Using Technology to Promote Wellness

0

Helen Schifter has been a passionate advocate for ways to employ technology to promote the health and wellness movement. The movement is one that seeks to educate the public about the need to prize their health and wellness; and not sacrifice their quality of life as it pertains to their physical health, at the expense of their other endeavors.

According to Helen Schifter, this is a matter that needs to be taken seriously; and there is no indication that it has in the past, nor that the trend will change anytime soon for the better. The reason this is important is that is indeed in the public interest. The American way of life should be one where the authorities seek to create an environment where physical conditions of its citizens are as positive as humanly possible.

While tragic and unfortunate, it is also of course understandable, why the physical health of people has been thrown by the waist-side in favor of other interests that might be entrepreneurial-driven and motivated by other factors. But American needs to be a shining light and example to the rest of the world not only for its democratic values. It also needs to be a shining example to the rest of the world for having the highest average age expectancy among its citizens. A healthy public is a healthy nation.

For that reason (among other obvious ones), the government should be taking this matter much more seriously. It is a travesty of justice that there are third world countries that have in some cases more healthy citizens than does America. But as we’ve seen the food industry become increasingly commercialized; with a substantial shift toward fast and fried food, it’s understandable.

So how can this trajectory be changed you might ask? Well, technology can certainly play a pivotal role in compelling a dramatic change that will be impactful. There are sorts of products of technological innovation and development that can give rise to a proper movement seeking to promote healthier living. For instance, there should be an influencer-driven campaign that ought to be proposed backed by public and private sector forces, that seeks to advance the interests of health and wellness among the public.

The public sector has a role to play in such a prospective campaign and should not be hiding behind the veil or the excuse that this somehow is a matter that is solely up to the individual, and therefore the private sector. Once again, it is clearly in the public interest for there to be a healthier general populace. As such, the public sector should provide technological and financial backing and support to ensure the success of any such prospective campaign.

The technological advancements of recent years can also help ensure that the important message of such an influencer-driven campaign is heard loud and clear, and maximized – in terms of the number of people that hear it . How should the influencers themselves be chosen?

There are different ways to consider who the influencers ought to be. But no matter how the approach is cultivated, there needs to be a carefully crafted list based on who the public is most inclined to be receptive to, and to listen to. There lies the value of having influencers communicate this important message to the public writ large.

Technology is Responsible for Change

Helen Schifter recognizes the changes coming to industries nationwide. These changes have been expedited by the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic in some ways. And this isn’t a bad thing. On the contrary, it can be viewed through a very rather noble way and prism. Technological advancement is an area that has many proponents and supporters, and for good reason.

According to Helen Schifter, country prides itself on its capitalist approach to business – which goes hand-in-hand with changes in industry that are brought about through technological and other types of creative changes. Challenging the status quo is a healthy strategy from a commercial and industrial standpoint. It’s one that should be appreciated by observers that are both objective and subjective. Frankly, it’s something that should be championed by all.

Innovation and creativity also keeps people on their heels, which is such an important and substantial advancement and development. We can’t allow business titans to be complacent. If they are, they’ll stop persisting innovating. That’s not something that we should provide as an option. If we do, that will inevitably prove problematic for a variety of reasons.

The thriving of business and changes of industry are spurred by the idea of the need to develop and further strategize how to be different and change different spaces. Challenging the norm is the success in any industry. It’s healthy for us to have an environment that rewards innovation.

Rewarding innovation and achievement is imperative to ensuring America’s business community is appreciated but also sustainable to all. This innovation and cutting-edge approach will ensure businesses that otherwise would prove futile, will be able to last. The durability of business matters.

Let’s keep in mind that businesses are indeed people in the sense that they employ people, and are responsible for their paychecks and making payroll every two weeks. Often times, it’s easy to lose sight of that. So let’s reward those that innovate. Let’s consider the future of American commerce bright. Because, indeed it certainly is.

