The Rhode Island Truth-O-Meter
"New England already has access to ample supplies of natural gas."
— Jack Reed on Thursday, November 4th, 2010 in a letter to a Senate committee
Senator Reed says New England has ample supplies of natural gas
By Peter Lord on Sunday, January 23rd, 2011 at 12:01 a.m.
For years, Weaver's Cove Energy, the company that wants to develop a liquefied natural gas terminal in Fall River, has battled critics in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, who have fought the project on several fronts.
Opponents say the terminal -- and massive tankers making regular trips through Narragansett Bay -- would pose a serious safety risk to communities on Mount Hope Bay and cause widespread environmental damage. They also say the region already has enough natural gas and doesn't need a new terminal.
The four U.S. senators from the two states, who all oppose the terminal, cited the supply argument in a letter they sent in November to a key Senate appropriations committee, urging it to prohibit the Federal Regulatory Commission from using federal money to approve the terminal.
With temperatures plummeting –– and the Weaver's Cove project far from resolved –– we thought this was a good time to delve into the issue, focusing on the senators' claim that New England has ample supplies of natural gas, and therefore doesn't need the new terminal. We chose Sen. Jack Reed as the speaker for this item because he issued a news release about the letter.
The senators cited an analysis by the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) that was summarized in a Nov. 16, 2009 letter the department sent to federal regulators: "DOER asserts that it is unclear to what extent, if any, Weaver Cove's LNG supply is needed to meet the region's gas supply needs. . ."
In the letter, the Massachusetts energy office staff reported that within the past year, two new or expanded LNG facilities were completed in the Northeast, adding to the "large excess supply already in the natural gas market."
They also cited other increased supplies and a drop in demand for natural gas. Those were among many changes in the region's electricity and natural gas marketplace that occurred since the Weaver's Cove project was first initiated in 2002, they said. As a result, they said, "it is unclear why there would be demand for additional LNG infrastructure."
We then found Damien Gaul, an analyst for the Energy Information Administration, a research arm of the U.S. Department of Energy. Gaul referred us to a recent administration projection showing natural gas demand nationally increasing from 23 trillion cubic feet in 2008 to 26.4 trillion cubic feet in 2035, a growth rate of .6 percent annually.
"We don't believe the U.S. has a need for more LNG deliveries," said Gaul, who emphasized his agency does not issue opinions on specific LNG proposals.
"We currently have the capacity to handle five times the demand we have now. Does the U.S. need more LNG? Probably not. Does the Northeast need more? Probably not."
The natural gas supply issue also arose at a hearing for electric utility National Grid before the Rhode Island Public Utilities Commission on Oct. 20, 2010.
Elizabeth D. Arangio, U.S. director of gas supply planning for National Grid, said several new sources of gas have been created in the Northeast, with more to come soon. She concluded: "So at this point, the market doesn't technically need more supply in this area in addition to those projects ..."
At the same hearing, Bruce Oliver, a consultant hired by the PUC, said the recession has reduced the demand for LNG. "That is, the overall demand in the region has declined due to the economy and other factors, energy-efficiency activity, etc. That activity negates a lot of the factors that were driving the need for a Weaver's Cove type of supply."
So why would Weaver's Cove spend millions of dollars fighting to develop a project to deliver a product to a market that doesn't need it?
We asked Gordon Shearer, president of Hess LNG LLC, who has spearheaded the Weaver's Cove project. He responded with a question: If New England has enough gas, he asked, why are prices for natural gas here much higher than in the rest of the country? (Gas prices vary widely across the country; the EIA finds prices in New England are generally several dollars higher per thousand cubic feet than the national average.) The high prices, Shearer said, show the region needs more gas.
He also said the Massachusetts Energy Office used faulty arithmetic in its study and failed to note that existing pipelines don't have enough capacity to handle much of the new LNG supplies. He also dismissed the federal reports, saying commercial forecasters tend to see a need for more imports.
But documents Shearer provided told a mixed story. For instance, a report from Spectra Energy described the company's efforts to pipe more gas to the Northeast, but it said nothing about the need for more gas from other sources.
Another report, the 2010 Statistical Guide by the Northeast Gas Association, reports that "an era of abundant supplies appears to have arrived" and that is having a positive impact on natural gas prices.
The rapid development of shale gas supplies in New York and Pennsylvania are expected to produce substantially more gas for the U.S. market, the report said. It noted that some proposed LNG projects, including one offshore of New Jersey, have been withdrawn recently because of the changing market conditions.
To summarize: The Massachusetts and federal energy offices say there is an ample supply of natural gas. So does National Grid, the largest local utility.
Weaver's Cove contention -- that the region's relatively high gas prices prove there's not enough supply -- may make theoretical sense. But it hasn't convinced the regulators so far. Nor us.
We find the claim by Reed and the other senators to be True.
Update: The original version of this item incorrectly reported that National Grid, a major supplier of electricity and natural gas, burns natural gas to produce electricity. National Grid buys and sells electricity but does not generate it.

