Agile approaches emphasize delivering business value to stakeholders. The concept of business value is a difficult concept to get your arms around, doubly so if you are working in a Not for Profit. One way to address the problem is to see the idea of business value for what it is – an aid for making decisions. In this talk Kent McDonald describes three simple techniques that you can use to make decisions in your Not For Profit. Kent describes how to apply the idea of business value to not for profits and shows how you can use three techniques – Real Options, Decision Filters, and Purpose Based Alignment to make decisions in any kind of organization, even Not for Profits.

- 19. Student Information System Yes, it has been abbreviated to “SIS”
- 20. SIS “Requirements” In search of a "Student Information System" that will be used to manage student and parent data, enable interactive communication between teachers and parents, as well as online enrollments. Requirements: Student/Parent Directory Staff Directory Calendar Online Enrollment Parent/Classroom Portal

- I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description ["hard-core pornography"]; and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it, and the motion picture involved in this case is not that. [Emphasis added.] ” — Justice Potter Stewart, concurring opinion in Jacobellis v.

- I had the option at staying at this hotel last night. The hotel had the commitment to provide me a room.I always pay a little bit more for the ability to cancel my reservation, usually up until 6 the night of the reservation instead of buying the lower, nonrefundable rate up front.
- Image source: http://www.flickr.com/photos/msh-images/2057924535/sizes/l/A case where the time to decide was quite clear occurred on the flight of Friendship 7, John Glenn’s Mercury flight in February of 1962. The flight was planned for three orbits. At the end of the first orbit, Mission Control was just about to patch John F. Kennedy through to John Glenn when Mission Control received a “Segment 51” warning and John Glenn began having altitude control problems. Mission Control told the President that they were a little busy at the moment and would have to call him back. The team then turned to figuring out what Segment 51 indicated.Segment 51 is meant to indicate that the landing bag had deployed. The landing bag is a rubber bag that inflated on the Mercury capsule following reentry which prevented the capsule from sinking when it landed in the ocean for recovery. The landing bag was situated behind the heat shield which is what protected the Mercury capsule from the intense heat of reentry. If the landing bag had truly deployed, that also meant that the heat shield had been pried loose from the capsule, which was not a good thing for John Glenn. Basically it meant that if they were to believe what the data was telling them, the Mercury Capsule could burn up during reentry.Mission Control immediately began reviewing their options. As it turned out, the Mercury Capsule had a retropack strapped on to the bottom of the capsule that fired three rockets to slow the capsule into a reentry velocity and then was jettisoned before the capsule entered the atmosphere. The retropack was attached to the capsule by three metal straps and if left on would theoretically hold the heat shield on during the crucial point of reentry. But Mission Control was not sure if the retropack burning up would also cause damage to the heat shield. They also weren’t sure whether the Segment 51 alert was actually valid. Some on the team thought the issue was actually an electrical issue, basically a false alarm.With two orbits left, Mission Control began a series of activities at once. Some controllers began working to determine tests that they could perform to determine whether the indicator was an electrical issue or if the heat shield had actually dislodged. Others started working trying to figure out what would happen if the retropack stayed attached to the capsule, and still others were figuring out how the reentry procedures needed to change if in fact they decided to leave the retropack on. All the while, no decisions had been made whether to leave the retropack on, Mission Control in fact had two more orbits to figure that out, and they were using every bit of that time to explore their options, and gather their information to help make their decision.Chris Kraft, the flight director for the mission was convinced that the problem was an electrical issue, and stalled making the decision to leave the retropack on until the last moment so that he could have as much information as possible:“Kraft was still holding out until the last moment, so that he had a complete understanding of the final instructions before he radioed up to John Glenn. The mission was turning into a horse race. Kraft wanted answers from one final test to be performed over Hawaii before he turned the discussion to the entry procedure modifications.” Failure is Not an Option p.74Finally after hearing that the retropack rockets fired and were not a risk to explode during reentry, Walter Williams, the Operations Director and Kraft’s boss made the decision to leave the retropack on at the point in time where Mission Control and John Glenn had enough time to alter the reentry procedure to not jettison the retropack.When Glenn reentered the atmosphere, the retropack burned up, followed by the heat shield sufficiently protecting Glenn from the heat of reentry. After Glenn landed and analysis was done on the recovered capture, it was determined that the Segment 51 reading was invalid.
- By driving investment across the pipeline, we see a cascade of progress that will unfold over the next 20 years or so. With JDRF funding, these research programs are translating our mission of less until none in to tangible therapies and advancements including:Progressive elimination of blood glucose testing and automation of insulin delivery through a series of artificial pancreas systems, beginning today with systems that prevent hypoglycemia and continuing on to a multihormone, fully closed-loop systemAbility to identify those most at risk for developing complications of T1D and therefore most in need of early screening and aggressive treatmentSecondary prevention therapies that slow or halt the progression of T1D before insulin dependence in those who are in earlier stages of the autoimmune attackAn implantable, islet cell replacement therapy that restores insulin independence through the use of a permeable barrier to protect the islets and that eliminates the need for immune suppression, allowing the new cells to produce insulin as neededGlucose responsive insulin that supports a single shot of insulin per day/week, working in the body only as neededPrimary prevention through universal childhood immunization that eliminates the possibility of developing T1DRegenerating the body’s own islets while preventing the re-attack of the immune system, thus restoring the body to normal glucose controlThis is view of the future…and some if this is happening now.
