SDA camporee a huge success

The Inter-American Division (IAD) of Seventh-day Adventists’s Fifth IAD Pathfinders Camporee ended recently and from all indications the five-day event was a huge success.

Hundreds of Pathfinders from more than 52 countries participated in the event held at the Trelawny Multipurpose Stadium, a first for Jamaica and the Seventh-day Adventist Church here, as well as the island in general, received high praises for its organisation and management.

Here are photo highlights:

Fix it before you speed it up — choosing the first thing to automate, and the data work that comes first
Every week this column shows what AI can do for a finance team. This week, the order of operations. Most small businesses automate the part customers can see and leave the part the money runs through untouched, which is roughly backwards.
