All Services, All the Time : How Business Services Serve Your Business
This book takes the position that organizations, such as businesses, government agencies, etc. form a special class of living system. As such they come into being, live through lifecycle stages, and can experience organizational health and various forms of organizational illness along the way.If the latter is frequent or extended, such organizations often die an untimely death.A services perspective can go a long way to combat this outcome and assist in maintaining organizational health.Allowing this perspective to permeate an organization induces a consideration of its genuine value and leads to a greater understanding of the breadth of stakeholders who are the beneficiaries of it. Productivity and services in an organization are symbiotic—and must be so in order to achieve the balance that is key to the health of each organization.A services perspective illuminates as well the pivotal role that business-to-business service providers play in ensuring that balance is achieved and maintained.This book explores these factors from the point of view of the business leader and anyone concerned with the health of any organization.

Everyone's Business : What Companies Owe Society
Business is political. What are the ethics of it? Businesses are political actors. They not only fund political campaigns, take stances on social issues, and wave the flags of identity groups – they also affect politics in their everyday hiring and investment decisions.As a highly polarized public demands political alignment from the powerful businesses they deal with, what’s a company to do? Amit Ron and Abraham Singer show that the unavoidably political role of companies in modern life is both the fundamental problem and inescapable fact of business ethics: corporate power makes business ethics necessary, and business ethics must strive to mitigate corporate power. Because of its economic and social influence, Ron and Singer forcefully argue that modern business’s primary social responsibility is to democracy.Businesses must work to avoid wielding their power in ways that undermine key democratic practices like elections, public debate, and social movements.Pragmatic and urgent, Everyone’s Business offers an essential new framework for how we pursue profit—and democracy—in our increasingly divided world.

What are similarity ratios?
Similarity ratios are ratios that compare the corresponding sides of two similar figures. They help us understand the relationship between the sides of similar shapes. The ratio of corresponding sides in similar figures is always the same, which means that if you know the ratio of one pair of sides, you can use it to find the ratio of other pairs of sides. Similarity ratios are important in geometry and are used to solve problems involving similar figures.

What is the difference between similarity theorem 1 and similarity theorem 2?
Similarity theorem 1, also known as the Angle-Angle (AA) similarity theorem, states that if two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. On the other hand, similarity theorem 2, also known as the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) similarity theorem, states that if two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and the included angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. The main difference between the two theorems is the criteria for establishing similarity - AA theorem focuses on angle congruence, while SAS theorem focuses on both side proportionality and angle congruence.

How can one calculate the similarity factor to determine the similarity of triangles?
The similarity factor can be calculated by comparing the corresponding sides of two triangles. To do this, one can divide the length of one side of the first triangle by the length of the corresponding side of the second triangle. This process is repeated for all three pairs of corresponding sides. If the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal, then the triangles are similar, and the similarity factor will be 1. If the ratios are not equal, the similarity factor will be the ratio of the two triangles' areas.

How can the similarity factor for determining the similarity of triangles be calculated?
The similarity factor for determining the similarity of triangles can be calculated by comparing the corresponding sides of the two triangles. If the ratio of the lengths of the corresponding sides of the two triangles is the same, then the triangles are similar. This ratio can be calculated by dividing the length of one side of a triangle by the length of the corresponding side of the other triangle. If all three ratios of corresponding sides are equal, then the triangles are similar. This is known as the similarity factor and is used to determine the similarity of triangles.

Local Welfare and the Organization of Social Services : Local Area Planning in the Lombardy Region
This book discusses local area planning in the Lombardy region of Italy.The book provides valuable insights about the development of local welfare systems and the territorial organization of social services through the analysis of the evolution of the Local Area Plan, which lies at the intersection of sub regional governance and of social services delivery models.Using Lombardy as a case study, this brief analyzes the structural conditions influencing the establishment of Local Area Plans, their effect on inter-municipal cooperation, and the need for possible reforms.The book is organized as follows: the first chapter presents a reconstruction of the national and regional framework, analyzing the structure of ties and opportunities within which Local Area Plans are called to act.The second chapter provides a review of the extant literature on Local Area Plans and introduces the theoretical framework used by the volume.The third chapter details legislation introduced in Lombardy to reform the governance structure of Local Area Plans by supporting a process of reorganization and aggregation.The fourth chapter presents some cases of Local Area Plan aggregation.The final chapter presents the conclusion and some brief considerations about the future of social planning.Providing an empirical analysis of local service delivery, this book will be useful to scholars and practitioners interested in public administration, welfare, local government, non-profit and public organizations, and management.

Delivery by Design : Intermunicipal Contracting, Shared Services, and Canadian Local Government
Municipalities in Canada have an array of servicing options available to them when producing or delivering local services, such as water, public transit, and waste collection, including in-house provision or privatization.However, services may also be contracted or jointly-delivered with neighbouring municipalities – a practice some local governments are increasingly gravitating towards. Delivery by Design sheds light on this practice in Canadian local government by examining three crucial questions: Why do municipalities cooperate?What is being shared or contracted with other governments? And what leads to successful or unsuccessful relationships between municipalities?The book finds that Canadian municipalities are cooperating fairly regularly, but are doing so in a small number of policy areas, mainly emergency and administrative services.Zachary Spicer examines these types of relationships, explaining how they will be crucial in the future as local services are increasingly shared or jointly delivered by municipal governments. Relying on extensive data and document collection, surveys, and a series of primary interviews with local decision-makers, Delivery by Design explores the nature of interlocal collaboration in Canada, mapping out a relatively understudied process in local governance.

Recognising and Dealing with Business Distress : Building Resilient Companies
Businesses fail – some spectacularly and suddenly, others more gradually over time.In some companies business decline can be turned around or at least delayed.In many others there is no option other than business closure.Over the past twenty years the rate of business failure has accelerated.Insolvency rates are high not just for small businesses but also for large well known public companies.Identifying possible causes of business distress is now recognised as an important agenda item.Creating the capacity to bounce back from such distress – business resilience – has become a priority. The authors blend their own practical experience, academic research and a systematic analysis of recent high profile cases including Flybe Group Plc, Arcadia Group Ltd, Carillion Plc, NMC Health Plc and Thomas Cook Group Plc in a review of potential causes of business distress and key resilience drivers.This is presented in detail in separate chapters covering business purpose, board effectiveness, the quality of strategic planning, financial stewardship, risk management, business turnaround strategies and director duties in times of business distress.The book sets out a practical benchmarking framework in the form of a toolkit with a series of detailed evidences – performance indicators – that companies can use to assess potential business distress and build a resilient company.

'How do you prove similarity?'
Similarity between two objects can be proven using various methods. One common method is to show that the corresponding angles of the two objects are congruent, and that the corresponding sides are in proportion to each other. Another method is to use transformations such as dilation, where one object can be scaled up or down to match the other object. Additionally, if the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides is equal, then the two objects are similar. These methods can be used to prove similarity in geometric figures such as triangles or other polygons.

What is similarity in mathematics?
In mathematics, similarity refers to the relationship between two objects or shapes that have the same shape but are not necessarily the same size. This means that the objects are proportional to each other, with corresponding angles being equal and corresponding sides being in the same ratio. Similarity is often used in geometry to compare and analyze shapes, allowing for the transfer of properties and measurements from one shape to another.
-
What is the similarity ratio?
The similarity ratio is a comparison of the corresponding sides of two similar figures. It is used to determine how the dimensions of one figure compare to the dimensions of another figure when they are similar. The ratio is calculated by dividing the length of a side of one figure by the length of the corresponding side of the other figure. This ratio remains constant for all pairs of corresponding sides in similar figures.
