admin — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 23:39:59 +0000

Barely a year ago, when former investment banker Stephanie Cuskley took the CEO spot at NPower, a nonprofit organization created in 1999 to connect other nonprofits with competent, affordable information technology and assistance, it already had a solid business model. NPower derives half its funding from outside donations and the other half from two IT services it has developed over the years: Solutions and Consulting, a software management system for nonprofits, and Managed Services, a service by which NPower manages computer help desks for other nonprofit organizations. So what changed things at NPower?

Case Study on Trade Unions

admin — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 09:40:47 +0000

Trade unions are a major component of the system of modern industrial relations in any nation, each having, in their constitution, their own set of objectives or goals to achieve. Change in the political, social and educational environment has seen them rechristened as a forum that protects and furthers workers' interests and improves the quality of life of workers, enlarging their traditional roles of establishing terms and conditions of employment For more information on THE CHANGING ROLES OF TRADE UNIONS IN INDIA This article presents an expanded model of union education in relation to the learning and action required to mediate workplace change.

Case Study on Obama

admin — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 12:57:05 +0000

Barack Obama’s presidential campaign was more than a major social media milestone because it ushered in a new relationship model among leaders and their supporters. Due to social media, an unprecedented number of individuals had a new kind of active, direct role in Obama’s campaign; moreover, I predict that the Obama campaign and imminent administration will change citizens’ and consumers’ expectations of “leader” and “follower” roles in government and business. Amazon.com changed consumers’ expectations about retail in general—information on demand, reviews, unbelievable variety at low prices—and a significant portion of Obama supporters will want to continue their support to “make the change happen.” These supporters will bring their changed expectations of action and collaboration to their vendors. That means your company.

As a student in Obama’s constitutional law class in 2001, Escuder was impressed by his teacher’s ability to see both sides of an argument. “I figured Obama would respect the stance I took in the paper, whether or not he agreed with it,” Escuder, now a public defender in Illinois, told me.
