...Results SuccessFactors Healthcare Executive Summary Nursing turnover is a major issue impacting the performance and profitability of healthcare organizations. Healthcare organizations require a stable, highly trained and fully engaged nursing staff to provide effective levels of patient care. The financial cost of losing a single nurse has been calculated to equal about twice the nurse’s annual salaryi. The average hospital is estimated to lose about $300,000 per year for each percentage increase in annual nurse turnoverii. Losing these critical employees negatively impacts the bottom line of healthcare organizations in a variety of ways including: Decreased quality of patient care Increased contingent staff costs Increased staffing costs Loss of patients Increased nurse and medical staff turnover Increased accident and absenteeism rates The primary causes of nurse turnover can be analyzed by I) understanding why nurses choose to work for an organization and ensuring this ‘employee value proposition’ is met; and II) identifying things that occur after nurses are hired that lead them to quit even though their initial job expectations were met. I. Primary factors that influence nurses’ choice of employers are work schedules, career development opportunities, and commuting distanceiii. However the relative importance of these factors varies widely across nurses. There is no “one size fits all” ideal job design and healthcare organizations that wish...

...Almost everyday there are stories covering Google's new projects or the evolution of it's many products. With so many initiatives it can be hard to step back and look at where the web behemoth is really heading. What does success in five years look like? Back in 2009, Eric Schmidt denied the existence of any formal five year plan, but with Larry back in the drivers seat it's not hard to imagine him sitting cross legged at Burning Man, chatting to Serge about how everything fits together. Based on some of the recent acquisitions, new developments and the evolution of their current products, the plan probably goes something like this: 1: Become our primary interface to the world As we scurry about each day, connecting, creating and discovering, we use a bunch of tools to make our lives better. These tools have changed over the years, but they are very much a part of who we are. Google's strategy here is about becoming the ultimate life tool, the primary lense between you and everything else. There is a beauty and power in connecting all the things we use to shape our world, and naturally its also a little scary. Within five years Google will provide you the option to live almost your entire day through it's interface, a strategy that will tighten their hold on search while also opening up new revenue models. A device gently wakes you in the optimal sleep pattern, you run on a Google Glass enabled treadmill, a self driving car will take you to work where your spend you day using...

Muscle jobs are disappearing, finger and brain jobs are growing or, to put it more formally, labor-based industries have been displaced by skill-based industries and these in turn will have to be replaced by knowledge-based industries.” -Charles Handy (1984) Though Charles Handy tracked these radical changes long back in 1984, these touched India very recently.

...helping them live longer and fuller lives. They provide their customers with answers that matter—life saving and enhancing medicines. They carry out this mission by discovering, developing, and marketing pharmaceutical therapies. Many of the pharmaceutical products Lilly brings to market are first-in-class, providing customers a therapeutic relief that did not exist. An example of this is their newly FDA-cleared drug, Xigris™, which helps thousands of people every day by treating the potentially fatal condition of sepsis. The Lilly research team persevered over two decades to bring Xigris™ to fruition, even when over ten other companies failed to produce a viable drug remedy for sepsis (Eli Lilly Annual Report 2001). This dedication truly exemplifies Lilly’s commitment to their customers and transcends into all their efforts. Eli Lilly continues to be a successful pharmaceutical company, while other pharmaceutical companies have seen their success erode, because of the strategies they employ. Lilly has focused on building partnerships rather than acquisitions and continually reinvests the highest percentage of their sales revenue into research and development. Both of these actions allow them to expand their reach in research and development providing them with one of the strongest pipelines in the industry. These investments benefit their customers and provide value for their stakeholders. While many people may believe that...

Eleven years later Abbott has sustained that high level of performance as a producer in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. This performance can be attributed to their consistent financial growth over its competitors. The company competes among the healthcare industry producing pharmaceuticals, medical devices and nutritional products. Abbott is among several large companies that have dominated the industry for about half a century. Abbott has experienced a consistent increase in revenue over the past five years. Due to recent acquisitions, the company has had increasing operating costs, but stable profits. Notable financial risks of the company are their smaller product pipeline and smaller cash cushion compared to competitors. Abbott Labs marketing branch is what brings...

...I HISTORY OF ITALY History The migrations of Indo-European peoples into Italy probably began about 2000 B.C. and continued until 1000 B.C. From about the 9th century B.C. until it was overthrown by the Romans in the 3rd century B.C. , the Etruscan civilization was dominant. By 264 B.C. , all Italy south of Cisalpine Gaul was under the leadership of Rome. For the next seven centuries, until the barbarian invasions destroyed the western Roman Empire in the 4th and 5th centuries A.D. , the history of Italy is largely the history of Rome. From 800 on, the Holy Roman Emperors, Roman Catholic popes, Normans, and Saracens all vied for control over various segments of the Italian peninsula. Numerous city-states, such as Venice and Genoa, whose political and commercial rivalries were intense, and many small principalities flourished in the late Middle Ages. Although Italy remained politically fragmented for centuries, it became the cultural center of the Western world from the 13th to the 16th century. Etymology The assumptions on the etymology of the name "Italia" are very numerous and the corpus of the solutions proposed by historians and linguists is very wide. According to one of the more common explanations, the term Italia, from Latin: Italia, was borrowed through Greek from the Oscan Víteliú, meaning "land of young cattle" (cf. Lat vitulus "calf", Umbvitlo "calf").The bull was a symbol of the southern Italic tribes and was often depicted goring the Roman wolf as a defiant symbol...
