Published Wed, 12 Feb 2025 10:50:33 GMT

Deloitte Consulting, a business consulting and services platform has recently released an online magazine that discusses its latest engagements, trends, and surveys. In one of its most recent releases, the company discusses its newest operating model for work and the workforce known as “the skills-based organization.”According to a global Deloitte survey of more than 1,200 professionals, organizations are increasingly experimenting with what they hope will lead to new innovative ideas and services.

Read more Letters to the Editor.Drought or not, statemust conserve waterRe: “Newsom denies obvious: State no longer in drought” (Page A6, March 28).George Skelton’s column saying that the governor denies that the state is no longer in a drought is meaningless. Skelton seems to want the governor to officially proclaim it’s over. But why do that and what will that accomplish?We had a deepening-water crisis even before the drought. If the governor declares what Skelton wants that could signal a return to the past practice of waste. Our crisis is of a magnitude that, in my opinion, we seem to need a four- to five-year water reserve to make it through the next drought, which could return next year.We are in no position to declare anything. This abundance of rain is just a reprieve. If the governor should say anything, it is that we are changing practices, policies and starting new projects to sustain California’s future.Ma...

A federal court judge has lambasted Google for deceptive tactics in a high-stakes court case, with California Attorney General Rob Bonta also attacking the technology behemoth for “egregious behavior.”The judge’s excoriation came in a multi-lawsuit legal action involving dozens of states, including California, accusing the Mountain View-based digital advertising giant of monopolizing the distribution of apps that use Google’s Android operating system.Judge James Donato found Google broke federal court rules, and potentially weakened the antitrust case against the company, by auto-deleting internal employee messages the firm was obligated to hand over to the states and other plaintiffs as evidence.“Google has tried to downplay the problem and displayed a dismissive attitude ill tuned to the gravity of its conduct,” Donato wrote in his decision Tuesday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco.The plaintiffs, in a court filing Monday, had claimed Goog...
