The Strategy Skills Podcast: Management Consulting | Strategy, Operations & Implementation | Critical Thinking

Welcome to Strategy Skills episode 525, an interview with the authors of The ROI of Thought Leadership: Calculating the Value that Sets Organizations Apart, Cindy Anderson and Anthony Marshall.   In this episode, Cindy and Anthony discuss how their work at IBM shaped their understanding of thought leadership's value in building client relationships and explain the quantifiable benefits of thought leadership. They also address how AI is impacting thought leadership creation and consumption, and the distinction between thought leadership and sales content. They stress the need for independent, data-driven content to build trust and relationships, not for direct sales. Their insights stem from decades of combined experience at organizations like the Project Management Institute and IBM's Institute for Business Value.   Cindy Anderson is the Chief Marketing Officer/Global Lead for Engagement & Eminence at the IBM Institute for Business Value.   Anthony Marshall is the Chair of the Board of Advisors for The Global Thought Leadership Institute at APQC and the Senior Research Director of thought leadership at the IBM Institute for Business Value.    Get The ROI of Thought Leadership here: https://rb.gy/3vv7wm   Here are some free gifts for you: Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

What's Your Baseline? Enterprise Architecture & Business Process Management Demystified

We spoke about frameworks and reference content as accelerators in a previous episode (listen here), but one of those is pretty popular here in North America, so that we have a deeper look into the APQC Process Classification Framework today. We are talking with Moritz Berger about the ins-and-outs of APQC, and will extend this conversation with another What's Your Baseline Shorts in a week from now (WYB Shorts 10). Moritz is a senior leader with credentials in technology strategy, management consulting, sales, business development, marketing, and enterprise architecture. He has 20+ years of global industry experience including AWS, KPMG, and Microsoft and is a trusted advisor to Fortune 500 organizations. In this episode of the podcast we are talking about: Moritz' background What is APQC and the PCF? What is the structure and what is included? Who is the framework for and which use cases can be covered? What are the benefits of using a structure like the PCF? How to get started?

The premise of running a business is pretty straightforward: exchange goods or services for payment, and hopefully return a profit. But when you zoom in on the processes at play, things start to get a lot more complicated. Between the product and payment comes a combination of transactional and higher-value activities, customer-facing opportunities and critical organizational handoffs — a complex process better known as the order-to-cash (O2C) cycle. In Episode 9 of Esker On Air, host Scott Leahy talks with Marisa Brown, APQC's Senior Principal Research Lead for Supply Chain Management, to shed some light on what the O2C cycle is, how it works, and how business leaders can optimize and capitalize on it. Listen to the new episode to get answers to important questions like: · Why should you be paying attention to the O2C cycle right now? · Where do you start when it comes to optimizing O2C processes? · What tools and technologies can help get the most value out of your O2C processes? · How has the pandemic affected O2C optimization?
