What Executives need to know about the fourth industrial revolution

By Mike Grandinetti, Global Professor of Innovation, Entrepreneurship Marketing at Hult International Business School (MBA, Yale) Business Disruption is not new. We’ve been observing its effects for decades. In the U.S., 50% of companies that had previously achieved Fortune 500 status prior to Year 2K have lost that prestigious designation. How Industry 4.0 will be a disruptive innovation Since we entered the â€Å"Era of Accelerated Disruption† beginning in 2006, executives now understand just how powerful and relentless this trend has become. With the introduction of the iPhone, Facebook and Uber, GitHub, Palantir and Hadoop—all within a two year period—we reached an inflection point, driving an accelerated rate of change. Each of these technologies has had massive disruptive power. As a result, Blackberry, Nokia, Yahoo!, and countless others now, or soon will, appear in the â€Å"Financial Obituaries†. It’s the issue that keeps executives awake at night. Today, we’re approaching an even more significant inflection point. Additive manufacturing, robotics, VR/AR, UAVs and driverless vehicles capture the public imagination, but their disruptive power is poorly understood by the majority of senior executives. As the 4th industrial revolution spreads globally, we’ll see business disruption accelerate faster than can be imagined. It is certain to be the most disruptive period in the history of business. Major threats facing Executives from the Cloud and CyberSecurity Disrupt or be disrupted. Business as usual leads to certain failure. Leaders must take a comprehensive, adaptive, and courageous approach in order to thrive in the Industry 4.0 Era, especially when it comes to harnessing the pervasive presence and power of the Cloud and the escalating challenges and threats around CyberSecurity. Executives must realize that: the Cloud literally connects everything, from traditional connected devices such as smart phones, tablets, and servers, to Industry 4.0 technologies such as sensors, robots, 3D printers, and â€Å"smart† cars; as a result, there has been a huge shift in the â€Å"intelligence† of these hyper-connected devices, where they can increasingly â€Å"think† on their own. This has driven the shift from the era of programmable computers to the era of cognitive, connected devices. Similar to Metcalfe’s Law, the value of this hyper-connected Cloud grows at a rate proportional to the square of the number of connected devices, dramatically amplifying the power of each connected device individually and the entire â€Å"Cloud† collectively. Business models that leverage the flow of real-time intelligence through the Cloud will dominate: Think of Tesla’s â€Å"recall†Ã¢â‚¬â€which only required a software update sent to all of their vehicles around the globe to instantaneously fix a problem with their vehicles’ low ground clearance—radically different than that of Toyota or GM, who have to have every single car brought to a dealer for physical repair and service. Similar to the war on terror, the CyberWar will be ongoing. It’s the cost of living in a hyper-connected, â€Å"always on† world. The Internet Storm Center identifies new security threats daily—and this trend is only going to accelerate. For example, the exponential rise of ransomware attacks has grown, partly because of the emergence of crypto-currencies like Bitcoin, which enable the Cyber Thief to remain anonymous. Persistent vigilance will be required to protect customer privacy, organizational IP, business processes, and trade secrets. The U.S.’s approach to Technology 4.0 The US approach relies on the private sector to invest in innovation. Privately funded investments include: Corporate RD: internal investments in new technologies Corporate MA: acquisitions of startups Open Innovation: collaboration through hackathons, open source projects, etc. Early Stage Venture Capital: investing in entrepreneurs Corporate RD investments Uber Advanced Technology Group (ATG). It focuses on self-driving technologies, mapping, and vehicle safety, with a mandate to develop long-term technologies that advance Uber’s mission of bringing safe, reliable transportation to everyone, everywhere. GE’s RD Lab in Niskayuna, NY, focuses on additive manufacturing. 3D Printing has radically transformed the time it takes for GE to manufacture jet engines, enabling them to create and test many iterations of critical jet engine parts in two weeks, vs. the previous two-plus years. Corporate MA Uber acquired  autonomous vehicle driverless truck startup Otto for $680 million, as they continue to move beyond their core ride-sharing market. GE acquired 3D Printing companies SLM Solutions Group and Arcam AB for a combined value of $1.5B USD. Open Innovation Uber partnered with global auto-makers Toyota, Volvo, and Ford to develop driverless technology. GE runs hackathons to invent and design new products, supplementing the work of its own engineering teams, attracting hundreds to thousands of global applicants. Corporate and Traditional Venture Capital GE Ventures invests in Cloud Infrastructure, the Data Value Chain, Cyber Security startups. They first invested in, and then GE acquired, startups Bit Stew Systems and Wise.io to expand its Predix platform for industrial internet applications.

