In the article, based on the results of the research of Russian projects of failed, the authors determine the need to increase the definition of project success. They add important criterion - the added value for a company and applicability of project results in operation. For systematize the reasons for the failure of projects, the article proposes the elementary taxonomy consisting of 2 groups. The presence of factors of the first group, the project definitely will not be successful upon completion. The presence of factors of the second group, the project can be completed within the budget and in the schedule, but the quality of the project results will suffer greatly, making them inapplicable in operations. The authors determine 4 types of state that the project lives while moving toward failure, thereby determining the typical path of degradation of project management. For identify the failure of the project, the authors propose to apply the early and late signs indicated in the article. To save the project, the authors indicate their recommendations, which are to stop and re-plan the project.

In the current era of development, Indonesian companies not only have to compete with domestic companies but face diverse competition from abroad. These conditions have also fueled competition in the industry sector. By maintaining and able to develop the companies, and achieving company goals both management and company leaders are often faced with various problems both technical, administrative and financial. Therefore the company management must take rational decisions and can be accounted for and the decision-maker requires a clear picture of the problems faced by the company. If the company increases the amount of debt as a source of funds it can increase financial risk. If the company cannot manage funds raised from debt productively, it can have a negative effect and have an impact on decreasing company profitability. Conversely, if the debt can be managed well and used for productive investment projects, it can have a positive influence and have an impact on increasing the profitability of companies. Investment in infrastructure is considered that it is one of the best ways to develop money. infrastructure has the opportunity to get a large return on investment.Profitability is the company's ability to make a profit concerning sales, total assets, and own capital (Sartono in Ima Hernawati, 2007). High profitability will illustrate the effectiveness of management in managing the company in generating profits. If the effectiveness and efficiency of capital use can be achieved, then there is a possibility that the company will make a large profit. Liquidity is related to the problem of a company's ability to meet its financial obligations that must be met immediately. The amount of payment instruments (liquid instruments) owned by a company at one time is the paying power of the company concerned. A company that has the power to pay may not be able to fulfill all financial obligations that must be fulfilled immediately or in other words the company may not have the ability to pay. The solvency of a company shows the company's ability to meet all financial obligations if the company is currently liquidated. The definition of solvency is intended as the company's ability to pay all its debts, both long-term and long-term. This research is expected to add insight into the effect of liquidity on profitability in other companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange

A warm welcome to our "World of Difference" to all delegates attending this conference - we hope your stay is enjoyable and that you will leave Central Otago with an enhanced appreciation of the diversity of land use and the resilient and growing economic potential that this region has to offer.

Two key principles that underpin the LTP are sustainability and affordability, with the definition of sustainability being "… development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."

Managing science, which includes managing scientific research and, implicitly, managing scientists, has much in common with managing any enterprise, and most of these issues (e.g. annual budget planning and reporting) form the background. Equally, much scientific research is carried in universities ancient and modern, which have their own mores, ranging from professorial autocracy to democratic plurality, as well as national and international with their missions and styles. But science has issues that require a somewhat different approach if it is to prosper and succeed. Society now expects science, whether publicly or privately funded, to deliver benefits, yet the definition of science presumes no such benefit. Managing the expectations of the scientist with those of society is the challenge of the manager of science. The book addresses some issues around science and the organizations that do science. It then deals with leadership, management and communication, team building, recruitment, motivation, managing scientists, assessing performance, cooperation and competition. This is followed by a discussion of proposal writing and reviewing, committees and meetings, project management, risk and health and safety. Finally, there is a discussion on how to deal with disaster, how to cope with the stresses of management and how to deal with difficult problems.

Based on an original definition of modern populism as “democratic illiberalism” and many years of meticulous research, Takis Pappas marshals extraordinary empirical evidence from Argentina, Greece, Peru, Italy, Venezuela, Ecuador, Hungary, the United States, Spain, and Brazil to develop a comprehensive theory about populism. He addresses all key issues in the debate about populism and answers significant questions of great relevance for today’s liberal democracy, including: • What is modern populism and how can it be differentiated from comparable phenomena like nativism and autocracy? • Where in Latin America has populism become most successful? Where in Europe did it emerge first? Why did its rise to power in the United States come so late? • Is Trump a populist and, if so, could he be compared best with Venezuela’s Chávez, France’s Le Pens, or Turkey’s Erdoğan? • Why has populism thrived in post-authoritarian Greece but not in Spain? And why in Argentina and not in Brazil? • Can populism ever succeed without a charismatic leader? If not, what does leadership tell us about how to challenge populism? • Who are “the people” who vote for populist parties, how are these “made” into a group, and what is in their minds? • Is there a “populist blueprint” that all populists use when in power? And what are the long-term consequences of populist rule? • What does the expansion, and possibly solidification, of populism mean for the very nature and future of contemporary democracy? Populism and Liberal Democracy will change the ways the reader understands populism and imagines the prospects of liberal democracy.

Pharmacists and pharmaceutical technicians play an important role in counselling customers regarding sunscreen use and sun protection measures. A potentially helpful tool that can be used during counselling is the ultraviolet index (UVI), which informs individuals when and what sun protection measures are needed at a specific place and time. Our aim in this qualitative study was to explore awareness, knowledge, and use of the UVI during counselling in pharmacies. We used semi-structured interviews with pharmacists and pharmaceutical technicians (n = 20) to answer our research questions. Interviews were audiotaped, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. During the interviews pharmacists and pharmaceutical technicians revealed a lot of uncertainty and lack of knowledge regarding the UVI. Eight professionals were able to give a correct definition of UVI. Amongst others, the UVI was confused with sun protection factor. Overall, the UVI was hardly used during the counselling of customers. The UVI was developed to provide guidance when which type of sun protection is required to avoid detrimental effects of ultraviolet radiation. For effective implementation, both the general population and health professionals (e.g., pharmacists) have to increase their knowledge about the UVI. This would strengthen its use during professional counselling in pharmacies and may help to reduce the incidence of skin cancer over the long term.
