Every company has a WorkiQ, however, most companies don't have good reporting tools to help calculate and improve it. This presentation introduces the benefits of finding and improving your company's WorkiQ through workforce analytics.
WorkiQ captures real-time desktop analytics and generates dynamic management dashboard based on the actual work activity of employees. WorkiQ can track activities across ALL applications, productive hours, the real steps involved with business processes, and the amount of time it takes associates to complete various categories of work tasks.
Common applications of WorkiQ Workforce Analytics:
Identify top performers and replicate their activities/processes across teams.
Eliminate self-reporting on activity time, throughput, and cycle time.
Improve distribution of work by identifying underutilized skillsets or overworked associates.
Increase engagement through peer-performance scorecards and gamification.
Expose activities that drain an unnecessary amount of time and attention so that systems or processes can be improved. (critical before adjusting a core system or developing automation)
Reduce outsourcing and overtime expense by increasing efficiency of current employees.

This document discusses payroll management for small businesses. It notes that small businesses have different payroll needs than larger companies. The human resources department is responsible for ensuring employees are paid on time to avoid decreased motivation and increased turnover. Older payroll systems required large documentation, making them difficult to manage if records were lost. Modern electronic payroll systems allow payroll information and amounts to be easily accessed online without extensive documentation. Employees can now submit sick leave and request pay increases online, improving motivation and commitment levels. Proper payroll management is important for efficiency and organizational profits.Intentional Innovation Brochure-2015

#NoEstimatesOleg Shanyuk
油
Estimates provide project leadership with a view of the project reality to make good decisions, but there is rarely certainty in software development. While estimates solve problems for businesses that want cost and schedule certainty, the problems can potentially be solved differently. The #NoEstimates approach eliminates much of the planning work in favor of collaborating with customers to develop high-level goals and deliver working software frequently, forming a partnership rather than a contractual negotiation. It moves away from committing to requirements that will not be worked on immediately and allows requirements to evolve over time.Time Management

This document discusses the challenges that small and medium enterprises (SMEs) face related to automation. It identifies key challenges as taking the right decision about automation, choosing the appropriate technology and software solutions, and managing organizational change. Specifically, it notes that SMEs must decide whether to automate now or later, consider a big bang or phased approach, and ensure automation aligns with business objectives. Choosing solutions requires evaluating make vs buy options and selecting applications that fit the business. Managing change is the biggest challenge and requires treating automation as an HR issue and having leadership support change management.Leading from Within

The BIA forms the basis for prioritizing business continuity plan efforts. The document provides guidance on key aspects of developing a BIA, including that it is a continuous process, not a one-time project. It also emphasizes the importance of defining goals, metrics, impact categories and final deliverables before collecting data.Bright Ideas-Strategies for Developing Championship Form

1) The VP of Process Improvement at Big Electronics Corp. explains that while manufacturing process improvements have been very successful, yielding significant gains, their efforts to improve product engineering have failed despite trying many different tools and consultants.
2) In a meeting with the CEO, he outlines the rules of his successful manufacturing process improvement approach, including not adding people, having stretch throughput objectives to be met in under two years, and providing resources but doubling throughput requirements after two years. However, these same tactics have not worked for product engineering.
3) The consultant is now meeting with product development engineers to understand the dynamics of their process and how to design sustainable improvement programs.1. Briefly describe your current position and responsibilities.

One night, deep within one of those YouTube rabbit holes-you know, the ones where you progress from video to video until you already can't remember what you were searching for-well, I found myself stuck in crypto horror stories. I have watched people share how they lost access to their Bitcoin wallets, be it through hacks, forgotten passwords, glitches in software, or mislaid seed phrases. Some of the stupid mistakes made me laugh; others were devastating losses. At no point did I think I would be the next story. Literally the next morning, I tried to get to my wallet like usual, but found myself shut out. First, I assumed it was some sort of minor typo, but after multiple attempts-anything I could possibly do with the password-I realized that something had gone very wrong. $400,000 in Bitcoin was inside that wallet. I tried not to panic. Instead, I went back over my steps, checked my saved credentials, even restarted my device. Nothing worked. The laughter from last night's videos felt like a cruel joke now. This wasn't funny anymore. It was then that I remembered: One of the videos on YouTube spoke about Cranix Ethical Solutions Haven. It was some dude who lost his crypto in pretty similar circumstances. He swore on their expertise; I was out of options and reached out to them. From the very moment I contacted them, their staff was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable indeed. I told them my case, and then they just went ahead and introduced me to the plan. They reassured me that they have dealt with cases similar to this-and that I wasn't doomed as I felt. Over the course of a few days, they worked on meticulously analyzing all security layers around my wallet, checking for probable failure points, and reconstructing lost credentials with accuracy and expertise. Then came the call that changed everything: Your funds are safe. Youre back in. I cant even put into words the relief I felt at that moment. Cranix Ethical Solutions Haven didnt just restore my walletthey restored my sanity. I walked away from this experience with two important lessons:
1. Never, ever neglect a wallet backup.
2. If disaster strikes, Cranix Ethical Solutions Haven is the only name you need to remember.
If you're reading this and thinking, "That would never happen to me," I used to think the same thing.油Until油it油did.

We study the effects of gender board diversity on firm performance. We use novel and rich firm-level data covering over seven million private and public firms spanning the years 1995-2020 in Europe. We augment a standard TFP estimation with a shift-share instrument for gender board diversity. We find that increasing the share of women in the boardroom is conducive to better economic performance. The results prove robust in a variety of subsamples, and to a variety of sensitivity analyses. This outcome is driven primarily by firms from the service sector. The positive impact was stronger during the more recent years of our sample that is a period with relatively more board diversity. The Economic History of the United States 10
