I just got home from back surgery where I spent 4 days in the hospital to start the recovery process. I was able to have some really good conversations with the nurses that were caring for me.
First off, the hospital was empty (in Alaska).
I asked one nurse if I could ask a few questions that I just needed answers for.
First, ‘Do masks do an
Maintaining a reliable business is a complex process. In the digital transformation scenario, in fact, thinking about security and risk management together is critical. After all, there is no way to guarantee the reliability of internal routines without IT solutions guaranteeing the company's privacy.
Going together, security and risk management policies can reduce failures, improve internal processes, and ensure that solutions such as ERP are present in more locations. In other words, the compa
Financial crisis, adverse supply shock, technological disruption, or natural hazards and disasters significantly affect global businesses. Recessions caused by these global incidents and problems have serious outcomes on commodity prices, stock markets, economies, and even countries.

Enrique Suarez’s Answers to Mr. Stephen Hawking’s Comments about the Long-term Future of the Human Race
I wrote this Article Back in 2017
Stephen Hawking: “I believe that the long-term future of the human race must be in space. It will be difficult enough to avoid disaster on planet Earth in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand, or million. The human race shouldn't have all its eggs in one basket, or on one planet. Let's hope we can avoid dropping the basket until we have spread the
At times, meds are more dangerous than diseases they’re supposed to protect against or cure.
Independent experts agree that all vaccines are hazardous to human health because they contain mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, phenoxyethanol (antifreeze), and other toxins able to weaken and potentially destroy the human immune system.
Noted vaccine expert Dr. Viera

The estimates are meaningless. The figures have been hyped to justify the lockdown and the closure of the national economy, with devastating economic and social consequences. The Virus is held responsible for poverty and mass unemployment.

If we step back from the details of daily headlines around the world and try to make sense of larger patterns, the dominant dynamic defining world geopolitics in the past three years or more is the appearance of a genuine irregular conflict between the two most formidable powers on the planet—The P
My stats guru colleague Dr Andrew Pratley and I are on the move to tackle Quantifornication, the plucking of numbers out of thin air. Last week was supposed to be our final blog we are co-writing but we couldn’t resist sneaking in another one after the great response from our last one.
Last week we wrote about the concept of directionality, taking what you know having applied the three-question framework and testing with more data to gain even more certainty of your decisions. We defined directio

Cost-based Pricing is fast becoming a relic of the past and being substituted by the concept of Target Costing. Target Costing is referred to as an organized process to determine the cost at which a proposed product must be developed so as to generate profits at the product’s anticipated selling price in future.
In highly competitive markets such as FMCG, construction, healthcare, and energy, prices are determined by market forces. Producers cannot effectively control selling prices. The only

First, I wanted to share an extract from the book I am reading at the moment
