...The session was a follow-up from the session entitled “The Fork in the Road – Connect & Discover”. The aim was to gain commitment from the prospective students by creating urgency. The following areas were covered: - Why should urgency be created? - How should urgency be created? - Component(s) of urgency ALWAYS get the prospective student to see what is in it for them (WIIFT) by constant reference to their “MOTIVATION”, for example, use phrases like ….. “Remember when you told me earlier that……..” Why should urgency be created? Approximately six reasons were outlined as to why urgency should be created. All of them pointed centrally to the fact that urgency needs to be created so that the prospective students can realize that the decision they are making now can/will make a difference in their lives. How should urgency be created? A number of ways to create urgency were outlined – beginning with the fact that we must, as AAs , be confident in the fact that we are the experts and as such we should sound like experts; so much so, that when the prospective students hear us talk, they will believe what we say and begin to trust us. We should build rapport, ensuring at all times that that our voice inflections reflect enthusiasm and excitement. By the end of the interview the prospective student must want more, because of the re-assurance they have received that KU is a good fit for him/her. Component(s) of urgency. - The bottom...

To have an amplifier, R is connected between the input signal and the inverting pin. The negative sign in the formula for the closed loop gain means that the input signal and the ouput signal are 180 out of phase, meaning that +inputs produce-output and vice versa.

...Executive Summary Schneider Electronic, in its global account management (GAM) development, has got a new client, Calchem, and is preparing for the first account manager workshop. Some management issues have been exposed regarding not only the relationship between Schneider and Calchem but also the effectiveness of Schneider’s communication network and the cooperation from its subsidiaries. This report aims to analyse the challenges Schneider is facing in depth with the focus on cultural differences to figure out the solutions for this company to promote system of global account management, to gain support from local subsidies and to build the reliable long term relationship with new clients. The report identifies the challenges Schneider is facing at current. Firstly, the internal communication channel across organizations, relationships between subsidiaries and head quarters (HQ) and customer relations is considered as the core issues. Due to the matrix structure and the larger number of cultures involved in the net work communication, effective information feeding and sharing is difficult to be achieved. Secondly, different cultural orientations of different subsidiaries have made the goal of GAM hard to be gained. This is presented by the resistance to develop GAM in some subsidiaries and the reluctance to attend workshop. Furthermore, different cultural orientations of the clients raise different interpretation of Schneider Electric’s actions bringing misassumption...

...There are five phases that a hacker will go thru when trying to attack your system. Each one is different and requires different ways to limit the hacker’s ability to gain information about your system. The first phase is reconnaissance, this can be passive or active. One of the things that a hacker might try is social engineering to gain information on the system. The best way to combat this, is by training and more training of the employees on the various ways that a hacker will attempt to get information. There is also dumpster diving, the only way to combat this is to make sure that the information that is being of disposed is of such a nature that it is useless to them. Information that they could use to gain access to the system, should be destroyed in such a way that it cannot be reconstructed in any way. Also a hacker could try sniffing the network, this is where system hardening will assist in preventing the hacker from gaining information. The second phase is scanning, in this phase the hacker will try to scan the network to see what information he can obtain to assist him in determining what weakness exist. This scanning he can find out such information as to what type of OS is being used, the version of the OS, and many other things about the network. To help prevent him from getting this information, system hardening is the best defense. This will include but not limited to disabling all ports but those that are needed, turning off certain ICMP features which...

...“Class A Power Amplifiers” ITT Technical Institute• 3rd Quarter/December2014 •3-6-2015 Introduction The common-emitter (CE) amplifier provides high voltage gain with moderate input resistance whereas the common collector (CC) amplifier provides current gain and low output resistance. Combining the two amplifiers gives the advantages of each, allowing the amplifier to drive a relatively low resistance load such as a speaker. In all amplifiers, some power from the supply is wasted – that is, it does not show up as signal power in the load. In class A power amplifiers, the transistor is biased on at all times, causing power to be dissipated in the transistor, even when no signal is present. Because of this, class A amplifiers are not as efficient as class B designs. For low power applications, this reduced efficiency is not a major problem. Further, the power dissipated in the transistor is highest when no signal is present, so it is simple to compute the worst case power dissipated in the transistor − it is simply VCEQICQ. In this experiment, you will combine a CE and CC amplifier to form an amplifier that will be used for driving a small speaker. Most speakers are low resistance devices, requiring the driving amplifier to have a low output resistance. Because the CE amplifier typically has relatively high output resistance, a Darlington CC amplifier is selected to minimize the loading effect. In the For Further Investigation section, you can complete the amplifier...

