Biden’s New Multicolored Cabinet
Tags: Immigrants, Joe Biden, Diversity, Politics

There it is. Resplendent with possibility. The Cabinet members to be entrusted with carrying out the business of the nation. And for the first time ever, it will be made up of people representing the vastness of our population.

The selection process is not complete and we already have in place Hispanic Americans, African Americans, East Asian Americans, Native Americans with more to come. And it is to be a cabinet with a balance of men and women reflecting who we are. A cabinet that implicitly accepts that nature is very democratic in assigning ability even as human prejudice repeatedly attempts to thwart the process.

Joe Biden is staying true to his promise to govern the nation with all of the nation, not just White Americans.

These appointees are all men and women of merit who would not have had a chance to rise had it not been for Biden’s commitment to diversity.

He got elected because he appealed to that diversity, the many sections of the nation that had been bypassed because of the color of their skin.

Now they have a chance to shine and they will.

And what an example to the world.

At a time when nationalist movements rage against the influx of immigrants, Joe Biden is saying, ‘yes, we are a nation of immigrants and we will remain a nation of immigrants.’

Biden is saying it loudly, confident that his choices will deliver for him and for America.

Those talents were always there but owing to a sense of entitlement by the White majority, those talents were blocked, relegated or ignored.

In business, in the sciences, in entrepreneurship and the many other walks of life, diverse Americans as well as immigrants of color from all over the world were blossoming and enriching the nation that welcomed them. But the dominant majority would not let them have access to help guide the nation.

Now the time has come.

If sections of White America are resentful that they have been held back, then they have to examine themselves to see why it is that it happened while their own kind were in power.

And so in other nations across the world now confronting the rise of nationalism who choose to attempt to block the contributions of immigrants, i.e. Britain, Poland, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands.

Joe Biden’s cabinet will be a transformational cabinet, because of his inclusiveness.

And he will not be disappointed. The men and women of diverse origins will not let him down.

They will strive to shine just as Barack Obama did when he was chosen as the first African American head of state.

This multicolored cabinet will have far reaching consequences and so become a formidable catalyst for human powers eager to contribute to this great land.

Newest Mindgasms Quickie about how regardless of whether Donald Trump or Joe Biden becomes the President, the world will not be destroyed! We will survive. Things will be okay. There is a lot of political division in the world right now, amplified by social media. Many Biden supporters seem to think that Trump will destroy American democracy if re-elected, even though whether he did so during his first term is debatable. A lot of Trump supporters seemed to have similar views about what will occur if Biden becomes the president. They appear to believe that Biden will destroy American democracy, prosecute and harm Conservatives, and turn the country into a socialist state. In my opinion, both candidates are awful. However, regardless of who is elected, the world will survive. BIden would likely be a standard politician. He has done and will do copious bad things, but also some good things. The same applies to Trump. He is perhaps worse than Biden, but Biden is still awful. Yet, neither even WANTS to destroy America and/or the world, in spite of Biden’s record and Trump’s ego:

He and the Canadian evolutionary psychologist, Gad Saad, discussed how they completely disagree with the social stigmas against masterbation and porn. The former is a natural bodily function that EVERYONE should do, and so is sex. So, pornstars should not be looked down upon just because they’re sex workers:

Adopting US Energy Initiatives for a Cleaner Future
By: Mark-Anthony Goncalves
Tags: Green Energy, US Elections, Paris Agreement, Climate Change, Joe Biden

Following president elect Joe Biden’s election victory, many global leaders have identified and begun considering his strategies and movement to turn the United States (US) into a more sustainable green economy. Such strategies include significant and vast experience that Biden managed to gain over his 50 years politics as politician and should not go unnoticed.

Numerous countries including South Africa signed an initial Paris Agreement in December 2015, which allows for international governments and cities to put their best efforts forward in a global attempt to reduce harmful gas emissions and tackle climate change. Unfortunately, to date only (16) out of 194 countries (8.2%) celebrating the agreement’s fifth year anniversary, have managed to meet their commitments to address climate change.

