Women in business can be multi-faceted and intertwine different skill sets to create their dream business that helps serve people in a life changing way. Women do not have to be scared about what people think and being different – it can be the best thing ever done.
Across the globe, more and more women are starting their own business. In the past 20 years, the number of women owned businesses has increased by 144%. For multi award-winning transformational brand consultant and coach, Jessica Ritchie, she wants to equip those women to stand out in this fast paced and noisy world.
As women transition from corporate life into the entrepreneurial world, Jessica believes it is important for them to have clarity, connection and confidence in their business, career and life.
“What I find when I am working with high performing women is there are a lot of businesses competing with the same products or services. This is why it’s imperative to know yourself, so you stand out in a homogenised world,” she said.
“We know many small business owners do a lot of things on their own – from accounting, human resources to operations. What I’ve found is their identity becomes their business; it can be all encompassing, and they can burn out. Generally, it is their personal and business brand that gets put to the bottom of the list as well as their self-care. It’s something they know is imperative, but they just don’t know where to start.”
Jessica describes herself as a ‘business sherpa’, guiding her clients, helping them ease the load in their business journey.
“Business can sometimes feel like a mountainous journey. I ease what can feel like a burden and lighten the workload. When the outlook appears foggy, it is hard to know where and how to start; climbing the mountain together, step by step, makes the journey more enjoyable,” she said.
Emma Mactaggart, author, speaker and founder of ‘Child Writes’ Foundation has worked with Jessica. “For fifteen years, I’ve been working towards a single goal, one that became so convoluted and complicated, I was drowning,” she said.
“The clarity and the ability to uncover my purpose could only be realised and described once I worked with Jessica. She led with compassion, clarity and kindness, which meant I quickly discovered what was holding me back, the vision to propel me into the future, and the importance of being fully present and accountable in the moment.”
Jessica said many women in business lose themselves. “They don’t know who they are anymore, feeling like they are everything to everyone, without energy left for themselves,” she said.
“By getting clear on their identity, harnessing their resilience and using their story for success, they can transform their personal and business brand,” Jessica said.
Jessica understands the journey; having overcome many obstacles in her life from losing her home in the 2011 Brisbane floods, experiencing sexual harassment in male-dominated workplaces and being told (incorrectly) on national TV, her police officer husband had been killed in action.
“Through these experiences and having worked with over 3,000 women in business, I learned you must listen to your intuition, have courageous conversations and have the confidence to back yourself. If you don’t, you can literally lose everything you’ve ever worked for and start again. I’m here to help navigate that journey so women in business can live an empowered and inspired business and life,” she said.

John Burke, CIO and Principal Research Analyst with Nemertes Research will moderate the discussion. Panelists participating in this discussion are:
Richard Armstrong, Head of Americas Solutions Engineering, Cloudflare Luc Boivin, Director Solutions Architecture, Financial Services Sector, Verizon Business Group Raja Chris, Managing Director, Head of Infrastructure, Annaly Capital Management, Inc. Guruprasad Ramamoorthy, VP, Global Head of Network Architecture, Engineering & Operations, S&P Global Brent Schroeder, CTO, SUSE Lenworth Smith, Director of Global: Infrastructure, Operations and Security, EquiLend Chris Young, Chief Technologist, Micro Focus
“It’s not all about clouds and work-from-home!” notes John Burke. “About 40% of critical IT work is still done in data centers, and at least 30% will stay there for years to come. An increasing slice will take place in edge facilities, though, both enterprise and service-provider owned. And, as always, the enterprise network will knit it all together, no matter where the work is getting done or where the users are. Our distinguished panelists will surely make this a lively discussion of issues, strategies, technologies, and solutions.”
The WAN has changed forever. No longer does it transport traffic primarily from “inside to inside” (that is, from on-premise offices to on-premise data centers). The majority of traffic now initiates from or terminates on a site that’s off-premise—or both!
It’s time to talk about how you are approaching your next generation of infrastructure! when:
The WAN is no longer just the network that links your branches to your data center, and most WAN traffic touches the outside…
60% or more of IT workloads execute in clouds…
40% of organizations want edge infrastructure…
…And nobody wants to go into a windowless space with no outside air exchange
In this session we’ll discuss with industry leaders their approaches to the future of infrastructure, their best practices and cautionary tales, and advice on how to adapt.
