In recent years, organizations have started to experiment with skills-based hiring by dropping degree requirements and other credentials in job postings to unlock new talent populations. However, a fully-realized skills-based hiring approach demands deep change in talent processes and hiring manager practices. To this point, most organizations have been unable to weave this method into the fabric of their talent strategy. Joseph Fuller, professor at Harvard Business School, rejoins the Talent Angle to discuss his latest research: “Skills-Based Hiring: The Long Road from Pronouncements to Practice.” Joseph shares data to show the extent to which skills-based hiring commitments have translated to meaningful action, and offers practical guidance to help organizations broaden the aperture of their talent pools. Joseph Fuller is a professor of management practice in general management at Harvard Business School and co-leads the school's initiative, Managing the Future of Work. He founded the consulting firm Monitor Group, now Monitor Deloitte, and has worked with senior executives and policymakers on a wide variety of issues related to corporate strategy and national competitiveness.   Dion Love is a vice president of research and advisory services at Gartner.

Ed Arnold works with B2B companies to develop their value-based pricing strategies. His specialty is translating a company's competitive advantage into a viable customer value pricing strategy, as well as advising on commercial execution. In this episode, Ed shares when value conversations are most effective. He highlights the need to tailor value models to each prospect through open-ended questions that uncover key business drivers. Because when value is clearly demonstrated, price becomes a secondary concern, resulting in smoother sales and fewer pricing objections.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn why guiding customers to do their own value math is more persuasive than presenting a pre-made ROI model. Discover how value conversations shift the focus from cost to impact, making price negotiations smoother. Understand why dumping numbers on customers backfires and how to engage them in a way that builds trust and buy-in.   "As customers, we have a good sense of what a great deal is. But as sellers, we're much less certain about what that value is. You need to have value conversations to get at that." - Ed Arnold   Topics Covered: 00:57 - How he accidentally got into, left, and keeps returning to pricing 03:25 - Explaining how pricing challenges often signal deeper business issues 08:46 - Why customers distrust ROI calculators 11:05 - What value conversation is all about and how to effectively go through it 14:00 - Emphasizing that trust is built through reliability and honest engagement 16:57 - How many good salespeople are there and what make good salespeople 19:17 - The importance of market focus and playbooks in sales 20:49 - Showing the most effective value conversation to have  25:03 - How he trains salespeople on value conversations 29:53 - Noting that while he focuses on larger customers, the same value-based principles apply to marketing lower-ACV products 30:24 - Ed's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: "You cannot solve any pricing issue without tackling the strategy. And if the strategy is flawed, then the pricing isn't going to help you." - Ed Arnold "...and this is the thing that I think about value stories. It's not about the product. It's about the customer. The customer is the star of the story." - Ed Arnold   People/Resources Mentioned: Steven Forth: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevenforth/ Forrester: https://www.forrester.com/bold/ Monitor Deloitte: https://www.deloitte.com/global/en/services/consulting/services/monitor-deloitte.html Leverage Point: https://www.leveragepoint.com/   Connect with Ed Arnold: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edarnold1/   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Did you know that it takes 140 liters of water to make a single cup of coffee? Turns out that coffee, as far as plant crops are concerned, has a fairly heavy footprint on the planet. And it's getting harder to farm, with climate change altering where and how many coffee beans can even be grown. You've heard of making meat without chickens, and milk without cows. Well, you can also now get coffee without beans. This episode's guest is the CEO of Minus, a startup reimagining how you enjoy your daily brew. Minus has developed an innovative way to replicate the rich flavor, aroma, and experience of coffee without using coffee beans at all. Minus' beanless coffee emits 86% less carbon than traditional coffee, uses 94% less water and utilizes 92% less land. Made from upcycled ingredients like date seeds and grape seeds, this alt-coffee is primarily marketed to women for reasons you'll hear from CEO Maricel Saenz. The traditional coffee industry is rife with challenges, from deforestation and water-intensive farming practices to the instability of supply chains caused by climate change. Minus aims to address these issues head-on with a sustainable, scalable alternative that delivers the same satisfying experience without the environmental baggage. We'll explore the science behind beanless coffee, the startup's journey from concept to reality, and the potential impact of this bold innovation on coffee lovers and the planet. Whether you're a caffeine connoisseur or just curious about how cutting-edge food tech is reshaping our world, this conversation is one you won't want to miss. Discussed in this episode You can buy Minus coffee from their website. Maricel recommends the Y Combinator Startup Library. Maricel also recommends reading Regnesis. Our past episodes on chocolate without farming cocoa and bean-free coffee. More about Maricel Saenz Maricel Saenz is a Costa Rican entrepreneur living in California with a strong passion for sustainability and innovation. She is the founder and CEO of Compound Foods, a food-tech startup that aims to reduce supply chains and food waste while creating sustainable and valuable products through fermentation.

Maricel holds a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of British Columbia and attended Singularity University's Global Solutions Program in 2017. She has a diverse background, having previously co-founded Nextbiotics, a synthetic biology startup that addressed antibiotic resistance.