Technology is Changing

Ken Kurson is someone who recognizes the changes taking place in so many industries; and especially the ways that technology is contributing to the democratization of a number of industries, including the media industry. Technology is developing at such an incredibly rapid pace that the changes that are happening are not all being accounted for.

According to Ken Kurson, this democratization of industry that technology is bringing about is a healthy and constructive development. Indeed through the lens of the first amendment, the bedrock of our country’s foundation and democratic republic, it is indeed a net plus.

But let’s also be conscious of the responsibilities that come with that development. Because these developments do carry added responsibilities for so many individuals, that need to brace for it . For instance, in the media industry there needs to be significant more regulation and oversight that is taken seriously by administrators and supervising producers of news properties, in order to ensure the content is properly regulated.

For this to be happen, there first needs to be a comprehensive understanding and even education where applicable to these supervisors and regulators of the importance of ensuring hate speech is not perpetuated in any way, shape or form using their medium.

This is indeed a process; but we believe strongly that there’s opportunity to be able to get to that point, with the proper acumen and prudent approach, taken. It needs to however be an intelligent approach. It needs to be one that is taken seriously and is not treated casually. Only then, will there be a serious understanding of the stakes in play.

American innovation is not only remarkable for what it has done for commerce; but also for what it has done to affect democratic change. There’s confidence that the public places in press barons, and the supervising producers and editors they put in place, to get this right. It’s paramount they do. It must be taken seriously; and they must expend proper amounts of resources to get it done. For if not, the consequences could be devastating.

Technology Redefining Industry

0

So many industries have been subject to technological innovation over the last decade. According to Helen Lee Schifter this is a trend that will only continue over time. In fact, based on the statistical data that is out and has been borne out over time continually, there’s no stopping the spread of technology.

To be clear, technological development is a very constructive trend; but it’s one that has to nonetheless be used carefully and with tact. Strategy is always a device that needs to be employed efficiently, no matter the industry or area that it is being used for. But technology is also evolving – and the trend lines that are being noticed, are quite significant.

Helen Lee Schifter uses technology to share her insights, thoughts and viewpoints. As a writer that blogs frequently on Thrive Global and a number of other outlets; she is able to use technology to actively share her written work. Of course, before the whole notion of cyberspace even existed, there was only print media that could be used as a means for authors to write and share their thoughts.

This not only made it more challenging for publishers to get information disseminated in proper order; but it also placed quite a significant onus on the writers themselves. They had to limit themselves to typing with a typewriter, or even with a pencil or other form of writing utensil.

In today’s media environment, thanks to the digital and technological innovation that’s taken place, that is no longer a concern of any sort. Writers now have platforms on the web courtesy of the development of the blogosphere. Furthermore, they have the ability to share their work in a nanosecond using any of the social media tools that exist, and can easily be placed at their disposal.

Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin are all used by writers in an effort to share their work with general audiences and the public at large. This is an enormous relief for many writers who would otherwise be seeking to place their items and get them published in newspapers. Instead of being at the mercy of editors or publishers, they now have the unique opportunity to make an impact in sharing their work themselves.

It’s totally redefined the way writers of all stripes can produce their content, and also share that same content. It’s democratized the media space in a way that truly is advantageous to young writers that wish to take a stab at sharing and producing their work. There’s little to no oversight or supervision on the web; and they are able to produce valuable content for whatever personally tailored audiences they wish.

There also aren’t controls that exist in terms of limitations that would otherwise be imposed on the type or frequency of the content they’re disseminating. These are all inherent values and advantages that are a by-product and clear function of the changes in the way technology has now changed media for writers.

When you look at some terrific writers of today, they’ve been found and discovered precisely because of the type of convenience that technology affords them. It’s not just about producing and publishing their written work, that technology is able to facilitate in so many cases. It’s also about creating an audience and being able to engage that audience, and maintain a relationship with that audience.

Using social profiles writers (and through their websites), can easily with their keypads, share constant and regular updates with their fans, supporters and readers. This type of ease never existed before technology came around. It of course is a net positive. But there are also disadvantages, as some writers have pointed out.