Report of the UN Country Team in Ukraine is presented at the CEDAW 66th session
14 February 2017 – The Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) at its 66th session reviewed reports about the situation in Ukraine.
Ukraine has ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and is reviewed regularly by CEDAW on the progress of the implementation of the Convention. The Committee, which is composed of 23 international independent experts, held dialogue with delegations from the government of Ukraine and was also briefed by NGOs and national human rights institutions.
Neal Walker, UN Resident Coordinator, Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine has presented UN Country Team Report on CEDAW implementation:
Madam Chair, members of the Committee,
Thank you for the opportunity to brief you on behalf of the UN Country team in Ukraine. I am pleased to have with me today colleagues closely associated with our work on this report, including Anastasia Divinskaya, the Head of UN Women in Ukraine and Natalia Pylypiv, OHCHR Human Rights Officer.
Let me start by stating simply: the United Nations Country Team in Ukraine prioritizes gender equality and women's rights. We are deeply apprehensive about the unprecedented challenges in Ukraine that impact women's access to equal opportunities and rights, and we are particularly worried about women facing multiple forms of discrimination. The roots can be found in patriarchal attitudes and stereotypes, but also in deep-rooted systemic problems which have not been addressed. These include weak rule of law, antiquated social-protection systems, weak capacity of national machinery for the advancement of women and a lack of political will. The conflict seriously exacerbated systemic problems and created new challenges and a whole new type of violations of women's human rights.
I am proud to present the UNCT Ukraine's first report to CEDAW Committee. The report was prepared by the UN Gender Theme Group including seven agencies: UN Women, OHCHR, UNAIDS, UNFPA, UNDP, UNHCR and ILO, with support of the UN Peace and Development Advisor.
We decided to focus on three key areas that have consistently been problematic in Ukraine and where the situation has further been exacerbated due to the on-going conflict and its consequences. They are: public and political life, employment and work and violence against women.
The submission provides supplementary information to the Eighth Periodic Report of the Government of Ukraine, as well as the Shadow reports submitted by civil society organizations. In preparation to the 66th session of the CEDAW Committee, UN Agencies organized two consultations and one training with the civil society and the Government to support their preparation to the session, as well as to validate the issues and the data. I will now briefly present each of these areas in terms of the key problems.
Public and political life
The level of participation of women in public and political life is low. Women comprise 11% of Parliament, 12% of the Cabinet of Ministers and 16% of the executive civil servants at the top level of public administration. The temporary special measures are applied inconsistently, and even where the quotas are introduced (local elections law), the enforcement mechanisms are still not in place. In short, women are excluded from key political decision making apparatus. I would particularly like to highlight that due to the lack of affirmative measures, women facing multiple forms of discrimination, such as Roma, women with disabilities, displaced women and others, are almost entirely excluded from the decision-making.
The national reform agenda and the eighteen reforms initiated since 2014 have been developed without gender and human rights perspectives. The implementation of the reforms almost entirely neglects the national and international commitments on gender equality and women's human rights, as well as the new gender equality priorities caused by the conflict. Women, facing multiple forms of discrimination, as well as the women's groups and organisations are not a part of decision-making forums or consultations concerning the reforms.
National machinery for the advancement of women remains weak. There is a lack of coordination and coherence between machinery at the local and at the national levels. This prevents comprehensive government-wide implementation of the gender equality and women's rights agenda.
However, I am pleased to report that in October 2016 the Prime-Minister decided to establish a position of Commissioner on Equal Rights and Opportunities for Women and Men in the Cabinet of Ministers. This promising measure has the potential to enhance comprehensive advancement of gender equality and women's human rights in Ukraine by engaging the Cabinet of Ministers. The Decree on establishment of the position is pending approval, hopefully by the end of February 2017 and we encourage the Committee to support this development.
Employment and work
The gender pay gap remains a key concern. The gap has not changed since 2009 and now the difference in wages of men and women is approximately 24%. Horizontal and vertical occupational segregation by gender remains strong reflecting and perpetuating stereotypes regarding the traditional roles of men and women. As a result, women are concentrated in sectors with relatively high educational requirements, but lower wages, for instance in the public sector. The current general legislative prohibition against women's employment "in heavy work and work with harmful or dangerous conditions" excludes women that have the physical capacity and the desire, to take such jobs. Lack of disaggregated data on the labour market is a serious obstacle: Government must address this problem to effectively address the gender pay gap.
The armed conflict exposed a problem of occupational segregation and employment discrimination in armed forces. Of almost one thousand posts in military service at the private, sergeant and sergeant-major level, approximately two-thirds are closed to women. Military positions that can officially be held by women are limited to posts that involve the provision of services, care and entertainment (librarian, secretary, nurse, clerk, and accountant). We know in fact, that women participate in combat. Discrepancies between women's formal and actual positions result in women being paid less than men. Deeply concerning, they are often ineligible for services and benefits in case of injury sustained during combat or from receiving status as a veteran of the Anti-Terrorist Operation.
Studies document the prevalence of discrimination in the world of work on the basis of sex and other grounds, such as disability, age, HIV status, displacement. This includes discrimination in access to employment, unequal remuneration, conditions of work and violence at the workplace, among others. Effective access to justice is not available for victims of discrimination.
Finally, in this section, I wanted to refer to Question 21 raised by the Committee in the list of issues in relation to Ukraine. We fully endorse the urgent need to delink the payment of social benefits, including pensions, from IDP status.
Gender-based violence remains widespread in Ukraine. Recent research shows that 19% of women aged 15-49 have experienced some type of physical violence. The armed conflict in eastern Ukraine increases the risks of gender-based violence, due to the unravelling of social fabric, displacement, deteriorating economic situation.
Lack of accurate and reliable data on GBV remains an acute problem. It is not collected systematically at the national level, so good data is not available to inform response and policies. The interchangeable use of terms, such as conflict-related sexual violence, gender-based violence and domestic violence by the media, the Government and service providers contributes to confusion and complicates a determination of the scale and scope of problems.
Based on data collected to-date, there are no grounds to ascertain that sexual violence has been used for strategic or tactical needs of the parties to the conflict. The majority of documented cases of conflict-related sexual violence occurred in the context of deprivation of liberty. Other risk factors include imposition of checkpoints and presence of armed actors in populated areas.
Services for GBV survivors remain inadequate. The referral pathways are broken, especially in conflict-affected regions. Professionals in medical and social state institutions lack the specific knowledge and skills required to deal with survivors. Consequently, specialised services for the survivors are provided by civil society organisations through donor-funded programmes. High quality services are available in urban centres, mostly in the capital but there is little or no assistance available in smaller towns and rural areas. Across the country, there is almost complete absence of safe spaces (shelters) that meet required criteria.
The conflict had a particularly negative impact on the provision of services for survivors in territory controlled by armed groups. Armed groups have imposed severe limitations that prevent humanitarians from carrying out programmes, particularly those linked to protection and psycho-social support.
Women constitute overwhelming majority of the registered victims of offences of sexual nature: 91% of rape survivors and 74% of domestic violence survivors. Unfortunately, perpetrators often enjoy impunity for these crimes. National legislation and legal practice regarding the prosecution of sexual violence is limited and is not fully in line with international standards and practice. Due to gaps in legislation and a lack of capacity, acts of sexual violence, including conflict-related, are often recorded by law enforcement as "other crimes" – such as bodily injury. Lawyers, police officers, prosecutors and judges lack knowledge of how to document, investigate and consider cases of conflict-related sexual violence. Consequently, victims of sexual violence are often confronted with inaction, or even inappropriate action, by State authorities.
Ukraine's broader legislation on gender-based violence is contradictory and requires revision. The Istanbul Convention, one of the key regional instruments to combat violence against women, has not been ratified.
In conclusion, allow me to reiterate that the United Nations Country Team at the level of Heads of Agencies, ably supported by the Gender Theme Group, is deeply committed to continue our advocacy on concrete actions required to achieve Gender Equality. We will also continue to implement programs and projects designed to improve Gender Equality. We count on clear concluding observations from the Committee to support the work of Ukrainian stakeholders to achieve Gender Equality.
Thank you again for the opportunity to present the UNCT report and we welcome any questions.