Dr. Thomas (Tom) Nagle founded the Strategic Pricing Group (now part of Monitor Deloitte) in 1987 soon after publication of the first edition of The Strategy and Tactics of Pricing. For more than three decades, he has advised companies, primarily in B-to-B markets, on how to manage more profitably the five elements of pricing strategy: Value Creation, Value Communication, Price Structure, Pricing Policy, and Competitive Price Setting. In this episode, Tom shares how value is perceived and measured by customers, emphasizing the distinction between economic value and willingness to pay. He also delves into the complexities of pricing negotiations, highlighting the importance of understanding customer perceptions and effectively communicating the impact of products or services on their business outcomes.    Why you have to check out today's podcast: Understand the intricacies of value-based pricing, distinguishing between economic value and willingness to pay, and providing real-life examples illustrating these concepts effectively Delve into these two critical decisions buyers make to help you better understand and influence customer purchasing behaviors Find out practical advice on handling price negotiations, emphasizing the importance of "gives and gets" and strategies to avoid undermining your pricing integrity   "Don't ever believe what the customer is telling you upfront about what their value is.

The goal is to figure out why we have all this variation and use that variation to create segments that eliminate the trade off between price and volume." - Tom Nagle "The value isn't in the product.

What responsibility do small insurance firms have to implement sustainable practices, and encourage their clients to do the same? What initiatives can SMEs put in place to cut down on their carbon footprint without compromising their bottom line? Or is a transition towards sustainable efforts ultimately commercially beneficial? At Macaii we believe that podcasting is the best way to learn, and this episode of Changing the Conversation is a testament to that endeavour. We are thrilled to be speaking with Gillie Fairbrother and Mike Wrathall in a highly engaging and informative episode covering the importance of embracing sustainable practices as an industry, and the practical steps smaller firms can take to do so. This conversation cuts through the buzzwords and vague broad strokes discussions about a need to create change, highlighting the profound responsibility and the various opportunities that sustainability represents for our industry.   Quote of the Episode “The insurance industry as a whole has a massive role to play in sustainability. It's an investor. It's one of the biggest investor groups in the world. It's an enabler of business. So, whether you're an oil rig or a new wind farm, you need insurance to get that project off the ground. What the insurance industry chooses to insure is what happens, effectively. So, if the industry moves away from insuring so-called ‘dirty economy' things over a period of time and moves towards insuring new areas that are breaking ground, it can really enable those new areas, new climate technologies to get off the ground, and it can help phase out the other areas.”   When assessing our sustainable responsibilities as an industry, it is key that we examine not only the direct, first-hand carbon footprint of our own businesses, but also those of our clients. By insuring our clients' businesses, we are effectively interconnected with their sustainable efforts, or lack thereof. By insuring businesses that deploy or harvest fossil fuels, we enable them and must take some responsibility for the damage they cause to our environment. Equally, this presents an opportunity. If we can encourage our clients to transition towards new practices and green technologies, we can precipitate extensive, sustainable change across an array of businesses, industries and economies.   Key Takeaways As an industry, we have the power to nudge the business community in the right direction with regards to sustainability. We can use policy terms to behaviourally transition clients away from outdated practices, ratcheting premiums up and down in response to sustainable endeavours. Yet, whilst we undoubtedly hold significant power in the sustainability conversation as an industry overall, our economy is primarily comprised of small businesses (99%) which may feel somewhat powerless to contribute anything significant beyond compliance with sustainability regulations. The same is true for small insurance firms. Both Gillie and Mike affirm that firstly, it is key to identify what your business' exposure is, and identify where to play in the sustainability space. Could your business cover a new or growing area, such as climate tech or wind farms? Can you incorporate sustainable efforts into your policies to encourage good behaviours in your clients?   Ultimately, our industry aims to make its clients' businesses more viable and successful. If we are to encourage sustainable efforts in our clients, it is key to identify and illuminate the demonstrably positive impact of such practices on their bottom line. There will always be a range of client needs with regards to sustainability, with some simply wishing to comply with regulations, and others aiming to positively impact the planet through their work. Wherever our clients fall on that gradient of ambition, articulating the opportunity for their bottom line will always help to push them up that curve. Not only is sustainability ultimately a profitable enterprise. We are now at a stage economically where sustainable practices cannot simply be considered a tick-box ethical business practice exercise. A failure to implement these broadly across insurance and into the businesses we support as an industry will lead to catastrophic economic consequences in the not-too-distant future. As Mike argues, ‘the only real growth story for the economies and businesses of the century is going to be a sustainable one'.   Mike notes that we ultimately need to create a circular, regenerative global economy which forefronts sustainability. This will be highly reliant on digital connection, supplanted by an array of climate technologies that will become increasingly significant in years to come. In 2018, 9.1% of the world's economy was circular, but in 2023, this had fallen to 7.2%. We cannot afford to go backwards. Ultimately, the insurance industry will bear the brunt when climate disaster strikes. We have a responsibility and a clear business incentive to be ahead of the curve and encourage our clients towards sustainable practices, today.     Best Moments/Key Quotes “We [Davies Group] are actually rebranding to responsible business. But I'm very much keeping that in the background. Like our pillars don't change. We've always aligned with people, planet, and our purpose which aligns with ESG. But it's still everything we're doing as a business and our commitments aren't changing. Let's just get rid of the noise and get on with the work.”   “We have an opportunity as an industry to drive change. But it's hard for businesses to go ahead of regulation. And are we getting the right regulation?”   ‘Digital connection is absolutely essential for the move to anything like a circular economy.'   Resources Larry Fink's 2024 Annual Chairman's Letter - https://www.blackrock.com/corporate/investor-relations/larry-fink-annual-chairmans-letter The Circularity Gap Report 2023 - https://www.circularity-gap.world/2023   About the Guest Gillie Fairbrother is the Director of ESG at Davies Group, a professional services business which provides support to the insurance industry.

