...It is during this step that the coach helps the individual determine how to overcome barriers to development and how to implement an effective plan to improve the leader’s overall performance. The coach helps the individual identify potential sources of support for implementing an action plan. - Develop Action Plans and Commitment: The coach and the individual develop an action plan defining actions that can improve performance within a given period. The coach utilizes a developmental action guide to communicate those self-directed activities the individual can accomplish to improve their performance in a particular competency. - Follow-Up: After the initial coaching session, there should be a follow-up as part of a larger transition. After the initial coaching, participants should provide feedback concerning the effectiveness of the assessment, the usefulness of the information they received, and progress. Leaders who coach provide frequent informal feedback and timely, proactive, formal counseling to regularly inspire and improve...

...Reflective Leadership Plan Yvonne Alaniz-Moreau University of Phoenix – School of Advanced Studies Reflective Leadership Plan Leadership is defined as “1) the office or position of a leader; 2) the capacity to lead, 3) the act or an instance of leading” (Merriam-Webster, nd). I have often wondered if I have what it takes to be a good leader. Even as a child and young adult, I can remember always wanting to be in charge, always trying to tell someone how to do things and find new ways to improve a process or situation. I think I was destined to be a leader but lately I find that I question myself as to what that actually means, to be a leader. When I first considered earning my doctorate, I questioned my purpose for doing so. I was not really interested in teaching. A part of me felt the need to accomplish this goal to prove to myself that I could do it. But what I have discovered is that I want to share with others the knowledge I have gained, I want to encourage people to be and do their best, and to believe they can achieve whatever they want. I want to be supportive in my role as a leader and instill passion in what others do. In order to be this type of leader I knew it would be necessary to earn my doctorate. This reflective leadership plan will serve as a guide throughout my pursuit of my Doctorate in Business Administration. Leadership Theories Each person defines leadership in a way that best suits them to accomplish the goals and plans set forth...

...CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR VARANASI (JNNURM) Municipal Corporation, Varanasi Final Report, August 2006 City Development Plan for Varanasi Executive Summary 1.0 Introduction Urban centres have a vital role in India’s socio-economic transformation and change. Urban centres account for 30% of the total populace, notwithstanding, most cities and towns are severely stressed in terms of infrastructure and service availability, and their growth and development is constrained by indifferent implementation of the 74th Constitution Amendment Act (CAA), 1992. The Government of India launched the JNNURM in December 2005. The Mission aims at encouraging cities initiate steps to bring about improvement in the existing service levels in a financially sustainable manner. The ever-increasing number of slum dwellers causes tremendous pressure on urban basic services and infrastructure. In order to cope up with massive problems that have emerged as a result of rapid urban growth, it is imperative to draw up a coherent urbanisation vision and strategy for implementation of projects aimed towards achieving the outlined vision. The aim of the Mission is to encourage reforms driven, fast track, planned development of identified cities with focus on efficiency in urban infrastructure and service delivery mechanisms, community participation, and accountability of Urban Local Bodies (ULB)/ parastatal agencies towards citizens. The JNNURM consists of two sub-missions – The...

...1) What did I learn? What was new to me? Was there something that changed my views and why? Focus on and analyze the themes important to you. Based on RA 7160 otherwise known as the Local Government Code of 199, I have learned that the Local Government Units (LGUs) are mandated to prepare only two comprehensive plans: the CLUP and the CDP. And yet, the LGU were required by other agencies, like NGAs, to prepare various plans which causes a lot of confusion on its part and some were not complied due to various aspects and components to be considered. This maybe because NGAs failed to consult first the LGUs if this plan can be carried out, does the LGU have a budget for this, is this applicable, this should be the priority of the LGU for its inhabitants. The process therefore should be changed. LGU has its autonomy governing over its territory, the other agencies, like NGA, therefore, must respect LGUs power over its inhabitants. The role of the NGA must only be a consultative body. The LGU must then continue to proposed or present priority or special programs and projects to the NGAs which is for the development of its inhabitants as a whole. The NGAs then shall allocate budget, aside from the IRA of the LGU, for those special programs/project. At first, my perception to some LGUs who do not have yet its CLUP and have not yet done preparing its CLUP is that they are incompetent and not law abiding citizen considering that it is mandated and required by Law. But as we go further...

