Het lijkt wel een Paaswonder. Op Goede Vrijdag deelt president Trump uit. Hij zegt dat China een deal met hem wil sluiten en belooft de tarieven op Chinese producten niet te verhogen. Ook zegt hij dat er een deal met Europa aanstaande is. De handelsoorlog, zo lijkt het, wordt opgelost. Deze aflevering kijken we of er daadwerkelijk vrede komt tussen de VS en China. En of hij de komende weken een deal bereikt met andere landen die hij bestookt met importtarieven. Over tarieven gesproken: Netflix blijkt er geen last van te hebben. Het gaat veel en veel beter met het bedrijf dan analisten dachten. De omzet, de winst én marge zijn beter dan gedacht. Netflix blijkt handelsoorlog-proof én recessieproof te zijn.Oekraïne komt ook voorbij deze uitzending, want het land heeft een mineralendeal gesloten met de Verenigde Staten. Mineralen die het nieuwe goud worden genoemd, want ze zijn nodig voor chips. Een bodemschat van ongekende waarde: volgens de VN ligt er voor 11.000 miljard dollar onder de grond. We hebben het trouwens ook over eigen land. Over de minister van Infrastructuur. Die wordt door Brussel op de vingers getikt vanwege zijn plannen voor Schiphol. En het gaat over ABN Amro.

Kostenoverschrijdingen dwingen het bestuur van ABN Amro tot ingrijpende maatregelen, waarbij flink gesneden wordt in de personeelskosten. Vacaturestops en het stopzetten van externe inhuur worden binnen de bank direct doorgevoerd.

The year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of China's Digital Silk Road, which has become an increasingly crucial component of Xi Jinping's flagship foreign policy project: the Belt and Road Initiative. Over the past decade, China has massively expanded its digital infrastructure investment across the globe. Accompanying the investment has been the diffusion of China's digital governance norms and standards in recipient states. Countries in the Indo-Pacific have been at the forefront of this stretching Chinese digital influence landscape. The conflation between digital development cooperation and digital governance norms adoption has far-reaching implications that need to be better understood and addressed. To discuss the issue, Michael Caster joins host Bonnie Glaser. Caster is the Head of Global China Programmeat ARTICLE 19, an NGO that advances freedom of opinion and expression. His organization has published two reports examining China's Digital Silk Road. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:30] Understanding China's Digital Silk Road [05:57] China's Digital Governance Norms[10:16] China's Digital Footprints Abroad[16:07] Attractiveness of Chinese Digital Solutions[18:56] Role of High-Tech Companies in Digital Governance[21:44] Assessing the Effectiveness of China's Digital Governance[23:14] State-Driven Surveillance and Censorship[27:39] China's BeiDou Navigation System [31:09] How should governments respond to these normative shifts? 

Intranets often get a bad rap! And rightly so. Too often they are places where information and communication goes to die. In this episode, I chat with Ben Leach - Consulting Director and Co-Founder of Information EXP. We dive into the true potential of intranets. Ben discusses his extensive experience with SharePoint and intranet projects, highlighting the pivotal role an intranet can play in organisational communication, employee engagement, and overall productivity when implemented effectively. The discussion also covers best practices for creating successful intranets, including clear purpose, strategic content management, and the importance of authentic engagement from leadership. We also address common pitfalls and provide practical advice for companies looking to revamp or build their intranet to ensure it truly serves its intended purpose.You can get the episode on YouTube [or subscribe for episodes direct to your inbox] here: https://www.employercontent.marketing/

A well implemented ISO Management System can improve efficiency, customer satisfaction and drive continual improvement for a business. On the flip side, a poorly implemented Management system will yield little to no results, so what makes the biggest difference between good and bad implementation?  Communication is the key. If no one knows about your Management System, then how can it benefit the business as a whole? In this episode Ian Battersby discusses the importance of effective communication of your Management System, why it's vital to reap the full benefits of ISO Implementation and gives some examples of how you can communicate elements of your Management system to the wider business. You'll learn ·      Why do you need to communicate your management system? ·      What do you need to communicate? ·      Why is it important to communicate your Management system? ·      Different ways you can communicate your management system ·      How can you measure effective communication?   Resources ·      Isologyhub ·      How can ISO Standards Support ESG Compliance Workshop   In this episode, we talk about: [00:30] Episode Summary – Ian talks discusses elements of communicating a management system including, why you need to communicate and what needs to be communicated, the importance of doing so and how you can go about doing it. [02:45] Why do you need to communicate your Management System? In every ISO Standard, communication is a requirement. The levels and information specified will vary depending on the Standard, but the principles remain consistent. Ian cites ISO 9004 as providing further guidance to improve on what's initially required. In Clause 7.4 it states: “The effective communication of policies, strategy, relevant objectives is essential to the sustained success of an organisation.” Going on to state that communication should be “Meaningful, timely and continual” and that there should be some form of feedback within it to be able to address changes in the organisation's context. So, it's not just a one time exercise. It also states that: “communication processes should be both vertical and horizontal and be tailored to the differing needs of its recipients, whether internal or external.” So you also need to consider the external communication needs too. [04:35] Empowering through communication: ISO 9004 also talks about engaged, empowered and motivated people and their value as a key resource. These types of people help organisations to create and deliver value, so you should have processes in place for engaging those people, to gather feedback and drive continual improvement. [05:40] Where is Communication referenced in Standards?: Typically, communication is Clause 7.4 in most ISO Standards. Additionally there are elements of communication included in Clause 7.3. Awareness. The Awareness clause focuses on employees knowledge of the Management System, and is more focused on internal communications rather than with external interested parties. [06:25] What should be communicated internally? Under Clause 7.3 Awareness, it requires you to share: ·      Policies ·      Objectives ·      The consequences of non-conformance Other Standards may have additional communication requirements such as ISO 45001, which also highlights the need to share risks, hazards, incidents and the outcomes of investigations.   [07:10] Clause 7.4 Communication – This clause is more about determining internal and external communications. This includes considerations for: ·      What communications are relevant? ·      When should they be communicated? ·      Who should they be communicated to? ·      Who should be the one to communicate this information? Some Standards may also include specifications for communicating legal requirements, such as ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. [08:20] Nuance in effective communication:  One key element of communication is ensuring that it's understood and applied by the wider business. This doesn't mean that every employee should be able to parrot a specific policy within a business, but rather they should at least know where to find it and understand the implications for them. [09:40] A link between Communication and Leadership: Leadership plays a key role in communications, and ISO Standards specify that certain elements can't be delegated to another individual. Clause 5 Leadership specifically states: ·      They shall promote the use of the process approach and risk-based thinking, not delegating that promotion. ·      They should communicate to the importance of the management system and of conforming to that management system. ·      They should engage directly and support persons to contribute to the effectiveness of the system. ·      They should promote continual improvement. ·      They should support other relevant managers to demonstrate their leadership in their areas of responsibility. We've stressed the importance of Leadership in the success of a Management System in a previous episode, and their support with communication is a big part of that. [11:20] Communicating Objectives: Clause 6.2 Objectives states that they must be established and communicated. This doesn't have to be to everyone, so you can be selective and communicate certain objectives relevant to select people. [11:40] How to effectively communicate your management system  – Management systems can be vast, and it can be tricky to know exactly how much to communicate and to who. The first tip is to keep it simple. Translate the ‘Standard speak' into something recognisable for your business, which may not always be easy if you're familiar with the Standards terminology. However you need to relate these elements to how people in the business work. Try to keep it brief to avoid confusion. Next, ensure you are assuaging fears. Many are firstly opposed to the introduction of things like Operational Procedures if they've not worked with a Management System in place previously. However, all this is in practice is a written format for how they work, it shouldn't drastically change the way in which they work. Make sure they know this and describe what elements will change i.e. documentation updates. Lastly, they need awareness of the consequences of non-conformance and the need to look for opportunities to improve. [15:25] Communicating Policies – This is a part of all ISO Standards, a Policy can't just be hidden away in a rarely visited folder. A Policy communicates the intent of top management in an organisation, and is something that should be communicated to everyone, which could include external parties. So, you should try to keep this concise. On one page ideally. As long as you've encompassed the vision, values, strategy and top management commitment, and for certain standards a commitment to legal requirements, then you will meet an ISO Standards requirements. Some businesses like to include links to all their procedures within a policy, which by all means, you can, but don't expect people to read a 48 page policy and understand it enough to apply to their daily working lives.   [17:00] How can you communicate your Management System? – One key objective of communication is to ensure people understand and apply what's being communicated. To help achieve this, you may want to use multiple methods of communication, including: ·      Feedback options on content i.e. a yes or no check / options to provide feedback ·      Training sessions ·      Intranet page – quick links to relevant content such as policies or audit findings ·      Regular briefings ·      Notice boards ·      Electronic displays ·      Company briefs ·      Team meetings [20:25] How can you measure effective communication? There's a lot of ways you can assess this, including: ·      E-mail voting – to clarify when people have read specific documents ·      LMS Systems ·      Through SharePoint systems ·      Conduct surveys ·      During Internal Audits All of these can be used as methods of feedback where you can identify further opportunities for improvement from various levels of the business. [21:35] When should you consider external communications? – Clause 4.2 is where you're required to consider the needs and expectations of interested parties. When going through an anaylsis of these interested parties, you determine what they expect out of your Management System. Standards don't specify the need to write a communication plan, but they do say who's going to communicate what to whom, including how and when. In combination with that analysis of interested parties, it creates a solid basis for an effective communications plan. Again, some discretion will be required as not every external party will need to be privy to your internal policies and procedures. Just communicate what's relevant to them.