The Color Purple follows the traumatic life experience of Celie, the main character in the movie, a young African-American woman. She was raised in the rural parts in Georgia and grew up thinking that someone had to have power over her because of the position of her father. Her father was a man that thought that women had to do whatever ever to please him and satisfy all of his needs. Don’t waste time! Our writers will create an original "The Color Purple Gender Roles" essay for you Create order This left no exception to his daughter, Celie, who was repeatedly raped by her father, and ends up giving birth to two kids at a very young age because of it. Her father takes the kids away because he doesnt want anyone to know what was going on and because if someone knew his daughter had been pregnant, he wouldnt be able to marry her off. Celie has a sister named Nettie who the father seems to protect and care for more because when a man comes to marry her, the father urges him to take Celie instead. This situation was no better for Celie because if it wasnt the same it was worse than her being abused by her father. exploitation. Celie writes letter to God and explains to him all the details of her life because she feels like nobody else is listening. Her father always told her to tell nobody but God and that stuck with her through all of her tragedies and triumphs because she was able to get through it that way. But throughout the movie Celie meets women who all have very different personalities and ways that they deal with the men in their life. By building these relationships with other black women, Celie gets strength and is able to develop insight from all of their point of views. In the end she gets to develop a sense of her own right knowing who she is and what it means to be a woman. She is able to grow her own values and understand what her experiences have done for her and how they shaped who she was able to be. It allowed her to see that she was independent and didnt need a man to take care of her or provide for her. In the film, the gender roles are shown very clearly. The males in this film are shown as having the most power and being the leader of the household and controlling everything. They dont do work, are very dominant and show no affection of care. They have the most control over the women in the film because they show them as bowing down to the men as a sign of respect. The women in the film are seen as obedient and submissive and someone without a voice. We see this with Celie because she is given away as a piece of property to her husband Albert, who is referred to as Mr., without any consent or choice in the matter. She becomes a slave to her husband and has to stay in line with his views or else she would be severely beaten and punished. Celie has lost all of her freedom through this and we see this because when Mr. wants to have sex, even if Celie does not, she is forced to do so. Celie is talked down to and seen as small by all the men in her life. She is supposed to do everythin g from the cooking, cleaning, tending to children, working in the fields, and is still seen as less to a man. There are other characters in this movie that challenge their gender roles. The first one that we notice is between Harpo and Sofias relationship. We get to see a big difference in this relationship the what we see in Celie and Albert. Sophia is not the norm when it comes to marrying Harpo and he begins to clearly see this after they are married. She shows that women can be powerful and dominant in a relationship and that there should be a balance. Sophia is not one that can be bossed around and states how she will always make her own decisions. She will not be the wife that listens and does whatever Harpo has to say. She wanted to feel respected by her husband and she wants Harpo to talk and share ideas with her. Sophia and Harpo get into a fight and Sophia actually wins the fight. This is different because he is he man, and his wife is fighting him back and now he feels like less of a man and we can see that Sophia is very clear that she wont back down to bow down. In the end, Har po is the one that changes and is he is doing all of the things which are normally left for the woman to do and he is accepting of this. He came around and understood that it was okay to not have that dominant power but to be equals and that he doesnt need to conform to the general standards of their society. Because of the disruption of traditional gender roles in the film The Color Purple, we see a lot of growth in the women that are presented throughout the movie. We get an understanding on how they are being oppressed and how they can overcome it. It shows a lot of female solidarity because a lot of the women lean on each other in the movie for advice and companionship and through their experiences they are able to grow and unify as women. These