Virtual teams are becoming more common as economic activity becomes more dispersed globally. There are several challenges to managing virtual teams effectively. To address these challenges, it is important to:
1) Get to know all team members personally to build trust and bonds even though you cannot interact in person.
2) Keep everyone in the loop by sharing information openly and having periodic team calls to maintain collaboration and pace.
3) Clearly allocate responsibilities and use task trackers to ensure all work is properly distributed and progressing as planned.
4) Discuss potentially controversial issues early on to set a tone of trust and avoid last-minute pressures.

Descripción de los ensayos, pruebas y certificaciones que Xypex tiene a nivel mundial.
Los PRODUCTOS IMPERMEABILIZANTES POR CRISTALIZACION XYPEX, son desarrollos realizados exclusivamente en Canadá, con una tecnología propia, especial y completa y diferente de cualquier otro tipo de producto impermeabilizante, tal como lo especifican todos los detalles técnicos y las comprobaciones de laboratorio que más adelante se explican.
IMG_20150306_163855395Todos los empaques Xypex indican su procedencia exclusiva. y son compuestos de polvo seco, constituidos por cemento Portland, arena silícea y varios químicos muy activos que, al ser aplicados en forma de revestimiento pastoso (lechada) al concreto, dan lugar a una reacción catalítica en los poros y en los conductos capilares del substrato del concreto. Esta reacción genera el crecimiento de cristales fibrosos no soluble, que se desarrollan internamente en el concreto al cuál se aplica, los cuales sellan herméticamente la penetración de agua, (u otros líquidos) en cualquier dirección.
Para crear su efecto impermeabilizante por cristalización, Xypex llega a formar parte integral de la masa de concreto. Toma ventaja de las características naturales e inherentes del concreto: el concreto es un compuesto poroso y químico. Por medio del proceso químico de difusión los reactivos de Xypex usan el agua como un medio de migración y penetración en los tractos capilares del concreto. Este proceso precipita una reacción química entre Xypex, la humedad y los productos químicos provenientes de la hidratación del cemento ( sales minerales, hidróxidos de calcio, óxidos minerales y partículas no hidratadas del cemento). El resultado es la producción de una estructura de cristales químicos, no solubles que taponan los poros y tractos capilares del concreto. En dichas condiciones los poros son sellados y el concreto se vuelve impenetrable por el agua y cualquier otro líquido en cualquier dirección. El proceso cristalino Xypex se reactiva siempre que el agua está presente.
COMO IMPERMEABILIZA XYPEX EL CONCRETO?
Pruebas realizadas por un importante laboratorio independiente de conformidad con la especificación USA ARMY CORPS PERMEABILITY SPECIFICATION CRD-C-48- 73 muestran que la aplicación de una capa de 2 mm. de espesor del producto XYPEX CONCENTRADO sobre una lámina de concreto poroso de 2.000 psi y de 2 pulgadas de espesor, elimina TOTALMENTE las filtraciones de una cabeza de agua equivalente a 125 metros (12 bar). Debe observarse que este valor de 125 metros de presión de agua no fue el límite soportado por XYPEX sino el límite de los aparatos de prueba.
TECNOLOGÍA XYPEX.
Cuando Xypex se mezcla con un poco de agua y se aplica como una capa cementosa sobre el concreto húmedo, los químicos activos de XYPEX penetran profundamente dentro del concreto húmedo, produciendo una formación cristalina insoluble que llena y tapona los poros y capilares contra el pa

