Az egyes országok, térségek és helyi közösségek napjainkban számos új, komplex kihívással kerülnek szembe egy dinamikusan változó, ugyanakkor gyakran kiszámíthatatlan és bizonytalanságokkal terhelt ...környezetben. Egy képzeletbeli SWOT-analízis minden bizonnyal erosségnek tételezné a közigazgatás hagyományos és megkerülhetetlen funkcióit és adaptációs képességeit, gyengeségnek a merev, az innováció és a megújulás felé gyakran csak nehezen mozdítható, helyenként tole független kényszerpályákkal terhelt belso világát, lehetoségnek a 21. században felgyorsuló digitalizáció, valamint a vele járó mesterséges intelligencia, az automatizmusok és a robotika csatasorba állítását, veszélynek pedig a jól ismert globális folyamatokat, az éghajlatváltozástól kezdve a világjárványokon át a háborús konfliktusokig és geopolitikai változásokig.
Through a unique set of timings, a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis of a nursing department was conducted with the staff nurses of a large medical center in late 2019 ...and again in 2022. The intent of the 2019 analysis was bifold, to obtain rich input from nursing staff to apprise the 2020 Nursing Strategic Plan and to inform the hospital-wide core councils and the nursing unit councils on focused project work identified as Weaknesses and Threats. When the pandemic hit, work on strategic planning was paused to manage the unparalleled impact that COVID-19 had on the organization. In 2022, nursing leadership realized they had an opportunity to repeat the SWOT analysis, not only to inform the 2023 Nursing Strategic Plan but also to determine whether the perceptions of staff nurses regarding the SWOT in the nursing department had changed postpandemic. A thematic analysis provided the structure to analyze the perceptions of nurses pre- and postpandemic. This article presents our reflections for nurse leaders to consider when addressing the positive (Strengths/Opportunities) and negative (Weaknesses/Threats) perceptions of nurses in a postpandemic health care environment.
The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, originally designed for observing ocean and inland water bodies, can be a valuable tool for mapping the topography of intertidal flats. This ...study provides the first demonstration of SWOT's ability to measure intertidal topography using simultaneous interferometric acquisitions. Observations acquired between April and July 2023, during the calibration/validation (CALVAL) phase of the mission, were used. SWOT-derived intertidal Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) were generated from level-2 High-Rate Pixel Cloud (L2_HR_PIXC) products and compared to airborne and UAV LiDAR-derived DEMs. Our results indicate a high reliability of the SWOT observations with a mean absolute error lower than 0.49 m, reaching 0.13 m in specific areas. This validation confirms SWOT's contribution for coastal studies beyond water level mapping, showcasing its broader applicability in the monitoring and management of coastal and estuarine environments.
•SWOT can effectively map intertidal topography, expanding the mission scientific applications.•SWOT enables intertidal mapping thanks to the strong backscattering in these regions.•SWOT-derived intertidal topography matches LiDAR benchmarks (airborne and UAV).•Root Mean Squared Errors were below 20 cm over the UAV-covered strip.•SWOT provides accurate topography from single acquisitions at low tide.

ChatGPT is an AI tool that has sparked debates about its potential implications for education. We used the SWOT analysis framework to outline ChatGPT's strengths and weaknesses and to discuss its ...opportunities for and threats to education. The strengths include using a sophisticated natural language model to generate plausible answers, self-improving capability, and providing personalised and real-time responses. As such, ChatGPT can increase access to information, facilitate personalised and complex learning, and decrease teaching workload, thereby making key processes and tasks more efficient. The weaknesses are a lack of deep understanding, difficulty in evaluating the quality of responses, a risk of bias and discrimination, and a lack of higher-order thinking skills. Threats to education include a lack of understanding of the context, threatening academic integrity, perpetuating discrimination in education, democratising plagiarism, and declining high-order cognitive skills. We provide agenda for educational practice and research in times of ChatGPT.

Purpose – This study aims to identify and analyze the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats as well as strategies related to micro, small, and medium enterprises (SME) support in the ...development of the halal industry and the Sharia economy in Indonesia.Methodology – This study used a mixed-method approach in the form of a sequential exploratory design with strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis.Findings – This study highlights the vast number of SMEs and their workforce as significant strengths. However, the lack of digital technology integration among SMEs is a weakness. Opportunities include a large Muslim population and availability of institutions willing to provide loans. However, threats emerge from low awareness among Indonesian Muslims regarding halal products. The proposed strategies include enhancing financing facilities, government subsidy programs, awareness campaigns, ecosystem strengthening, and socialization efforts.Implications – The findings offer practical insights for supporting SMEs, including improving access to financing and increasing awareness among Indonesian Muslims. Socially, the study suggests potential benefits such as fostering economic growth, creating employment opportunities, and promoting the production and consumption of halal products. Overall, this study provides valuable guidance for policymakers and stakeholders interested in enhancing SME support in Indonesia's halal industry and Islamic economy, with implications for economic and social development.Originality – The study's original contribution lies in its comprehensive analysis of SMEs in Indonesia within the context of the halal industry and Islamic economy.
