given to the role of innovation in terms of economic growth. The reasons behind is that sustainable innovation will play a major role determining the future economic growth of a country. The governments of different countries having realized that accelerated the policy efforts which are focused to strengthen the national innovation systems. From my opinion government should play an active role to assist the sustainable innovation. To assist the process of sustainable innovation the government should
laboratories, Universities, companies and national health institutes, creating an intersection between regional systems of innovation (Medellin Ruta N), health clusters and a the technological systems of innovation for the vaccine technology, crossing geographical boundaries. Also nationals systems of innovation have an effect over the results that we are looking today. In this essay I pretend to describe how has been the intersection of 4 innovation systems; national, regional, sectorial and technological
Practice The framework for innovation systems consists of four components. Described in Davila, Epstein, & Shelton (2013), these components are inputs, processes, outputs, and outcomes. Inputs includes people, money, culture as well as motivation. Processes include are the actual execution of the inputs. Outputs are the results of the innovation business model and finally, the outcomes is the actual value for the organization as a result of incorporating the innovation system. PepsiCo is a Fortune
Tenet Healthcare: Corporate Innovation Innovation is an integral part of any successful business entity. Innovation involves building a creativity culture, developing new business models, installing new technologies, and most importantly, innovative leaders (Davila, Epstein, & Shelton, 2013). The new, unstable and highly competitive healthcare environment requires innovative leadership to become successful in the effective execution of innovative practices. Davila, Epstein, & Shelton, (2013) describe
policies and governance contexts. For centuries, the villagers have produced porcelain pottery such as bowls and cups for household uses in small producers’ cluster groups under a collectivized structure introduced by the government under the socialist system in the 1970s. The village administration is in charge of the production planning of the ceramics of each producers and sales to the state-owned shops all over Vietnam. Ceramics production was not lucrative as it provided stable, yet low income and
for breakthrough innovations. Andrew Hargadon, a professor at University of California-Davis, composed Breakthroughs from his Ph.D. research on technological innovation, and on the information he collected from his engineering employment at IDEO and Apple computer, two highly innovative companies in the market even today. The book discusses the theoretical framework and opens the mind to the innovation process by elaborating on an assortment of strategies for managing innovations in different levels
The Florida Catastrophic Planning (FLCP) Initiative was conducted under the auspices of the National Catastrophic Planning Process (CPP), as mandated by the Homeland Security Act of 2002, which was amended by the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2007. The Act of 2007 expanded the roles and responsibilities of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in preparing for catastrophes as a result of the dismal response to Hurricane Katrina (Ruback et al., 2010). FEMA was given

Having a basic understanding of community or national emergency plans can assist families in disaster. This is especially true during the response phase. The National Response Framework (NRF) is a great example of a national community reference. According to FEMA’s publication, “The National Response Framework,” from 2013, the NRF is a guide which describes the basis of national response to any form of disaster. The NRF was developed from a long line of response guidance plans. The first was the

This includes the activation of incident command systems (ICS). This is a tool used for command, control and coordination of emergency response. It is also a set of personnel, policies, procedures, and facilities that can be integrated into a common organized group to improve emergency response operations
any location within their jurisdiction. Local agencies are responsible to properly prepare for, mitigate and respond to both man-made and natural disasters. Emergency responders and their agencies should follow the guidelines of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) in order to be best prepared for response to the next disaster whether natural or man-made. NIMS provides agencies with extensive guidelines to attain preparedness that apply to all disasters including terrorist attacks. Agencies
The National Incident Management System is a dynamic shift that has kept systems, which are proactive in offering guidance to all departments and agencies within the government and the non-governmental organizations. In addition, it aids the private sector by equipping them on how to manage incidents as a team effort involving all threats notwithstanding the cause, the size or location of the incidents. The National Incident Management System has a big role to play in the current state whereby our
The National Incident Management System (NIMS) incorporates a comprehensive and standardized framework that is flexible and easily applicable across a full range of possible incident. The ability of being flexible doesn’t limit how the incident is managed based on the size, location, or complexity of the situation. When agencies and departments incorporate NIMS, the ability of multi-jurisdictional coverage for an incident is feasible and it allows personnel to prepare, prevent, respond to, recover
or life-threatening event. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) and Incident Command System (ICS) are two systems used by United States government to respond to emergencies and disasters. “The NIMS is a system designed for disaster management and coordination management during any event” (FEMA 2015). NIMS was created and designed after the “terrorist attacks against the World Trade Center, which occurred on September 11th, 2001” (FEMA). The ICS is a system designed to “manage personnel through

(Firehouse.com/worcester May 2002) This research will discuss the importance of operating within the incident command system, the importance of an accountability system, crew integrity, rapid intervention teams and the use of thermal imaging cameras, and operations at abandoned occupancies. The first report of the fire was made by an off-duty police officer who was passing by. The officer
The History and Impact of the Incident Command System The intensity and complexity of managing incidents always has, and will continue to be, in a constant state of change and this change must be accounted for. For decades, emergency responders and preparedness planners struggled with a growing need to involve multiple agencies in responding to disasters/incidents. The need for a single standard incident management system became necessary to ensure all parties involved were able to understand the
method used to determine where your equine is and if they have any diseases is a Radio Frequency Identification Microchip or an RFID. This kind of microchip is an identification method that has been researched by the National Animal Identification System. It establishes a nationwide system to identify horses and their locations. They are also the same kind of microchips that are used in dogs and cats. These microchips are cylinder-type devices that are implanted by a hypodermic needle. The microchips
Campus Emergency Response: Over the past several years, there has been a rise in critical incidents on our college and university campuses, which has forced administrators to reevaluate the need to have effective campus safety. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) was developed by the Department of Homeland Security in March 2004 to “provide a systematic, proactive approach for all government agencies at all levels, nongovernment organizations, and private sector to work seamlessly to prevent
public health and medical emergencies, and other incidents requiring an emergency response.” A thorough development of an Airport Emergency Plan (AEP) is needed to respond to these incidents while using the National Incident Management System (NIMS). NIMS Branches and Utilization Within the NIMS system, incident commanders
the United States, a community’s emergency management system is expected to implement adequate security measures to effectively protect the public from natural disasters and resolve terrorist attacks. As such, the Incident Command System (ICS) creates a uniform methodology and principles in response to on-scene emergencies managed by the public and private sector for single or multiple incidents. In addition, the National Incident Management System (NIMS) model expands the concept at a countrywide level
