Nicht jedes KI-Tool zählt: Was wirklich Business Impact hat In diesem kurzen, aber prägnanten Impuls teilt Torsten eine zentrale Beobachtung aus dem aktuellen KI-Markt: Der Fokus vieler Unternehmer liegt zu sehr auf den neuesten Tools – anstatt auf deren tatsächlichen Nutzen. Es geht nicht darum, jedem Hype hinterherzulaufen, sondern zu verstehen, welche Technologien echte Wirkung entfalten. Michael Schmid auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelschmid-ki/ Innovationen ohne Wirkung? Der KI-Markt im Wandel ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini oder Mistral – die Innovationswelle rollt. Doch die entscheidende Frage bleibt: Was davon brauchst du wirklich? Nur weil ein Tool neu ist oder gerade „gehyped“ wird, heißt das nicht, dass es für dein Business relevant ist. Viele der aktuellen Releases bieten keinen echten Anwendungsfall, der dein Geschäftsmodell beeinflusst, wenn das Tool morgen nicht mehr verfügbar wäre. Businesskritische KI statt Tool-Spielerei Ein Beispiel: Manus AI. Trotz medialer Aufmerksamkeit fehlt hier für viele Anwender ein klarer Business Case. Wirklich entscheidend ist, ob ein KI-Werkzeug einen kritischen Prozess unterstützt – so sehr, dass seine Abwesenheit ein Problem darstellen würde. Nur dann spricht man von Impact. Genau das ist der Maßstab, an dem du Tools prüfen solltest. Von Prinzipien statt Plattformen lernen Statt jedes neue Feature zu testen, geht es bei DIE KOERTINGS darum, die Mechanismen hinter der Technologie zu verstehen. Warum? Weil Prinzipien über Plattformen stehen. Wer weiß, wie KI funktioniert, kann sie flexibel einsetzen – unabhängig davon, ob das Tool nun ChatGPT, Claude oder etwas völlig Neues ist. KI in den Alltag bringen – mit Wirkung Der wahre Fortschritt liegt in der Integration kleiner, wirksamer KI-Prozesse in deinen Alltag. Nicht spektakulär, aber effektiv. E-Mails automatisieren, Recherchen beschleunigen, Content vorbereiten – genau hier beginnt der messbare Mehrwert. Unternehmen, die das verstanden haben, werden nachhaltiger profitieren als jene, die auf jedes neue Tool aufspringen. Fazit Nicht jedes Tool ist ein Gamechanger – aber jedes KI-Element, das echte Arbeit abnimmt, hat seinen Wert. Entscheidend ist, ob du damit deine Abläufe verbessern, Zeit sparen oder Qualität steigern kannst. Setz auf Tiefe statt Breite, Wirkung statt Wow-Effekt – und finde heraus, wo KI für dich geschäftskritisch wird. Noch mehr von den Koertings ...

In this explosive Tech Burst Talks episode, host Charles sits down with Andrew Staples, a battle-tested geopolitical expert who made the leap from The Economist to founding his own advisory firm, GeoPol Asia. Together, they dissect how corporations across Asia are caught in the crossfire of escalating US-China tensions, tariff wars, and supply chain disruptions. This isn't just academic analysis - it's corporate survival intelligence from the trenches. Staples reveals how multinationals are paralysed by uncertainty, with investment plans on hold whilst executives scramble to navigate everything from Vietnam's tariff backlash to China's strategic overseas expansion. The conversation exposes the volatile landscape where Singapore battles the Middle East for innovation talent, venture capital dries up across Southeast Asia, and Western MNCs find themselves demoted to third-tier priorities by nervous headquarters. From the miscalculation risks that keep geopolitical experts awake at night to Japan's demographic time bomb spurring unprecedented innovation, this episode delivers the tactical insights C-suite leaders need to thrive when caught between superpowers. Whether you're repositioning supply chains or managing expat teams in Asia's dynamic markets, Staples provides the intelligence needed to survive the corporate crossfire of our fractured global order.

Responsible marketing, and its close cousin inclusive marketing are increasingly becoming a part of the fabric of the way in which good marketing is done.

In this episode, I sat down once again with Lola Bakare, CMO advisor and author of the new book Responsible Marketing. We covered a lot of ground including what responsible marketing is, the core elements of it, why it works so well to build trust and loyalty with consumers, and of course, where brands are falling short.