Does not let reports for past periods be changed.
In folios, each charge is presented as a single line, irrespective of the number of corrections. This gives a much simpler view to front office staff. If they want to change the room price, they only need to change the value of the charge. If a charge is made by mistake, they can void it and it will be hidden in the guest folio.
Each time a charge is changed, a history record is stored with the change. Thus audit and charge reports show the original figures and all changes in chronological order. The changes to specific charge can be found under the 'Changes' button next to each charge in the folio. The history of all charges can be seen in the Charge Control Report.
1. First, let's create a booking for 2 nights for 1st January next year. The nights will be charged to the booking folio with future dates (1st and 2nd Jan), that's 100 USD.
The future charges will not be included in today's charges report.
2. The booking is still in the future, but we need to change the room price: edit the charges from 100 to 90 USD.
The services are still in the future. No revenue is registered yet and the charges will not be included in the charges report.
3. It's 1st January now.
The first charge will be included in the 1st Jan charges report as 90 USD.
4. It's 2st January now.
The second charge will be included in the 2nd Jan charges report as 90 USD.
5. It is 3rd January and the booking is checking out. The manager decides to give the guest an additional discount. He changes the room charges for 1st and 2nd January from 90 USD to 80 USD.
The Charges report for 1st and 2nd will be not changed. Two records for -10 USD each will appear in the 3rd Jan charges report.
6. Still at check-out, the receptionist notices that a laundry service charge for 15 USD from 2nd Jan has been skipped. They charge it and set the date of the charge to 2nd Jan, so in the guest folio the charge will be presented with date 2nd Jan.
The Charges report for 2nd will not be changed. One record for 15 USD will appear in the 3rd Jan charges report.
3rd Jan: -20 USD Rooms + 15 USD Extra services.