Noticeably, the Covid-19 pandemic has exposed the large impact that climate change has on both our health and living environments, especially in poorer areas. Evidently, parallel action needs to be taken to curb climate change that is prevalent to the distribution of future diseases. One can only ponder if not now, then when?

New research shows that up to 132 million people will be pushed into extreme poverty by climate change by 2030. – World Bank

According to Forbes (2019), approximately 3.3 million individuals work in the clean energy sector, outnumbering the jobs occupying the fossil fuel industry by 3-1. It is therefore logical that Biden’s intention to reinstate the US and rejoin the Paris Agreement following a global pandemic should positively cater for further job creation.

President Donald Trump has already fast-tracked numerous fossil fuel projects, which could jeopardize Biden’s ambitions to fully transition to a green economy by 2035. Large industries and the US military could still rely heavily on completed fossil fuel projects for years to come.

President elect Joe Biden’s sustainability efforts and green economy policies are to be commended and should be adopted sooner, rather than later. Investing in Clean Energy Technologies (CET) remains a priority for Joe Biden and the world. CET will create stable-paying jobs in industries such as solar, wind, water, and battery storage. CET could potentially encourage companies to invest in their employees and recoup the major job losses experienced over the last year.

An unpopular opinion remains that countries around the world should begin adopting similar US initiatives in order to accelerate new technologies and innovation that will sustain a global green economy. Optimistically, as renewable prices continue to plummet, making it cheaper to build new technologies, developing countries such as South Africa could follow in the US footsteps very soon.
Deb Haaland Is Going to Make Our Ancestors So Proud

After four years of fossil fuel executives and lobbyists opening up Native lands and sacred sites to industry tycoons, the next Secretary of Interior will be Rep. Deb Haaland, a Laguna Pueblo woman who went to Standing Rock in 2016 and cooked for the people.

She is going to make our ancestors so proud.

If you’re half as joyful as I am right now, add your name today to thank President-elect Biden for this historic appointment and for doing something so undoubtedly right.

Haaland will oversee the federal government’s nation-to-nation relationship with the 574 federally recognized American Indian and Alaska Native tribal communities and be the first-ever Native Cabinet Secretary in the nation’s history.

I am thankful to all those who have been pushing for this appointment alongside me — it took many leaders and a small army — and to Joe Biden for hearing us.

With this appointment, the President-elect has taken a modest but meaningful step toward justice for First peoples. He is continuing to set a tone for restoring a sense of public good and public trust to America, and that is worth celebrating.

Add your name today to thank the president-elect for making history.

With gratitude to the countless people from across Indian Country, the environmental movement, and the political spectrum,

US Electoral College Confirms Joe Biden as Next President
By: Vic Alcuaz
Tags: Leadership, Catholic, USA, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris

Vatican News reports

The United States Electoral College confirms Joe Biden as the next president, and the president-elect says it is time to “turn the page”.

America’s 538 presidential electors cast their ballots on Monday, officially confirming Joe Biden as the next President of the United States.

The Electoral College ratified his 3 November victory over Donald Trump with a majority of 306 to 232.

Mr. Biden will be sworn in as president on 20 January.

Electoral system

Under the US presidential election system, Americans cast ballots for “electors”, which are apportioned to each state according to population.

Members of the Electoral College then vote for candidates after the election.

Those ballots will now be sent to Washington DC to be formally counted at a joint session of Congress on 6 January.

At that point, the formal election of Joe Biden as president will be completed.

President-elect Biden also won the popular vote by over 7 million ballots, in an election with the highest voter turnout in 120 years.

Victory speech

Later Monday evening, Mr. Biden urged the nation to “turn the page”, and promised to be a president for all Americans.

“Once again in America, the rule of law, our Constitution, and the will of the people have prevailed,” he said. “Our democracy — pushed, tested, threatened — proved to be resilient, true, and strong.”

President-elect Biden said the Covid-19 presents an urgent challenge: “Getting this pandemic under control and getting the nation vaccinated against this virus.”

Ongoing pandemic

Confirmation of Mr. Biden’s victory came on the same day the US Covid-19 death toll topped 300,000.

