The Great Product Owner: Empowering Teams, A Key PO Skill Armin discusses the role of a great Product Owner (PO) in fostering team success. Drawing from an experience with a mixed team of internal and client-side members, he highlights the importance of clear communication and decision-making abilities in a client-driven setup.

Armin Mandara: When Harmony Hinders Progress, Learning to Trigger Difficult Conversations Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Armin shares his experience with one of his initial teams, responsible for QA and user acceptance. The team lacked cross-functionality and faced uneven work distribution. Communication about improvements was scarce, leading to stagnant progress. Some stakeholders provided no feedback, and the team maintained a facade of contentment. Armin observed a reluctance to engage in conflict and recognized the team's collective unawareness of necessary improvements. Even if in one-on-one meetings, individuals were more candid, they did not raise the topics in a wider group. Armin advises addressing issues individually to gauge openness for discussion. The team's absence of external pressure hindered growth, reflecting the challenge of balancing harmony with performance.

Nachhaltigkeit erfolgreich umsetzen - mit dem Sustainability Podcast für Leader: Gewinne Zukunft.
In dieser Folge wirst Du manchmal zweimal hinhören müssen. Zumindest ging es mir so. Denn manche meiner 'nachhaltigen Selbstverständlichkeiten' hat mein Gast Anna Peters gründlich infrage gestellt. Die Nachhaltigkeitsexpertin erklärt mir zum Beispiel den Fall mit der in Plastik verpackten Gurke. Auf den ersten Blick für mich als Kunde völlig unnötig. Aus Sicht eines Unternehmens aber genau richtig. Anna erklärt mit in dieser Podcast-Folge, warum es in so einem komplexen Thema wie Nachhaltigkeit keine einfachen Antworten gibt. In diese drei Mythen der Nachhaltigkeit tauchen wir ein: ➡️ Verpackung - ist Plastik besser als unverpackt? ➡️ Regionalität - ist der Lieferweg wirklich entscheidend? ➡️ Transformation - wie sieht eine nachhaltige Zukunft aus? Über Anna Peters: Anna Peters ist Projektleiterin Nachhaltigkeit bei der Migros-Gruppe und absolute Überzeugungstäterin. Über ihren Job hinaus engagiert sie sich als Vorstandsmitglied bei Endeva, einer NFP-Organisation für nachhaltige Innovationen, und ist Mitglied im Stiftungsrat Stiftung Natur & Wirtschaft. ⏱️ (00:03:18) - Mythos 'unverpackt ist nachhaltig'. (00:11:39) - Nachhaltige Alternativen zu Plastik. (00:14:35) - Mythos Regionalität: nur bedingt nachhaltiger. (00:20:00) - Nachhaltigkeit ist komplex - so entsteht Orientierung. (00:25:13) - Mythos 'grün ist einfach': Wie sieht ein Supermarkt in 2050 aus? (00:29:22) - Essen wir in Zukunft noch Fleisch? Das sagt Anna. (00:31:53) - 'Retten' neue Technologien die Klimaziele? (00:36:33) - Drei weitere Pflichtthemen für Nachhaltigkeitsprofis. (00:40:40) - Ist die Kaffeekapselmaschine nachhaltiger als man denkt? [Anzeige]

