White Paper: Trends in Training your Extended Enterprise ...
A survey was sent to 10,000 directors of training to find out how companies are extending a learning management system (LMS) outside of their corporate walls – to the “extended enterprise” of partners and customers.

Like others in the tech-journalism business, we here at Xconomy tend to pore over the latest statistics about the entrepreneurial economy pretty obsessively: how much money venture firms are raising and investing from quarter to quarter; how much they dole out to each new startup in their portfolios; how much these portfolio companies eventually return to their investors through mergers, acquisitions, or public offerings. But what if none of this really matters? What if it turned out that the number of new companies created by entrepreneurs is pretty much the same every year—and that things like how much money venture ...

She works hard for the money, or so the song says, but most women of color are having a difficult time building wealth with the money they make. For those who are familiar with historic racial disparities in wealth and asset accumulation, this comes as no surprise: For every dollar of wealth the average white family has, the average family of color has 16 cents. But for women, it's even worse. Justin Shaw/Special to The Commercial Appeal Pamela Segrest is proof that assets can be accumulated. She is an auditor for a local company and has started two businesses -- a beauty salon and a travel agency. "I didn't ...
