com-
mands more prominent.
Until recently, data scientists were found mostly on software teams
whose products were data-intensive, like internet search and adver-
tising. Today, we have reached an inflection point where many.

The Early Novel in the Western World Listen to the AudioEarly We.docx
The Early Novel in the Western World
Listen to the Audio
Early Western literature, especially the picaresque tale, flourished in Spain. These often quite long stories narrated the adventures of a soldier of fortune living the carefree life on the open road and getting involved in all sorts of intrigues and love affairs. The Spanish also had tales similar to the King Arthur legends, dealing with the adventures on the road of brave and dashing knights who were superheroes; tremendous in battle and noble and chivalrous toward their true loves.
The first known major novelist of the Western world was Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547–1616), whose life span closely parallels Shakespeare’s. His Don Quixote (written between 1612 and 1615) remains one of the most popular and beloved of all novels. The central character is an old man who has read so many stories of brave knights that he has gone mad and believes himself to be one of them. Riding a broken-down old horse named Rocinante and attended by his faithful squire Sancho Panza, he goes off in search of glorious adventure (Figure 4.1). Intended originally as a satire on the ridiculous excesses of the wandering knight story, Don Quixote became, in the opinion of many, a tragic tale of an idealist who sees the world not as it is but as it ought to be: a world in which people are driven by the noblest of motives, chivalry prevails, and love means forever. As an adventure story, Don Quixote influenced the work of many novelists who followed, setting the pattern for long, loosely structured yarns that would find a home in the magazine serials of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The serial was a publishing gimmick, each episode ending with the hero or heroine in a perilous strait, and thus keeping the reader coming back to purchase more issues.
The English novel had its true beginnings in the eighteenth century. The coming of the magazine fostered a passion for fiction that had potential novelists busily scribbling. But the period was also one of a passion for science and its search for truth. Those who dictated the taste of the reading public insisted that a lengthy published work, to be worth the time spent in reading it, must at least pretend to be a true story. Consequently, much fiction was passed off as biography or autobiography, and this meant that the author’s real name was often omitted. For example, Gulliver’s Travels (1726) by Jonathan Swift and Robinson Crusoe (1719) by Daniel Defoe, two enduringly popular works of fiction, pretended to be nonfictional accounts of actual adventures, and Pamela: Virtue Rewarded (1740), by Samuel Richardson was an epistolary novel, consisting solely of letters “written” by its 15-year-old heroine.
American writers were slow to gain recognition and respect abroad. In the early nineteenth century, British critics were asking, “Who reads an American book or goes to see an American play?” These questions incurred the wrath of American authors, who promp.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
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.
Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
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.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
