Loyalty Program: Give Your Business Partners A Gift of Tekedia Mini-MBA

0

It is a TROPHY time: Tekedia Mini-MBA closed a huge deal to offer our training program as a loyalty program to one of the largest telecommunication companies in Africa. The company has sent some staff, and yesterday, each returned “Excellent” on value. And with that, the company approved. The structure is simple: they will prepay for hundreds of seats, and as their partners meet KPIs and milestones, they will activate the reward benefits. Tekedia Institute will handle the training.

As the season of giving arrives, do not send baskets of candies; send a Tekedia Mini-MBA seat for Knowledge. Most would appreciate that – teach a woman or man how to fish!

Human Productivity Innovation At Tekedia Institute

0

We had a great academic excursion by Dr. Dotun Jegede this morning. It was on the mechanics of career planning and resilience as part of Tekedia Career Week. In his presentation, he took us to a deep hypothesis on productivity, organizational mission and how human talent drives the management of  factors of production for success in firms. We report that Tekedia Institute Mini-MBA will offer a course on Human Productivity Innovation, taking those hypotheses in empirical ways to help companies advance.

“One More Thing”: Apple Announces Nov 10 Event

0
An Apple leader

Just when we think the year is over for tech big shows, Apples said there is “One More Thing.” That’s the title of the next Apple event scheduled for 10 am PST, Nov. 10.

The event will focus on the unveiling of Apple silicon Macs. As expected, the “One More Thing event” will be held virtually as it is a custom in the era of COVID-19.

But as noted by TechCrunch, the pandemic has afforded companies the ability to break these spotlight events up more than in pre-COVID years. After all, it is easier to organize than conventional gathering. You ask reporters to join the event online, or you ask analysts to follow the link.

The shift to virtual life has given Apple the opportunity to hold three successive events in a short period with no hitches.

The first Apple event focused on the new Apple Watch and ipads, the second was about iphones, while the third is going to be about the Mac.

The Nov. 10 event will likely be about the release date of the macOS Big Sur, along with the unveiling of Macs built around the company’s priority ARM-based processor.

Apple had announced it’s parting ways with Intel in the WWDC in late June, to develop its own ARM-based processors. It was unusual for the company to make an announcement of new technology it is working on before it arrives. But as TechCrunch reported, it was a strategy to get developers on board with the shift, prior to retail availability.

“From the beginning, the Mac has always embraced big changes to stay at the forefront of personal computing. Today we’re announcing our transition to Apple silicon, making this a historic day for the Mac,” Tim Cook said during the announcement. “With its powerful features and industry-leading performance, Apple silicon will make the Mac stronger and more capable than ever.”

Up till now, the technology Cook talked about in this announcement has been limited to the realm of development kits. However, the coming event seems to be the profound chance for its unveiling.

Anticipation-fueled rumors have it that the technology the world is about to witness is a new version of the MacBook Air set for a Q4 2020 arrival. Redesigned versions of the MacBook Pro and iMac are reportedly part of the devices in the pipeline.

TechCrunch reported that the November event is notably the last chance to get products announced ahead of the Christmas holiday season. As such, it certainly seems like an opportunity for Apple to launch the long expected products, which include its Tile-like AirTags tracking device and over-ear AirPods Studio headphones.

Apple’s delay in the launch of iphone 12 contributed to its low performance in the Q3, and North America’s low market demand. The company appears to be running to cut itself a slice with early launch in the Q4.

The iPhone 12 now will sell along the new devices that will be launched in the November event, using its 5G ability to entice consumers in the North American market.

“Marketing has ramped up significantly, products are widely available. Promotions are happening. And it’s clear that the top sales initiative in these markets is to push 5G,” said Ryan Reith, analyst with IDC.

The Trump Rally in Nigeria

0

Trump wrote on this video “A parade for me in Nigeria, a great honor!” Yes, I did NOT vote for Mr. Trump because of one thing: his attack on education opportunities which enable minority kids to have college education in Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc is not fair play. Yes, while black kids could need affirmative action to get in, most times, they do not finish bottom of the class.

The Trump Administration is attacking affirmative action policies in unprecedented ways. Kori Cooper shows how these attacks threaten the fundamental human right to equality and education as set forth by the United Nations, and perpetuate White supremacy.

On July 3, 2018, the Trump administration announced that they were repealing pro-affirmative action policies put in place during the Obama administration. In one particular pair of policy guidance documents issued in 2011, the Obama-era Education and Justice Departments informed schools at all levels of education across the country that the Supreme Court has established “the compelling interests” of the states in achieving diversity on the campuses of educational institutions. They concluded that the court “has made clear such steps can include taking account of the race of individual students in a narrowly tailored manner.” The Obama-era policy replaced the Bush administration-era view that discouraged affirmative action. The Bush-era guidance had been removed from the government website during the Obama administration, but has now re-appeared on the US Department of Education website.

If that is the case, it means the system was not fair to them, to have needed help to get in. Removing that protection will stunt a generation of black kids and for that I voted for Biden. In Georgia, we had a black kid who got in via affirmative action but finished top of his class. How is the system fair to him? 

This video is possibly Catholics returning from mass or a meeting. Typically, Catholics in Nigeria are against gay rights, abortion, etc. There is nothing in it. I was in Pope John Paul center Abuja in January: Trump is a demi god there because he fights for unborn kids.  I am a religious conservative but I am more concerned about the education of black kids in America. Trump is making things harder for them!
