As the Ban Ki-Moon, the eighth Secretary-General of the United Nations said: “Investing in women is not only the right thing to do, it is the smart thing to do.”For the Authority Partners, gender diversity is one of our business priorities. In AP, close to 30% are women. While this is an excellent number for the IT industry, there is still much to do. We are involved in IT girls, the Women mentorship network, Women's Empowerment Principles program. In AP, do not differentiate between men and women in IT. We are welcoming all IT professionals. In this Podcast, Amina Karic, Vice President of Operations at AP, and Zerina Mandzo, Project Associate for IT Girls in B&H, are discussing reasons for the lack of women in the ICT sector, how do we shape one voice to fight stereotypes, how important is to engage in encouraging a change of attitude and behavior and more.This podcast is just a small step to inspire and empower more women choosing IT-related career paths.Disclaimer: The views expressed in this podcast are the speaker's own and do not reflect the view of Authority Partners.

In today's world, companies strive to achieve a blend of technology and business by supporting cross-functional and business-oriented teams in working together to deliver a piece of software. But, that kind of organizational change will not make a difference unless the value that these teams are delivering is understood, measured, and reported transparently. But how do we achieve this?Professionals usually ask: ‘Which one should we use, Scrum or DevOps?'. Does it really need to be a single-choice option, or we can do both? We are excited to explore how to combine elements of both to create information technology excellence. Our guest is a professional in this field - Ena Durmisevic, Senior Account Manager at AP.Ena manages one of the largest accounts at Authority Partners, with multiple cross-functional teams of 100+ consultants. She holds a Master's degree in Management, Information Systems, and Innovation from the London School of Economics, and she is a Certified Information Systems Auditor with Scrum certifications.Disclaimer: The views expressed in this podcast are the speaker's own and do not reflect the view of Authority Partners.

In the weeds... Granular... Dive into the details... whatever you want to call it, that's what happened on this episode inspired by real life events! Matt was hoping for a simple fix for his glasses, but what he got was a lesson in guest service and experience (and maybe even about emotional triggers). Josh and Matt go deep on this and pull out some pretty epic lessons any business can use. Either you have the solution, or you have the way to get to the solution. Your employees must be the expert to resolve all kinds of situations that will serve their guests to the best. If the guest walks away still needing to figure out how to solve their problem, that's your problem. If you go above and beyond, you must do it consistently, because you've set a new standard. A service failure will have a larger magnitude when the standard is set higher. The combination of resources, along with the desire to solve a problem is just as important as having the solution itself.

It is based on the belief that every family should have a personal plan that tailors the college admissions process to a student's long-term success.This success story began with Greg being Emir's college admissions counselor. Greg is a nationally recognized college admissions expert and author of the book ''Earning Admission: Real Strategies for Getting into Highly Selective Colleges.'' Emir founded a cryptocurrency startup earlier that ran successfully until its closure earlier this year. Along with running Big Rock Mining, he taught himself how to code in native applications and have been since. Since their first consult when Greg mentioned the idea behind Artis, they have been working together.The college admissions process in the US is long, difficult, and expensive. Admission rates for colleges and universities in the US have dropped significantly over the past 10-20 years. It’s time for disruption, and it’s time for Artis to change the way we view education.