It was also the day 150 hospitals across the country received their first doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, which has gotten approval for emergency use.

President-elect Biden has set a goal of 100 million Covid vaccinations in his first 100 days in office.

The Border Wall
By: S M Chen
Tags: Trump, Border Wall, Immigration, USA, Joe Biden

One of the things Donald Trump, soon to be ex-POTUS, campaigned for in 2016 was a ‘big, beautiful’ wall along the southern border of the USA to keep out immigrants, whom he termed ‘rapists and criminals.’ In this he labeled the majority with the odious opprobrium of the minority. Trump is not known for caring about accuracy or the truth, however. Had he, the Presidential election might have turned out differently.

He assured Americans Mexico would pay for the wall (this despite protestations from the President of Mexico to the contrary, that no such thing would occur on his watch).

In fact, the approximate $15B cost of the wall has been siphoned by the POTUS from other projects. That part of his pledge was conveniently ignored.
Take a minute

Tags: Hidden Brain, Covington Catholic, Outrage, Joe Biden

I was recently listening to an episode of the Hidden Brain podcast titled “Screaming into the Void”, which dug into why people get so outraged about everything (and then others get outraged about the initial outrage, and on it goes).

You can listen to it here if you’d like; it’s a great episode!

Covington Catholic

One of the main stories they covered was the mess with Covington Catholic, and the levels of outrage around that. You had the initial outrage against the students until the full video came out, which found that the initial outrage was misplaced… which led to more outrage. If you don’t remember that story, this image may do the trick.

While the story itself involves a lot of nuance, the story about the story is that people were so eager to jump in with their outrage and try to get attention on social media that they didn’t wait long enough to see the truth.

Joe Biden forgot the pledge

I saw a similar story recently where Joe Biden apparently forgot the words to the Pledge of Allegiance. Here is the clip that went around virally:

https://twitter.com/SteveGuest/status/1308134517081886720

It looks like he indeed messed up the words until you see it in context. If you watch the full speech (start around the 23:40 mark if you want to jump ahead), you’ll see that the initial outrage was misplaced and his word choice seemed intentional. The early outrage was based on bad info.

Engagement != Change

The podcast does a good job of explaining why outrage is so popular, but also the pitfalls of it. In short, outrage will generally lead to more engagement on social media, but it almost never leads to real change. It can lead to change in some cases, but typically it’s fruitless.

The big problem there is the filter bubble — most of the people that witness your outrage are people that already agree with you. Any dissenting voice is seen as either uneducated or “crazy”, and even further information (like in the examples above) make it difficult for many people to see the other side and change their opinion of the event in question.

In most cases, waiting a little while to collect more information is a wise thing to do. Even things that are “super obvious”, as both of those situations appeared initially, may be wrong.

If time allows, here is that full podcast episode to listen to.

In the meantime take a breath, dig deeper, find the truth, and then (if necessary) direct your outrage in a productive manner.
Joe Biden decision on Israel and Palestine
By: Lucas Bakker
Tags: Israel, Palestine, Joe Biden, Trump

One of the maximum pressing overseas coverage duties going through Joe Biden is repairing the extreme harm President Donald Trump has inflicted on U.S. coverage toward Israel, and particularly the Palestinians. Despite the developing impression, withinside the salons of Washington as a great deal because the palaces of the Middle East, that the Palestinian problem has end up moot, that battle has tested a continual capacity to unexpectedly reignite. Resolving it stays vital to safety and balance withinside the Middle East.

Since the quit of the Cold War, there were a bipartisan American consensus in choose of peace primarily based totally on a negotiated two-kingdom solution. Trump and numerous key aides, particularly his son-in-regulation Jared Kushner, spent the beyond 4 years seeking to ruin that consensus through helping Israeli annexation of occupied territory withinside the West Bank, correctly getting rid of the potentialities for a significant Palestinian kingdom.

Biden can draw at the normalization procedure among Israel and the UAE and Bahrain, that are predicated on Israel shelving annexation plans, at the least via the quit of 2024. That buys time to get American coverage returned in keeping with global regulation, and U.S. and Israeli treaty obligations, maximum considerably the 1993 Declaration of Principles they signed with the Palestinians.