We’ll cover next-generation technologies such as SD-WAN, SASE/SCAPE, and software-defined perimeter (SDP), RPA for data centers, and wireless (4G and 5G) for WANs and networks. We’ll also look at tools such as cloud orchestration and intelligent storage. We cover the evolution of edge computing and address the emergence of lights-out, autonomous data centers. We’ll discuss the key components of edge computing and edge data center, and how to integrate these emerging technologies into a next-generation architecture.

According to the latest study published by Profshare Market Research Global Truck Tires Market is expected to reach USD 149.97 billion by 2027. The exponential growth of the automotive industry around the globe making a similar growth projection on the Tyre industry. Truck tires OR Commercial vehicle tires have low life span than average passenger vehicle tires due to harsh driving conditions. The global tires market is relatively concentrated as the manufacturing technology required for truck tires is relatively higher and costly than some light tires. Global Truck Tires Market growth is estimated to show a lower CAGR of 4.2 % between 2019-27.
Diagonal Tires, Bias Tires and Radial Tires are primary truck tire types. In 2018 Radial tire segment showed high growth of 7.3 %. Radial tire technology is primarily dominating in Asia Pacific & Latin America region. Ride quality decides the fate of any tire category, Radial Tires offers better ride quality because of greater traction. On the other hand, bias tires don’t offer great smoothness in terms of riding quality, primarily due to their strong and stable sidewalls, especially in heavy-duty carriage trucks. Hence, bias tires can be commonly used in large commercial vehicles.
Study indicates that Truck tires find its application in Mini trucks, Light trucks, Medium-Sized Truck and Heavy trucks. Globally Heavy Truck segment generated highest volume of around USD 64 billion in 2018. Infrastructure development especially in developing nations results into large-scale use of heavy commercial vehicles. Mini Truck segment also expected to show healthy growth for commercial vehicle tires manufacturer.
Asia pacific region is market leader primarily due to emerging industrialization and the presence of large global companies with their manufacturing base. China, India and Brazil surely continue to play vital role in the growth of the Truck Tire market. China is the largest manufacturer of Truck Tyre and the reason behind the large sell of Chines Truck tire sell is pricing strategy. On an average Chinese Truck tyres are USD 70 to 120 cheaper than most of the good brand tires and hence resulting in more sell. North America and Europe expected to show constant growth while South America, Africa & Middle East remains to enjoy moderate growth rate due to rise in the construction market.

Industrial journalist, TR Cutler recently authored a series of strategic marketing considerations aimed to increase manufacturers’ customers and profit margins. The series is published in Manufacturing Outlook ezine.
First, Cutler explored the importance of a paradigm of PUSH marketing. Typically, manufacturers have turned to tradeshows, Google Adwords, or purchasing full page advertisements as part of their marketing plan. Cutler suggested, “A bucket of published feature articles from which to advance a sale is the only solution.” Read full article here.
Second, Cutler discussed how manufacturers will prosper in 2021 with a consistent and constant message. According to Cutler, “Achieving media coverage is a good way to build a manufacturer’s profile, increase a well-earned reputation, and communicate messaging to target audience customers. Posting a single published feature article is not enough; it must provoke the implementation of cross-promotional PR strategies which exponentially increase the reach of the media coverage.” Read full article here.
Third, Cutler shared the importance of content creation for manufacturers. Manufacturing segmentation requires industry expertise for innovative content creation. It is sharing industry expertise by thought leaders and manufacturing journalists. More than 8000 editors, staff reporters, economists, and freelancers worldwide are members of the Manufacturing Media Consortium. Read the full article here.
Fourth, Cutler reported on the importance of competitive knowledge gathering for manufacturers. “Too often the competition is taking away customers or simply bad-mouthing a manufacturer’s operation. Ignorance about the competition is inexcusable,” shared Cutler. Read the full article here.

As tax season approaches, truck drivers, like members of any other profession, should put their paperwork in order to take advantage of lawful tax deductions. Businesses are eligible as well and Advanced Training Systems CEO John Kearney explains how.
If you’re a truck driver, you’re also a business concern, and eligible for a number of money-saving tax deductions. Whether you’re a truck owner/operator or an employee of another firm, you can deduct your cell phone charges, licensing fees, and other expenses from your declared taxable income. “Trucking isn’t just a job,” says Advanced Training Systems CEO John Kearney, “it’s a profession, and treated as such by the Internal Revenue Service. My advice to drivers, whatever their employment category, is simple: learn the rules, keep orderly records, and get your returns in on time.” The IRS requires you to keep receipts and for your business expenses for at least 3 years after the date of filing your return and longer in certain circumstances.