Some writers prize and value their privacy a tremendous amount. They haven’t been able to cherish and maintain that privacy since these changes have been wrought due to technologies. With Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and the rest, audiences and followers are able to follow the lives of many writers.

If we’re going to be earnest, of course many writers are forthcoming on these profiles, lending their readers and audiences a peak into their lives that can be quite intimate at times. But once that veil of privacy is lifted, it’s increasingly challenging to shut back down. And this is a serious issue that writers need to keep in mind before aggressively tackling the usage of any of the aforementioned platforms and programs.

The Rapid Pace of Advancement in Technology

0

When Ken Kurson has spent time observing the technology space throughout his career, he’s encountered and been a potent observer of the incredibly rapid pace at which technology has advanced and developed. These advancements and developments have shown no signs of slowing down. They’ve also dramatically changed the ways certain industries now conduct business – and in a commercial context, as well.

The changes in some industries have been dramatic. Artificial intelligence has been a popular device that’s now developed a great amount of interest as a consequence of many years of consecutive technological development. Technology does indeed play a role in helping achieve these various milestones in advancement.

Ken Kurson believes that there is bound to be continued and aggressive changes coming to the technology industry. These changes are a product of broader shifts from manual labor to a reliance and dependence on technological programming to do the same work. But this same work can often be done at a far more rapid pace, and even more efficiently. In fact, it is indeed the case that in some cases the quality of the work-product is also uncompromised.

But people have to proceed with caution when it comes to their management of technological programming in the work-place. There are certain areas where there isn’t enough regulation when it comes to technological implementation. Of these areas, none is as significant as the field of education.

Over time, we’ve seen many public sector partnerships with technology companies in an effort to relieve some of the stresses that entities in the private sector would otherwise be feeling and experiencing. These collaborations between public and private sector entities are actually enviable in many cases. They are models to be emulated. After all, we cannot depend on government bureaucracy for everything.

But there also needs to be oversight that is regulated over these partnerships. When technology is imported into academic settings, it is often for the purpose of making the lives of teachers, academics and institutional faculty easier. The burden is significantly eased, if they are able to successfully navigate these waters, in an appropriate fashion.

But there are issues that can arise with technology’s implementation in sensitive areas like education. We must be weary of these areas. For example, some academic institutions might seek to employ technology as a way of reducing the ratio between staff/faculty/teachers and students. After all, employing less faculty significantly reduces the burden from a financial standpoint on these institutions.

All in all, technology has been a net plus in its import and value to most, if not all industries. But we must proceed with caution as a society. Our government officials must also continue persisting in their regulation and oversight of the continued importation of technology into the private sector world under government accountable control.

Has Coronavirus Tipped the Scales Toward Debit Cards?

0

The coronavirus has changed the business landscape in all sorts of ways. One shift that hasn’t gotten much attention: how it’s changing customers’ payment preferences.

You might have seen it at your own register: Cash — which was already losing popularity — rarely gets used. Credit cards are losing steam because consumers are afraid of debt. In their place, debit cards are becoming the go-to payment methods.

What’s behind the shift toward debit? Pop the hood on this trend, and you’ll see 10 factors at play:

  • Health concerns

Even though health experts say the coronavirus is unlikely to spread through cash exchange, many businesses have chosen to bypass cash altogether. Brand image is vital in today’s world, so every company wants to be seen as doing all it can to protect its customers.

Debit cards don’t pass through dozens of hands. Most consumers are more comfortable with handling their own card than trusting people who use paper currency to wash their hands. Can you blame them?

  • Penny-pinching

When you pay with cash, you typically get change back. Sales taxes ensure even products priced at round numbers result in odd totals. The trouble is that coins are difficult to keep track of and cumbersome to actually spend.

Debit cards have the power of cash without the inconvenience. Virtually every company has a card reader these days, and consumers are directing every spare dime to their savings accounts. 

  • Fear of debt

Many Americans have thousands of dollars in credit card debt. That can be daunting at any time, but it’s downright scary during a recession.