Q: Find actual matching word when using fuzzy query in elastic search I am new to elasticsearch and was looking around fuzzy query search.
I have made a new index products with object/record values like this
{
            "_index": "products",
            "_type": "product",
            "_id": "10",
            "_score": 1,
            "_source": {
                "value": [
                    "Ipad",
                    "Apple",
                    "Air",
                    "32 GB"
                ]
            }
        }

Now when i am performing a fuzzy query search in elasticsearch like
{
   query: {
       fuzzy: {
          value: "tpad"
       }
   }
}

It returns me the correct record (the product just made above) which is expected.
And i know that the term tpad matches ipad so record was return.
But technically how would i know that it has matched ipad. Elastic search just returns the full record(or records) like this
{
"took": 4,
"timed_out": false,
"_shards": {
    "total": 5,
    "successful": 5,
    "failed": 0
},
"hits": {
    "total": 1,
    "max_score": 0.61489093,
    "hits": [
        {
            "_index": "products",
            "_type": "product",
            "_id": "10",
            "_score": 0.61489093,
            "_source": {
                "value": [
                    "Ipad",
                    "Apple",
                    "Air",
                    "32 GB"
                ]
            }
        }
    ]
}
}

Is there any way in elastic search so that i can know if it has matched tpad against ipad

A: if you use highlighting, Elasticsearch will show the terms that matched:
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/products/product/_search?pretty -d '{
  "query" : {
    "fuzzy" : {
        "value" : "tpad"
      }
  },
  "highlight": {
    "fields" : {
        "value" : {}
    }
  }
}'