Noam Tomaschoff: Writer & Performer Noam's love for musicals came at the tender age of twelve, with his unforgettable performance as “Sam” in Camp Wahanowin's production of Mamma Mia. From there, he made his best friends through musicals at high school, including this show's composer, Ryan Peters; Producer, Russell Citron, and music arranger, Ben Deverett! After a sold-out run of the musical they all wrote together in Grade 12, Just A Regular Day, Noam studied drama at NYU's Tisch School, and after graduation, went on tour with TheatreWorks USA as “Farmer Brown” in the award-winning children's classic, Click Clack Moo. After moving to Los Angeles in 2017, he wrote and directed the feature film Tankhouse, starring Richard Kind and Christopher Lloyd (from Back to the Future!), which was a semi-autobiographical love letter to theatre and theatre kids. Tankhouse was distributed by Vertical Entertainment and released in 2022.  Ryan Peters: Composer Ryan Peters is a High School Drama and English teacher living in Toronto. Although his days performing onstage are likely behind him, Ryan has performed in musicals such as Cabaret, Kiss of the SpiderWoman, Into the Woods, Company, and The Last Five Years. In his spare time, he enjoys team-building, song-leading, and composing musicals about his close friends' life-altering genetic discoveries. Ryan is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with his childhood and extremely talented friends on this meaningful project — their first musical theatre collaboration since High School. He can't wait to share it with all of you! Russell Citron: Producer Russell Citron is an entrepreneur and Harvard MBA who is thrilled to be working with his high school friends to bring this musical to life. Russell's theatrical history began (and peaked) in elementary school, with his performance as Simba in the Lion King and Thenardier in Les Miserables. It was mostly downhill from there, as his more talented friends Noam and Ryan took the lead roles and sent him to perform as secondary characters, like Benny in RENT, which he played (and loved) in three different shows. Russell has taken a few vocal lessons here and there and still somehow believes that he will perform on Broadway one day. Outside of theatre, Russell was the founder & CEO of CrowdChange, a fundraising technology company. He is also the co-founder of Feed the Deed, a viral social media campaign spreading 10,000+ acts of kindness across the world. Prior to CrowdChange, Russell was a management consultant at Monitor Group and Monitor Deloitte. He hasn't produced a musical since their “five-pack” of high school friends co-produced their original musical, Just a Regular Day, but he has been dreaming of the day the group would get back together and is excited that it finally has come. He can't wait for opening night and the journey ahead OUR LITTLE SECRET: THE 23&ME MUSICAL is the hilarious, moving, and completely true story of Noam Tomaschoff's discovery that he wasn't an only child, and he actually had more than 35 siblings around the world.  ​ With a deft blend of comedy, drama, and wide ranging musical styles, Noam takes the audience on the roller coaster ride of emotions and discovery that he experienced over this past year, ending with a message of optimism that is sure to make you hold your family just a little bit tighter. https://www.ourlittlesecretmusical.com/ “Brothers” Song preview video https://vimeo.com/834135156?share=copy