women are looked as lesser than their male counters, but we see just how strong they are. They fight for their freedom and I think that is the best thing about the movie because they do it together with each others guidance and support. In the end, the movie came full circle with the women being strong and independent. The women were able to celebrate what it meant to be a female. It showed how their experiences developed and guided their emotional strength and how they were able to take control of their life. The movie challenged the traditional female and male roles and it showed how women can be the provider and men can let their female partner show masculine characteristics and it not be something that isnt accepted by society. This movie showed the parallels between the third wave of feminism. It was able to show how African American women were rooted in their culture, religion, and history. It showed how there was growth in the movement but that there is still working to be done so that women arent seen as objects that are weak, but very strong. I think The Color Purple showed many different parallels to gender roles that are traditional today and some that arent. It also suggested many ideas that gave the viewer insight on what it means to be a male and what it means to be a female. It gave clear views on what society views as what is acceptable and is normal, but it also showed what we might need to think twice about and what we should change. As a viewer, I enjoyed this film becau se it showed no matter what gender you are, you deserve equality.

Breast cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the tissue of the breast and spread to the surrounding area of the breast.

Scientists then decided to test it on cancer cells and see if it had the same effect. In the article Women’s Health: Cancer Women and Breast Cancer, it addresses the issue of using chemotherapy and how it can improve survival rate. Lippman wrote: Chemotherapy is indicated and will dramatically improve survival for young women with positive lymph nodes. Chemotherapy should also be considered for certain women who are lymph nodes negative and who are under 50. There are major benefits for these women. For women who are over 50, the anti-estrogen tamoxifen is clearly associated with an improvement in survival, and the consensus panel concluded that chemotherapy should be considered for women who are over 50 and who have lymph node involvement with breast cancer.

Cuban Missle Crisis Essay, Research Paper Nikita Khrushchev and the Cuban Missile Crisis The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 was the closest the universe of all time came to all-out atomic war. When the Soviet Union placed violative atomic missiles in Cuba, President Kennedy interpreted the act as one of ill will that would non be tolerated. However, the state of affairs was blown manner out or proportion by the president, American media, and finally the citizens of the United States. The Soviet Premier, Nikita Khrushchev, was responding to the Bay of Pigs Invasion of Cuba, US Missile installings along the Turkey/Soviet boundary line, and the clear anti-Communist policy of the United States. Khrushchev was born in Kalinovka in southwesterly Russia. He was raised in a hapless household whose income depended entirely on the coal mining occupation of his male parent.

He gained much congratulations and advanced rapidly. By 1939, he was a member of the Politburo. He became Secretary of the of the Central Committee in 1951. After Stalin died in 1953, the USSR went through two more Prime Ministers before Khrushchev came to power in 1958. As Premier, Khrushchev publically condemned the panic filled reign of Stalin. Stalin continually pushed for domination. Several Eastern European states united with the USSR under Stalin s reign and 1000000s of guiltless people were slain. Stalin besides restricted Soviet citizens personal autonomies to antecedently unheard of steps. Khrushchev was a wholly different swayer. He acridly criticized Stalin s offenses against humanity and began a rapid procedure known as de-Stalinization. This entailed destructing statues, images, or images of Stalin and renaming most things antecedently named for Stalin. Khrushchev besides restored many of the p ersonal autonomies that Stalin had taken off. He allow political captives free, restored much freedom of idea, and restored freedom of the imperativeness. He increased production in mills and placed a strong accent on the Soviet infinite plan. Although he had small commiseration for little, weak Europe and Asiatic states, he worked to avoid war with Western states. He even called for a peaceable coexistence with the United States. Khrushchev, despite being communist, was concerned for the public assistance of his state and did non desire war with the United States. Despite his desire to avoid