Ten tips for best practices in managing virtual work teams using the web. Good team management is tested by having employees in remote or distant locations. Success depends on a little creative thought when adding exciting new tools that will assist you with your good old-fashioned management skills. Choose tools that are gaining traction and your virtual team management life will not only be productive, but it can be a lot of fun.
Organisations are experiencing a significant shift in the way business is done. The culmination of the pandemic and advancement of technology has driven business leaders to think and move in the direction of remote and hybrid work.
With this new way of work and the flexibility it brings, employees find it easy to do their day-to-day work and become more productive. However, with every benefit, there's an equal challenge. Teams find it difficult to maintain personal work-life balance. In addition, they find fewer opportunities to collaborate and engage with their colleagues. This leads to a reduced sense of productivity and engagement.
Moreso, business leaders struggle to manage a distributed workforce and ensure they have the same work experience. They grapple with the challenges of virtual meetings, low employee engagement, and creating a workplace environment that supports work-life balance.
The onus lies with leaders to be more purposeful about how they design hybrid work and develop and implement strategies that will ensure its optimisation and effectiveness.
In this deck, you will learn the methods to optimise your team's effectiveness. You will also learn;

Julia:
There is an art to projecting management. Knowing how to move a group of people who all has a common goal but all have a different point of views takes some skills this person will also need systematization. But along with a person to help everyone stay focus and moving the technology that is used for communication is also very important. Making sure everyone can communicate and send files that everyone can case and edit can help keep the project moving forward. Picking the right software from the beginning will make the sharing of information easy. Now for Brook’s Law, I believe if the right people are added and understand the objective this may not slow down the project. Adding a programmer or someone else to help write the simple code like for a table whiles the other people who have been on the project creates the more complex code is a great use of adding people. Everything about project management is about placement and communication.

Hi Class,
“Project Management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques applied to project activities in order to meet the project requirements. Project management is a process that includes planning, putting the project plan into action, and measuring progress and performance.” I think a good project manager makes sure the project is completed within the time scheduled, within budget and good quality. While it is rare that a project goes without any mishaps, a good project manager would be able to catch those issues early if he/she is communicating and writing things down as the project progresses.
I think Fredric Brooks book The Mythical Man-Monthdoes have some truth to it still to this day especially regarding communication. While technology has advanced and there are smarter people, if the communication is not clear on how a project should go, workers' interpretations of what they thought was stated, could lead to a disaster. Knowledgeable, skilled workers who are not afraid to ask questions is the key.

Effective Team Collaboration Made Simplesamilinnanvuo
Having a seamless collaboration environment is crucial now that work is increasingly global and outsourced to external parties. One of the benefits of virtual teams is that you can bring in new members from anywhere in the organization as required by the project.
However, you need to ensure that everyone has access to the latest version of the documents and requirements and is clear about what they are supposed to do next. That easily becomes a challenge when communication is not always face-to-face.
Team collaboration is migrating away from email into webbased collaboration solutions. Lumo Flow is one such tool and it can improve cross-team communication by centralizing documents, conversations and project activities under one user interface. We call it a social productivity tool since it comes with social networking features that helps to build trust among team members and to get questions answered quicker.
ICF’s technical experts are supporting various clients in quickly adapting different types and sizes of meetings, workshops, and conferences to virtual formats. We’re designing and facilitating collaboration sessions with localities such as Prince Edward Island and Fairfax County; converting international workshops into web- based trainings for USAID; and conducting co-creation sessions through our Spark Labs offering.
ICF supports organizations through the entire meeting process, from selecting the right platforms and tools to designing remote-friendly agendas and providing effective meeting facilitation.
Collaboration and teamwork are essential elements of a successful and thriving workplace. In today's interconnected and fast-paced world, organizations recognize the significance of fostering a collaborative culture to drive innovation, achieve goals, and adapt to changing dynamics. Collaboration and teamwork involve individuals working together towards a common objective, leveraging their diverse skills, knowledge, and perspectives to achieve collective success.
Effective collaboration and teamwork lead to improved problem-solving, enhanced creativity, increased productivity, and stronger relationships within teams. When individuals collaborate, they pool their strengths and resources, enabling them to tackle complex challenges that may be beyond the capabilities of any one person.
Leaders play a pivotal role in fostering collaboration and teamwork within their teams. This presentation talks about the importance of promoting a culture that encourages cooperation and knowledge-sharing, breaking down silos and facilitating seamless communication across departments or functions, and suggests ways for creating opportunities for cross-functional collaboration and team-building activities to promote a shared vision.

