The efficiency of capital and physical resource can be achieved through combined efforts of human resources. This paper is descriptive design. The study tackled areas of workforce diversity effects on diversity of performance of employees and how workforce diversity can be managed to the positive outcomes of an organization.

<p>This thesis explores how a weaker negotiating party may be able to effectively manage information as a tool to leverage power imbalances in negotiations. Although these imbalances may never be completely resolved, the effective management of information will enable the weaker party to stack their advantages in their favour to increase their chances for a fairer outcome.  The thesis will look at the management of information through the phases of gathering, processing and conveying information. It is proposed that these phases are managed by three specific professionals, the analytical investigator, the innovative inventor and the diplomatic salesperson. These archetypes personify certain attributes that a negotiator can evoke when extracting applicable intelligence from raw information to use in negotiation discussions. The intention is for raw information to be processed as applicable intelligence through these phases in an assembly-line fashion to produce options for mutual gain for the negotiating parties.  In the process of establishing this assembly line, the thesis will also explore the interplay between competitive and collaborative negotiation strategies. With this exploration, a negotiator may be able to be integrate these strategies to negotiate on both bargaining and problem-solving platforms using the Negotiator’s Assembly Line.</p>

Chicken Eggs

Chicken eggs are considered an important animal protein source and are easily accessible in terms of availability and affordability, particularly for low-income earners. Trade competition is a major problem facing the egg-based livestock SMEs in Sumberagung village. According to a particular business owner, marketing media is essential in creating more awareness and demands. This enterprise is managed independently, with the support of family members. Therefore, effective management principles are rarely applied. However, observation, discussion and problem-solving methods were employed, in addition to the waterfall system development model. The present research explored the Shopee e-commerce application to design a digital platform to market products and create extensive public awareness. The website also served as a faster medium to manage consumer requests directly. Therefore, the development of information systems is expected to boost SMEs productivity, create a wider product identity and compete favorably with other producers, with the potentials of increasing business profits.

Disinfection Byproduct

The Nagoya Waterworks and Sewerage Bureau has developed original supporting tools for the systematic and cost-effective management of problem solving. An environmental information map and prediction of pollutant reaching are used for rapid and appropriate proper countermeasures against water quality accidents in the source area. In disinfection byproduct control a method for estimating trihalomethane (THM) contents was effective for the complement of their observations. Surrogate indicators such as turbidity and conductivity that could be measured continuously also could complement water quality items measured monthly. A processing tool of voluminous data was practical for rapid judgment of water quality. Systematic monitoring was established for stricter turbidity control for measures against Cryptosporidium and keeping residual chlorine stable in the service area.