I'm your host, Brian Ardinger, and as always, we have another amazing guest. Today we have Tim Bottke. He is Senior Strategy Partner at Monitor Deloitte, and author of the new book Digital Transformation Payday: Navigate the Hype, Lower the Risks, Increase Return on Investments. Welcome to the show, Tim. Tim Bottke: Hi Brian.Brian Ardinger: Tim, I am excited to have you on the show. You've got a very interesting book about digital transformation. What is digital transformation? Tim Bottke: You know what the funny thing is. Like over these four years of research, which I spent preparing, the book. Became clear, there is just no single universally agreed definition of what digital transformation is. And that's driven by the fact that so many different interest groups have worked on the topic. Each with their own agenda.And very often you'll find that the key word in this term is transformation. And digital, it should be it, it is not always like that should be means to an end, which is transforming. And transformation is also no objective by itself. It needs to happen to make sure that a strategy is established, which helps companies win in the marketplace.And very often you see with clients and also all the companies I researched for the book, that people transform but don't know what to transform to. And that's why people often ask for a definition. And the definition is it's about a transformation with the objective of being able to have sustainable success in the marketplace. And digital is a tool to do that. There are many others. Brian Ardinger: Well, I'd love to get a little bit more background on like, how did you get involved in digital transformation and the research that you've been doing on it? What got you excited about it and how did you get your expertise? Tim Bottke: I've been a consultant now for more than 20 years. And like transformation was always a topic in all these times. Whenever I had, we had the early stage, we had the e-commerce boom. I've been in all these faces, and I work in the TMT industry mostly, so, which has always been more digital. At least that's what we believe than many other industries. And that's why with all these companies going up, down, growing, being restructured, transformation has always been there. So it has always been a key interest area I've had. And that's why when the digital transformation hype and I'll call it came up, it has come up several times. It just became the core of my work because there was no transformation where there was no digital inside. And then I had, I still remember this meeting with a dear, really dear client of mine, a CEO who basically said, look Tim, two more years as a CEO in this company. Maybe three. I want to do bigger things. We both know I need to transform this company. Digital transformation is the term. It costs half a billion, and I'm sure I would not see any single benefit while I'm still the CEO. Is it not a better idea if I start wearing jeans and trainers? As of next week, I make my investor relations team paint our annual report with a lot of digital AI, whatever the term is.I invest 50 million in this case, in major startup city of the country, put an incubator and then have some innovation speeches written for me, et cetera. Is that not better and safer for my career? Tell me if I go the other route, what will shareholders benefit really? Please tell me and had no answer.And you know how frustrating that is. At least to me. It was when I couldn't really give a good answer. And it was also clear that mumbling along, throwing a few buzz words wouldn't solve it. So, I went on a quest to solve it. I first started internally. Then no one had the patience to really dig into it because it was, you know, everyone was running high speed digital transformation project after project.No one wanted to question the bigger theme of value, et cetera. But I still got the go from our leadership to work on it by myself. So, I went back to academia. I found out no one has solved it there either, even though IT transformation, you know, has been a trend for long time. IT value has been assessed in hundreds of articles and books, but it didn't ever jump over to digital.It was rather the claim people saying, no, these rules do no longer apply. Now it's digital. We don't need KPIs. It's all about scale. It's all about different KPIs. It's let's be Agile. Look, all these things. And then I started saying look, there needs to be a data driven answer. And that took me some time because I also had a job to do in parallel. I'm still a consultant after all, but I fixed it. I solved it. And that's where this book came from. Brian Ardinger: Yeah. My understanding, you spent about four years researching it, and looking at different ways companies are approaching digital innovation and that. So maybe we'll start with the question, you know, where do companies get digital transformation wrong? You know, what does the research show? What are some of the pitfalls that people are encountering? Tim Bottke: The good thing is I think there is just one single pitfall everyone needs to be aware of. That digital transformation is an end-to-end journey. And no matter what you do. And I have a framework in my book, which is explaining a bit what end-to-end means. But wherever you start, you need to be sure that you know where you want to get. So very often the key thing that companies get wrong is they believe they need a digital strategy, but they don't from my perspective. What they need is a strategy, a strategy to win in the marketplace. And very often in current times, digital can play a key role in it. But they often think if they implement the coolest new CRM system cloud-based with AI supported analysis engines inside. I think the two of us could throw buzzwords now for the next 10 minutes. That this will change anything in terms of success for them in the marketplace. But it doesn't because very often all competitors work on similar things. They very often even use the same software. So, they have the same systems. Often in a few cases, even the same consultants with Chinese walls or whatever.But so they will never end up in a place where when they finish and they never do, they will be better off compared to where they were before, vis-a-vis competition. They might be a better company, more efficient, leaner, faster, but what if all your competitors do the same faster at the same speed? Then you end up in the same market position and you really have to know what you do all this for. So, to answer your question, there's one single thing which is lack of strategy. Lack of end-to-end view. Brian Ardinger: Are you seeing that happen primarily because digital transformation seems to be driven by different parts of their organizations? Or maybe what are you seeing when it comes to how companies are approaching this? Is it from the standpoint of, well, we need a cloud strategy, or we need blockchain, or marketing's driving it because of whatever. What are you seeing in that space? Tim Bottke: That's exactly true. We, as Deloitte, and I strongly believe that this is the reason why it's a CEO topic. And it should be CEO topic. And the CEOs these days, they don't need to understand everything in deep detail in terms of what digital is and what technology's behind.But their task is to get all this complexity under control and have one shared picture of where they're heading. And I've had discussions with clients very often. They say, Tim, I don't want to know what this software can do. Or yeah, I can talk about AI for a minute, but I don't want to know really how natural language processing works and what does it do and machine learning. Yes, I can, I don't know. Then I usually would say, yes, you don't have to know, but you have to know enough that you can get things together in a way that they make your company move. Because very often, as you said, there are silos, there are pilots. Then, I don't know, for robotics process automation, I've seen that there is a pilot. Everyone is excited, and then after a few months they find out that actually the pilot was so great because it was selecting a process in the company, which doesn't scale. But one where it worked nicely. And then they save, I don't know, the equivalent of 10 FTEs. They can put that capacity somewhere else, and then they find out that they have 30,000 employees and that these 10 really don't make any difference for anyone at any point in time. Brian Ardinger: So where do you think companies should start? Maybe even to the standpoint of maybe the CEO's not even convinced yet. Are there things that the average user within a company can start thinking about talking about or, or moving the needle towards, when it comes to digital transformation?Tim Bottke: It's very hard to say. There's no one common theme where you say you should start there. So, these days, very often we see that people believe that the people side of things is crucial. So, you have all these Agile coaching. You start learning how to work Agile. You do agile workshops, and yes, that's a good starting point. But as I said before, it's all about the end-to-end picture.It won't help if you're not able to select the right technologies. If you are not able to find the right vendor. If you don't