People Movement

Rapid culture change among tribal groups in Mindanao, Philippines, has produced a generation of young people who are eager to seek a new, more prestigious identity. Western missionaries, influenced by their society's obsession with the future and with youth, run counter to tribal worldviews when they consider young people the most effective target for evangelism. Targeting the youth can often prevent a tribal society's most effective communicators from a realistic hearing of the gospel and block a valid people movement. This article describes certain processes and problems of rapid culture change and urges some serious rethinking about strategies for evangelism in this area.

The Creation

DMPonline and the DMPTool are well-established tools for data management planning. As the software of each matures and the user communities grow, we turn our attention to issues of sustainability, culture change, and international collaboration. Here we outline strategies for addressing these issues. We propose to build a new, global framework for data management planning that links plans to researchers, funders, publications, data, and other components of the research lifecycle. By refocusing our efforts from promoting the creation of data management plans (DMPs) to comply with funder requirements to supporting the creation of good DMPs that can be implemented, we seek to further enable the open scholarship revolution, advancing science and society.

Customer Demands

In an effort towards business survival, an executive team considers progressive options for the future of their organization. The external business environment continues to change with fierce competition, a battle for talent, budget pressures and changing customer demands. What does it take for a large multinational Fortune 500 ‘logistics’ organization based in the USA to modify the culture and become an acclaimed learning organization? A decision to conduct employee ‘culture’ surveys in combination with other efforts was implemented. The authors share the experience of an organization’s odyssey to a learning organization through a change of culture.

Second-epoch photographs have now been obtained for nearly 850 of the 1246 fields of the proper motion program with centers at declination -20° and northwards. For the sky at 0° and northward only 130 fields remain to be taken in the next year or two. The 270 southern fields with centers at -5° to -20° remain for the future.