According to a Jobvite survey, employee referrals are 5X more likely to land you a role than just applying online like the rest of the universe.  Here's the thing: Networking is the key. But it doesn't have to be hard, or feel terrible. What if networking was just part of your professional life, like keeping your credentials current or meeting with your boss or direct reports?  AND…and this is a big AND…networking should be an ongoing part of your professional life, not just when you are job searching. After all, if only people who are job searching are networking, who are they networking with?  Here are 6 strategies for incorporating networking into what you're already doing.  Network where you're already going. Perhaps you are in a book club, or your kids are in school sports, or you attend regular fitness classes, or are a member of a church. Choose conversation over the quick exit. You never know when you'll be in the right place with the right person at the right time – whether it is for your benefit, theirs, or mutual.  Become active in your online communities.Leverage social media to connect with people you already share an interest with – parent groups, industry- or job function-relevant groups, or people who share a hobby. Engage with content, sharing, and commenting to build a network where you already participate.  Check in via email. Touch base via emails with your current contacts to keep your relationships active. As I like to say, LinkedIn shouldn't be the place where your contacts go to die. A simple, “Hi, what's new in your world?” or “Here's a resource I thought you would be interested in…” goes a long way.  Utilize your organization's social platforms. Leverage your company's internal platforms like Slack, Yammer, or Intranet forums to interact with colleagues throughout the organization.  Accept those invitations. From professional association webinars, a neighborhood get-together, a random lunch invitation, or Happy Hour with the gang – say yes to an invite and go with the goal of engaging in intentional conversation.  Connect with connectors. I call these people “Centers of Influence” – they seem to know everyone. When you speak with them, be sure to ask them “who else do you think I should speak with?” followed by “Would you be willing to make the introduction?”  How to make sure this actually happens.Here are five tips to make sure these ideas become part of your professional routine: -Schedule time. I like to think of networking as a low-level priority in my schedule. I am doing it on a regular basis, it isn't taking a ton of my time, but it's happening. To do this – it must be on my calendar. For example, set aside 15 minutes each week for email check-ins with your connections.  -Set goals. For example, decide to leverage your organization's internal networking platform to reach out to 2 colleagues each week. Then reward yourself for achieving your goal – it's the cumulative effect of these small wins that make the difference. -Follow-up and follow through. As you meet people, be sure to send thank you's as appropriate – this will also serve to remind them of what they said they would do for you. When you promise to do something for someone else, be sure to get it done – it's your reputation at stake. -Equal exchange of energy. As I like to say, don't be a barnacle in the networking process – aim to give at least as much value as you get. This will feel so much better.           -Regularly evaluate and make adjustments. Not all types of meetings will be fruitful for you. Some contacts you thought would be gold mines turn out not to be. Just make sure that, before you eliminate an avenue or person, you can honestly say you've done your part to make the relationship work.   Are you in the wrong job that chips away at you every day? The document and coaching programs offered by Exclusive Career Coaching will help you find a job that uses your zone of genius, recognizes your value, and pays you what you're worth.  If you're ready to take your job search to the next level by working with a highly experienced professional with a track record of client success, schedule a complimentary consult to learn more:  https://calendly.com/lesaedwards/zoom-meetings2

100,000 employees, 15 intranets and who knows how many individual department SharePoint sites. That's the challenge that Chris Harrer and his team at Comcast faced when tasked with bringing this fragmented digital ecosystem together into a seamless digital employee experience with the relaunch of the company's intranet, ComcastNow.  In this episode of Get Reworked, Chris, former AVP of digital internal communications at Comcast and IMPACT award winner gives us an inside look into how he and his team untangled the fragmented digital ecosystem that was ComcastNow, the company's intranet, to deliver an unified digital employee experience. "We did a lot of research. We did surveys, obviously, and we did many individual stakeholder sessions. I think we did 36 stakeholder sessions, and that went from everywhere from literally the CIO, the CHRO, all the way down to department heads. We did end users in general, all the way from the frontline all the way up.

The 16:9 PODCAST IS SPONSORED BY SCREENFEED – DIGITAL SIGNAGE CONTENT One of the things I noticed bombing around the two exhibit halls at InfoComm in June was how most of the digital signage software companies were located in one hall, and some of them not looking all that busy, while there were at least a couple of others in the other hall, and they were packed with people. One of those companies was Appspace, and it was clear to me why the company was there with a very prominent stand. They were with their people, so to speak. While Appspace may have started years ago as another digital signage CMS software option, it now refers to itself as a unified workplace experience platform. That's why it was nested in with a bunch of other tech companies that provide the kinds of technologies - like collaboration tools - that drive contemporary workplaces. The company started out small, but now has 450 staff, offices all over the planet, and about 40% of the Fortune 500 as customers. I had a chat with Chief Innovation Officer Thomas Philippart de Foy back in 2022, and I wanted to do a catch-up with him because I was intrigued by what the company is up to. I also wanted to know more about how Appspace products have steadily been stitched into the fabric of how a lot of companies communicate, and tied in with many or most of the core tools now used around modern workplaces. I also wanted to better understand the company's recent announcement of developing native support for its software within Microsoft's Teams. Lots of CMS software companies have tie-ins these days  with video conferencing tools, but Thomas explains in our chat how this is different. Subscribe from wherever you pick up new podcasts. TRANSCRIPT Thomas, nice to chat again. We've done a podcast in the past, but for people who maybe don't know much about Appspace and didn't listen to the last one, the fools, could you give me a rundown of what Appspace is all about?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Hi Dave. Thanks for having me on this podcast again. Appspace has changed a lot over the last 15 or 20 years. It was a digital signage vendor company many years ago. We are now considering ourselves as more of a unified workplace experience platform, delivering a lot of services to large enterprise customers, whether it's digital signage, which is one of the communication channels that we have, or an app, an intranet, or a whole workplace management suite of products. So the company has changed. We have around 450 people globally with offices around the world and really focused on the enterprise market, although we do a lot in the education space as well. Around 200 of the Fortune 500 companies use Appspace today.  Where is the company based? Is it in Dallas?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Well, originally, the company was based in Dallas. Today, a lot of the leadership team is based in Tampa, Florida. So, I would say there is probably a split of headquarters between Dallas and Tampa. Both offices are very important for us in the US.  