In this episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, hosts Joel Cheesman and Chad Sowash welcome Beth Benike, CEO of Busy Baby, a baby product company featured on Shark Tank and NPR's How I Built This. Benike, a former Army veteran and mother, shares the story of Busy Baby, which started with a silicone placemat that suctions to surfaces and tethers toys to keep them off the ground. Now offering eight interchangeable products, the company faces a crisis due to new U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports, with $158,000 of inventory stuck in China and tariffs soaring to $230,000—far exceeding the anticipated $30,000 for a 20-30% rate. Manufacturing in the U.S. isn't viable due to the lack of raw silicone material, high minimum order requirements, and costly equipment (e.g., $4.5 million for one product line). Benike highlights the ripple effect on small businesses, like trucking firms and port workers, as imports stall and shelves risk going empty, potentially disrupting holiday sales since 80% of U.S. toys come from China. She plans to pivot to selling in Europe, Canada, and Australia, despite unfamiliar markets, as tariffs make U.S. sales unsustainable. The discussion also touches on unfair tariff exemptions for large companies like Lenovo, leaving small businesses like Busy Baby struggling, and the broader economic threat to jobs and consumer spending. Benike remains determined to protect her team and find solutions, urging listeners to visit busybaby.com.

Each of my guests shared their unique HR journeys and how embracing data has been a game-changer in their careers.

Matt acknowledges AI's strengths—particularly in summarizing information and idea generation—but urges caution. When AI tools lack source context, they can mislead as easily as they can inform. The key is discernment: understanding when AI adds value and when it distracts.The team unpacks how AI is impacting product roadmaps, budgeting, and even job security. Matt shares war stories of teams told to "do something with AI," only to later realize the result consumed $200K to close a $50K deal. Oops.But this isn't an anti-AI rant. Matt offers frameworks to leverage AI wisely while keeping business impact front and center. If you're going to play with shiny tools, make sure they're solving real problems.Now you can interact with us directly by leaving a voice message at https://www.speakpipe.com/CustomerSuccessPlaybookCheck out https://funnelstory.ai/ for more details about Funnelstory.

Jenny Wood, former Google executive and author of Wild Courage: Go After What You Want and Get It, challenges the idea that success means playing it safe. In this episode, she reveals how to reclaim nine so-called "negative" traits—like being selfish, nosy, or even manipulative—and use them to build confidence, influence without authority, and stand out in your career. We explore how these traits play out in risk-averse vs. risk-friendly workplaces, how to apply them in team settings (not just as individuals), and how to avoid Trait Traps that turn strengths into weaknesses.

Seth Godin – acclaimed entrepreneur, bestselling author of This is Strategy: Make Better Plans, and closing keynote speaker at ATD25 – joins the podcast to challenge the way we think about strategy. What if strategy isn't about rigid plans but about systems, time, and the games we choose to play? What happens when we mistake false proxies for progress? And how can community action and empathy fit into the puzzle of creating change? Seth shares his perspective on navigating ambiguity, designing upskilling and reskilling strategies for roles that don't yet exist, and building a future-ready workforce. And for a sweet bonus? A little chocolate talk for dessert.
ServiceNow, the AI platform for business transformation, has announced the Yokohama platform release, unleashing new AI agents across CRM, HR, IT, and more, for faster, smarter workflows and maximum, end-to-end business impact. These latest innovations include teams of preconfigured AI agents that deliver productivity and predictable outcomes from day one, on a single platform, as well as capabilities to build, onboard, and manage the entire AI agent lifecycle. Because data fuels AI, the company also announced expansion of its Knowledge Graph with advancements to its Common Service Data Model (CSDM) to break down barriers among data sources for more connected AI agents. According to Gartner, "By 2028, 40% of CIOs will demand "Guardian Agents" be available to autonomously track, oversee, or contain the results of AI agent actions," underscoring the growing need for a coordinated, enterprise-wide approach to AI deployment and management. As businesses race to unlock the full potential of agentic AI, ServiceNow serves as the AI agent control tower for enterprises, with solutions that remove common roadblocks like data fragmentation, governance gaps, and real-time performance challenges.

By providing a single view of all workflows, AI, and automation needs, ServiceNow enables companies to seamlessly coordinate thousands of AI agents across CRM, IT, HR, finance, and more, enabling total enterprise-wide visibility and control.

Enterprise leaders are no longer just experimenting with AI agents; they're demanding AI solutions that can help them achieve productivity at scale," said Amit Zavery, president, chief product officer, and chief operating officer at ServiceNow. "ServiceNow's industry-leading agentic AI framework meets this need by delivering predictability and efficiency from the start. With the combination of agentic AI, data fabric, and workflow automation all on one platform, we're making it easier for organisations to embed connected AI where work happens and both measure and drive business outcomes faster, smarter, and at scale."
