| katota territory specific | comprising the following components: 1)katota universe 2)katota world 3)katota resident, 4)katota project 5)katota cottage project please see the individual definitions of each. | added 10 years ago |
| katota territories general | normally, a country with national borders, but when its population is too large it could be divided into smaller territories, or when too small, countries could be grouped to form a feasible territory. the territory described in any katota-inspired legal contract will be the only territory that is legally binding. each territory has an identical structure to effectively serve its communities. | added 10 years ago |
| collaborative synchronous trade portal | unlike conventional trade platforms with their inherent inefficiencies, the collaborative synchronous trade portal is a white labelled entrance to any trade platform. it means it could collaborate with any trade platform while synchronizing product offers with hitherto vital, but unknown imperatives for sustainable trade, (e.g. specific compliance and proficiency indexing as well as cost-to-performance benchmarks. this unique feature enables procurers (business to business) and buyers (business to consumers) to make justifiable best-for-me decisions based on best-value-for-money indexing – constantly being updated while instigating a fierce competitive climate with performance improvement proposals. | added 10 years ago |
| the primary motive | to create a better life for all, creating a better world (as defined), is the prime motive of the katota philosophy but driven from a free market platform with profit in mind so that there will be a constant drive for excellence. however, it differs from the conventional profit motive, in that it is service orientated, fuelled by love. the first has as ultimate goal, maximum profit. from a business management perspective, maximum profit as a point of departure could be short-sighted (e.g. following an incorrect pricing policy or where customer relations are strained by decisions that hound profit as their foremost goal). the latter wishes to genuinely serve and make all purchasing decisions transparent through a collaborative synchronous trade portal. | added 10 years ago |
| performance and profit improvement proposal | a performance improvement proposal contains fundamental management information of significant strategic, tactical, and operational impact because it is actionable with scientifically correct prioritized remedies for changing behavior and achieving pre-determined goals in the shortest possible time. the profit improvement proposal follows indicating what the profit loss is if no remedies are applied and what the expected profit gain is if remedies are diligently applied and monitored. without this diligence it is impossible to achieve the primary motive. | added 10 years ago |
| copious facilitation | whenever reference is made to entities being transformed into oaks, the following definition in its full context applies. these are organizations that adhere to the: (i) katota philosophy (which is god-inspired), pollinated by extraordinary (ii) investment capital for the benefit of globally dispersed comprehensive (iii) structures, supported by a (iv) decision support system that comprises (a) exceptional methodology (for scientifically sound decision support while addressing hard-core practical challenges), carried by (b) cutting-edge technology for cost-effectiveness, and driven by a (c) unique dynamic strategy for swift acceptance and enthusiastic cooperation by all while all activities are executed by (v) passionate and well-trained people with a divine calling who are supported by value managers providing performance and profit improvement proposals for their business decisions. | added 10 years ago |
| value managers | selected managers within oaks will be trained as value managers (with the status of fellow, associate, or professional, depending on their level of education and skills) with the assignment of communicating fundamental management information of significant strategic, tactical, and operational impact on their oaks. value managers (internal) are in continuous liaison with alliance managers (external), whose task it is to align internal inability (need) with external ability, thereby contributing to any business or non-business entity transforming into an oak by copious facilitation. | added 10 years ago |
| katota community | the first community is the market an oak serves, e.g., for a central oak, it is its resident norma; for a resident oakland, it is its projects; for a project oakland and its cottages oaklands, it is their markets. the second community is the co-workers in an entity (not called employees or subordinates). the third community comprises the outcast (despised / unloved) and the poor who need the help of others who are stronger to help themselves – often the forgotten community. every entity has a duty to invest in its third community in a formal and structured manner, because the prime motive is not selfish profit at all cost. the pillar will provide guidance on how to do this effectively by training oak managers to become value mangers. | added 10 years ago |
| branded world | the application of the katota philosophy by central normas, each under its own unique registered brand with a global right to trade in dedicated programs across borders through resident normas, project and cottage normas, creating one of many branded worlds which eventually lead to a better world, territory by territory. | added 10 years ago |
| better world | a better world is created by the synthesis of many branded worlds created by dedicated programs collectively. dedicated programs are globally inspired, but applied at residence level through resident, project, and cottage normas, creating a branded world on grass roots level, but all put together create a better world where the katota way of life creates a better life for all. | added 10 years ago |
| foundational documents | the katota foundational documents comprise five main documents, and more could be added as and when required. they are published on various public domains. they require reading with an applied mind in the following order of priority: (i) the k1_blueprint (explaining the katota philosophy and general principles); (ii) the k2_business case (how the principles will be applied from a business point of view); (iii) the k3_model (the structure within which the katota philosophy will be applied and deployed); (iv) the k4_guidelines for systruct but specifically for the governance of katota foundations (as ethical managers on behalf of investors) and resident normas (as master licensors); and (v) k5_setting-up procedures. without compliance to the katota philosophy, it is impossible to participate in applying the katota philosophy for creating a better world. it presupposes accreditation and licensing once formal training has been completed. in order to retain accreditation and licensing, with the ability to make management decisions within the systruct, annual refresher courses are compulsory. please visit www.meribah.org | added 10 years ago |
| katota concept | it is a combination of two words taken from tswana (an african language) ‘ka tota’, meaning ‘the real’. the katota philosophy is developed around the concept of the real. katota creates reality in all aspects of life. the word of god (god is love) is undoubtedly the basis of reality. the application of the katota philosophy is described in the katota foundational documents and is simply the application of the word of god (love) from a capitalistic point of departure, driven by a service motive as explained in the relevant paragraph. | added 10 years ago |
