Another Week Gone By

By
Just one of those weeks when time seems to catch up with you, once in a while. I recently tumbled across a cool invention by Google called Google Sites. I went through the whole reviews of the service offered by Google electronically and I was quite impressed by the app.

I think it would be quite useful to students who find themselves in a position where they need to get information from other students (a community notice board). It allows for the admin and whomsoever else will have relevant permissions to post on the sit to post announcements, advertisements, career information and so and so forth.

If that's what you would like to have access to then you should try Google Sites out. Anyway, this week has gone by so smoothly that it is actually unbelievable that it is Wednesday already. Let me ride this week through on this tip that I am on.

Future of Logistics Management

This session was insightful introduction into the future of logistics. I learnt that the the world of work is shifting. The corporate environment is slowly moving with the times and is increasingly digitizing. The employee is therefore expected to evolve into an employee that is able to: Work anytime, Work anywhere, Work on on any device, Focus on outputs, Create their own ladder, Customize their work, Share information, Develop into a leader, Rely on collaboration technologies, Focus on adaptive learning, and Learn on their own.  However, the lack of digital culture and training is hampering the logistics and transportation industry. More over, companies are concerned about various challenges that are impeding their ability to digitize their operations. Companies are concerned with data security and data privacy, especially with the increasing use of external data. What I also found insightful was the the high financial investments and the lack of digital strategy are other issues...

Innovation in Motion

By
We were tasked with preparing a presentation that describes constraints that I am experiencing in my business. The presentation must also describe how the application of methods/tools/techniques learned during the course will enable me to better manage this situation. This final week was very nerve-wrecking and very interesting for me.  It was nerve-wrecking because I have a severe speech impediment (a stutter) that may unnecessarily cause me to take longer than the other students. So, I decided to record my presentation to ease this process. It was also very interesting because I work in a very complex organization that is part of a very dynamic and international Science and Technology project that is experiencing but also addressing complex challenges. It was exciting for me to outline these issues and also providing my proposed solutions to these challenges. Background and Overview Inter-University Institute for Data Intensive Astronomy (IDIA) was born out of the partnership of ...