...Semester Two Journal and Study Guide CISCO SYSTEMS NETWORKING Academy CCNA 2 Chapter 1 WANs and Routers One major characteristic of a wide-area network (WAN) is that the network operates beyond the local LAN's geographic scope. It uses the services of carriers, such as regional Bell operating companies (RBOCs), Sprint, and MCI. WANs use serial connections of various types to access bandwidth over wide-area geographies. By definition, the WAN connects devices that are separated by wide areas. WAN devices include the following: • • • • • • Routers, which offer many services, including internetworking and WAN interface ports Switches, which connect to WAN bandwidth for voice, data, and video communication Modems, which interface voice-grade services and channel service units/digital service units Channel service units/data service units (CSUs/DSUs) that interface T1/E1 services and Terminal Adapters/Network Termination 1 (TA/NT1s) TA/NT1s that interface Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) services Communication servers, which concentrate on dial-in and dial-out user communication Concept Questions 1. A WAN is used to interconnect local-area networks (LANs) that are typically separated by a large geographic area. A WAN operates at the OSI reference model physical and data link layers. The WAN provides for the exchange of data packets/frames between routers/bridges and the LANs that they support. Draw a WAN that includes three LANs. 1 of 116 CCNA 2 Chapter 1 WANs and...

If the 19th century was the agricultural century, and the 20th century was the century of manufacturing, then the 21st century is surely the communications century. Hundreds of millions of people are being pulled from poverty around the world – in particular in China and India. As we pass this milestone of fundamental human development we can turn to higher aspirations and goals beyond basic human needs and enrich our society through development of Information Technology. This will deliver increasing luxury in entertainment, education, information and communications. The physical goods industries lay the foundations of our modern economy; now Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and cloud computing can help enable the full flowering of human potential. A large percentage of global GDP is reliant on ICT – this is a critical issue as we strive to decouple economic growth from emissions growth...

...Michael Bearcroft Week 4 Lab 2 Part 1 Introduction The LAN-to-WAN Domain provides Internet access for the entire organization and acts as the entry/exit point for the wide area network (WAN). This domain is where all data travels into and out of the IT infrastructure. There are many threats and risks here, as the attack could come from inside the network or it could be trying to get into the network. Threats With this domain as the buffer between two other domains it gets the majority of the traffic through it. Some of the treats, risks, and vulnerabilities are as follows. Threats from people, this could be misconfigured equipment, equipment not being used correctly, unauthorized use, use of personally owned software/hardware. There are also viruses, Trojans, and network worms that can inflict damage on the network. Some of the physical threats are fire, water, electrical disturbances, and hardware failures. Mitigation Here is some of the ways in which the threats to the domain can be mitigated. Security training for the employees, so they will know what to do in specific scenarios. Security training is mandated by the Computer Security Act of 1987, so it’s not just a good idea but a requirement. Strict personnel screening by the HR department will also screen out any personnel that could cause issues in the future. User Identification and authentication is another way to keep the LAN – to – WAN domain safe. Another important safeguard is encryption, if the information...

... At the same time, the project manager must make the stakeholder understand the consequences of his or her request. A number of respondents also advocated walking the stakeholder through the change management process, negotiating with the stakeholder and bringing in other stakeholders who agree with your position. Listen Carefully; Show Respect and Empathy Of course, communication includes listening as well as speaking, and listening is especially important when having to communicate “no.” Viviane De Paula of São Paulo, Brazil, who has eight years of project management experience in telecommunications, says it is important to “listen carefully to what the stakeholder is asking and show respect and empathy.” “I personally tend to imagine if I am on the receiving end how I would take the news and refine my message so the issue can really be addressed,” notes Jason Ng, an 11-year IT project management veteran based in Hong Kong, China. A book on “the art of arguing,” written in Portuguese, touched on several important elements relating to this type of discussion, including defining a common language between you and the stakeholder,...