In the early days, you can correct me, but I think a lot of the development was done in Malaysia, right? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yes. We still have a very large product engineering organization in Malaysia. Our Chief Product Officer and co-founder, Stan Stephens is still based over there. So that hasn't changed, but obviously, we acquired a company in the US, The Marlin company, a few years back. So we have additional resources elsewhere in the US and then we acquired Beezy, which is an Intranet company out of Barcelona in Spain. So we now have a big dev team out of Barcelona and some dev people out of Porto in Portugal as well. I was at Infocomm recently and found my way over to the Central Hall. Most of the digital signage stuff was in the West Hall, but, if you could take a bus over to the Central Hall because of all the construction, I walked through there and saw the Appspace booth and saw it was very large and very, very busy. And you guys were just in the midst of an announcement. So I thought, well, okay, this would be a good time to kind of catch up on the company and what it's up to that announcement was around Teams integration, and I thought that was kind of interesting because I thought you were already integrated with Teams and it sounds like a lot of companies have done that, but what you're doing was distinct.  Could you explain to me and the listeners what's different about the integration you've done with Teams and with the other platforms?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Sure. I remember having that conversation with you years back about digital signage on devices in meeting rooms and the benefits it would have for large organizations. Obviously, the pandemic increased the value of content on screens in meeting rooms, whether it's for safety purposes or education on how to use the technology in the room. We've natively integrated with several platforms, first with Cisco, integrating directly into their Control Hub platform. This allows you to enable signage from their backend. We also integrated Poly with Logitech. Today, we're especially excited because we're natively integrated into Microsoft Teams Rooms, the leading video conferencing platform in the industry, and being integrated directly into Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR) makes it extremely easy for large organizations to scale signage services to all those devices from MTR directly.  This means that when you enter a room, you're greeted with content on the screen. That content could be a welcome message, instructions on how to use the meeting space, or how to keep it clean after your meeting.  It could be corporate messaging, but it can also include Microsoft Teams Rooms instructions, helping users navigate the technology in the room.  We're very excited about the reception we received at Infocomm from customers. I was actually locked into a little meeting room under NDA; it was focused solely on Microsoft, and customers could come in to discover not only what we're doing with MTR but also our integration with Microsoft Teams through our embedded app and our SharePoint integration, essentially everything we're doing with Microsoft. And what's the difference between when other software companies say they're integrated with Teams and when you say there's a native integration? What's the difference there?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: The first and the most important one is that we're the only vendor that's certified with Microsoft Teams Rooms. So if you have an issue with your MTR endpoint and you're running a noncertified digital signage solution on it, Microsoft is likely to say, “Hey, you're not using the product as it was designed. Therefore, it's not supported.” Because many large companies are using MTR, you would expect those companies to want to standardize on something certified by Microsoft. So certainly there is that aspect.  The other one is how you deploy it. A lot of companies have so-called digital signage levering a web URL. We're running our app on an MTR endpoint, and it's deployed through MTR. So from a deployment standpoint, from a monitoring,  it is a true digital signage endpoint, like any of the other apps-based digital signage endpoint. That gives you many additional capabilities around the narrowcasting of content, broadcasting in case of emergency, and so forth. So I think those two are really critical.  There are other benefits to managing Appspace from MTR. But I would say just first, make sure you're using a Microsoft Certified solution so that you're fully supported and then the second is being able to deploy this at scale and have an MTR endpoint behave as a true digital signage endpoint and not just a web URL inside Microsoft, which is what some companies do with Zoom. That is not true digital signage as you know.  So because it's just a web URL, it's just showing a web page like any other web page versus what you're saying is because it's natively integrated, it's a true endpoint and you, you have the ability to know what's going on with it and manage it as well?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's correct. You're able to monitor exactly what content is displaying. You're able to cache content and not stream everything. I mean, it's our full Appspace app that's running on the device. Okay. So with that, is it a kind of a push situation where your customer-facing salespeople and your business partners are saying to companies: You have this collaboration display in a bunch of your rooms, and it's sitting dark a lot of the time, you could do things with it?  Or are the end-user customers saying, “Hey, we have this collaboration display that's sitting dark a lot of the time, can we do something with it?” Thomas Philippart de Foy: I think it's a combination of the requests. What we're seeing is there's a lot of digital real estate deployed in companies that is not used all the time, whether because there's no video conferencing happening or there's no call, no meeting happening in the meeting space, but those meeting space are still visible from outside, either because there's a window that opens up to the meeting space or because it's one of those new types of Huddle meeting spaces, which are open.  So there's a request from internal comms and facilities to use as much digital real estate as possible they have to communicate to employees around the workplace and comms and safety. and there's less and less appetite for companies to print. So they're looking for every digital real estate they can leverage. So I think there's certainly that, and we're getting asked constantly by big companies saying, “Hey, we're rolling out AppSpace. We want to target the meeting group.” That's very, very important to us.  But we're also starting to see the teams that are using the technology for their day-to-day operations saying, "Hey, can I actually put my content on those screens as well? It's my meeting room in my neighborhood, where I have my team. I want to be able to use that screen when someone enters the room to talk about our team's performance and really narrowcast to their team.” So that's why they want full control of the device and not just a web URL streaming generic. Now, do they have to go into the Appspace application to produce that content or to load it in, or is it somewhat headless in that they can produce something in whatever toolset they use and it's, and because of the hooks that are set up, it'll show up there?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah. Both are possible. One of our most popular integrations is with SharePoint. If the comms team is producing content on SharePoint, we have a connector that allows us to fetch that content and repurpose it for digital signs so that it automatically populates.  I mean, that's been a very old story, right? We heard about the need for repurposing existing content from third-party tools. SharePoint is super popular in the Microsoft ecosystem. but it's not only that. But so you could imagine having a playlist of content playing on an MTR endpoint that's just fetching. Microsoft Content from SharePoint that is potentially related to a team or related even to the IT team that operates the MTR endpoint. So now, what you're seeing on the digital sign is the how-to instructions that were actually created in SharePoint.  