Ideas for yet another restart of a new Semester 2018

Each semester is just 10 weeks, remember that! Here are some quick re-start up ideas that I have for this semester:-

1) Relook at what is the Contributions I could make realistically
  • How RIAM is able to be used to enhance decision making in Board Room setting
  • How RIAM is versatile and able to be used for various types of decision making
  • Research Framework on Decision Making
2) Start writing the Chapters - the Story, the Quotes, the Styles
  • Start drafting the Chapters and Content
  • Set the style, flow of stories, big picture
  • Get the witty quotes for every chapter
3) Write One Paper about RIAM - Anything
  • Applications of RIAM in various spheres of work
4) Convert RIAM Spreadsheets into an App
  • Give it a try - Andriod, IOS or both
5) Come up with List of Comparables for Decisionmaking Variables
  • Consider to use UN-Habitat Sustainable Development Variables and put into spreadsheets for projects considerations
  • Consider daily living decisions that RIAM could be used and come up with the criteria to think through
6) Meet my Supervisors at least 2-3 times
  • Request to meet up even if it is just for a good cuppa of tea/coffee or a chat