The coronavirus has raised unemployment to record levels. Even people who are still employed are constantly worried about losing their job. Losing one’s income makes paying debts awfully difficult.

No wonder debit card transactions are growing 3.5 times faster than credit card swipes. Consumers know that debit cards can’t put them in debt: If their account doesn’t have enough money to make the transaction, their card simply gets declined.  

  • Growth in e-commerce

E-commerce sales are 40 percent higher than they were before the coronavirus hit American shores. As online shopping increases in response to social distancing, so does debit card usage. 

It’s impossible to pay online with cash. A debit card lets you buy groceries online, shop on Amazon, and pay for services remotely. 

What about credit cards? Some vendors, such as governments and utility companies, either don’t accept credit cards or charge an additional fee. For those digital transactions, debit cards may be the only option. 

  • Easy transaction tracking

Remember when your parents taught you how to balance a checkbook? Keeping track of what you spend on paper can be tedious and time-consuming. Miss one purchase made with cash, and your monthly balance won’t add up. 

Because debit card transactions are logged in an online dashboard, they make it easier for consumers to keep an eye on their finances. The coronavirus has given everyone a reason to budget carefully. With a debit card, that becomes a lot easier. 

  • Speed and convenience

If you dared to venture outside during stay-at-home orders, you probably did your best to get back home as quickly as possible. Why put yourself at risk for longer than necessary?

Making payments with cash takes time. The payer has to count out the bills, only for them to be counted again by the person receiving them. 

Debit cards are faster and easier than paying with cash. Swipe it, enter your PIN, grab the receipt, and you’re good to go. 

  • Direct deposit

Thanks to the coronavirus, remote work has gone from a rarity to the norm. Many high-profile companies have decided to extend the arrangement even after the coronavirus ends. 

When employees aren’t at the office, they can’t pick up a physical check. Instead of mailing paychecks, many business leaders are opting for direct deposit. 

Direct deposit requires a checking account, which typically comes with a debit card. Debit cards make it possible to spend that income without withdrawing cash. 

  • Mobile payment options

Another trend that’s growing, thanks to the coronavirus, is mobile payments. With these systems, consumers merely tap their phone at the register. And because they touch their phones for all sorts of other reasons, there’s no added risk of picking up the virus by paying on a mobile device.

Many entrepreneurs are big fans of mobile payments as well. Not only does the model minimize human contact, but it can also bring a new generation of consumers in the door. 

  • Round-up features

The coronavirus reminded America that saving money is important. With no money to fall back on, an unexpected recession can go from difficult to devastating. 

Some debit cards offer a round-up feature, which moves money into a linked savings account every time a transaction is made. Consumers don’t want to worry about scheduling transfers between their checking and savings accounts, and some of them don’t have money left over at the end of the month, anyway. 

  • Reduced risk of loss or fraud

Right now, many consumers are in a precarious financial position. Losing $20 might not be a big deal in normal times, but it might make or break their budget right now. 

When cash is lost or stolen, it’s usually gone forever. Debit cards can be frozen at the click of a button. What’s more, many debit cards now have zero fraud liability, meaning that any money spent by someone who wasn’t authorized to do so is not the responsibility of the cardholder. 

Think about it, and it’s not so surprising that consumers are gravitating toward debit cards at a time like this. They’re easy to apply for and acquire, and there’s little risk of going into debt or being robbed when carrying a debit card. 

Plus, debit transactions are better for business owners. Less cash means fewer runs to the bank and shorter lines at the register. Interchange fees are typically lower on debit cards than they are for credit cards. Why not give your customers what they want?

Technology Is Revolutionizing Healthcare

0

Nadia Kiderman has served the healthcare community for decades in various capacities. She has lectured on various subjects concerning the ways the healthcare industry must adapt to the changing circumstances of the world – in scientific and technological ways. One of Kiderman’s primary concerns has been the seeming inability of so many in the healthcare space to take the baton and charge, in order to develop the sort of reform that the industry has deserved for awhile now. 