Concrete wind towers: a low-tech innovation for a high-tech sectorRomeu Gaspar

Plano de Acção para Energia Sustentável de ÁguedaRomeu Gaspar
O presente documento identifica, caracteriza e quantifica as acções de redução de emissões de carbono que permitirão a Águeda responder ao Pacto de Autarcas.
O Concelho de Águeda, situado na região centro litoral de Portugal, tem uma área de cerca de 335 km2 e uma população de 50.000 habitantes. É um concelho fortemente industrializado, com um enfoque na indústria metalomecânica. Nos últimos anos o concelho tem feito um esforço para expandir e complementar a sua actividade empresarial, em particular em áreas inovadoras. É exemplo disso o cluster de tecnologia de iluminação, que reúne na região quatro das maiores empresas nacionais nesta área.
Este Plano de Acção para a Energia Sustentável (PAES) insere-se pois numa estratégia mais vasta de desenvolvimento económico, social e ambiental, devendo as suas acções também gerar benefícios económicos, atrair investimento externo e potenciar a comunicação de temas de sustentabilidade ambiental, tanto interna como externa.
O PAES inclui acções infraestruturais (i.e. que implicam alterações em infraestruturas, equipamentos ou processos) e acções comportamentais (i.e. que implicam alterações de comportamento nos munícipes, empresas e demais entidades da região), nas áreas da energia, transportes e resíduos. No total foram identificadas 20 acções (13 infraestruturais e 7 comportamentais), que se subdividem em cerca de 65 iniciativas específicas para cada um dos sectores do concelho (Doméstico, Agricultura, Indústria, Serviços e Município).
Cerca de 30% destas iniciativas já estão, em parte ou na sua totalidade, em fase de implementação, e serão expandidas e complementadas com as restantes iniciativas durante o período 2011-2020.
No total, o PAES permitirá uma redução de 33% das emissões do concelho até 2020, face ao ano de referência (2002). Associadas a estes benefícios ambientais, as medidas resultarão também poupança de custos de cerca de 8 milhões de Euros por ano para os munícipes, empresas e autarquia.
O investimento necessário para colocar em prática estas acções é de cerca de 3,3 milhões de Euros por ano, mas a maior parte deste valor poderá ser suportado por financiamento externo (incentivos públicos, financiamento bancário, modelos ESE e transacção de certificados brancos e créditos de carbono), reduzindo-se o montante suportado pelos munícipes, empresas e autarquia para 1,2 milhões de Euros por ano.
Manual de Boas Práticas em Eco-eficiência para EmpresasRomeu Gaspar
A ecoeficiência foi um termo introduzido pelo World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) em 1992, originalmente utilizado para descrever a minimização do impacto ambiental na produção de bens e serviços. Este termo foi adoptado para a elaboração deste Manual de Boas Práti- cas para Empresas Ecoeficientes, que tem como objectivo divulgar boas práticas junto das empresas que lhes permitam obter benefícios ambientais e económicos.
Manual de Boas Práticas em Eco-eficiência para FamíliasRomeu Gaspar
Este manual pretende apresentar algumas medidas para que todos possamos contribuir para um desenvolvimento sustentável, ajudando a utilizar a energia de uma forma eficiente e a um consumo mais racional. Adoptando estas medidas estará não só a reduzir as suas emissões mas também a poupar na sua factura.
Tackle climate change with tried and true persuasion techniquesRomeu Gaspar
The greater good is a worthy motive to address climate change, but it’s not a particularly effective persuasion technique. Routine, reward and social proof work far better.
X & Y: saving the environment & the economyRomeu Gaspar
In these dire economic times, organizations across Europe are postponing environmental goals. They shouldn’t: this is one of those areas where you can have the cake and eat it too.
Yes, but probably not just yet. The latest iterations of the venerable internal combustion engine are still competitive, both from an environmental and an economical standpoint.

Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.