know how the benefits were really materialized. If you do not simplify your business model, but just replicate what you have. As the framework in the book shows, you can start somewhere at the frontier, as I call it.So, in easy place of the company where everyone is just by definition, wearing jeans and trainers and it's all cool and Agile and design thinking, you know. It's, it's all very, very helpful tools. But I've seen many times that this is working very nicely in this little remote outpost, and it never gets back into the core of the real business.So, if you start somewhere in a certain pocket, then there needs to be a plan, how to make that work at scale and at impact in the core business. If you believe your core business has a reason to exist. There are also some companies where that needs to be restructured and dismantled at some point in time.But even though many books and articles say so that happens less often than you think. There's always a core in the company, which is worth protecting, at least in many businesses. And it's not really like you can just, it's a great idea, that's my favorite quote, disrupt before you are disrupted. Yeah. It's easy to say what does it really mean? You close your company and do something new and that cannot be the answer. Certainly, your shareholders wouldn't allow this because they would wait for the large cash flows, which hopefully were there before to be back before you dismantle the old stuff. Brian Ardinger: So, in your book you talk about how different industries should be looking at maybe different levers to achieve better return and that. Can you talk about the differences in how industries should be approaching digital transformation and which ones are maybe on the leading age versus the lagging edge? Tim Bottke: There was a very interesting learning. So, what the book does, or what your research did was looking into more than 20,000 reports from companies. Then using natural language processing to understand what they're really doing in digital. So, something, it's, there are millions of pages, no human could have done that. We needed some digital transformation in the research to understand what they do. And obviously you can then look into how do different industries behave differently?And the assumption based on experience was they have huge differences, and they are. Obviously, some companies and some industries and sectors are more on the forefront. So, they talk more. They do more digital than others. And others do less. And I think the, you will find more in the book, but the key learning for me was that it's not like you could easily say, look, you are a industry which is lagging. You should speed up. That might be true in some cases, but I have this interesting example where I had a discussion with the executive of an insurance company. And I was saying, look, I look into my data, and you really are nowhere compared to the others. They said, Tim, yeah, we know you're a consultant. You're great in analysis, but partially it's on purpose because we make a lot of money based on in-transparency in our market. And in our home market we still have the beauty of lack of transparency because there's no Insurtech making transparent everything. Putting everything in the open, et cetera. So, we believe we shouldn't disrupt ourselves before we are disrupted. Because we would make good money at this point. But what we did is in a different country, which is not our core market, we've launched an Insurtech. We are learning how to do it, we are training. We are taking the incumbents there. And as soon as we feel that in our home market, there is some disruption coming. We take the people which are ours, we bring them to our market. We use the platforms, and we can be there. But until then, we are actually happy that we are lagging. And you cannot generalize this story, but I think it was very interesting because I think it's arrogant and many other things at the same time to tell someone that in general as a sector, they are lagging because we come back to strategy. There might be some where the lagging is due to a terrible, wrong strategy. But it might also be good strategy, not always to be the first in everything. And you see that for some big IT digital transformations that some companies in my client portfolio, they were better off waiting a bit until the, as we say in German, the children problems of some technologies are taken care. And then start. And they saved a lot of money in the process. Brian Ardinger: A lot of the book you talk about how do you actually measure success and how people are currently measuring digital transformation is not getting the results they want. So, talk through a little bit about either the levers or the ways that you can actually measure if you're making progress.Tim Bottke: So first, I think one thing which was very interesting when researching the topic was that, as I said before, there seems to be a trend that it's not measurable. And you find many quotes saying, no, it cannot be measured. It requires different KPIs, and I strongly believe that that's not true because we do all these things. We still do them for business. Business has some certain rules which end up that at some point in time, It needs to make some profit. At least that's my belief. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I still believe it's all done for some profit. And that basically means whatever you do, if it has a cost and digital transformation has huge costs, okay?It's not like when you really take things seriously, it's not about just saying agile 10 times and then you're done. You need to invest, revamp your whole systems, find or reeducate new people, or reeducate your current ones. Many things. So, it's a heavy investment for every investment a business case can be done.The only difference is that in digital transformation, sometimes there is less certainty about what the KPIs will lead to, but very often people have shied away from doing that at all. In the book, you will see what I've defined as accelerators. So, it's all about the payday. That's what the book title is all about.So, when do you get your money back? And it's not so difficult to, for everything you do into transformation, find the accelerators, which will lead you quicker to your payday. And the often-underestimated accelerators, so the investments in whatever technology, people, consultants, lawyers, cyber, all these things which people tend to forget.And then you can do a business case for yourself, which will never be correct. We'll always be wrong. But I've learned that it's still better compared to just saying digital cannot be measured because at some point in time when such a high share of transformations fails as you probably, there is this number 70% fail.Funny enough, when you research where this number's coming from, it's very often self-referencing. So, someone at some point in time, some researcher asked, and now it's always 70, 75, 80, 85. But anyway, even if it would be 50, it's too much. So, there will always be a point in time when someone will ask, where's all the money gone? That's what the case is needed for. So that's the first part. The business case. Did they need to be measured?The second part is, what value does it generate for your shareholders? And that's what the book is also about. That the internal business case is not directly correlated to the value the shareholders see in how you digitally transform.It's what you say and what you do. And then in some sectors, for some companies it's appreciated. Depending on their profiles and others it's less. And that's the context every company needs to understand when they work on digital transformation. Brian Ardinger: So last topic I want to talk about is, you know, what are some of the maybe technology trends or that you're seeing that will make it easier for companies to maybe adopt digital transformations in the future?Tim Bottke: I think it will be tougher, quite the opposite. Because the, the one thing which really changed compared to IT transformation is that you almost cannot foresee the upcoming technologies fast enough to understand what really will make the difference. And I think a key capability, which should come out of any digital transformation is the capability of the company to whatever you call it, being able to understand it quickly, understand whether it helps to transform.What the accelerators are. We discussed before what the accelerators are. How does it impact the end-to-end journey? And that's a very rare skill because often you see that then companies, and we come back to CEOs and boards who say, I don't care about all this technology. They should, or at least they should establish a capability in their firm, which very quickly understands what is important, what not. Because you could argue that naming a book, digital transformation today is already old fashioned, because in the end its, but even tech transformation, it's, I don't know, innovation based transformation of whatever form it can be biotech, it can be whatever, and companies need to be ready. So no, it's not going to be easier. And whoever is promising I think either have found the holy grail, then we should congregate them or tries to oversimplify.