Setting the degree for eventual renewed negotiations would require instantaneously readability that the U.S. will now no longer guide efforts through Israel to apply the Trump annexation proposal, instead of the agreed-upon 1993 framework, because the beginning point.

A go back to a traditional, optimistic stance that emphasizes multilateralism, international relations and a rules-primarily based totally order suits the mainstream of bipartisan U.S. overseas coverage

If their goal, as they insist, is to shift U.S. coverage with inside the Middle East to a balancing function primarily based totally on a strong international relations, Biden’s group can’t come up with the money for to go away Israel and the Palestinians, wherein Trump has left them.

The Israeli-Palestinian battle has an uncongenial dependancy of dramatically reasserting its international importance simply while it appears to be a ancient footnote. Ignoring it might be a big mistake.

Report: Biden To Get Coronavirus Vaccine Early Next Week
By: Stephen Michael
Tags: Covid 19, Joe Biden, Coronavirus, Covid Vaccine

Biden plans to get the shot in a public setting to ensure Americans feel getting the shot is safe.

President-elect Joe Biden is expected to receive his first coronavirus vaccination early next week, according to reports. He is planning to get the shot in a public setting to ensure Americans feel getting the shot is safe.

Earlier Wednesday night, Biden told reporters he wants to show Americans it is safe to get the vaccine.

“I don’t want to get ahead of the line, but I want to make sure we demonstrate to the American people that it is safe to take,” he said. “When I do it, I’ll do it publicly, so you can all witness my getting it done.”

Biden told CNN’s Jake Tapper earlier this month he would get the coronavirus vaccine once Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, said it was safe. Vice President-elect Kamala Harris also said she would get the vaccine.

Biden has said his administration would work to get 100 million vaccine shots in his first 100 days in office. He also pledged to sign a face mask mandate on his first day in office, asking all Americans to wear a face mask in his first 100 days in office.

Fauci said Tuesday on ABC’s “Good Morning America” that he “strongly recommends” Biden and Harris should be vaccinated “as soon as we possibly can.”

The first doses of the Pfizer and BioNTech coronavirus vaccine were authorized by the US Food and Drug Administration for emergency use last week and has been delivered to all 50 states and last week the U.K. got their first doses of the shot.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration has not yet said when or how President Donald Trump might receive a coronavirus vaccine. The White House released a statement late Wednesday saying Vice President Mike Pence will get the vaccine live on TV Friday.

The news comes as former presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama have all said they would publicly get the coronavirus vaccine.

A Christmas Letter to My Childhood Doll Mandy on the 2020 Election
By: Jennifer Gidman
Tags: Electionfraud, Mandy, Joe Biden, Election 2020

Dear Mandy doll I received one Yuletide season in the late 1970s, and whom I still yearn for in my fugue states and fever dreams:

Let any stragglers who still believe that the election was stolen, that the “storm is coming,” and that JFK Jr. walks among us disguised as a John Lennon impersonator, ready to ascend to the Oval Office at any given moment with Trump as his running mate, know this:

The election was not stolen.

Let them know Joe Biden won the election because he had more (many, many more!) Electoral College votes than Trump, who’s now lame-duck sundowning and stringing followers along with some cringeworthy “I got robbed” campaign.

Inform them that Biden won because more Americans voted for him than they did for Trump.

Mandy, tell the good people that 81 million Americans moved on the incumbent like a bitch.

Fill them in that Biden won in the same way that Trump won (to my incredible chagrin and yours, Mandy) in 2016. Well, not because of the more voters thing—but DJT did take the Electoral College, and in this country, that’s currently what it takes, also to our joint chagrin.