Wie transformieren Versicherer ihre digitalen Kundenerlebnisse und bauen nachhaltige Kundenbeziehungen für die Versicherungen der Zukunft auf? Mit diesen Fragen bechäftigten sich Magnolia, BSI, IBM iX gemeinsam mit den verschiedensten Gästen aus der Versicherungsbranche am 8. Mai in Hamburg und ich war als Keynote Speaker vor Ort. Magnolia bietet als führende Digital Experience Platform Versicherungen und ihren Marketing Teams die Möglichkeit, Content und produkte mühelos zu verwalten und nahtlos personalisiert auszuspielen. BSI bietet mit der BSI Customer Suite eine ganzheitliche Plattform zur Digitalisierung der Kundenbeziehung, die auf langjähriger Branchenexpertise beruht und gemeinsam mit Kunden weiterentwickelt wird. Als führende Industry Cloud Platform-Lösung für Marketing, Sales und Service schafft die BSI Customer Suite echte Wow-Erlebnisse und hilft, Kunden besser zu verstehen und im richtigen Moment mit dem passenden Inhalt anzusprechen. IBM iX kreiert mit 1.200 Expert*innen in DACH hinreißende Experiences für Versicherte. Mit der Power von Hunderten Designern entstehen intuitive Services und die perfekte Customer Journey für Versichertsangelegenheiten. Strategie, Design und technische Umsetzung aus einer Hand für die Produkte und Services von morgen. Der Unterschied zwischen Personalisierung und Hyperpersonalisierung besteht darin, worauf die Experience zugeschnitten wird. Nutze ich Daten, um das Erlebnis auf eine Gruppe von Menschen auszurichten, handelt es sich um eine Form der Personalisierung. Beispiele hierfür sind die Amazon-Vorschläge “verwandte Produkte”, da den Nutzern größtenteils die gleichen Vorschläge gemacht werden. Hyperpersonalisierung ist das auf einen einzelnen Nutzer zugeschnittene Erlebnis. Der Feed von Youtube ist dieser Kategorie zuzuordnen. Youtube sammelt Daten über seine Nutzer und verwendet diese, um ein individuelles Angebot zu erstellen. Gleiches gilt für die Google-Suche, die inzwischen ebenfalls hyperpersonalisiert funktioniert. Für Versicherer ist relevant: Gespräche im Kundensupport sollten möglichst persönlich (ergo hyperpersonalisiert) gestaltet werden. Idealerweise werden Anrufer automatisch erkannt und die entsprechenden Kundendaten geladen, um eine individualisierte Kundenerfahrung zu ermöglichen.

Nachhaltigkeit erfolgreich umsetzen - mit dem Sustainability Podcast für Leader: Gewinne Zukunft.
Meistens behandeln wir Climate Action als eine Wissens- und Technologiefrage. Doch weder an Wissen noch Technologie fehlt es uns. Woran scheitern wir also in Bezug auf umgesetzte Nachhaltigkeit? Die Psychologie ist der Schlüssel, um zu verstehen, weshalb die Lücke zwischen Klimawissen und Klimahandeln so frappierend groß ist. Und nein, die Antwort auf diese Lücke sind nicht noch mehr Fakten. Sondern Raum für Gefühle. Und Raum für Partizipation. Sagt Katharina van Bronswijk - Psychologin, Sprecherin von Psychologists for Future und Autorin von ‘Klima im Kopf'. In dieser Folge erzählt mir Katharina: ✅ Wie Menschen auf Klimafakten reagieren. ✅ Wie wir uns selbst ausbremsen und austricksen. ✅ Was wir in Organisationen oder Kommunikation berücksichtigen können, wenn wir Menschen zum konstruktiven Handeln bewegen wollen. Links: Leitfaden zur psychologisch wirksamen Klimakommunikation:
Does conflict and incompatible perspectives always have to be a negative? In this episode of Looking Outside we speak with Raj B. Shroff, Founder & Principal at PINE, a strategy and design agency to hear how he and his company leverages conflict to get to a better outcome.Raj shares how his workplace thrives on openness, when ideas are great or when things aren't working, and how he creates the space for everyone part of the company to feel comfortable with that. It's empathetic to be honest, Raj says, because head nodding doesn't get the best out of people nor the work.As the leader of his organization, Raj tries to lead by example, often admitting when he doesn't have an answer or asking for clarity. Just as importantly, he intentionally pays attention to his body language making sure it's neutral or positive, being mindful of never showing negative.Jo and Raj discuss how conflict exists for a reason because something in the context isn't right, and though it sometimes feels like it, it isn't personal.--To look outside, Raj lives by the principle of letting new experience in and allowing them to shape new world views. He does this through exposure to things outside his norm, particularly while traveling. It's not something he goes and does but rather is something he lives by.--Raj B. Shroff founded PINE in 2017. The core philosophy of PINE is the power of integrated left and right brain thinking. Prior to founding Pine, Raj was VP of Brand, Strategy & Design at a global experience design firm. During his tenure there he led many turnkey research, strategy and omnichannel design initiatives. He loves technology and consults clients on topics such as blockchain, crypto, XR (AR/VR) and other more far out concepts. He has run many large-scale initiatives, having served in account leadership roles at Fitch (WPP), in the areas of Research, Retail, Brand and Product Design and at Resource (now IBM iX), in Digital Experience & Marketing.Clients he has served include Intel, P&G, Mars Wrigley and Unilever. Raj is an industry speaker on topics such as the future of retail, branding, digital engagement and consumer behavior.He is Adjunct Faculty at CCAD (Columbus College of Art and Design) teaching the business of design. He is a mentor to students at the Ohio State Fisher College of Business, where he earned his MBA. He loves spending his free time with his wife and two sons. He is an avid trail runner (ran his first 50-miler in April 2022), mountain biker, adventure traveler and recently picked up acoustic guitar.

