Company has built up its strength from mergers and acquisitions in the year of 1980 and 1990. As a result, in the year of 2006, the ART portfolio consist of 60 business units having major divisions of Industrial automation, Health care, HVAC (Heating ventilation and air conditioning) and Water management Division. Backbone of the business:- Innovative Culture:- The company success is based on the innovative environment and friendly culture for the entrepreneur mind people. The encouragement for innovative ideas can be idealized from the fact that company spends double money on supporting innovative ideas from the other industrial companies. This innovative culture comes from the top, because the CEO (David Hall) encourage employees to spend half day in a week in brainstorming, problem solving and experimenting which is referred as “tinker time”. According to the CEO, he likes to have meetings of managers and innovators so that new ideas emerged. According to him, it is the fact that you will not succeed every time but we should celebrate worthy attempts even they are unsuccessful.

...blew. First of all, at the current market situation, commercial application of digital creations still remains immature. Though the market is still a Blue Ocean, it is hard for TeamLab to make a reasonable profit. There is not enough demand from the market, so TeamLab is still a long way to off. Secondly, there seems to be a lack of brand promotion. TeamLab usually waited the projects to come in rather than actively strove for its business. TeamLab business model is based on previously word of mouth, which would be a limitation for its further development. Lastly, the oversimplified organizational structure is an important problem crying out for solution. In order to raise operating margin, TeamLab creates the “Catalyst” position. But actually it is still too simple to extent the company scale. 2. the trade-offs involved in different scenarios The trade-offs involved in these scenarios should be assessed in the business environment, the company strategy, market promotion plan and internal organization structure. 3. the recommendation and implementation plan According to the result of the analysis and discussion, I think TeamLab can implement three plans as followed. First, it is time for TeamLab to expand the product line and stamp “patent protection” on its inventions. Second, begin to comb the layout of the target customer and enhance the brand promotion strategy. Third, TeamLab has to redesign the company internal...

Downloaded from ann.sagepub.com at NATIONAL UNIV SINGAPORE on October 14, 2011 Capital, Consumption, Communication, and Citizenship: The Social Positioning of Taste and Civic Culture in the United States By LEWIS FRIEDLAND, DHAVAN V. SHAH, NAM-JIN LEE, MARK A. RADEMACHER, LUCY ATKINSON, and THOMAS HOVE In this article, the authors analyze the field of cultural consumption in the United States. Using the 2000 DDB Lifestyle Study, they examine a cross-section of Americans in terms of their occupational categories, media usage, consumption practices, social behaviors, and indicators of civic and political engagement. In doing so, the authors find many parallels to the determinants of taste, cultural discrimination, and choice within the field structure observed by Bourdieu in 1960s French...

...Log My Personal Interest Project topic was chosen with my micro world in mind, due to my interest in art as well as being a Visual Art student. Through studying gender roles during my Visual Art course and exploring social exclusion in Society and Culture, it compelled me to want to learn more about the representation of women within the art world. As a socially aware individual with an interest in art, I felt the need to explore these inequalities to see if they still exist and how this may impact on other young artists. The research methods that I chose were interview, statistical analysis and content analysis, which would provide me qualitative results, as well as quantitative by being able to collect data and statistics. Originally, I planned on conducting a focus group discussion, however as my project progressed, I decided on content analysis as it allowed me to observe a variety of sources and immerse myself in the art world. By choosing an interview I was able to gain insightful knowledge from four females who were either art curators or historians and one male who is an art historian. This gave me qualitative results as I was able to receive in-depth answers from numerous people and allowed and exploration of my cross-cultural by interviewing both genders and gaining their perspectives on this. However, there were some limitations such as by completing my interviews through e-mail, I was not able to ask any follow up questions for answers to be further elaborated...

...School Board approves of community-based charter schools. All Matanuska-Susitna Borough School District (MSBSD) Charter School programs are open to student’s applications who reside within the school district. Starting a charter school is truly a community effort. However, the rewards we may find by creating a new educational option for children are well worth the effort. The first question we want to answer is why do we want to start a charter school? As a charter developer, we need to have a clear answer to this question. Matanuska-Susitna Valley residents desire a school that provides a rich and comprehensive educational program for students with talents and potential in dance, instrumental music, vocal music, theatre, and visual art or media arts. This school will provide students and parents with expanded choices in the types of educational opportunities that are available within the public school system to maximize each student’s special talents. Our graduates will increase the quality of their life, the lives of people who surround them, and the respective communities of the Valley. There are many people interested in helping to start our charter school waiting for recruitment. These founders will include parents, teachers, school principals, lawyers, business entrepreneurs and accountants. Our founding group needs to have expertise in a variety of areas, including: • Curriculum & instruction • Public school financing • Real estate • Human resources • Public relations ...

...Page | 1 Executive Summary This report presents key findings from the Department of Energy’s Advanced Drivetrain Workshop, held on June 29‐30, 2010 in Broomfield, Colorado, to assess different advanced drivetrain technologies, their relative potential to improve the state‐of‐the‐art in wind turbine drivetrains, and the scope of research and development needed for their commercialization in wind turbine applications. The Advanced Drivetrain Workshop evaluated next‐generation technologies to identify those with potential to radically improve the reliability, performance, and capital cost of wind turbine drivetrains beyond the incremental improvements that might be expected for current state‐of‐the‐art technologies. The workshop featured four separate discussion tracks, each focused on a broad category of drivetrain technologies: Superconducting Drivetrains; Advanced Permanent Magnet Generators; Continuously Variable Transmissions and Fluid Drive Systems; and Innovative and Non‐Traditional Drivetrain Concepts. Workshop participants identified major research topics with the potential to improve on the state‐of‐ the‐art in wind turbine drivetrains for each of the four broad drivetrain technology categories. The participants also listed the major barriers to the commercialization of these technologies and potential research and development pathways for overcoming those barriers. Those results are summarized in Table 1 below. Table 1. Benefits, Barriers...

...Provisional title The provisional title of the following project proposal is “LSA Logistics UK innovative shipping of artworks” Hypothesis for the project This project aims to investigate whether there is an appropriate field in United Kingdom for the idea of innovative shipping of artworks to grow up and be successful. According to Valerie J. Easton and John H. McColl (1997) there are several kinds of hypothesis such as: null, alternative, simple and composite hypothesis. In this particular project I choose the alternative hypothesis as a tool for investigation. In other words this means that I will try to explain and prove that the new idea of shipping service will be successful and at the same time that it will provide a lot of advantages for the company LSA Logistics UK not only when it comes to finance returns, but when it comes to gaining new loyal clients and excellent reputation, too. Valerie J. Easton and John H. McColl (1997) claim that alternative hypothesis should include a proper investigation, which conclusion should explain why the newly invented product or service will be beneficial and needed for a sufficient number of potential clients. To make an alternative hypothesis a person should have objects or services to compare. In this case I have a great deal of competitors, which do offer this type of service. So at the end of the investigation I should be able to conclude that the new highly improved service of LSA Logistics UK is better than the services of...

...Art has been a form of therapy for people throughout history. More recently, studies have shown that creating art has had positive results for groups and individuals. The effects can be found in the individual with a mental illness as well as helping to build relationships between them and the surrounding community. These benefits can also be found at the Vision Quest Studio in Bradford, Vermont, where the director, Bob Claflin, LCMHC, provides an environment to create art with three men with mental illnesses. Art therapy is the combination of visual expression and therapeutic healing. Historically, it has been known that art is beneficial, as it is one of the oldest forms of healing: art has been recognized for its positive effects physically,...

...The Art Of Auditing Internal Auditor, August, 2000 by Lawrence Metzger "Creativity" and "auditor" are not contradictory terms. In fact, creative thinking is the linchpin of effective internal auditing--and it's a skill you can learn and polish. The work of internal auditors is as much an art as it is a science or technique. The internal audit process encompasses far more than a series of rote checklists; it is much more akin to an archeological dig, where layers of information are methodically uncovered. To connect and understand the layers of organizations, the internal auditor must be able to think creatively. Not only is creativity an inherent aspect of successful internal auditing, but it has become a hot, sought-after commodity in all fields. In his book Jamming, John Kao observes that we are living in an age of creativity. He argues, for example, that global competition is increasingly about a company's ability to mobilize its ideas, talents, and creative abilities. Kao maintains, along with other observers, that companies will increasingly be measured by their knowledge, and he emphasizes that creativity is the crucial variable in the process of turning knowledge into value. Knowledge is more than mastery of facts and data; it is also insight-the ability to see into a situation and make connections. Ideas are interconnected insights that we can grab and run with. And it is creativity that enables the transformation of one form of knowledge to the next. Kao states that...