Mandy, because you’re an all-seeing Fisher Price muse who puts Chucky, Barbie, and that wanna-be Annabelle to shame, you know better than anyone that minor irregularities that may have existed in this election—and I say “may have,” because Tucker Carlson keeps claiming dead people voted and then has to apologize for being wrong about the dead people—were, even if true, a) not enough to make a substantial difference in this election (i.e., not widespread fraud), and b) the same basic types of irregularities that occur in *every election* and that are remedied when discovered. If anyone has credible and valid proof otherwise, I’m all ears, and I’m sure you are, too, Mandy. If that’s the case, please get in touch with Rudy Giuliani posthaste. But let it be real proof, not “evidence” spewing out from the brain salad of Seb Gorka or the Kraken lady or StrongPatriot52633. At last count, the Trump team had lost 59 of the 60 election cases it’s brought in front of the judiciary, including the Supreme Court. Claiming ACB, Brett Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch are now part of the Deep State hasn’t panned out so far. (You’re getting that straight from Mandy. I’m just the messenger.)

In the meantime, Mandy and I are now going to slide back into our copy editor’s lane—because, if you haven’t noticed, I’ve stopped addressing Mandy directly and have simply merged with Mandy to become one politically and editorially omniscient superbeing—to help out those still furiously drafting up the Constitution for a new, more perfect Union. All our differences aside, I want them to have good grammar, and I know Mandy agrees:

It’s MARTIAL law, not Marshall law.

It’s SECEDE, not succeed.

It’s SECESSION, not succession.

And finally, because this has been bugging me for years:

It’s JENN with two N’s, not one.

Mandy, on the other hand, is good with one N. That’s how she likes it. That’s how she wants it. All hail Mandy! God bless us, every one!
It’s Basically Over. And Yet It’s Just Starting.

By Lawrence Lessig

It’s all-but over. Monday, 306 officially appointed presidential electors cast electoral college votes for Joe Biden. As importantly, zero competing electors in key swing states cast votes for Donald Trump under the purported authority of their rogue state legislatures or governors. Though the President’s drumbeat of fraud continues, that means the election is essentially over. Even Mitch McConnell has recognized the victory. Democracy has prevailed.

Thank you for your support to safeguard the election. As many of you know, with your help, we produced a huge volume of op-eds, explainers, and a 10-part podcast with a deep dive into presidential selection, which were relied on by campaign insiders and the media to make sure all routes for undermining democracy were shut. And the Supreme Court case about presidential electors we brought ended with the key idea that, when it comes to presidential elections, “We the People rule.” That too shut down many avenues of democratic subversion.

But we found many holes and vulnerabilities in the system. So, as we wind the year down, can you chip in to help support our future efforts to reform the system of presidential selection? We got through 2020. But we must improve things for us, for our children, and for future generations. There are too many leaks in our dam to continue just patching things up every four years.

In the meantime: we at Equal Citizens are now ready to move on to the new key fight in democracy reform: the Georgia senate runoff elections. Make no mistake: campaign finance reform and voting reform are on the ballot there. We can’t wait to tell you more about our new campaign this week.

Thanks again for your support and for holding fast to our democracy. It mattered. And it will keep mattering.

P.S. Some people have asked about several sets of Trump electors also casting supposed “ballots” in key swing states, even without any legal authority. As I explain here, these are called “alternative slates.” As even they acknowledge, these Trump electors have no legal authority to represent their states, and their electoral votes won’t be counted absent some extraordinary court decision that somehow favors Trump in multiple states. That won’t happen. Trump’s legal challenges have all failed, and the cases are winding down, not ramping up. I wouldn’t lose any sleep over them, but it does mean that things aren’t technically all over. Only when Congress counts the votes on January 6 will Biden’s win be absolutely official.
Eyes on the Prize, Democrats. Eyes on the Prize.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez caused a stir across social media recently when she suggested that the Democratic Party needed new leadership and had failed in the important work of succession planning. While many in the party and country wish that AOC would sit quietly and wait her turn to speak, it should not be surprising that a 31-year-old member of the US Congress would look at the current party and congressional leadership and wonder, “what’s next?”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer are a combined 150 years old. When you included House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Sen. Leader Mitch McConnell, the age of this country’s congressional leadership is 283. If you are inclined to include the President-elect, Joe Biden, then the five people who are in charge of the executive and legislative branches of this country are a whopping 361 years old.