There seems to be a real distinction between companies that have decided to make their workplace their core vertical market and, let's say, other digital signage companies, whether they offer software solutions that include workplaces as one of their capabilities.  Looking through the Appspace website, it strikes me that this is all you do, and you realized or have learned through the years that you can't just offer a digital signage solution. You've got to be making a space reservation, booking, assignment, and all kinds of other things like that. So what is the range of services?  And, also, is that what you found that guys have said, look, if we're going to work with you, this has to be just more than something that's going to put messages on screens? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, I mean, if I go back, I think we were one of the very first digital signage companies to say our focus is going to be the workplace and not retail and transportation and others and we were very early there. So we focused on building our product to address the needs of the corporate market and corporate communications.  When we acquired Marlin, we were acquiring a company that was focused on frontline workers, and communication on digital signs. So again, staying very much in our focus area of workplace communication versus retail or other channels. When the pandemic hit, we had a lot of customers who reached out to us and said, our workers are now back home, we need to continue to deliver the message that they were used to seeing on digital signs, but we need to deliver it on their personal devices. That's really when we focused and started focusing on personal devices, released our employee app, and did an intranet acquisition and suddenly, all of this started to make sense for customers. One single platform to deliver across multiple communication channels, but all natively integrated, not something where you're trying to put solutions together.  So we do email publishing, publish to Microsoft Teams, WebEx, and Slack, publish on digital signs, publish into an employee app, publish on an intranet, and all of those are native features of the app-based platform. They're not point products that we're plugging one into the other. That means that from a core comm standpoint or facilities when you're creating content, you know you have the ability to amplify your message to all those communication channels and that all of that is going to be automated.  Now, while we were doing this and focusing on the comms aspect, there was a real need for a new weight for users to plan their journey into the office. You were no longer going and sitting at a desk and just booking a meeting room through Outlook. You needed to book a building pass to access the building. You need to reserve a hot desk or a hotel desk to be able to book other resources like a smart lock or a parking place, all those resources that are needed for you to have a productive user journey. And so we delivered the features In the apps that we had, so it was easy to do it on the signage front for scheduling panels because it's the same app that runs on the digital sign that actually runs on the scheduling panel. The same thing for the wayfinding kiosks, the interactive kiosks that we were doing years ago now also support wayfinding services, and then because we launched a mobile app for employee communication, all we had to do was enable those workplace services in that same employee app, so employees have only one app, one app to receive the latest company news, to be connected to the workplace, but also to manage their journey into the office.  Today, it's a whole suite. That's why we call ourselves a unified workplace experience platform. We have one app that team members use on their personal devices, phones, desktops, and tablets. Then, we have one app that runs in the physical workplace, on digital signs, on an MTR endpoint, on a scheduling panel, on a wayfinding kiosk, and on a desk bar. And then, at the core, you have Appspace.  How do companies get their employees to use that?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's probably the biggest challenge for any organization in launching a new app is user adoption for different reasons. You may have frontline workers who don't have a company email. So we had to support one-time password and digital signage plays a key role there in getting users to activate their one-time password.  Use digital signage, say there's a new app available for you. Scan the QR code. It asks you to enter your employee's unique identifier, your personal email address or phone number. You get a one-time password, and you're then able to log into the app and have access. So that's number one. You need to make sure that everyone is a first citizen of the modern workplace—your front-line worker, or desk worker, whether you have an email address or not. The second thing is a lot of people use their personal devices and if you're like me, I'm not in favor of using my personal device to use a company-needed app. So I want options. One of the options is to have a fully responsive web app, a PWA. So, if you access Appspace on your Safari or Chrome browser, it behaves exactly like a native app. The first time you log in, you can actually pin it on your home screen. Next time you go in, there is no address bar, you have the full app experience, but it's a web app. You didn't download it from an app store. Makes it easier.  And then finally, For IT, the biggest challenge is certifying an iOS or an Android app on mobile devices. That takes a lot of time, sometimes 6 months, 12 months, even, to get the certification. So what we did is we embedded our app in Microsoft Teams, and because it is now the number one app used on desktops and mobile devices in the corporate space, you just, as an IT organization, need to enable the Appspace app in the admin console of Microsoft Teams, and one morning the user wakes up and they have on the sidebar next to do a call, your meetings, you now have the Appspace app and all the capabilities embedded in Microsoft Teams.  That from a user adoption point is game-changing, because now you don't need to certify an app, you don't need your users to download a new app, you don't need your users to remember a web URL, the app is just there living in Microsoft Teams. So you don't have people going, okay, what is this weird thing?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's correct.  I'm curious, you mentioned the pandemic and COVID and there was endless writing about how this is going to change workplaces, everything's different. Will people ever go back to the office and so on?  I work from home and haven't worked in an office for a very, very long time, so I don't see it, but I'm curious, did it genuinely change, or did it just kind of sort of change? Thomas Philippart de Foy: I think it really changed. I think employees will go back into the office, and most companies want that for cultural reasons, productivity reasons, and so forth, but the way we will go back into the office will never be the same. The physical workplace has changed. There are fewer desks than there were before, more meeting spaces of all sorts, huddle spaces, meeting rooms, conference rooms, a lot more, and so the way a user is going to operate in the physical workplace is never going to be the same as it was before. I think that's huge.  