...1. Is there any evidence that the program pays out for Sainsbury? Elaborate. Sainsbury’s had been losing market share until partnering with Nectar and then became U.K.’s second largest supermarket chain after the first year of using the program. They also discovered weekly spending was 40% greater among people collecting points from several sponsors than only from Sainsbury’s. A study suggested that Sainsbury’s gained market share from non-Nectar retailers through gasoline sales due to the competition between BP and Sainsbury’s with Nectar. Sainsbury’s benefited from the Nectar program by: · Increasing the frequency of customer’s visits and spending more per transaction · Acquiring new customers · Retaining current customers · Up-selling to customers to buy higher margin products While Sainsbury’s was the dominant sponsor, there had been a steady decrease in its importance. In the launch month, four out of five collectors earned points from Sainsbury’s alone. Within six months, half had earned points from a second sponsor and at the anniversary 30% earned from one, 60% from two and 10% from three sponsors. Spending at Sainsbury’s was greater among collectors earning points from multiple sources than from Sainsbury’s alone. Weekly spending at Sainsbury’s was 40% greater when people collected from them and two other sponsors than from Sainsbury’s alone. It also became apparent that collectors who earned points from multiple sponsors...

...Conflict is often viewed in a negative light, it can actually be beneficial. One of the benefits: conflict can often provide opportunities for growth. This is because it develops insight into our feelings when we exchange them with others. 2. What are the orientations to conflict? Which do you tend to use most often? (If you do not know, take the quick Quiz on p. 250 of the text.) The orientations to conflict are: Lose-lose: This assumes that conflict results in losses for everyone, and that it is unhealthy and destructive for relationships. Win-lose: This assumes that one person wins at the expense of the other. Win-win: This assumes that there are usually ways to resolve differences to that everyone gains. I tend to use win win. I like to find a way that everyone can gain from a situation....

...The Fruits of Legitimacy:Why Some New Ventures Gain More from Innovation Than Others Summary: New Ventures play a vital role in the development of any company.In addition,the actions of new ventures may even spur large, incumbent firms into action, thus accelerating the pace of technological change.The new ventures success depend upon their ability to produce new products.Sometimes even amongst the ventures producing the same good they have different fates.One of the difficulties faced by the new ventures is the liability of being new to the business. Potential stakeholders view firms in these industries with skepticism. An important way that new ventures can overcome the liability of newness and increase their gains from new products is by taking actions that provide them with legitimacy in the eyes of stakeholders. new ventures can gain legitimacy by creating associations with more established entities, either external or internal to the firm. Article Review: This article is written by Raghunath Singh Rao, Rajesh K. Chandy, & Jaideep C. Prabhu.In this study, the role of a variety of legitimizing actions have been highlighted and empirically tested. In order to legitimize the new ventures in the eyes of the stakeholders different actions can to undertaken.It has also been shown that these legitimizing actions may not always work together. Among internal means of gaining legitimacy, four types of actions has been proposed: historical, scientific, market, and locational...

...Education and information are a source of power to each and every human being who looks for a better educational and social future. For that reason, it is always important for any student to keep in his\ her mind the essential steps and concepts that will lead to a successful graduation. This essay will shed the light on three concepts that will help students to start and complete their studies, and they are: setting goals and listing tasks, assessments, and plagiarism. Starting with setting goals and listing tasks, it is known that having goals set up helps students to focus on their main work and organize their plans in accordance with the suitable time limits. Yet, goals will turn into dreams if students do not follow and accomplish them step by step. For example, if a student’s main goal is to get a master in any subject, he\ she should list the needed tasks and homework for each lesson and get them done. By doing this, he\ she will start to accomplish the small goals, like passing the courses’ tests, then moving to the other. Secondly, assessments of writing assignments tend to demonstrate the differences between what students produced and what the supervisor desired. It also approves for the students that they are in the right track accordingly with their goals. For example, after they finish the first lesson, they should ask themselves if they understand it or not and so if they can move to the second lesson or not. In short, doing the required assignment is a question...