There is no thriving, cutting edge business or industry anywhere led by five people whose average age is 72 years old. Not Google, not Amazon, not Tesla, not Facebook. Yet, AOC critics rushed into the Twittersphere to blast her anyway (surprisingly in the same space that they celebrated 38-year-old Pete Buttigieg’s nomination as Transportation Secretary and circled the wagons amid questions of his experience for the post because — evidently — he is the future).

Selling Cost Guides Customer Interaction Frequency & Recurring Revenue Strategy
By: Fawn Mulholland
Tags: Customer Success, Strategy, Business Intelligence, Communication, Marketing

A really wordy title. My apologies.

Whilst writing the next chapter of my e-book, I got into a lengthy portion about understanding your customer — or at least being aware of the assumptions you are making about your customer. This will make you aware of the different interactions you might have with a customer. Similarly, you should understand the uniqueness of your own business and how that affects your ability to provide Customer Success and what it will look like. In particular focusing on your own business, product offerings and potential to retain paying customers.

I’ll use the example from my e-book to further illustrate:

“If you sell large, expensive items such as farm machinery, it is unlikely that you will continue to upsell a customer on a new machine — but you certainly could grab them with a servicing package or additional accessories for the machinery. Similarly, if you sell houses for a living, it’s unlikely you’ll sell to the same people year after year, but perhaps your reward is word-of-mouth marketing that results in additional clients and brings you commissions.”

This led me to throw together a model for your consideration. The model shows the cost of your product or service, where it lies on a consumable spectrum and the frequency of interactions suggested to fulfill your recurring revenue strategy. As with any model, this is flexible and can be tailored to suit your own needs.

You can see in the model shown below, you will likely require fewer interactions for inexpensive or consumable items or services. Contrastingly, expensive non-consumables (a house or machinery per the example above) likely require fewer interactions — and if you are planning to interact, you must make sure to make these interactions valuable for the consumer.

Expensive products require fewer sales for the same revenue as inexpensive products.

1 sale of a $100,000 home = 1,000 sales of a $100 product.

More sales require more sustained effort.

Further to this, some common strategies or considerations for securing lifelong customers are noted within the body of the graph. It’s likely that if your product is consumable, you will resell that same product. If it is expensive and not consumable — like the house — you may find your revenue or value in alternative forms such as brand champions, word of mouth marketing or participating in the long-sell. Sticking to the house example, it cannot hurt to stay in touch with your customer in case they plan to sell in the future, to gather testimonials, reviews and references. Upselling holds more of an all-encompassing spot in the model.

We would be curious to hear how your product aligns with this model. There are always exceptions, but this may be a good starting point for your organization when considering the frequency of customer communications.
Tableau vs Power BI
By: Vignesh Thulasi Dass
Tags: Data Visualization, Tableau, Business Intelligence, Power Bi, Data Analysis

In a world that treats data as the new oil, investigation and representation have become the secret weapons. There is vital competition expanding as an ever-increasing number of business tools are entering the market. To remain on top, one single tool must be intended to convey a blend of characteristics, for example, brand acknowledgment, usability, and cost. Is it true that you are considering what all devices are actually coordinating these guidelines? Allow me to get into the detail of Power BI versus Tableau

Since their commencement, the two tools have progressed significantly in Data Analytics and have become the pioneers among Business Intelligence tools. The blog draws a correlation between the two and highlights their importance in the field.

Tableau

Data-driven narrating has become the new dialect for associations. Scene produces perceptions as reasonable dashboards, reports, and worksheets. This clears route for the simple perusing of complex data with no specialized technical knowledge and draws experiences valuable for the income and development of the business.

Power BI

It is a Business Intelligence tool that allows users to extract and modify data from a multitude of sources, be it Excel files, images, videos, etc., into insightful reports and interactive dashboards. Data analysis and visualization have various techniques and methods of conveying the information in data to the users. Power BI is deployed for the cleaning and integration of complex data and identifying underlying trends and patterns to run ad-hoc queries.

Tableau vs Power BI Trend

Contrast Between Power BI and Tableau

Each venture has its own arrangement of objectives and targets set to build its income and drive its development the correct way. We will talk about some significant regions where Power BI and Tableau show significant differences in assisting associations with accomplishing their objectives. We should get into Power BI versus Tableau in different particular perspectives.