Also, we're still learning, and companies are still learning, changing, and adjusting. And so the core, the heartbeat of the workplace, in our case, Appspace needs to be super flexible to be able to implement new rules and new workflows to enable the user to plan their journey into the office and also to drive the behavior of a user. We have a huge services organization that implemented hot desking and hotelling, and when they opened their office, all the consultants and partners rushed into the office, and they had a huge capacity issue. People didn't book their workspace, so they expected they were going to find one, and there was no workplace available, so they got super frustrated. So, the company implemented managed power outlets at the desk, and power is only enabled if you reserve your desk and check in on arrival. The following day, people who came into the office without reserving a workspace and trying to hijack a desk didn't have power, and that never happened twice. When you run out of power, you always figure out how to reserve your power for the next time you go around. So I think those behaviors are changing, and technology is there to help the behaviors change, supporting the behaviors. And I think that's huge. So it's not telling an employee you have to reserve is telling the employee that if you reserve, you get all those incremental benefits,  Are you also able to support a lot of the devices that I saw in walking around Infocomm, and some of them I was already aware of like very small displays or even just little LED light things that communicate that this space is available, or maybe a display that says the space is available between these times and it's booked these other times or whatever?  I find those things very interesting in terms of office hoteling and so on.  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, the number of new devices released in the last two years has been crazy. Both you and I come from the signage world, and adding a new device and running content on the new devices is native to a digital signage provider. That's what we've always done. So whether you display calendaring data or turn on an LED or not, it's not different from any type of content in general. I think that's where companies who did reservation software are struggling because they don't understand the physical workplace device side of the experience. But coming from the digital signage space in our case, we understand that. So, a scheduling panel back in the day, it was Crestron. Now it's Logitech and iADA and there are so many of those, the Cisco Navigator, and there are so many devices.  And because we're completely OS and hardware-agnostic, you run our app on it, and you deliver the scheduling experience and then the desk plugs are the same, whether you take the Crestron desk plug, the iADA desk plug, or the nPlug, they're all small desk plugs that allow you to run an app on it and display the experience on those devices. So for us, it's very native. What's interesting is what incremental device content we are putting on it and that's the other devices we don't see, all those IoT devices in the ceiling that track air quality, room temperature, humidity level, and occupancy. And being able to display that data back on the scheduling panel or on a wayfinding kiosk or a digital sign in the lobby when you enter the building, knowing where's the traffic, what's the occupancy rate, what's the current air quality. I think that's bringing another level of value. And as we always used to say in the digital signage world, content is king. I assume you do analytics of some kind and how are they used?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: So analytics has always been a big part of administrative users of the Appspace platform to monitor the success of the communication campaign, being able to track which content plays at which time of the day and then when you combine it with tools such as audience measurements, cameras that try eyeball dwell time, then analytics becomes much richer because it's now a communication channel that you can really monitor and track the engagement level, but analytics on the workplace management is as important.  How many users came to the office? What's the average use of a workspace or type of workspace? Whether a meeting room is underutilized or overutilized with regard to the number of attendees? All of that data is extremely important. So we've built a lot of analytics and reporting capabilities in the Appspace Admin platform, so you can actually pull your reports, export all the data and view it live into Tableau or Power BI, correlate it with IoT sensor data, so you can now start to see Not only scheduled based data but also live data. So I know this room was booked for six, but my live data tells me only four people are in the meeting room. I'm, therefore, underutilizing the workspace, or I'm running this communication campaign in the lobby, and I currently have 40 people standing in the lobby. That's useful data that you can have. Now, when you add AI to it, AI starts to give us insights and recommendations. It will tell the facilities team whether or not you're about to run out of a certain type of resource. We're seeing a trend of desks with two monitors in the docking station, and we expect that within the next 30 days, you're going to run out of capacity, which will allow facilities to adjust their workplace and anticipate. And the same thing is true with the workplace. We've just released this week. The ability to create content on the signage and to auto-generate a QR code on the digital sign that will link to the origin of the content, whether it was SharePoint, your Appspace intranet, or the employee app. So when you view the content, you scan the QR code, you're redirected. That analytic is captured and now you have true engagement on whether or not the communication campaign is successful.  Do you find that all these insights, are inherently actionable, but are your end user customers doing things with it? Or are they just kind of seeing and going, “Okay, this is what's going on?”  Thomas Philippart de Foy: No, on the facility side, it's huge because that environment is changing constantly, and they're looking at the best ways to optimize their workplace. So analytics is one of the most important things they want to get out of the Appspace platform.  From comms, now that we've re we really have true multi-communication channels, iit is becoming increasingly important for them to monitor their communication campaign. “Hey, I posted a story in the employee app. It was broadcasted on the digital sign in the Microsoft Teams channel in an email newsletter. I can track where users are getting access to that story. Is it directly from the app through an app notification? Is it because they saw it on the digital sign and scanned the QR code? Is it because they saw it in their email inbox and clicked on it?”  Most importantly, we allow reactions and comments and shares, and that provides additional analytics and so now that also provides additional value in understanding how people are reacting. But what's exciting with AI is that based on how content is trending, you can actually change the playlist on your digital sign to display content that is trending up or trending down to make sure you're getting the right message out to the user and you're promoting the right message and I think everyone is becoming more hungry for more of that. A lot of what I see on the Appspace site and what we've talked about seems oriented to. white collar spaces to offices. Are you doing much in the so-called back of the house, production facilities, warehouses, factories, that sort of thing?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: A lot. I always start all my presentations to customers saying that we treat everyone as a first citizen of the modern workplace, and that's not just marketing. It's true. We want to make sure everyone benefits from the services that the organization's putting in place.  Signage for frontline workers is huge in warehouses. It's massive. When we acquired the Marlin company, it was because their number one focus was people in warehouses and manufacturing plants, making sure they were provided with the right safety information, education, material, and so forth. So I think we will continue to focus there. We're just now expanding the user to go beyond just the digital signage in the warehouse to their phone in their pocket. And if you're an employee or frontline worker in the store, you're not in all the time in the back office, you're often in the front office or in the front of the store, helping your customers to still be able to get that information, those important notifications on your phone are important and I think we do a lot there. Again, unlike most of the signage vendors, we don't focus as much on the screen in the store, talking to the consumers. We're focusing more on the screen in the back office or the screen in the pocket of the user, but we, of course, do digital signage for retail as well. What would happen if a retail chain came to Appspace and said, “Hey, we'd love to work with you guys on digital signage for inside our stores, not for employee comps, but to sell sweaters and shoes and so on.” Would you just say, I'm sorry, we don't do that?