Let AI discover values

Image
To continue to this analytical journey, a large set of content can be overviewed by AI routines. There is a typical kind of tool for the corresponding content type that you have. Let’s assume that you have news about the market in the form of text. This information can be derived from websites, studies, reports, blogs, books, or social networks. The later language processing AI robots are trained to understand the meaning similarities, used to discover topics, keywords, entities, measure sentiment, and do much more. For sake of simplicity imagine that you recorded behavior data and can be compared to collective behavior measures of a group based on the content that they generate. Therefore, the main properties of the content are efficiently described with the help of AI summarization, top list of keywords, and topics. The following chart illustrates how such results make up a summary board. Compare your data to the community Sure, you can collect information with diligence and loo...

Values that count

Image
A good daily routine starts with a good impulse. After having a basic clarity of personal goals, we need to fine-tune those ones in the frame of the coming day. Still, there are many things that we can’t predict but leave that one to nature. Rather, try to predict your intended actions as a reflection of the most important values that are present in the flow of our life. To match the planned actions with the values it is needed to keep track of both. That doesn’t take big energy if strict control is made part of the daily routine. Rather than elaborating this small piece of the action as part of the constant habit, you can be positively addicted to it. While this piece of the can be the first event when you have a sense of how your plan works in real life. Consider that you have timely data about your inner compliance with your honest values. This data is nothing more just say yes or no to simple question whether you still believe in the goals being the majors drive of actions. Let ...

What have I learned from my 12 years old son during the holidays?

Image
I have just arrived home from a long trip and dropped in the room of my son for a chat before he fell asleep. He told me stories about what happened with him in the school. He performed really well and I become curious about his method of learning. I knew that he does not spend much time with learning at home. He has so many other interesting things to do. He revealed that he prepares himself in the school right before the class then he listens carefully to the teacher. To the end of the lecture he is in the state that the lesson is memorized. So, at home remain only few things to recap. I thought that this principle can be leveraged well at work, too. I immediately remembered the lengthy meetings when we spent a lot of time to recall the known facts which were communicated in advance. During my many years in the business I faced such situations when most of the participants did not prepare for the meeting. It is not only a disrespect to others but root cause of huge loss of time...

Values that motivate your work - update

Image
# FlipMotivation started to measure the key values that motivate the healthy, creative and collaborative teamwork. There is a voting process that we support online. Be part of the learning experience and read our regular news. Try to apply our fresh value set, but if you think that your motivation is driven by different values just raise you voice and build up with us a better langue, a fresh map of purposes in the digitally seasoned business life. We spent great time together online and our virtual team made great job last year. This year it is to be continued. We purified the learning process for business purpose clarification.

Our observation is that common language can change by time but it is relatively stable if we compare to the fluctuation of daily business context. So values are important, we can identify them by questioning our purpose, goal, longer term interest. Finall...

Discovering reality in business

Image
We developed a new software product that could replace paperwork on field with simple electronic worksheets. We realized that large amount of information was generated about the work including the business transactional data and also employee behaviour. Our customers got aware of that and started to ask more and more reports that they can see using this information right in our software. We started to extend our application with report services but it become more and more difficult to handle efficiently this part of our service. There were many complaints about the quality of report and the service consumed far more resources from us than it was reasonable to invest. We started to find a partner who was good at business data visualization and was flexible enough to fit the scope of our business model. In the same time our customers had to be convinced about the reasonable scope of reporting to adjust the trade-off between benefits and costs. With switching off our own reporting mo...

Do we measure productivity?

Image
New processes, new applied methods need economical justification. Typical example is when software are introduced to the work group so that it makes their life easier, they can work more productive. Usually, the mandate is already in place when the users see the new software or hear a non alterable fact about rolled-out new business functions. The nice and optimum way to see the new business application around should be naturally supported by productivity measurement as far as the improvement of productivity is goal of the company. Some of direct or indirect influence factors of better business performance shall be taking into consideration anyway. Direct influence on productivity The hard factors, tangible effects are the classics like time, saving resources and to higher the quality. Measuring shall not be difficult but always comes something in between that interferes our plan for transparency and measurement. Loosing the focus at the end : we are most of the time in hurry, ther...

Nice environment, motivating project goal, good people. This stunning condition sounds very good when we plan a new project. We come together in places which is organized and ornamented according to the new standards. We can feel like a startup company when we kick off a new service development. After happy start there can occur some discrepancy that we did not expect for. Is is really a surprise or did we experience this degrade of motion most of the times? Unfortunately the real life can surprise us and if it can it does.  If we check an average day of a company from in wider context, we realize the general digitalization trends are curving it independent of what is the business profile, industry type. The problem solving related to whole scale of business subjects (e.g. software development, organizational change, vendor selection, knowledge sharing) are equally dependent on the applied business software, organization management, corporate assets including the culture itse...
