Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt. Maar met die kansen ontstaan ook vragen: Zelf retail media worden of erop adverteren? In welke fase van de funnel past het en hoe integreer je het in een mediaplan? Wat is nu precies het verschil met marketplaces en Programmatic ads? In dit half uur beslechten we de dilemma's en krijg je antwoorden op wanneer het voor jou tijd is om de volgende stap te zetten.

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

With an anti-lock brake system, this light comes on
when you start the vehicle and may stay on for several
seconds before turning off. This is a normal function
for this warning system. If the light stays on, or comes
on when you are driving, it is warning you that there is
a problem in the ABS system and should be checked
by a qualified mechanic.
The light should flash for a few seconds and then go out
indicating the system is activated. If the air bag readiness
light stays on or comes on while you are driving, it is
warning you there is a problem. If the air bag system in
your vehicle is not working properly it can be extremely
dangerous. The air bags:
- may NOT inflate in the event of a crash; or
- may inflate while driving without being involved in a crash.

Tire BlowoutTire Blowout
A Tire Blowout is a rapid deflation of air from
the tire. This sudden loss of air could occur by:
- hitting a sharp object that punctures the tire;
- having a defective tire; or
- having an under-inflated tire that loses its
seal to the rim while the tires are rotating.
If a front tire blows out, the vehicle will pull sharply
in the direction of the blowout.
If a rear tire blows out, the vehicle will wobble,
shake and pull slightly in the direction of the flat tire.
If a blowout occurs:
Grip the steering wheel firmly.
Take your foot off the accelerator.
DO NOT BRAKE. Braking may cause the vehicle to swerve.
Allow the vehicle to slow on its own, or brake gently.
Check traffic around you and turn on emergency flashers.
Drive to a protected location and pull off the roadway.
Have the tire replaced.

The Steering SystemThe Steering System —— controls the position of the front wheels and allows the
driver to change vehicle direction.
General Steering Wheel System Operation:General Steering Wheel System Operation:
• Avoid turning the steering wheel when the vehicle is
not moving; this causes wear on the steering system.
• Never force the steering to the limit of travel; you will
hear a screeching sound if you have gone too far. Back
off slightly and the wheels will still be fully turned.
Forcing the system to the limit of travel causes
unnecessary wear and early failure.
• Avoid deep potholes, curbs, and any other sudden
or hard impacts that may cause damage to the
steering components. Have the steering system aligned
at least once a year and after any serious impacts.
• Periodically inspect the power steering pump belt and
check the power steering fluid. (Consult the owner’s
manual for exact locations.)
The basic function of suspension and steering systems is to keep the vehicle stable, while
allowing the wheels to maintain contact with the road and move independently of the car.

The Suspension SystemThe Suspension System
The suspension system is engineered to keep the vehicle's
wheels in firm contact with the road and pointed in the direction
the driver is steering. Plus it helps provide a comfortable ride for
all vehicle occupants. The system includes a series of rods,
bars, springs, and other components. These components:
support the weight of the vehicle;
absorb the shocks caused by road
irregularities; and
provide flexibility while ensuring
vehicle stability.

Tires are rated on the Uniform Tire Quality Grading System. Ratings are indicated on
the sidewall of the tire.
Treadwear rating — the higher the treadwear rating the greater the mileage.
A tire with a treadwear rating of 150 is expected to last 50 percent longer
than one graded at 100.
Traction — is measured by the ability to stop a car in straight-ahead motion on a wet surface
Tires which are graded A have the best traction performance, B grading is an
above average rating, and CC grading indicates the tire meets government standards.

A vehicle requires an elaborate electrical system of circuits to produce,
store, and distribute all the electricity required for operation.
• Battery — energy is stored in chemical form and
is used to supply the electricity to start the
engine and run auxiliary devices such as
clocks, radios and alarms
• Starter Motor — starts the engine
• Alternator — recharge + power the electrical system
A device called the voltage regulator keeps the power level stabilized, and
the fuse box keeps minor problems from becoming major ones.
• Ignition Coil — increases the 12-
volt current to many thousands of
volts needed to start the engine
• Distributor — distributes electrical surges to the spark plugs
• Spark Plugs — produce spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the
engine combustion chambers

Brakes are actually energy conversion devices. When you step on the brakes,
they convert the kinetic energykinetic energy (momentum) of your vehicle into thermalthermal
energyenergy (heat). Thousands of pounds of pressure are applied on each of the
four brakes, permitting the driver to slow or stop the rotation of the tires. The
friction of the tires against the road surface will then slow and/or stop the
vehicle.
Vehicles are equipped with two braking systems:Vehicles are equipped with two braking systems:
