Nothing can be said in a better way

Are you surprising your customers? Are you making them feel seen, heard, welcomed, and valued? Are you showing appreciation for their contribution to the growth of your business? It doesn't have to be expensive. But it does have to be genuine and come from the heart. #customerexperience #strategy #value #clientappreciation #capglobalconsulting

In profession or personal life, two ways of looking at is service and looking for profit. Most of us look profit and few for service!!! The money you earn might not come back again, But the the service you render returns!!!! Engineering has to consider how good it offers services to the society and how good the society gets benefited? Engineering education should focus on skill transfer, keeping in the Societal need, how best graduates identify a problem that needs an Engineering solution and then solve it contributing to the societal and Sustainable Development. The quality of an Institute and it's Engineering Education depends on how big our students can solve and how efficient the solutions are!!! All other measures change with time!!! Start teaching the the students think how they can offer small services to acquire service orientation and as the time goes by, the mindset majes them search for problems, solving them by itself leads to enormous contribution!!!!

When a business team collaborates effectively with customers and secures the right funding, it sets the stage for remarkable achievements. Teamwork is essential for maximizing organizational success, as it fosters trust, encourages diverse perspectives, and cultivates a culture of accountability1. Moreover, the right funding can fuel innovation, support growth, and enable the execution of strategic plans. Here’s a brief overview of how teamwork and funding contribute to business success: Teamwork: It’s the backbone of any successful organization. Effective teams are built on trust, clear communication, and a shared vision. When team members work together harmoniously, they can leverage their diverse skills to innovate and solve problems more efficiently2. Funding: Adequate funding allows a business to invest in resources, technology, and talent. It also provides the financial stability needed to take calculated risks and pursue new opportunities. Together, these elements create a powerful synergy that can lead to outstanding results, such as improved performance, higher customer satisfaction, and increased profitability. It’s like a formula for success where teamwork and funding are variables that, when optimized, can yield exponential growth: Success=f(Teamwork,Funding) In this equation, ‘f’ represents the function of how teamwork and funding interact to drive success. The better the teamwork and the more strategic the funding, the greater the potential for success.

I love the work of Peter Singer and Charlie Bresler in expanding the effective giving movement. This interesting video conveys how much personal virtue needed to save lives can vary depending on context. Historically, people made huge sacrifices, risking their own lives to save others, even strangers, showing tremendous bravery and self-sacrifice. Yet today, we can save lives if we show a small fraction of the concern for others that we have for ourselves; for instance, my understanding is that a life is statistically saved for ever $5k donated to the Against Malaria Foundation. We have gone from requiring tremendous bravery and self-sacrifice, in expectation, to a bare minimal level of generosity, to save lives and tremendously better the circumstances of others. There are more people that can clear this new, lower bar, but, unfortunately, not enough do. Thus, there is so much needless death and misery. One way of framing the goal of the Profit for Good project is to lower that bar of decency required to save lives and better the world even further. If a charitable foundation benefiting the Against Malaria Foundation was the owner of a firm that sold consumer products or services of similar quality and price as competitors, one could fund charities without personal sacrifice. Simply choose the $10 detergent bottle that saves lives rather than the $10 detergent bottle that benefits random investors. In such a case, the bar would be moved further lower from sacrificial bravery, to minimal generosity, to non-psychopathy; that is, one need merely not be wholly ambivalent toward his/her money saving/bettering lives rather than enriching random investors. I believe the set of life-savers would expand dramatically if people had this choice, as it seems to do when the bar is lowered. This means one of the best things we can do is make it easier to do good, which Singer and Bresler have done in their work highlighting effective charities. I hope my organization, and all the other businesses and people advancing Profit for Good, can also help to make it easier to do good, albeit in a different way. Charlie Bresler, PhD

Raymond Malone, Chairman Fairness in Construction Board 414 E 12th Street, 4th Floor East Kansas City, Missouri 64106 raymond.malone1943@gmail.com April 16, 2024 Quinton Lucas, Mayor City Council, All Districts Cc: Brian Platt, City Manager Cc:Jaime Guillen, CREO Director City of Kansas City, Missouri City Hall, 29th Floor (Mayor) City Hall, 22nd Floor (City Council) Kansas City, Missouri 64106 Honorable Mayor and City Councilpersons, Our past letters and messages to you to date have gone unanswered, therefore I’m forced to write this letter to informed you of our very real concerns. As the appointed Chair of the Fairness in Construction Board, who has always strived for excellence and professionalism, I find it necessary to address these issues in the hope of fostering a more inclusive and equitable contracting environment. As a reminder, the Fairness in Construction Board was created to address and remediate unfair public procurement procedures in both city funded and assisted projects, including tax incentivized projects. Particularly, the Fairness in Construction Board addresses disparities and exclusion of available and qualified socioeconomically disadvantaged businesses on publicly funded and assisted contracts. Through the implementation of the Fairness in Construction Board (“Board”), we have created a more competitive and fair environment for all. This is achieved through the collaborative process of the members of the Board. Being comprised of collective bargaining organizations, majority owned businesses, minority and woman owned businesses, construction business organizations, professional construction services organizations, and community input has created a partnership that promotes equal access, opportunity and protection of the laws of the city, state and federal government in public procurement. The strength of the Board has been transparency in data collection and reporting from the City’s Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity Department. After repeated requests, the Board has been denied access to reports, administrative support and monitoring of city-funded and assisted contracts, including tax-incentivized projects (such as the Meta data-center project and more recently the Google data-center project). This has caused an increase in complaints of discriminatory activity in public procurement processes, on construction projects and reports of economic abuse of small and disadvantaged businesses on taxpayer funded projects. Over the past several decades, I have encountered numerous instances of discrimination based on race, color, sex and national origin in construction and its contracting procedures. These instances have ranged from subtle biases to outright discriminatory actions. A few examples of why Prime contractors need to be monitored. Especially JE Dunn, Turner Construction and McCownGordon in Kansas City Missouri our Disparity report displays discrimination. Mayor ignores Kcmo Fairness Board.