If this question was asked me i would say Business.

Do you know why?

No matter how many hours you give to a company as an employee the returns would be always unsatisfactory and there is always a limit in earning incentives.

But if you give 14 to 15 hrs in your own business the profit always be yours and u can earn as much as you can because you are the boss and all the profits would come in your pocket so business is always better option.

if you are still in doubt then try both of them 9 to 5 for job and 6 to 10 for your side hustle .

thank you if you liked it you can always hit the applaud button

This article was originally posted on October 11, 2007.

I was out of the country for a few days last week, almost totally disconnected (yes, it felt good), and almost missed the weekend announcement that is sure to have long-lasting effects on the Business Intelligence world: SAP’s acquisition of Business Objects.

Now, after Oracle has snapped up Hyperion, SAP buys Business Objects, leaving Microsoft and Cognos looking at each other like the last lonely boy and girl standing on opposite sides of the floor at a junior high dance…

Introducing our New Series: “The ABCs of AfricaMarket for Investors ”

Our whole (soul) effort with this “ABCs of AfricaMarket for Investors” is to help you de-piece and decode the complex 1.3 billion people Africa market.

A market that is very often underrated by global investors and brands, hugely mis-understood because of distorted narratives fueled (intentionally) by media headlines; to undermine its competitiveness vis-a-vis other regions in the world.

Changing the narrative, one ABC at a time

Our aim is to get you to have a Paradigm Shift on Africa and the Africa Market. To help you cleanse your sub-conscious mind of all the negativity about Africa the media has been feeding you with; for ages.

Our aim is to get you to understand the dynamics and inner-workings of the Africa market, that far supersede all degradation created by the media.

Our aim is simplify and condense the complex (immensely differing geographical, political, social, economical, and cultural nuances) Africa Market into bite sizes, so that you can no longer ignore the Africa Market in your portfolio of investments.

Our aim is to help you with “The Who”, “The Where” and “The How” to invest in Africa Market, so that you can enter confidently into Africa market, penetrate and, quadruple your results/returns effortlessly.

We challenge you with this quote made in 2014 by the Africa CEO Forum

The conflicts under way in Guinea-Bissau, Mali and the Central African Republic are front-page news in the international press, even though they are comparable to what is happening in certain parts of Indonesia, Malaysia or Myanmar. Stories abound of piracy activities off the coast of Somalia, even though there are five times more such incidents in the Straits of Malacca. Fewer people are affected by conflict in the whole of Africa than by the latent war between India and Pakistan in the Kashmir region. But people only talk about Africa! This unfortunate image deters potential international investments in the continent and creates a real obstacle to its competitiveness.

Be the first to cast the stone on Africa:

If your own country hasn’t felt the anguish of poverty?

If disease has not ravaged your race?

If you have not experienced corruption and bad governance in your region or country?

If your country or people have never been blackmailed for vested interest?

If you haven’t seen external forces try or interfere with your country’s politics?…

Starting a business, growing one, or presenting new ideas and directions requires a strong foundation. Having a plan in place allows you to clarify your intentions and goals, while also potentially setting you up for success as you begin to execute on the things you want to accomplish in an efficient way.

A business plan can be developed for personal use or shared with others as a way of clueing people into your work.

Getting Started

An executive summary is a common way of briefly summarizing what the company or idea is and what your plan for success might be. It may contain problems or projections and background information as well as conclusions you have developed that you can expand on later in the proposal. Conceptualizing future growth and information relevant to the financial side of things can also be helpful here.

Developing a Description

Do you have the ability to share your work, abilities, or company with someone else in a cohesive way? Do you have the language to spark interest in the work you do or appeal to potential customers? Chances are that doing this effectively requires some greater thought.

Learning how to give a shortened explanation while also having a lengthier rundown handy can be useful when sharing about what you are doing with others. Including this as a part of your plan, either to share or for your own records will make future discussions easier.