Kearney, whose company is a leading designer and manufacturer of virtual simulators for driver training, among other applications, notes that employee drivers and owner/operators will use different forms to report their income; if you’re in any doubt on this score, he recommends that you consult the IRS or a tax professional. In either case, however, truckers can and should deduct from their taxable income not only their cell phone, internet, and license renewal costs, but also required medical exams, truck repair and maintenance, association dues, food consumed on the road, and job-related personal products such as food storage, logbooks, flashlight, and electronic equipment such as a GPS.(1)
In addition to deductions for individual drivers, notes Kearney, economic incentives are increasingly being offered to the trucking industry as a whole. Although the motor freight industry is essential to the U.S. economy—over 70% of all American freight moves by truck(2)—its growth and future are endangered by a persistent and growing shortage of drivers. There are an estimated 50,000 fewer short- and long-haul truckers in the U.S. than are needed now, a number that could possibly triple by 2028.(3) To combat this shortage on a local level, the Ohio state legislature has passed a bill granting a tax incentive to Ohio companies that hire and train new truck drivers.(4) Similar measures, including a possible easing of visa restrictions for foreign drivers(5), seem likely as the situation worsens.
Meanwhile, the COVID-19 pandemic, which has closed stores and offices across the nation, in 2020 caused a year-over-year U.S. jump in ecommerce of more than 30%.(6) In response, global big-box and ecommerce retailers are building distribution centers all over the country to facilitate faster deliveries and shorter routes, creating hundreds of thousands if not millions of new jobs.
“We don’t know for sure how many of these new positions will be for drivers,” says Kearney, “but informally we know it’s a lot. We’re in touch with these companies, who are interested in simulation not only because it produces better, safer drivers, but because of the potential return on investment. Except for the very final stages of training, it eliminates the need to tie up a truck and a licensed driver. The simulator realistically reproduces every possible driving situation, including some—black ice patches on the road, a steering tire blowout—that you can’t train for any other way. It’s as necessary as simulation training for pilots, and for the same reasons: honing professional skills and saving people’s lives.”
The combination of aggressive driver recruitment, simulator training, continued growth in shipping, and heightened public awareness of the importance of the supply chain, says Kearney, is creating a new day for truckers and trucking. “The pay is improving, the conditions are improving, the technology is improving, and the industry is exponentially more inclusive than it was even five years ago. If you want a career with a wide-open future, there’s never a better time to look at trucking. Just remember,” he adds, “to save your receipts.”

The rise in consumer demand for health and wellness products, increase in the application of a2 milk in infant formula, and a surge in the prevalence of lactose intolerance cases drive the growth of the global A2 milk market. By distribution channel, the supermarket & hypermarket segment held the major share in 2019. By region, on the other hand, North America appeared as the highest revenue holder in the same year.
According to the report published by Allied Market Research, the global A2 milk market was pegged at $1.12 billion in 2019 and is estimated to hit $3.69 Billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 15.8% from 2021 to 2027. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the top investment pockets, top winning strategies, drivers & opportunities, market size & estimations, competitive landscape, and changing market trends.
Rise in consumer demand for health and wellness products, increase in application of a2 milk in infant formula, and surge in the prevalence of lactose intolerance cases drive the growth of the global A2 milk market. On the other hand, high price compared to conventional milk impedes the growth to some extent. However, diversity in a2 milk products is expected to pave the way for lucrative opportunities in the industry.
Rise in awareness amongst people to strengthen their immunity & immune system to prevent themselves from being infected easily is compelling them to maintain a healthy lifestyle and proper diet. This factor has boosted the global A2 milk market even amidst the pandemic, though certain disruptions were noticed in the supply chain during the first phase of the lockdown.
This trend is likely to continue post pandemic as well, as there’s been a steep increase in demand for healthy functional beverages across the world.
The global A2 milk market is analyzed across form, packaging form, distribution channel, and region. Based on packaging form, the carton segment accounted for more than half of the total market share in 2019, and is projected to rule the roost by the end of 2027. The same segment would also register the fastest CAGR of 16.1% throughout the forecast period.
Based on distribution channel, the supermarket & hypermarket segment contributed to more than one-third of the total market revenue in 2019, and is expected to lead the trail by 2027. The online retail segment, on the other hand, would grow at the fastest CAGR of 16.5% from 2021 to 2027.
Based on geography, Asia-Pacific held the major share in 2019, garnering nearly two-fifths of the global A2 milk market. Simultaneously, the market across North America would exhibit the fastest CAGR of 16.9% by 2027. The other two provinces discussed in the report include Europe and LAMEA.