Nadia Kiderman has been clear about the ways that the healthcare industry needs to view the future; and the ways it should be properly going about changing the way it  used to do things. The archaic and antiquated ways are ways of the past. They are backward; and it is time for a proper revival and revolution of sorts to be led by good-faith actors in the healthcare industry. Unfortunately, given the tremendous amounts of profit driven members of the industry, this sort of revival has yet to happen.

The reality is that the healthcare industry’s purpose and mission is to ensure the preservation and survival of the health of our people. Few things can be as noble; and as fundamentally important. For this reason, it  begs the question as to why there wasn’t any real and substantive efforts made previously in the interest of the betterment of healthcare patients and residents of facilities. 

The lack of regulatory reform and oversight on the part of our lawmakers and their agencies that should be situated properly in order to exercise this level of regulation, is certainly part of the problem. The onus and burden falls on their shoulders, to ensure that there is proper compliance on the part of healthcare facilities to ensure the highest quality of care is procured and provided. Unfortunately however, this has not been the case, traditionally. 

This is a fact that is not lost on the part of elder care advocates. The fact of the matter is that the healthcare industry as a whole has been backward for quite some time – and this problem, certainly did not start yesterday. There needs to be more of an education provided to staff members – particularly those in administrative capacities, to ensure that they recognize the value of how to implement technology to advance their causes and interests. 

Technologies should be employed for the betterment of care and to ensure that the quality of care is enhanced; and that staff members are able to go about surgical procedures and the like, in ways that are superior to the mechanisms they currently are using. This is the value of technology. It  can make a process that might be stale and staid, and have it  run far more efficiently and expeditiously. Resources need to be preserved in a way that’s meaningful and understandable as well. 

Nadia Kiderman establishes that we as a society need to do more to ensure that the technological advancements that are being employed in other commercial sectors are also utilized to the best of anyone’s ability in the healthcare sector. The healthcare sector has perhaps the most vital of purposes; and yet it  is routinely glossed over when it  comes to oversight and other related capabilities, in favor of other interests. Technology can be used to make this sector and industry run more efficiently. It is for the betterment of the public interest that this be done in a methodical and strategic way. It  must be done proactively. We all have a responsibility to ensure it is done properly.  There are many tech healthcare jobs in demand these days. Learn about some here.

Technology is a Net Positive in the Healthcare Space

Helen Lee Schifter promotes healthy living in all of her writing, in a consistent manner and fashion. Schifter believes strongly in the value that technology can have in promoting and enhancing a healthier lifestyle for all. The reality is that technology has been used and applied in a variety of different ways toward many sectors. But it’s in the healthcare sector, where technology has had the most meaningful impact of all. The effects that its adaptation has had are numerous and unquantifiable. Consider for a moment how many machines in hospitals or any type of medical facilities today, are able to used most efficiently due to the technological advents and advances. It’s truly remarkable. 

Helen Lee Schifter shares her insights about this evolution that has led to constructive effects and consequences on the healthcare industry. Within the context of the Coronavirus pandemic especially, these advancements have had such amazingly beneficial consequences on ensuring the preservation of the physical and emotional well being of our nation’s citizens. 

The United States has been at the forefront of incorporating technology into sectors such as the healthcare sector, to its benefit. It  has helped our prized medical professionals and emergency medical practitioners with their ability to care for their residents and patients. Even when it  comes to performing operations and surgical procedures, in some cases technological devices that are now available can make such procedures not only more expeditious but also more likely to yield a positive outcome for the patient. 

It’s for this reason (among a number of others), that if you compare the way operations in the medical field were treated before the advent and subsequent advances of technology, to the way they are treated currently, the contrast is stark and clear as can be. Healthcare workers and professionals – including doctors, are able to procure premium level treatment in this technological era of rapid advancement. 

