Programming comprises of securing in house created programming, redid programming, and pre-bundled programming (Teece, 2017). The research by Kenneth and Jane Laudon proves that information technology does not guarantee good returns by itself because a company’s managerial, social, and organizational assets are also vital in helping the organization optimize the profits from information and communication technology investments.

Comparative Article Williams & Methany and McCloy & Methany The process of education i.e., the delivery of instructions to the learner, is an area of study that has always provoked keen interest among philosophers. There are various stances that the philosophers take, and this could be evidenced in their works, for instance, in “Education through the physical” by Jesse Ferring Williams and “How about some muscle?” by Charles H. McCloy. According to Williams, physical education presents two sets of challenges in its analysis. He observes that two questions are inevitable in trying to understand physical education i.e., whether physical education is an education of the material or and education through the content. His issues tend to take a pluralist stance whereby there is the acknowledgment of many elements in the environment for instance for physical education to occur in whatever setting there must be the aspect of plurality i.e., the transfer of knowledge skills and instructions from one entity to another i.e., the teacher as the facilitator of learning and the learner as the recipient of the instructions. Education of…

The Relationship between Microeconomics and Freakonomics Radio Episodes Freakonomics Radio Podcast is a radio podcast that tells about things that people think they already know and things that people never knew they are important to know but are vital in their lives. The main focus of this essay is to examine the relationship between the microeconomics and the Freakonomics Radio Podcast episodes. In this case, I choose episode 399 with the theme, Honey, I Grew the Economy. The main discussion of this episode revolved around creativity and innovation. The episode reveals that innovation experts have been overlooked for a long time in the areas where innovation happens regularly (Dubner, 2019). The episodes also argue that innovations are not only done in labs and companies but start from individual thinking and then presented in labs and companies for testing their applicability. Erick Von Hippel says that acknowledging this reality will be a very very good move in the economy and also to the innovators. Hippel also elaborates on the process of innovation as aided by the existence of other things. “People…

Significance of Gender in Entrepreneurship Introduction The issue of gender in the business world, more so in entrepreneurship, is one of the core topics in most discussions globally. In the recent past, men were the kingpins in entrepreneurship whereas women comprised of a lesser percentage as compared to them. According to a report filed by the economist Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 2016, the masculine gender was averagely 1.8 times more likely to have a self-employment than the female gender. in comparison, female-owned businesses lack the orientation of swift growth and creation of employment for others since they operate smaller businesses than men. The gender gap in entrepreneurship creates a threat in the business world; therefore, the issue needs to be addressed to create an equal and non-gender bias entrepreneurial environment for all. Generally, extensive research and study reveal that gender perception of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial intentions are the core causes of the gender gap in entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is human universal; that is, any individual ready to fill a gap in the society through entrepreneurship can actualize…

THE BLUE SWEATER BOOK REVIEW The Blue Sweater an inspiring book by Jacqueline Novogratz, which addresses severe development issues through the writer’s personal life experiences and adventures. The book brings out new ideas, innovations, and strategies that solve the global problem concerning poverty, which even charitable organizations have not adequately addressed it. It shows how compassionate actions that are done by someone can have a significant impact on the needy. Jacqueline left her lucrative profession in international banking. She went on a mission to have a firsthand understanding of poverty and, after that, develop a workable solution to empower underprivileged communities in the world (Novogratz, 2010). The story behind the title of the book is impressive because, in chapter 1, Jacqueline recounts her blue sweater, which was a gift she valued and treasured while she was still back at home in Virginia. When she grew, and the sweater could no longer fit her, she disposes it and thinks that she will never see it again. Surprisingly, Jacqueline saw the same garment ten years later when in Rwanda. It happened one…