The leading market players analyzed in the global A2 milk market report include GCMMF (Amul), Erden Creamery Private Limited, Freedom Foods Group Limited, Lion Dairy & Drinks, Provilac Dairy Farms Pvt. Ltd., Ripley Farms LLC, Taw River Dairy, The a2 Milk Company Limited, Urban Farms Milk and Vinamilk. These market players have incorporated different strategies including partnership, expansion, collaboration, joint ventures, and others to brace their stand in the industry.

ROSEN, A LEADING LAW FIRM, Encourages Decision Diagnostics Corp. Investors with Losses In Excess of $100K to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline – DECN
WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Decision Diagnostics Corp. (OTC: DECN) between March 3, 2020 and December 17, 2020, inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important March 16, 2021 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Decision Diagnostics securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Decision Diagnostics class action, go to http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases-register-2009.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than March 16, 2021. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience or resources. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 3 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020 founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Decision Diagnostics had not developed any viable COVID-19 test, much less a test that could detect COVID-19 in less than one minute; (2) Decision Diagnostics could not meet the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use authorization testing requirements for its purported COVID-19 test; (3) accordingly, defendants had misrepresented the timeline within which Decision Diagnostics could realistically bring its COVID-19 test to market; (4) all of the foregoing subjected defendants to an increased risk of regulatory oversight and enforcement; and (5) as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
For some of us, our training and development programs have become casualties of Covid-19. However, post-Covid, it is vitally important that we develop strategies for a rapid rebuild of our lives, both business and personal. We must come out of the pandemic stronger and more competitive. To do that it will be necessary to bring our teams together in such a way as to build a unique culture, with everyone working as one, to move past adversity and prepare for explosive growth in 2021.
As many of us are coming to learn, that can be somewhat difficult in a virtual environment. We will have to be creative to get our employees engaged and to feel like they are part of a vibrant and caring organizations while adhering to safety protocols which may not allow us to meet regularly in person. But our mission from a people perspective is clear; to inspire our people to be the best, the brightest, most informed, and best educated people in their industry. How do we accomplish this? Top motivational speaker Rocky Romanella has developed an idea that can be a part of a powerful strategy to help overcome many of the challenges inherent in this new environment:
The virtual book club.
Social interactions have a positive impact on employee engagement. Organizations with higher levels of employee engagement see results in many areas, such as:
• lower costs, • improved performance and efficiency, • lower staff turnover and absenteeism, • and fewer safety incidents • improved employee involvement
The virtual book club can help accomplish these goals.
“Reading a new book in the privacy of your own home is often a great way to relax and promote self-education,” Romanella stated. “In a virtual book club setting, with the right books, you can promote learning and development in a fun, conversational, and educational way. And sometimes you just want to discuss what you have read with another person—or two—to bring those ideas off the page and into the world. A book club, even a virtual one, can create a sense of community.
“In your book club, your employees can learn new concepts and new ways of doing activities that they can apply in their workplace. We can develop a consistent set of book club discussion questions which will enable employees to apply the concepts on the job. Finally, we can build a book club that:
• builds camaraderie, comfort, and teamwork in the group of employees who attend. It is a team-building activity that works as well as the ones in the traditional settings and can flourish during virtual times.
• employees learn the same concepts as, by reading the same book, they share the same language, and they hear the same ideas. It makes the application and adoption of the ideas and concepts more easily and seamlessly into the workplace.
• The book club gives employees the opportunity to step up and practice leadership roles such as leading a group discussion or presenting to provide an overview of a chapter.
• You can help your organization become a learning organization in which people continuously grow and develop.
“I am offering my time to help anyone who would like to start a business book club in their organization. My personal offer to get started: Select Tighten The Lug Nuts as your first book and I will offer my time to participate in your book club free of charge as a thank you for your purchase. I will facilitate the discussion about the book, a chapter, or a concept. I can also help recommend books for future reading, etc.”
Rocky has built an entire library of cutting edge resources, available at his website, to help us start the Rapid Rebuild process. Those resources include:
VIRTUAL KEYNOTES – VIRTUAL TRAINING – SUPPORT FOR WEEKLY MEETINGS AND CALLS
Rocky has been doing virtual conferences and training sessions with a keen eye on POST COVID and the Rapid Rebuild of our businesses. He can build a program for any organization. Topics can include any or all of the 23 Leadership Competencies, concepts from the book, Tighten The Lug Nuts: The Principles Of Balanced Leadership, or any topic that might be appropriate.