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: No, actually, the two largest retailers in Europe use Appspace in the store and in the back office. The project started in the back store and eventually, customers saw, well, why can't I use that in the front store as well? We even integrated, I can't remember the name, with a little company out of the Netherlands who built an integration with Appspace to allow the sale of airtime in the store. We didn't build this natively in Appspace because that's not our focus. But by partnering with companies who have that expertise, we're able to deliver that.  The largest sports brand in the world uses Appspace in all its stores around the world. So we never say no to customers. But what we're very clear about is that we're not building a product just for retail. We're building a product for the workplace and if the features meet your needs, you're more than welcome to use it in the stores. I think we have a lot more than we expected using it.  Interesting. Last question. I get a sense from this discussion and previous chats that if you're a company lurking, looking at workspace as a vertical market, you really need to understand that it's a unique ecosystem and all of the different technology companies that feed into it. You can't just say, “Hey, we can put stuff on your dormant screens and you can talk to your employees through our software.” You really need to stitch yourself in with all of the collaboration companies and all the other technologies that feed into it. Is that a pretty accurate statement? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, I think so. So I think companies are looking to consolidate, that's one thing. They're looking at replacing point products with a platform that delivers all those use cases through features and not point products for use cases like visitor management, room booking, and all. So one login into one app, whether it's a physical workplace app or an employee app on your phone, you have one app, and you do everything from one place. That's for sure. It also needs to be truly integrated with the physical workplace because companies are looking to build up their ROI with the technology they're investing in. So, since the pandemic, everyone has rolled out more video conferencing rooms than before, but they need to justify ROI. ROI is by use of technology for its main purpose. But on top of that, when it's not in use, you can use it to better communicate and engage your audience and provide a better employee experience. There's incremental ROI to the technology. And so we can't be successful without integrating with all the players that exist in the physical workplace, whether they are access control systems to enter the building, how do I know if I have access into the building? When you scan your badge, your badge queries Appspace and confirms that you have a valid reservation and that you're granted access. It starts there, and it goes throughout the journey.  The menu boards of your restaurants, the menu needs to be on your personal device before you even get in the office. You could potentially book your lunch using the app. But when you arrive at the restaurant, the menu board reflects the same information As they have always been, but now you are aware you have that link between, “Hey, I saw that there was this on the menu and I can now see it on the digital sign.” And you have that continuity in the experience.  All right, Thomas. Thank you very much. I once again, learned stuff, which is what this is all about.  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Oh, thanks a lot for having me. It's exciting. I remember the first time we met. I think we had a table at ISE, and now we have a bigger booth I'm glad it caught your attention, but we're super happy, and I'm looking forward to continuing to talk with you over the next few years. All right. Thanks again, and safe travels.  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Thanks. Take care!

It often means watching trusted people in positions of authority turn into bullies and, worse, watching friends and colleagues turn into cowards.That dark reality makes it all the more important to understand those people who do the right thing and stand up for what's right. One of them is James Esses, a British attorney in his early thirties who was kicked out of a training school for therapists for raising concerns about the medical mistreatment of children confused about their gender.As far as cancelations go, Esses's wasn't particularly dramatic or noteworthy. He wasn't a famous actor, musician, or writer. He was just someone who, early in his career, decided he didn't want to be a lawyer anymore and instead wanted to help people with mental health problems.Given that protecting the institutions of civilization requires more ordinary people, without the resources of famous artists and authors, to stand up against bullies, we should seek to understand why they do it so that we might encourage more of it.Esses' journey began in 2020 when he was in his third and final year of getting his therapist's degree from Metanoia Institute and volunteering for a charity to staff a mental health hotline.“I was on the cusp of setting up my own private practice,” he says. “I had children coming through on this helpline saying they were trapped in the wrong bodies and that they wanted to use breast binders and take puberty blockers. They were younger and younger.”The charity told Esses “to kind of just affirm” the pseudoscientific and dehumanizing idea that some children are born into the wrong bodies.“Many had come across this stuff online,” he said. “Many of them were being taught it in school. Children have been taught from a very young age that it's possible to be born in the wrong body and that you can essentially change your sex.”Esses started reading about children being medicalized and given drugs and surgeries. “I couldn't believe what I was reading. We were damaging, irreparably, children in the name of an ideology that isn't founded in evidence or fact. I couldn't believe it."“The message from the training institutions and our regulatory bodies as therapists was, essentially, affirm,” Esses explained. “Don't explore. Don't challenge. Affirm transitioning, no matter what. And to me, that flew in the face of proper therapeutic ethics and the Hippocratic oath. So I couldn't simply abide by that. I felt compelled to start speaking out about it.”Esses cofounded with some colleagues a new group, Thoughtful Therapists. “I wrote a petition to the UK government,” he said. “I started engaging on social media for the first time about this, doing some interviews, and writing some articles. And then, out of the blue, one day in May, I received an email from my institution telling me that they were expelling me with immediate effect.”Esses says the experience was humiliating. “It was a two-paragraph email that simply said that there had been some complaints about my writing and my advocacy and that I had brought them into disrepute, and so they were expelling me with immediate effect.“They blocked my email and my access to the university Intranet portal,” he said. “And they had, on Twitter, publicized the fact that they had expelled me.”Esses was shattered. “I was in an awful state. In a single email, my entire future life plans went up in smoke. I hadn't done anything wrong. All I had done was raise concerns essentially about child safeguarding.”Esses had done the right thing and was now paying a heavy price. “For the first for the first couple of days, I didn't want to get out of bed. You know, I was really that low.”