Elasticsearch will return matching documents with the fragment highlighted:
{
  "took" : 31,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 5,
    "successful" : 5,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : 1,
    "max_score" : 0.13424811,
    "hits" : [ {
      "_index" : "products",
      "_type" : "product",
      "_id" : "10",
      "_score" : 0.13424811,
      "_source":{
 "value" : ["Ipad",
                "Apple",
                "Air",
                "32 GB"
                ]
           },
      "highlight" : {
        "value" : [ "Ipad" ]
      }
    } ]
  }
}

A: if you just want to analyze the result, you could use the Inquisitor plugin.
If you need to do this programmatically, I think the highlighting feature will help you:
Determining which words were matched in a fuzzy search

A: I know the question is older but I just ran into it. The way I do it is by populating the query name field when building the query. This way it will come back inside the "matchedQuery" field in response. Hope this helps :)

Q: setPreviewData on Next.js /api serverless throws error (not a funciton) I'm using next.js for presenting data from sanity.io and I'm deploying it as a serverless application on AWS (edge-optimized). At first this functionality was working but at some point it just stopped working on the aws deployment and I just can' figure out what it is. On the http://localhost:3000 endpoint it is still working.
I used the official next.js guide to implement
https://nextjs.org/docs/advanced-features/preview-mode
This is a simple version of the code
export default async function handler(req, res) {

// code that checks that that the request is correct here, it works

console.log('about to call setPreviewData', res.setPreviewData.toString());
// the previous log command is called and this is how the function is logged
// (data,options= {} )=>setPreviewData(apiRes,data,Object.assign({} apiContext,options))
res.setPreviewData({})

// the function crashes between the previous and this log

console.log('Location to go to', `/${req.query.slug}`)
res.writeHead(307, {
    Location: `/${post.type}/${post.slug}`
})
res.end()

}
relevant dependencies
"next": "^10.0.3",

dev dependencies
"serverless-next.js": "^1.15.0-alpha.2",
"serverless-nextjs-plugin": "^2.5.2-alpha.0"

Even stranger is that in the same api folder I have an exit-preview function
export default async function handler(_, res) {
res.clearPreviewData()
res.writeHead(307, { Location: '/' })
res.end()

}
I have checked the CloudFront configuration and 'Forward Cookies' is turned on.
In Cloudwatch I get a chain of errors around e[t] is not a function
"errorType": "Runtime.UnhandledPromiseRejection",
"errorMessage": "TypeError: e[t] is not a function",
"reason": {
    "errorType": "TypeError",
    "errorMessage": "e[t] is not a function",

        "    at __webpack_require__ (/var/task/pages/api/previewArticle.js:7249:30130)"
...

Does anyone have any suggestion to what I can try? Thank you :)

NEW YORK -- Skyrocketing unemployment in the COVID-19 pandemic poses an even greater threat to a segment of the workforce that historically has faced significant challenges: people with disabilities.
Last year, the unemployment rate for people with disabilities was about 70%, but it had started to come down and might have continued. As the job market rebounds, said Vince Loose, president and chief executive of SourceAmerica, a nonprofit that creates job opportunities for people with disabilities, it will be important to ensure that people with disabilities are included in plans for the economic recovery.
"They're hired last and fired first," he said, "so we really have some concern about what's going to happen as we come back to work and what their employment opportunities will be going forward."
He said the pandemic has had a big impact on the nature of work itself, and that may open new opportunities for people with disabilities.
Limited mobility is a major obstacle for many workers with disabilities. Loose noted that with entire states shutting down to stop the coronavirus spread, many workers have had to find ways to do their jobs from home.
"Now I think employers will realize that telework is something that can work for them, and they really need to look to differing abilities and skill sets and capabilities that exist, but they would not necessarily have hired in the past."
He said he hopes the momentum toward meaningful employment for professionals with disabilities won't be lost because of the COVID crisis.
Even during the crisis, this segment of the workforce has been doing its part as essential workers. Loose said people with disabilities loaded hundreds of pallets of provisions onto the hospital ship USNS Comfort before it sailed to New York.
"And also, the Javits Center medical facility; 2,400 military personnel there need laundry services," he said. "And so, people with disabilities have taken up the work to take care of all their laundry needs."
He said people with disabilities are a diverse and talented workforce that is committed to helping the communities where they work and live.