Rethinking talent in the boardroom

Organisations are facing major challenges. Many boardrooms have not yet caught up with the avalanche of recent and current profound changes, and both boards and members of nomination committees need to think carefully about talent and the C-Suit. It is easy to talk at a high level about moving from a shareholder economy to a stakeholder economy but what does this really mean for the selection and development of the C-Suite?In this podcast, Dr Sabine Dembkowski, Founder and Managing Partner of Better Boards, discusses the implications of major changes on the selection and development of top talent with Professor Joe Fuller. Joe is a Professor at Harvard Business School and co-founder of the Monitor Group, now known as Monitor Deloitte."We've moved away from just looking for executives with deep industry experience"Joe outlines how his recent research highlights that it is no longer safe to assume that leaders with traditional managerial pedigrees will succeed in the C-Suite. While executives with deep industry experience and high-order process management skills are always good candidates, new criteria around social skills have been added to the desired mix. "Boards of directors tend to hire and evaluate in the way they learned over the course of their careers" Joe believes this issue represents a real challenge for boards. Historical criteria looked at the track record, career progress, responsibilities, and business units or companies. However, those measures were flawed. Traditional ways of evaluating people are subject to error - and now evaluating the new skills required is both different and difficult. "To assist management in hiring a new senior executive… broaden the aperture on what they evaluate"Joe explains that, in his opinion, the first thing a board or committee member hiring a new senior executive needs to do is broaden the aperture of evaluation and widen the kind of experiences they want to see represented in a track record.  "The stakes have never been higher, and the punishment never greater for getting it wrong"Joe points out that senior executives must refine their management and/or communication styles for today's social media. Essentially, anything said at any point during their working day may end up on a platform with global reach and almost no barriers to being observed. The stakes have never been higher. "We have to set aside some of our rather, frankly, lazy approaches to evaluating people"Joe believes that boards need to make clear to executive search firms that they seek people with experience managing different constituencies and handling volatile problems successfully, not proof of someone's performance in more traditional measures. "This is a new era that requires new solutions, and old dogs with old tricks is not going to be a sufficient response"Joe also speaks about internal candidates and highlights how succession planning can be tweaked to grow candidates with the skills required. Career planning and career paths for high potential young executives are essential. The three top takeaways from our conversation are:1.      The whole field of human assets is undergoing a radical transformation and the old rules will not suffice. 2.     The paradigms used for advancing executives and candidates for advancement and the types of experiences and competencies they must demonstrate to move forward need to be changed.3.     Companies that are better at cultivating social skills will prosper relative to those that are not.

The Better Boards Podcast Series

CEO appointments are an important responsibility of Boards. Accordingly, Boards need to ensure they have adequate qualified internal and external candidates for successful CEO selection processes. Creating CEO readiness for internal candidates is as important as working with external search advisors.In this podcast, Dr Sabine Dembkowski, Founder and Managing Partner of Better Boards discusses CEO readiness with Dr Wayne Nelson, Senior Partner at Deloitte Consulting and Strategy Consulting Leader Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at Monitor Deloitte. He is also Head and Founding Dean of the Deloitte Executive Leadership Institute. "Nature and nurture both play a role in the development of leaders"Wayne starts by explaining that, of course, both nature and nurture play a role in the development of leaders. Wayne found that roughly 30% of participants are 'accidental CEOs.' These leaders stumbled into the CEO role by being in the right place at the right time, and happen to have the required skills and experiences. These leaders, however, had no plans to become CEO. However, most CEOs intentionally sought out the role. Wayne feels this suggests that leaders can do intentional, deliberate things to increase their readiness and chances of moving into a CEO role.  "The CEO role is a very challenging one that comes with huge personal sacrifices"Wayne suggests that the CEO role often brings isolation and loneliness, and requires a thick skin and an ability to be resilient.   Candidates need to realise this and be sure they really want the job and are willing to make sacrifices. "We're seeing a whole new generation of executives"Wayne explains that company products have well-defined attributes and values, communicated with great care to ensure clarity and consistency. Executives in the market for a CEO role also need to define a brand for themselves - simple, relevant, and authentic. They need to communicate this consistently, over and over again, and new social media channels are ideal for this. "The best CEO hires are fit for circumstance"Wayne explains that 'fit for circumstance' means that the best CEO hires can explicitly connect the company's circumstances with an attractive future vision – and then connect these to their own experiences, capabilities, potential, and motivation. The four key elements defining fit for circumstance are (1) The situation, expectations and vision for the company. (2) The type of leader the company needs. (3) The candidate's capabilities, experiences, and potential. (4) The candidate's motivation and authentic self. The best CEO hires fulfill all four."Board members need to think about what type of leader the company needs explicitly"Wayne has seen that very experienced board members have categories of CEO types in their minds that they can easily match with the current situation of the company. This needs to be discussed early on, however, not in the heat of the moment and not during recruitment when a selection is being made.   He believes that succession planning needs to be done early, and thus for a CEO role, internal candidates should be developed, not necessarily always looking externally via search agencies.The three top takeaways from our conversation are:1.      The best CEO candidates can articulate their "fit for circumstance" and make a real effort to hone their "story."2.     Board members can use the "fit for circumstance" concept to guide their CEO candidate evaluations and selections.3.     Boards benefit from having a broad slate of viable internal and external candidates. It makes sense to build CEO readiness of internal candidates deliberately.