La comunicación corporativa es fundamental para el éxito de una organización en el entorno empresarial actual. Lograr que sea efectiva no sólo implica transmitir información, sino también construir y mantener relaciones sólidas con empleados, clientes, socios y otras partes interesadas. En este episodio hablamos de los principios clave de la mano de Leon Kadoch, quien lidera operaciones de marketing y comunicación corporativa en distintas organizaciones desde hace más de 15 años. En la actualidad, la comunicación corporativa enfrenta varios desafíos, los cuales pueden variar, pero hay uno que afronta toda empresa y es “vencer el ruido”: “Tenemos información que nos llueve todos los días. Debemos encontrar la manera de que nuestra empresa sobresalga entre tanta información a través de nuestro mensaje, llegando a las audiencias que queremos”, comenta nuestro invitado. Otro de los desafíos a tener en cuenta son las diferencias culturales que pueden afectar la interpretación de mensajes. Una comunicación corporativa adaptada a ellas permite superar las barreras lingüísticas y culturales. “Las empresas que operan en el entorno global deben comunicar sus mensajes de manera efectiva a las diferentes culturas. No les puedes hablar a todos de la misma manera”, afirma nuestro especialista, quien también suma como desafío la transformación digital, ya que la tecnología está cambiando el consumo del mundo: “Tenemos que saber adaptarnos”, remarca. “Y algo que también es muy importante es que los consumidores buscan transparencia, verdad y credibilidad. Tenemos que ser capaces de construir esa imagen para nuestras audiencias”, agrega Leon. Lograr una comunicación corporativa eficaz implica seguir un proceso bien estructurado que requiere de una buena estrategia comercial. “Antes de iniciar en un país hay que estudiar sus hábitos, sus consumos, si hay oportunidad comercial, si hay necesidad de tu producto, etc.”, recalca nuestro invitado, y subraya: “Los colaboradores que trabajen en ella deben estar alineados con la estrategia de la compañía y deben estar informados sobre lo que está haciendo la empresa. Así los empleados se pueden convertir en embajadores de la empresa, sino no se van a sentir comprometidos con la compañía”. A nivel externo es importante que estemos listos y adaptados para efectuar cambios rápidamente. “Tenemos que tener los insumos preparados lo más pronto posible y que estén internalizados. Si no estamos preparados para la inmediatez con la ayuda de la tecnología, no nos irá bien”, advierte nuestro especialista. Seleccionar los canales de comunicación adecuados es importante para garantizar el flujo de la comunicación corporativa. “Para la comunicación interna existen canales estándar, como el correo electrónico, los newsletters para estar al día, o se puede usar la Intranet, que es un portal web donde está toda la información corporativa. También se puede utilizar WhatsApp y crear grupos de trabajo”, enumera Leon. “A nivel externo, lo más fundamental para la comunicación de una compañía es su sitio web. Allí es donde las personas van a ir a buscarte. Luego están las redes sociales, donde tienes que tener presencia y tu mensaje claro dirigido a tus audiencias. Y a ello se suman los medios de comunicación y la publicidad”, añade. La gestión de la comunicación corporativa durante tiempos de crisis es crítica para preservar la reputación de la empresa y mantener la confianza de sus partes interesadas. La consistencia, la autenticidad y la empatía son pilares fundamentales cuando nos toca enfrentar contratiempos. “Hay que tener un mensaje consistente y que nuestro tono de voz se mantenga a lo largo del tiempo. Cuando surgen crisis, hay que investigar a profundidad cuál es el origen, las ramificaciones y qué es lo peor que puede suceder y cómo vamos a sobrellevarlo. No podemos llevar problemas sin saber las soluciones. La persona que va a representar a la empresa tiene que estar perfectamente entrenada para exponerse en estos tiempos complicados de la compañía”, finaliza nuestro invitado. Instagram: @leonkadoch

We often talk about measuring progress, but it can sometimes be harder to do in practice than in theory, especially when you're combining mixed research methods. However, some teams have managed to not only make sense of the data, but use it to make award-winning designs. In this episode we feature two members of Princeton University's award-winning intranet team: Charlie Kreitzberg, Senior UX Advisor, and Christian Knoebel, Director Digital Strategy, and how they combined two frameworks: the 5D Rubric and pairLab, to bridge the gap between UX and product design.

In early January of 1992, Celeste Simone Carrington, from East Palo Alto, California, embarked on a crime spree, murdering people while burglarizing businesses in which she had previously worked as a janitor. (note: time stamps are without ads & may be off a little) First, we dive into the setting (11:45), the killer's early life (24:18) and the timeline (28:07). Then, we get into the investigation & arrest (37:28), "Where are they now?" (46:54) followed by our takeaways and what we think made the perp snap (47:43).   As usual we close out the show with some tips on how not to get murdered (53:48) and our shout outs (55:38).  This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams.