Steering Change And Transformation
By Pinakesh Mukherjee |
There is a saying "history repeats itself" and this is so true for change. The evolution of the human race and of the planet makes for a fascinating reading. What prominently stands out is the constant rate of change that has occurred on this planet and to every life form. On the face of it, these changes might have resulted in extreme difficulties to the species at the moment of change, but over time, the ones that have successfully evolved have invariably turned up stronger and fitter in accordance with the Darwinian theory.
In the context of organisations, the evolution is more or less similar. Imagine this – ten years ago, if we had to take a picture, what was the most common method of doing it? Probably, one would use their DSLR. Today, the most convenient way to take an instant high-resolution photograph is the phone camera. And, what happened to one of the most iconic brands, when its cameras failed to evolve– Kodak went out of business. If we pause for a moment to ponder on what went wrong with Kodak, one of the realisations would be that the organisation failed to identify that a big change (in the form of camera phones) had made its way, and thus was left unprepared. This rate of change happens to all industries and those who are able to identify them are often in a better position to deal with the change and emerge stronger.
The Psychology of Change
While we consider the natural progression of change, it is important to bear in mind that change is never easy. Often, there is an inherent and visible résistance to change in any change journey. The reason is not very difficult to comprehend. In most cases, the resistance to change is triggered out of the fear of the unknown.
It has been written in Psychology Today that our minds, like water, take the path of least resistance, and therefore, when confronted with change, it fails to follow its preferred path, thereby leading to discomfort and hence resistance. One of the theories that explain the process in which change is gradually accepted is known as the Kubler Ross Grief cycle.
Shock Stage: The freezing moment of the mind when a person hears the news for the first time
Denial Stage: Trying to deny the change
Anger stage: Outpouring of emotion ("Why me?")
Depression Stage: Realisation that the change is final and will happen
Testing Stage: Looking for a realistic solution to the change
Acceptance Stage: Accepting that the change has happened or likely to happen very soon
Combining change with Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity & Ambiguity (VUCA)
On the one hand, we see that change is discomforting as it challenges the status quo, disrupts routine, and upsets the rhythm, while on the other, the world is progressively operating in an increasingly VUCA environment, where shades of grey, rather than black and white are the norm. This adds another dimension to the challenge of change- limited time to anticipate or respond to change. Under such circumstances, one or more failures to respond leaves our mind more concerned with the risk of failure and increase the resistance.
In Quotes "Our minds take the path of least resistance and therefore when confronted with change, it fails to follow its preferred path thereby leading to discomfort."
Banking and telecom are two industries that have seen significant changes in the ways of operating in recent times. Technology has played a significant role and has virtually redesigned the way organisations operate in these sectors. In the banking sector, technology has enabled banking activities through the usage of mobile banking apps. Activities like fund transfers, opening fixed deposits, stock purchases, card payments can all be done in a few clicks, thereby reducing the need for physical infrastructure and resources, including human resources. Similarly, payment banks and its acceptance across large sections of the retail market have made digital wallets more common in the past few years.
The telecom sector in India has also seen a significant change in recent years. From SIM cards to recharges, almost everything is available online, creating minimal need for human intervention. All these impending evolutions were not necessarily known at the time when they were starting to unfold, and therefore, organisations and people might have found it challenging to adapt, when the changes were happening.
Below is a block of characteristics that help in dealing with change challenges better in a more volatile and ambiguous world.
Behaviours to respond better to change
Managing a change process
The way a change process is managed plays a significant role in its success. For any change process to succeed, some of the imperatives to be considered are:
What are the disruptions that are likely to be created both in business & in the workforce?
How will the change impact people?
How to communicate the change process for maximum and fastest absorption?
Unfortunately, it is not the lack of intent but lack of information that leads to challenges to the change process.
Challenges while implementing change
People resistance: As mentioned above, employees often take the path of least resistance. This means, any change is unnerving, and hence, it creates resistance including emotions like anger, rejections, denial etc. One of the key reasons for such a response is the fear of unknown. The end result of a change process is rarely known in advance.