In an in studio recording Becca and I talk about her adventures from quitting her high powered New York strategy consulting job, to becoming sober, moving back home, starting a non-alcholic distilling brand, NKD LDY, and getting engaged.  A great conversation that shows that anything is possible. Becca Gardner, founder and CEO of Alt Distilling and innovator behind NKD LDY, is committed to making lasting changes to the culture of drinking, by creating a safe and emotionally rewarding experience through her non alcoholic spirits and promoting realness with her authentic brand message. Having a previous career in strategy consulting, Becca found herself frequently working while traveling and dining with clients, which led to an alcohol-heavy lifestyle. Struggling with burnout after a decade in the field, Becca took a sabbatical in London where she was romanticized by the accessibility of non alcoholic beverages. Always one to stand up for a cause, she left wanting to make this type of lifestyle choice easily attainable for those in the States, where drinks are often encouraged in both work and social spaces. Becca was inspired to create a brand that reignites the social aspect of drinking without the pressures or induced courage of alcohol. Recognizing that many nondrinkers avoid events simply because of the questioning they'll receive, Becca has created a space where what people drink is not the focus and is, in fact, rather inconsequential. Instead of people hiding behind their glasses, through NKD LDY, Becca has created a culture that encourages bravely owning your own strange, unique, and authentic self by inspiring people to get real, step into their power, and let go of their vice by ordering a drink “naked.” With a Bachelor of Arts degree from Denison University, where she studied anthropology, studio art, and women's studies, Becca has a vast understanding of human behavior. She also studied at New York University at the Leonard N. Stern School of Business. Throughout her career as a strategy consultant, she was in the top 10% of strategy managers at Monitor Deloitte, worked with Fortune 200 clients, and visited Singapore as their chosen representative at a United Nations conference. She's served on many boards for issues related to human trafficking and sexual and domestic violence, with her most current involvement with Kentucky Refugee Ministries. Becca is also a certified yoga teacher who loves to create art in various mediums including design work for NKD LDY, as well as spend time with her screenwriter and film producer fiancé and their parti poodle. -------------------------------------- Sign up here for the EDGE's Weekly Newsletter and get BONUS content.

With so much change happening at such a fast pace, the digital transformation process can feel like it must be extremely far along and, perhaps, near completion. Companies have been moving as speedily as possible to adapt their businesses to the digital realm and, in many cases, to create new digital territories altogether. If digital transformation was a baseball game, it could be easy to assume that the transition is in the latter innings. Rich Nanda, the US Monitor Deloitte Practice Leader at Deloitte Consulting, offers a contrary perspective.Main TakeawaysConsultation with Specificity and a Broad Vision: With the intensity of digital transformation happening across all sectors, consultants must adjust their skillsets. On one hand, they must have thorough domain expertise. Yet, on the other hand, consultants must be able to take a broader view as well in order to best guide their clients in these fast-moving times. Growth Versus Fixed Business Mindset: To be successful, leaders must adopt a growth mindset over a fixed mindset. A fixed mindsight is rigid and sees the world as locked in place. A growth mindset accepts that change is inevitable. With a growth mindset, change is seen as an opportunity rather than a problem.Opportunities for Expansion: Projecting forward, there will be amazing opportunities for expansion. Companies will be in a position for more mergers and acquisitions. Some companies will jump outside their typical lane to pursue more opportunities. Companies not traditionally thought of as intrinsically associated with tech, or software, may find unique opportunities to delve into new digital territories.IT Visionaries is brought to you by the Salesforce Platform - the #1 cloud platform for digital transformation of every experience.

Professor Fuller also talks about what he sees as the biggest challenges facing today's CEO and organizational management and how many of those top requirements for organizational success involve changes to aspects of talent development and sourcing, including contingent work; digitalization and decentralization; diversity and inclusion; globalization and the labor supply chain. He discusses a recent BCG and HBS Future of Work study on the topic of contingent work and discuss how, in the future, more and more organizations will have needs for high-skill contingent talent for business-critical assignments – and how this is shifting the power equation in favor of the supply side of the talent equation. He also provides a look at the higher education sector and discuss the role of credentialization in talent acquisition. Citing his soon-to-be-published research, Professor Fuller talks about the ways AI is poised to improve and expand talent profile of companies in the future – a profile that will begin to also include the contingent worker to a greater degree.

On this week’s show, we spoke with Jafar Owainati, co-founder & COO @ Loopio. In his role, he focuses on operations, finance, and marketing. Before venturing into entrepreneurship, Jafar started his career as a mechanical engineer working on a range of projects, from a multi-billion dollar nickel mine in Madagascar to advising the government of Dubai on how to build green buildings on palm-shaped islands.   Jafar’s passion for business eventually led him to the Kellogg School of Management to pursue his MBA with a concentration in entrepreneurship, marketing, and business strategy. After Kellogg, he joined Monitor Deloitte in Chicago as a Senior Consultant with a focus on marketing and channel sales strategy. While building the Digital Strategy practice within the company’s Innovation Center, Jafar caught the tech bug and, in early 2014, he and his two Co-Founders (Zak and Matt) started Loopio, a SaaS platform that helps enterprises supercharge their response process for RFPs, RFIs, and Security Questionnaires.   On the show, we spoke about:      How he jumped from the world of consulting to tech entrepreneurship and founding Loopio      The importance of the team over the idea      How focusing on the customer helped Loopio scale to 50 employees      Loopio’s strategic planning process and how they conduct monthly offsites   Jafar is a natural entrepreneur and has built a very impressive technology startup, all without funding.

