In this episode of Work Matters, host Thomas Bertels and innovation management expert Bill Fischer discuss the Chinese company Haier and how its unique operating model has enabled its rapid growth. Bill explains how Haier evolved from its roots as a local refrigerator company to become a global innovator by embracing two big ideas: zero distance to the customer and entrepreneurship.The discussion covers Haier's use of microenterprises and platforms to enhance customer experience and employee autonomy, highlighting the importance of organizational vitality.

DATA OR ADS: FUTURE OF JOB BOARD ADVERTISING IN THE ERA OF GENERATIVE AI Job Boards are going through a moment. What had felt like a clear progression of business model towards Pay-Per-Applicant, is now changing in the era of GenAI, especially with the AI-enabled job candidate conducting mass apply. Opportunities and risks have both increased for the job board vendors, and the decisions that these players make will have downstream impact on the sort of services employers and job seekers alike can expect.

We're bringing together the top experts in the job board field to talk us through the future of job board advertising. - Macro View: State of Job Boards - Volume of job ads vs Revenue - Programmatic vs non-programmatic - Impact of GenAI for job boards - New GenAI job board features - will internal search change? - Data and LLM, what is the real value of job board data? - What is the impact of job board users - job seekers and employers?

In this season's final episode, we talk to Bill Fischer and Lisa Gansky about how our old ideas of what's normal are disappearing. There is a need to bridge the gap between old and emerging systems, encouraging exploration and experimentation to unlock our Ecosystemic Future. Bill Fischer has spent his entire career involved in innovation, from being a practicing development engineer in industry and government; to being an academic researcher, teacher and writer; to being involved in several startups. He is presently a Senior Lecturer at the Sloan School of Management, at MIT, and an Emeritus Professor of Innovation Management at IMD, in Lausanne, Switzerland. Lisa Gansky is a social provocateur, serial entrepreneur, angel investor, advisor, international keynote speaker and author of the bestselling book, “The Mesh: Why the Future of Business is Sharing”. Her work on trust, the sharing economy & innovation has been central in rethinking 21st century governance, business models & community dynamics. The challenges organizations are facing in adapting to rapid change show how traditional organizational structures are no longer working. To adapt to the changing landscape, a mix between AI, Web3 technologies and new ways to governance can allow for flexible and modular ways of organizing. New promises emerge through the overlap between organizations and software that can unlock new ecosystem potential where different players and customers come together, focusing on local relationships and embracing transience for more innovative solutions. Beyond all, it's important to keep up with optionality and dynamism, both key to the nature of Ecosystemic thinking: co-creation and increasing diversity and variance are going to be key in the markets of the future. These elements provide the backdrop for this Situational Update on our Ecosystemic Future. Key Highlights

In this episode, we have our two dear guests Lisa Gansky — the eternal entrepreneur, great thinker and our long term advisor — and Bill Fischer, professor at IMD in Lausanne with whom we’ve developed the very first Rendanheyi Masterclass based on Haier’s revolutionary organisational model and a partner in our long term research on the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Enabling Organization.In our conversation, we wanted to pick their brains on the key theses emerging from the research for our upcoming 2020 Whitepaper, such as acknowledging marketplace pervasiveness, seeing a systemic shift happening towards health and redrawing the human development thesis to reverse the trend that machine development has long outpaced human development.Following an initial framing, Bill and Lisa take turns in providing amazing reflections on where the world seems to be headed, from an organisational, systems and cultural perspective and related to business ecosystems and innovation.Remember that you can find the show notes and transcripts from all our episodes on our Medium publication.

How reliable will strategy be in the future? What if tactics were more important than strategy? Are firms obsolete? What about nation states? Can the future of companies be a model for the future of countries? How is the nature of competitive advantage changing?

In this episode, Ben Robinson is in conversation with Bill Fischer and Ian Stewart from the International Institute for Management Development — IMD. Bill is Professor of Innovation Management and Ian — who you may remember from a previous episode of this podcast — he co-founded WiReD and he is Executive in Residence at IMD.

There are times in life when you meet someone who you just feel a connection with right from the get-go. I had one of those experiences when I sat down to interview this week's guest, Bill Fisher. Not only does he have a voice that that is destined for audio greatness, but he's also a phenomenal guy. Bill is the President and Co-Founder of Maximum Velocity, a full-service marketing agency here in Cleveland. I was introduced to Bill by a listener, and now friend, who reached out just looking to add value. That gesture alone was enough to start a friendship with that particular listener but also planted the seed for another great relationship and a top-notch episode with Bill. Bill delivers some unbelievable content and true value in this episode. I will say it gets deep and he is very open and vulnerable with me, which makes for a powerful conversation. He is very open about how his faith has guided him. We discuss the importance of having someone to hold you accountable, how you can set up a life plan, what it means to find your spot, and much more. Enjoy!

LIFE LESSON SERIES: Where Do Ideas Come From Ideas happen when a combination of things come together for an individual. In Making Ideas Happen, Scott Belsky argues, “Ideas don’t happen because they are great – or by accident. The misconception that great ideas inevitably lead to success has prevailed for too long.” In The Idea Hunter, Bill Fischer and Andy Boynton establish that if you believe that ideas are everywhere, then you’ll start finding them in droves. Enjoy today's podcast episode as we discuss where ideas come from and how people get their ideas. RESOURCES about Ideas: 1.)

Great New Orleans jazz singer Germaine Bazzle’s formal music education began at the Xavier Junior School of Music under the tutelage of the accomplished and very demanding Sister Mary Latitia. “She is the one, when you hear that little sound that I make, she is the one that demonstrated that to the orchestra when we were playing as she wanted something done,” Bazzle explained. “She wanted to show the trumpets or trombones, the brass people, how to do a certain thing. And when I started doing gigs I found myself doing that.” Bazzle’s jazz education, though, started at home. “My brother had a group of friends who were musicians, like Johnny Fernandez, Bill Fischer, you know, those guys. And those guys would come to our house to listen to music. It was the weirdest thing — five or six guys, sitting in the living room and just recording after recording is being played,” she said. “Well — boys! So, I’m sitting in the room with them, you know. I mean, that was nice. I was also interested in
On tonight's episode of the Kansas City Baseball Vault, the boys were faced with the harsh reality that the dog days of summer brings to the City - losing Royals Baseball. We were also joined by 65 year Professional Baseball veteran and former Kansas City Athletic, 81 year old Bill Fischer who also serves as the Senior Pitching Advisor to the Royals. Bill joined us from Burlington where he was scouting the likes of Bubba Starling. To close the show, Chris challenged the rest of the crew to point to one shining light for the rest of the season.