Ambiguity, lack of complete information: During any change, especially in today's time, it often is a case where the complete change journey is not clear or unknown to the leaders. This means that they realise that businesses and processes need to change, but they may not know what the final product or service may look like. This can also be challenging since the leaders are unable to share the final state, and, often this state of grey can create more uncertainty in people's mind.
Market forces: In some cases, sudden major disruptions take place while a change process is currently active. This could lead to further changes or departure from the previous plan. Under such circumstances, managing the change can be even more challenging as it might mean a complete change of plans.
Communication breakdown: Communication is a crucial element in any change. It is much easier to deal with resistance when there is effective and frequent communication from leaders during the change journey. While the leaders may not be in a position to elaborate on everything related to the plan, it is crucial that there is frequent communication to the entire organisation to share as much information as possible.
Events like employee town halls etc. help in addressing queries and providing clarity to the employees. It also helps in getting first-hand information about what people are thinking and feeling. Unfortunately, in a lot of organisations, communication becomes limited during a change process for multiple reasons, which only contributes to more gossips, uninformed speculations and reduces creativity. Increased curiosity about new emerging trends/topics, and learning about them lead to newer skills, which will help stay relevant in the job market."
Types of changes impacting organisations
The three key triggers of change in organisations are via technology changes, mergers & acquisitions, and evolution of products and services. Research by different organisations indicate that the single most disruptor of these has been the impact of technology, and the results are quite apparent – from driverless cars to interconnected devices to robots in the shop floor. It is natural for these changes to impact the workforce to a large extent. Skills that were relevant a couple of years ago are now redundant, and this change will continue to gather momentum as we progressively move into a more technology-driven society.
Impact of Change on the workforce
Skill Redundancy and need for Reskilling: In terms of impact, this is probably most crucial. While it is true that certain jobs are going to be impacted due to the forces of change, it is equally true that there is going be a great demand for new skills. In fact, a recent Gartner study says that automation and AI will create 2.3 million jobs while eliminating 1.8 million. What is crucial to note is that the skills required for these 2.3 million jobs would be largely different from the ones that will be lost. That is where the need for reskilling becomes so very important. It is also good in a way that many people will be able to experience multiple careers in a single career span.
Less repetitive tasks and more "human" jobs: This will mean that jobs that need routine activities with the limited use of human faculty will become fewer, while jobs, which need the application of human intelligence, and emotions will increase. For example, factory shop floors are likely to have more robots while roles like counselling and teaching will continue to grow
Continuous learning as a way of life: Increasing curiosity about new emerging trends, topics and learning about it will lead to newer skills which will help stay relevant in the job market. This means the days of formal education are truly over. Lifelong learners are going to have a clear edge over those with fixed skills.
In Quotes "A Gartner study states that automation and AI will create 2.3 million jobs while eliminating 1.8 million. What is crucial to note is that the skills required for these 2.3 million jobs would be very different…"
Increase in gig workers: It is estimated that more than 30% of the future workforce would pertain to the gig ecosystem - seeking short-term, project-based employment as against lifelong employment with a single organisation. And, this implies that the war for talent will only increase, and organisations will have to increasingly offer exciting opportunities to attract these gig workers. It will be a win-win proposition for organisations, since, they are less likely to bear the employee cost when the business confronts a hurdle.

when you explore in Elder Scrolls Online, you will come across locked doors and chests hiding loot like other players. Do you know how to lockpick?
You are likely to already know the lockpicking mechanic in Elder Scrolls Online, if you have played Oblivion before. If you haven't, try to unlock chests and lock picks that you can find littered throughout the world, or you can also buy them from vendors. Unlocking chests and doors can be tough, but the more you manage to lockpick, the higher your skill will gets and the easier future lockpicking gets.
The interactive lock will appears on your screen, and you can see five pins. If you are on PC, press down your lockpick on each pin to unlock it by left clicking. You can also unlock it by holding the right trigger if you're on console. The time of picking each lock in Elder Scrolls Online is limited. Don't spend more time on it because if you spend more time on it, the lock level will be higher.
Is there a trick to lockpicking successfully? Yes the trick is to release each pin just as it begins to wiggle. You will hear the click after you let go. That means it has been unlocked. After you unlock one then quickly move to the other pins before the time runs out. Don't be afraid to fail, your lockpicking skill increases with each attempt, the only cost is the lockpicks.
