The world is on the peak of its saddest moments in history with the emergence of COVID -19, which has caused crisis and suffering in the health sector. Since its advent, the disease has spread human suffering, led to several deaths, and has also upended the lives of people. While the majority of people have deemed the impact of the disease more of health-related, the effects of the disease have spread to other areas of life such as human, economic and social (He & Lloyd, 35). Since its day of emergence, the disease has attacked the societies to the core and has continued to establish its influence and severe effects on many areas of social life.

Environmental Issues, Data Security, and Government Regulations in Business Question 1 Organizations have a crucial role to play in the protection of the environment. Companies instigate numerous changes to the environment due to their business operations. Specifically, manufacturing companies use resources from the environment and release effluents and waste into the environment. For a mid-size manufacturer, the best approach to the environment and sustainability is to accelerate and innovate. The accelerate and innovate attitude is mainly dependent on technological advancements. Advances in technology can be adopted to protect nature and the environment. Technology can be exploited to improve the production processes of the manufacturing firm to ensure that environmental protection is enhanced. The manufacturing company should focus on pushing for innovation to address the environmental issues that are existent in the business world. The adoption of discoveries would reduce the current extent of degradation to the environment (Saylor, 2012). The adoption of innovative methods by the manufactures would be ideal in diminishing the emission of pollutants as an integral way of promoting the protection of the environment. Furthermore, corporate social…

Relevancy of the CCM Model to this Study (Liz Lyon, 2012) explains the CCMF as enabling researchers, institutions, and research funders to build their institutions’ capacity to carry out data-intensive research. With this understanding, the essence of institutional capacities correlates to different data lifecycle levels, which is central in research data management. Variables such as skills and training, openness, legal and policy guidelines, technology and infrastructure, and collaborative partnerships have a defining role in research data management. This framework confers details on the responsibilities and requirements of different capabilities for improved and efficient research data management. This framework concentrates on technology and infrastructure integration on every institutional capability because of digital research growth, a data-intensive aspect of higher learning entities.

Different scholars have used this model not only to plan and assess data management practices and activities, for example (Crownston, 2012), but also to investigate the needs for research data management support in academic libraries when introducing a new multi-faceted capability tool…

Reply to Gabby Hello Gabby, I took the time to read through your discussion post. I concur that accountability, financial status, and reliability are the three primary legal considerations to consider when forming a strategic alliance with a supplier. For instance, the accountability legal consideration should include the nondisclosure agreement that protects the confidential information for both parties involved. The financial status legal consideration may entail the evaluation agreement that assesses the parties’ financial capability and fitness to form a strategic alliance. The reliability concept in legal consideration may involve issues brought up by the letter of intent as it defines the scope of discussions between the parties. Also, I agree that the ethical considerations when forming a strategic alliance with a supplier must involve how the other party treats its employees. Besides, it is essential to know if a company can trust a supplier on the delivery of top-notch and quality products or services on time. It is the responsibility of all organizations to maintain environmental safety by being environmentally sustainable and also socially sustainable by promoting local development…

  Science fiction story or movie Science fiction story or movie is a field of notional fiction that normally deals with futuristic and imaginative theories such as progressive science and technology, time travel, space exploration, extraterrestrial life, and parallel universes. Authors in this genre present literature of thoughts and usually explore the possible consequences of social, scientific, and technological innovations. Despite presenting ideas in different ways, Ray Bradbury and Dean Koontz are still considered science and fiction authors for several reasons. Looking at their stories, their settings, their characters, their plots, and their conflicts all revolve around science and technology. They have utilized science and technology in facilitating the presentation of their ideas. For instance, The Martian Chronicles, written by Ray Bradbury, contains various technological instruments that assist characters in moving from one place to another. In this story, a crazy taxpayer tries to use a rocket to travel to planet mars. Also, the Demon Seeds story written by Dean revolves around a demented machine resembling an entity that dwells in a computer’s brain. The entity takes control of Susan’s…

The process of innovation results in creating new products and services; therefore, improve organizational competitiveness. Depending on the industry, there is a need to determine the best means for measuring the implemented innovative processes. Consequently, measuring innovation includes the past, present performance, and expected or future innovation potential levels. The first valuable measure of innovation is a project’s risk-adjusted figure for net present value and the possible returns on investment. The management must always endeavor to ensure that their organizational commitments have a longstanding future, based on some valuables such as project viability. If the proposed or current investment is not viable, and its net present value is not encouraging, then the innovation venture should be abandoned. Therefore, a project’s return on investment must always take the shortest period possible (Arshi, 2017). If these determinants are not followed and used in organizational processes, then some of the innovations might be resource consuming but not viable and promising for the firm. The second measure of innovation that should be used is the change in earnings or revenue generation after a new…

Health Care System in the US Pro and Cons of the Current Health Care System Health care delivery has significantly improved in the recent past. Some of the noticeable improvements include easy access to health care and improved public health. In the past, hospitals and health institutions were scarce, but new ones have been built in nearly all parts of the US territory. These hospitals are fully equipped with medical facilities and health professionals. However, patients continue to face challenges while trying to access health care services. Unlike other developed countries, the current health care system in the US is relatively more expensive. Most US citizens are either uninsured or underinsured. Notably, most rural residents have lesser chances of accessing health insurance and are less likely to receive doctor visits. More badly, studies have reported that poor health access has been greatly attributed to racism, socioeconomic circumstance, and immigration status. As a result, there is a great need to develop a new, improved health care system that aims to address these health disparities. Vision and Benefits for the New Health…