struggle with the western universe, Khrushchev was faced with an aggressive United States authorities, and had to move consequently. The Bay of Pigs invasion was a premier illustration. This open military action took topographic point when the CIA funded a paramilitary force of Rebel Cubans to occupy Cuba and overthrow Castro. Kennedy refused to give the invasion strong American military force so it finally failed, therefore going a great embarrassment to the United States. Not merely was it an unbelievable failure and embarrassment, but it was besides a US sponsored military offense against Cuba, a communist state and Soviet ally. It was a challenge to the authoritiess of both the Soviet Union and Cuba. In add-on to the onslaught on Cuba, Khrushchev was besides faced with US missile installings in Turkey and Italy that posed a serious menace to the Soviet Union. The installings in Turkey were less than 150 stat mis from the Soviet boundary line. The installings here were MRBMs, Medium-Range Ballistic Missiles, and were about indistinguishable to the missiles Khrushchev had installed in Cuba. He was simply seeking to forestall the US from deriving the upper manus in a power battle, which could hold meant serious disaste r for the Soviets. Khrushchev, just like Kennedy and the rest of the United States, didn t want the enemy to gain a nuclear advantage. He was trying to protect his country and prevent nuclear disaster. The hysteria created in the United States as a result of the Soviet installations was immense. The US media was calling Khrushchev s actions aggressive and people began to panic. Kennedy and his advisors were debating whether or not to invade Cuba to destroy the missiles (which would have meant war), or to negotiate with Khrushchev. The situation was turned into a crisis. Khrushchev sent his first of two letters to Kennedy on October 24, 1962 in which he explained his reasons for installing the missiles. He said that the action was not aggressive, and that they would remove them immediately if the US missiles in Turkey were dismantled and Kennedy publicly promised not to invade Cuba. The fact that Khrushchev wanted the Turkey missiles dismantled was hidden from the American public fo r several years, making Khrushchev look much more militant than he truly was. Kennedy still debated with his brother, Robert, and Vice President Johnson for a few days. They decided not to heed to the Soviet demands and waited instead. In the meantime a U-2 plane was shot down over Cuba as it was surveying the missiles, suggesting that Khrushchev might be aggressive. However, planes were continually flying over Cuba, posing a threat to the Cubans and Soviets. Kennedy decided not to retaliate but voiced that if another plane was shot down, we would invade Cuba. Khrushchev wrote another letter on October 26 reiterating that they would quickly dismantle the Cuban Missiles if the US would publicly promise not to invade Cuba and if they would dismantle their missiles in Turkey. Again, Kennedy delayed and did not respond to Khrushchev. Kennedy merely said that the US blockade would be lifted if the missiles were taken out. On October 28, Khrushchev agreed and ordered the missiles to be re moved. The Cuban Missile Crisis was over. What happened here is easily understood in retrospect. The US had outlined a clear Anti-Communism policy through the Korean War, Bay of Pigs invasion, and missile installations in Europe. Khrushchev didn t want to jeopardize the safety of his country so decided to install missiles in Cuba to protect the Cubans and the USSR The US media along with the government, did not inform the public of the installations in Turkey or Khrushchev s offer to remove the missiles if the US missiles were also removed. This created intense public opposition to the Soviet leader as he was made out to be much more militant than he actually was. He was simply fighting fire with fire, but the government and media prevented the public from having the truth. It looks almost like a blatant attempt to manipulate the American public by over-dramatizing a situation for which US government was predominately responsible. Kennedy threatened invasion and he would have had su pport of the entire nation if he had proceeded with this plan. Khrushchev obviously didn t want war as he eventually agreed to remove the missiles and allow the US to have a nuclear advantage. Why would Khrushchev agree to remove the missiles without any US promise to remove their missiles or not to invade Cuba? The answer is obvious. Khrushchev did not want war with the United States. He was a vast improvement over Stalin as a Premier and had restored much freedom to his country. He wasn t a mad killer like Stalin and simply wanted to protect the citizens of his country, unlike Stalin had. The US government, however, wanted the media and public to think otherwise. They succeeded.