The way that technology is facilitating an enhancement of healthcare treatment has been a prime example and illustration of the positive ways that technology can be used to benefit society. It  is truly impressive that it  can continue to be used in constructive ways to expedite processes; enhance the quality of training of many work-forces; and truly redefine manual labor, as we know it . 

These transformations of industries have in some cases had some negative consequences. As we’ve seen with the broader conversation around artificial intelligence, there is less of a need for machinery and for manual labor as we continue advancing with technology. This has been the counterargument to those contending vociferously, of the great value of the technological innovation of our time. The counterargument seems to be that we shouldn’t view these technological changes favorably because it  leads to a reduced size of our work forces; and that people as a consequence, are losing their jobs and employment opportunities. 

Helen Lee Schifter concludes that while there has to be a balance struck between the two extremes, it  is also important for us all to recognize the inherent value that technology brings to the table. As industries continue having technological advancement applied to them, there will undoubtedly continue to be changes that will unfold. But through all these changes, it  is also incumbent upon us to adapt accordingly. There’s no reason for there to be a reduced workforce as a consequence of these changes if we invest efforts, energy and resources into viewing these changes as positive opportunities for change, as opposed to cheap ways out of employing people. Actors that are conducting and comporting themselves in bad faith will continue to seek pretexts and excuses for continuing to engage in misconduct and misbehavior. But those that are acting in good-faith and seeking to lead lives filled with goodness, while succeeding professionally, will be able to continue seeing this technological boon for what it  is – an opportunity for positive and transformative change, leading a revolution that can redefine the way so many different industries operate. 

Technology Can Reform Industries for the Better

Ken Kurson has worked with different technology platforms in his extensive career serving an array of different interesting industries. Technology can be a very constructive tool, if used in the proper manner. Like anything else in life, it  can also be used for less than positive purposes. But the key is to use technology to get a message out and across a variety of platforms to the widest audience possible. For this, technology can be a key ingredient in the success of a broad swathe of different social justice campaigns. If you have a program that you are looking to advance, and an agenda rooted in reform and positive change, technology can be immensely useful. 

Ken Kurson posits that this technological advancement has been a net-plus for many industries – especially the retail industry’s transition toward e-commerce. When you look at the Coronavirus pandemic for example, due to social distancing guidelines, people are justifiably frightened and concerned about physical contact. As such, what technology has provided them is a platform in the e-commerce world, to be able to purchase goods and inventory without the concern of physically engaging in commercial activity.

Before technological advancements and thereby prior to the existence of such unique and innovative tools, people had to go to brick and mortar stores in order to purchase clothing, products or any other form of inventory. Today, they can simply go online to Amazon and any other e-commerce platforms and handle the purchasing that way. Consistent with social distancing guidelines in the current Coronavirus environment that we find ourselves in, this affords people the opportunity to purchase goods and inventory while maintaining the peace of mind that they are in full compliance with social distancing guidelines. 

The e-commerce juggernaut and the development of the space is just yet another example of a constructive utility and value that is available to people based on technological innovation. And as we continue coping and adapting to the changing circumstances that the Coronavirus pandemic has wrought, these sorts of innovations are very helpful and beneficial. Indeed, some may argue that before technological advancement, the Coronavirus would have caused mass devastation the likes of which the world has never seen. 

In the absence of technology, there would also not be advancement and development as aggressively as we’ve seen in the healthcare space. The healthcare space as proven to be yet another industry that has been drastically affected in the most positive of ways, due to technology implemented in a way that expedites certain procedures. This has been a clear illustration of a way that technology has been meaningfully adapted and applied in a sector that has literally led to improving people’s lives and physical health. 

Ken Kurson shares this view and has been a passionate advocate of the need for technology to be employed as a constructive device in a diverse pool of different industries. If applied correctly, it  can have great reformative effects on whichever industry might be the target one. For example, there is an interest on the part of those in industries that are still using archaic and antiquated tools to transition to more contemporary methodologies. As has been proven by its application in the healthcare sector, technology should and can be relied upon in order to create the sort of transformative change that we can all appreciate.
