...3) What general obstacles would you foresee in a company such as Ivanovskaya Manufactura trying to make the transition from a hierarchical, or bureaucratic, to a learning organization? What are some general measures managers can take to smooth the way? The main benefits are; * Maintaining levels of innovation and remaining competitive[9] * Being better placed to respond to external pressures[9] * Having the knowledge to better link resources to customer needs[1] * Improving quality of outputs at all levels[1] * Improving Corporate image by becoming more people oriented[1] Increasing the pace of change within the organization[1] However there are of course some obstacles that the company will have to tackle in order to successfully transition from a hierarcgial to a learning organization, such as Even within or without learning organization, problems can stall the process of learning or cause it to regress. Most of them arise from an organization not fully embracing all the necessary facets. Once these problems can be identified, work can begin on improving them. Some organizations find it hard to embrace personal mastery because as a concept it is intangible and the benefits cannot be quantified;,[3] personal mastery can even be seen as a threat to the organization. This threat can be real, as Senge[3] points out, that “to empower people in an unaligned organization can be counterproductive”. In other words, if individuals do not engage with...

...00 | 1 | 630.00 | | Grand Total | | | 1125.60 | | Question 2 Question 3 How to replace the CMOS battery Issue: How to replace the CMOS battery. Cause: Like any battery the computer CMOS battery can fail or lose its charge. Solution: If your computer is losing its time or date settings, or you are receiving a message CMOS Read Error, CMOS checksum error, or CMOS Battery Failure, first attempt to leave the computer on for 24 hours. In some cases this can charge the battery and resolve your issue. This often resolves CMOS battery related issues when a computer has been left off for several months. If this does not resolve your issue follow the below steps. (1) Write down all system settings * Ensure that the information within your CMOS, if not already lost, is written down. If you're getting a CMOS error message or your time is not being saved your settings are already lost. Getting into the CMOS setup can be found on document CH000192. (2) Locate your CMOS battery * Open the computer case and find the battery on the computer motherboard, verify that it will be accessible and that it can be removed. Most computers today use a coin cell CMOS battery as shown in the image to the right. * If you are unable to locate your CMOS battery you will need to refer to your motherboard or computer documentation and/or contact your computer manufacturer for additional assistance in locating it. (3) Obtain battery information * Unfortunately, most manufacturers...

...add 0.05 M NaOH drop-by-drop to back-titrate the solution until the pH is neutral. What this means is that, the stronger the antacid tablet, the less NaOH it will take to help bring the acid to neutral. (In other words, the stronger antacid tablets counteract more of the original HCl, leaving the solution closer to neutral before the NaOH is added.) Here are your results: Maalox Mass of one dose antacid mL NaOH used in backtitration 20.0 g Tums 21.0 g Mylanta 18.0 g CVS brand 18.3 g Rennies 17.5 g 24.1 mL 22.4 mL 20.0 mL 19.9 mL 24.4 mL 1.

...Removing Malware: Tools and Techniques Devan A. Dunham American Military University, ISSC342, Instructor Peter Mylonakos In the digital world, there are many tools and techniques to harm your computer, but there are also the same for protecting your computer as well. Malware, or malicious software, is software that is intended to damage or disable computers and computer systems. It is very dynamic and can be hard to detect sometimes because it may disguise itself as something that should be running on your computer. For example, after installing a program, Jim doesn’t realize that the executable file he downloaded was infected with malware named “Wajam” but disguised itself as “Software Updater” under Control Panel. It ran in the background and updated itself automatically without Jim’s knowledge. So how would Jim detect and remove this virus? First, Jim should always be aware what is running on his computer. On Windows machines specifically, opening the Task Manager and taking a quick look at processes will give the user a good outlook on what is running on the computer. Users should look for anything suspicious or unknown processes and do further research upon discovering them. Another simplified way to discover malware is to use an anti-virus program. There are many available to users and doing a quick internet search will yield thousands of programs, but sticking with reputable programs will serve its purposes. Scanning for malware and other viruses is as simple as click...
