    Student Scientific-Practical Work «Corporate social responsibility politics of Microsoft Company» Irina Sharipova Belarusian State University Group №213 Business-Administration [email protected] Leading companies are definitely know where the source of increased productivity. These are the people involved in the work, motivated, have the resources to accomplish it and remunerative. The involvement of each employee in the work, the recognition of the contribution of each employee, recognition for each employee the right to have a voice and a role in the success of the company - is the source of true performance. The source from which it can improves not gradually but significantly. Jack Welch Learning about American companies and their social responsibilities, I found a lot of interesting things in how they care about their employees. As all we know, American business is the best example of successful business. And the reason of it, in my opinion, is that Americans think through all the details and, what is one of the most important, pay attention on how their employees do their job. Because a good head understand, that each member of their company is an important part of the team and only when each of them will be work the best he or she can and in team, only then the company will reach prosperity and great success. Happy employee is a good employee. And the efficiency of labor depends on it. During the years employers have been working on how to increase the motivation, involvement and enthusiasm of employees to the work. Many researches were made to find the decision.

It’s difficult to coordinate multiple people’s schedules on a small screen. As a result, many of us delay scheduling meetings until we’re back at our desks. Today we’re launching a new app through the Microsoft Garage that greatly simplifies this process. Say hello to Invite—the easiest way to organize meetings on the go. The way Invite works is simple: • You suggest times that work for you, and then invite attendees. You can use the app to invite anyone with an email address—even if they are outside your organization. • They select all the times they can attend. Once you’ve invited your attendees, they receive an email or an app notification if they have Invite installed. Attendees can then choose on the times that work for them, from the app itself or from a browser. They can also see what options work best for other attendees. • Once everyone has responded, you pick the time that works best. You choose a final date and time whenever you’re ready. Just pick the time that most people can make the meeting and tap Send Calendar Invites to get it on their calendars.

  • Windows Secrets Everyone Needs to Know
    Windows Secrets Everyone Needs to Know By KIM KOMANDO, national radio host, USA Today columnist, Fox News contributor and best-selling author 10 WINDOWS SECRETS EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW Introduction Windows 10 first hit the scene in the summer of 2015. Today, nearly a billion computers around the world are running Microsoft’s latest operating system. It’s estimated to dominate nearly 51% of the desktop OS market, surpassing even the popularity of Windows 7. (Because who remembers Windows 8, anyway?) Critics have praised Windows 10 over the past few years, but everyday users are harder to please. Some love it, while others hate it. Either way, Microsoft has described Windows 10 as its “final” version. That means instead of replacing the operating system every few years, Windows 10 pushes out a fairly consistent stream of free updates. With the return of the Start menu and advent of Microsoft Edge, Windows 10 is arguably the best version ever produced. Thanks to all those updates, new features are continuously added to Windows 10 — but keeping track of it all can be a chore. You don’t have to know everything this operating system can do, but it’s definitely in your favor to know more than just the basics. That includes features that aren’t as well known, like these 10 Windows 10 secrets you should be familiar with to get the most out of your machine. KOMANDO.COM 1 10 WINDOWS SECRETS EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW Quickly open 01 taskbar programs Windows 10 introduced a slew of new and convenient keyboard shortcuts.