Organizations are facing increasing pressures from key stakeholders: Customers are expecting more and more hyper-personalized experiences at the right time, through the right medium, and in the right manner. At the same time, especially post-covid, employees are wanting to work in different ways, in different places, and at different times. Leading marketeers have an opportunity to rapidly change how work gets done in their teams – to deliver greater productivity, better customer experiences, and happier employees. Companies such as Mattel, Barclays and Adobe are adopting modern ways of working (such as design thinking and agile) alongside exploiting emerging technologies (such as Digital Experience platforms, AI and automation) that are delivering exponential business value. In the words of Fun Boy Three and Banarama, “It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it”. There has never been a better time to shake up work management to transform content and digital marketing.Check out upcoming DigiMarCon Digital Marketing, Media and Advertising Conferences & Exhibitions Worldwide at https://digimarcon.com/events/
In dieser Folge des Digital Insurance Podcast spreche ich mit Christian Witt, Director Insurance Digital Strategy bei IBM iX und Sebastian Stang, General Manager EMEA bei Magnolia. IBM iX ist die Full Service Digitalagentur von IBM Consulting. Ihr Fokus liegt auf der User und Customer Experience. Sie begleiten Versicherungsunternehmen bei der Entwicklung ihrer digitalen Strategie und setzen digitale Produkte und Services um. Magnolia ist ein Softwarehersteller aus Basel, der seit 25 Jahren weltweit am Markt tätig ist. Sie helfen Unternehmen, ihre DX-Initiativen umzusetzen und die Herausforderungen der Digitalisierung zu meistern. IBM iX und Magnolia pflegen seit über 15 Jahren eine erfolgreiche Partnerschaft. Sebastian formuliert die Kooperation so: “Wir sind der Softwarehersteller, IBM iX kümmert sich um alles bezüglich Umsetzung.” Der Fokus von IBM iX liegt auf der User Experience, sagt Christian. Ein modernes Kundenerlebnis zeichne sich dadurch aus, dass es reibungslos und intuitiv abläuft. Dazu seien nicht nur die Großkonzerne in der Lage. Kleine und mittelgroße Unternehmen können das ebenfalls. Im Falle der Versicherer sind die Herausforderungen hierfür vielschichtig gelagert. Silo-Denken macht die Arbeit an einem Produkt problematisch, sagt Sebastian. Hinzu kommen die vielen unterschiedlichen Versicherungsbereiche wie Krankenversicherung, Altersvorsorge, KFZ usw. Über die komplette Produktpalette hinweg eine “nahtlose Experience” hinzukriegen, ist dabei durchaus herausfordernd, meint Christian. Ausblick: Wie können sich Versicherer also weiterentwickeln und ihre Stärken auch digital hervorheben? Die Antwort lautet: mit einer Digital Experience Platform. Eine DXP hilft Ihnen, die Beziehung zu Ihren Kunden zu vertiefen und den Wert jedes Berührungspunktes mit ihnen zu maximieren. Im kostenlosen Whitepaper von Magnolia erfahrt ihr mehr zum Thema DXP, und wie sie beispielsweise helfen kann, kritische Berührungspunkte wie Tarifberechnungen und Schadensmeldungen zu stärken und was Versicherer bei der Auswahl der richtigen Plattform und beachten sollten. IBM iX als Experte für Digitale Experience Services nennt euch in aller Kürze, aber ganz konkret die 5 wichtigsten Schritte von der Auswahl bis zur Implementierung einer DXP in Ihrem Versicherungsunternehmen Links in dieser Ausgabe Zur Homepage von Jonas Piela Zum LinkedIn-Profil von Jonas Piela Zum LinkedIn-Profil von Christian Witt Zum LinkedIn-Profil von Sebastian Stang Über diesen Podcast Folgt uns auf LinkedIn für mehr Podcast-Updates Zur Podcast-Website Wir suchen immer nach neuen und spannenden Gesprächspartnern.