If you only have a brief moment to explain your work you can pull on the pitch you’ve developed and if there’s time in the future or someone wants to hear more, you can take them through relevant parts of your business plan.

Research

A business strategy requires understanding what the industry you work in looks like. Whether you are looking at what companies similar to your own are doing or are trying to gage price points for potential expenses, it is better to have these kinds of facts well ahead of time. This market analysis can help you and others who may be involved with your work to feel more prepared going forward.

Identifying where you might be able to expand your business is important as well. Sharing opportunities for marketing or outlining ways you can become competitive allows you to execute on those thoughts later on.

Company Structure

Whether it is just you, a few other contributors, or a large scale effort involving many other professionals, assigning structure and responsibility provides a baseline for future work. As you bring people into your business or take on clients, it shows a level of clarification and professionalism to be able to delegate or point to who tackles specific things as they come up.

Schedule an Appointment

In general, business plans allow you to frame goals, projections, and plans for the future and are helpful ways to bring others into the work you are doing. If you are interested in getting help with your projects or aspirations, schedule an appointment with us today.
The hidden correlation between the Diffusion of Innovation Theory and Generation Gap

The hidden correlation between the Diffusion of Innovation Theory and Generation Gap

Diffusion of Innovation Theory is a hypothesis outlining how new technological advancements spread throughout societies and cultures from introduction to wider adoption. The theory seeks to explain how and why new ideas are adopted with timelines potentially spread out over longer periods. Alif Mada Dec 21, 2020·2 min read

Generation Gap comes into play when people don’t understand eachother because of differences in their experiences,opinions,habits and behaviour.

A recent example of this method is Facebook. It started off as a product targeted at students and professionals in educational institutions. The students spread use is the product to mainstream society and across borders.

Factors influencing the theory :-

Generation gap influenced the adoption of an innovation due to observability (the degree to which the innovation provides tangible results).

Complexity to use or understand the innovation. The trialibility hat whether or not an innovation can be tested before a commitment to adopt is made.

Relative advantage is also seen that whether that innovation better than before.

The most important is the comparability that how consistent is the innovation with the values, experiences and needs of the potential adopters. Youngsters are willing to take risks. Very little needs to be done to appeal them. Youngsters are aware of the need to change and are very comfortable in adopting new ideas.They are opinion leaders.

Elderly people typically need to see evidence that the innovation works before they adopt it.They are skeptical to change and adopt it only after the majority has tried. Elderly people are bound by traditional and are very conservative.

Based on the differences of attitudes these two groups are ranged till laggards. In Pakistan if a new drug was released the doctors would be more satisfied to use it if they get positive response from the patients than from the nurse.

Data science is the art of delivering value through data. Delivering this value to a customer often requires a complex interaction of business understanding, mathematics, and computer science practice.

An enterprise is defined as any human endeavor involving people, its purpose to serve a customer, where various kinds of platforms support each activity. The customer value describes the heart of an enterprise objective while delivering the value is often done via services and products affecting humans and their environment.

Enterprise data science is focusing on enterprises producing products and their related services.

These enterprises often have a complex value chain.A value chain is a set of activities that an enterprise performs to deliver a valuable product (i.e., good or service) for the market (source wiki)

Michael Porter’s value chain — lecture slide @TU Kaiserslautern, Germany

Various definitions exist for a value chain, for simplicity, in this context it is defined with a focus on manufactured goods.

Product Development

Procurement

Supply Chain

Manufacturing

Marketing / Sales

Lifecycle management

Customer Services A value chain model describes the mechanism to execute the processes.

In each building block within a value chain, many decisions are carried out, most often by humans.

Which product should we design

Where to source the components

Should we produce product A or B this week

How much should I give a discount

Should we phase out the product

Which customer to serve when and how

We have to make decisions over and over again, and each decision affects the future. Typically we distinguish between:

the strategic decisions with a focus on future years,

tactical decisions with a focus on the next months,

operational decisions with a focus within the day or week

Data science has the goal to support better decisions through data.

Supporting effective decisions through data means often supporting a human with the help of decision support systems.

Supporting effective decision means most often the push towards automation or automation support.