I just knew that if I continued to pursue the things that I enjoyed and stimulated me and brought me energy that I would end up in a good place.” “I'm on a mission to change the data so that women have opportunity at the same rates, compensation at the same rates, and ultimately long term wealth at the same levels as men.” “Right now, women have a fraction of the total wealth in this country and in the world but they have two thirds of the student debt.” Mentioned: Equipt Women Kelly@equippedwomen.com https://bonniemarcusleadership.com/ https://web.facebook.com/bonnie.marcus/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/bonniemarcus https://twitter.com/selfpromote https://www.instagram.com/self_promote_/ Gendered Ageism Survey Results Forbes article 5 Tips to own the superpower of your age IAMMusicGroup Purchase my book Not Done Yet on Amazon: If you enjoyed this episode of Badass Women Podcast, then make sure to subscribe to the podcast and drop us a five-star review.

In this episode, Jeannette talks to Caroline Strachan, a real powerhouse of a woman, a champion for diversity & inclusion and a fantastic business woman, as the Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Business Travel & Meetings consultancy Festive Road. Gender equality is top of Caroline's list and believes this is not just a female issue as she covered in her TED X speech!! She explains how she went from being an events manager for Amex to working in the travel industry. Where she took on leadership roles at Cisco, Yahoo, Amex, and several other multinational companies. Caroline and Jeannette discuss the difference between the corporate and entrepreneurial worlds and dive deep into the subject of creating that elusive balance between work and home. KEY TAKEAWAYS Often, people see your capabilities more clearly than you do. Even if you do not have all of the answers, still go ahead and do it. You will learn along the way. Be honest, be yourself and don´t be afraid to admit you have gaps in your skillset or knowledge that you are in the process of filling. Don´t be afraid to ask for help, especially if you are having mental health or emotional issues. Own your confidence. Believe in yourself. Society cannot afford to think of childcare as being the woman´s responsibility. Parents need the freedom to create a family life that works for them. Everyone has things they need to work on and strengths. It has nothing to do with what gender you are. To grow a sustainable business, you need a proper structure and to employ people with the right strengths. Some people you should listen to, others you need to ignore. Being able to recognise the difference is an important skill. Be the best version of yourself. Think about how you are affecting others and aim to have a positive impact on them. BEST MOMENTS ‘Treat others as you wish to be treated. ´ ‘A big part of being able to be brave, bold and beautiful is working on yourself.' ‘We´ve all got stuff that we need to work on. It´s just so not about gender.' ‘If you don´t, get that confidence piece worked out, everything else is a bit irrelevant.' This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It's never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

Corinne Sklar, CMO of IBM, shares how demand gen influences their marketing strategies, and vice versa. She dives into the partnership her team shares with sales to ensure seamless execution of their acquisition strategy. On this episode of Demand Gen Visionaries, Corinne talks about growth at IBM and how companies, big and small, can implement consistent marketing strategies to generate a successful sales experience.Key TakeawaysWhen brand marketing and demand gen work closely together to bring awareness to prospects, revenue followsTimeless content is the key to providing a seamless and reliable customer experience that continues to deliver value — even years down the roadTransparency and clear communication with teammates is the secret to a healthy, productive, and conflict-free work environmentQuotes“Content marketing has to stand out. It either has to be provocative, or it has to be super detailed in regards to a problem we know needs to be solved.”“People are people. I have resolved conflicts more by simply picking up the phone and calling someone than any other tactic that I've ever used.”“The company needs to be thought of as a marketing- and sales-driven organization, not just sales.”“Look for digital clues around what products and services customers are interested in — what engagement they're having across your business to be able to tailor outreach to them. Marketing plays a huge role in providing those digital footprints right into the place that sellers work every day. And that should be their CRM or on their mobile device.

The role of CMO is a difficult one. It's even more difficult when you're just starting out. So what do you do in your first 90 days to set yourself up for future success?

Your marketing and business strategy must be aligned. - Have you taken a sales call yet? Can you talk about your product to a potential prospect? Evolve as a marketer by bridging the gap between marketing and sales. - If something is high risk and you have confidence behind it, do it. If something is low risk and you have confidence behind it, delegate it. Draw yourself an axis to see the other quadrants. Keith calls this the "2 by 2." - Giving others on your team a voice to make decisions has a viral effect within organizations. Trust, democracy, and creative freedom to develop. - It's important to constantly be adjusting and learning as you go. Adaptability and growth are what to strive for personally and externally as an organization. Bios: Leela Srinivasan is currently CMO of SurveyMonkey. Previously, she served as CMO at Lever.