In this episode of the InspireCast, Mukul Ahuja once again becomes the guest host of the show to discuss the 'Retailization in Insurance' movement with Eva Treumuth, customer and marketing strategy leader at Monitor Deloitte. So what do customers want from their insurers? As the very relationship between insurers and customers is changing; today’s consumers have come to expect to get what they want, how and when they want it, and those expectations are spilling into other areas of their life. Savvy insurers have already begun “retailizing” their business, all the better to meet these rising consumer expectations and to get ahead of the competition. This is a must-listen podcast for any CMOs and CIOs seeking to understand why 'retailization' will require insurers and brokers to actively adopt a retailer mindset, perhaps forge new ways of doing business plus the key principles that will allow organizations to design for customer experience and trust first.

The Secrets of FinTech: Jesse McWaters and Rob Galaski, World Economic Forum

If I had to choose just one episode of Barefoot Innovation to introduce listeners to the series, this is it. My guests are Jesse McWaters of the World Economic Forum and Rob Galasky of Monitor Deloitte, who co-led the WEF's landmark research project on financial technology (executive summary here).  Switzerland-based WEF focuses on public/private collaboration and is best known for hosting the annual global forum in Davos. When I first read news accounts of this report, I reached out immediately to Jesse and (new father) Rob to ask them to join our dialogue. It took some time to get together, but we finally met at the WEF offices in New York. It was more than worth the wait. They launched their study of the global evolution of fintech at the Davos meeting in 2014. By the summer of 2015, they had crystallized the keys to understanding it. Their work is built on extensive interviews and on the technique I increasingly see as the key to progress -- convening disparate participants. They held six meetings with traditional financial institutions, disruptive innovators, and regulators in the same room, grappling with the coming change. In their early meetings, the financial industry executives were interested in fintech and wanted to monitor it, but were not worried - Jesse and Rob call them "tepid" about its urgency. By the end, this view had reversed. My guests use words like "bewilderment," "paranoia," "enemies" and "invading the fortress" as they describe the financial industry's rising concern. They also see these concerns starting to give way to hopefulness about the opportunities. The 193-page study has a global scope, emphasizes the developed world, and looks at eleven areas where innovation is driving transformation. What's working? Here are some of the insights Jesse and Rob share in our conversation: While today's banks feel besieged by disruptors on all fronts, the study shows that innovators are actually mainly targeting specific spots where two key factors intersect - that is, where high friction and customer frustration exist in products that are highly profitable. One participant said they are, "skimming the cream." Recognizing these points of vulnerability can guide traditional companies in what to defend and where to allocate capital. The emerging models have certain key attributes -- they are platform-based, modular, data-intensive, and "capital-lite." The disruptors focus on "shadow" or "fringe" areas, avoiding the heavily regulated core world of deposit-taking financial institutions. They are serious about complying with regulations, but strategically choose the rules to which they will subject their businesses. They are using established assets to scale up, a la Uber, rather than investing in a long, expensive process of creating their own products and infrastructures. They are actively partnering with established institutions for this leveraging of both existing assets and infrastructure and also "regulatory permissions." (Interestingly, this is drawing some major investment companies into retail markets for the first time.) They are focused on controlling the customer experience, using their superior platforms and data analytics. A key subset are "mission-oriented" entities creating inclusive and affordable services to consumers and small businesses. Jesse and Rob mentioned Active Hours and LendUp as U.S. examples, in addition to the huge global potential in emerging markets. Advice to industry: Jesse and Rob discuss how all this is impacting the traditional industry, including this advice: Don't count out banks as an "old world industry." Address the twin pressures of having aging legacy operating systems and processes, clashing with the high demands of today's consumers, especially millennials. People increasingly want personalized, bespoke, low-cost services and are ready to trust online providers. Review and clean out the accumulation of old policies and procedures that prevent banks from creating a great customer experience. Don't make the mistake of viewing fintech as a one-year budget issue. Create a new enterprise-wide, multi-year investment model that is not controlled by the current owners of the business line P&L's. Explore merging models for learning, partnering, and "coexistence." Evaluate the wisdom, or folly, of essentially "outsourcing R&D" to the venture capital world until it figures out the winners and losers. Consider that financial institutions may be major players in shaping what will win and what will lose, especially since they have capital. Use their suggestions on how do innovation inside a traditional company. Expect upward age migration of fintech adoption - don't expect to retain even older customers to the end of their lives in old-style products. Watch for big changes in insurance offering options for bespoke, advisory, concierge models and radically new value propositions (they mention Oscar in the U.S. and Vitality in the UK). Understand the likely sequence in which products will be forced to change, and why - they explain this in our discussion Impacts on consumers: Rob and Jesse predict big changes for consumers, including vastly more choice, hugely better customer experience, better pricing, and much better insight into and control over their own financial lives. They also see rising risks and regulatory needs, including that consumers will be harmed by unsuitable, high risk products. Advice for regulators: Jesse and Rob also have insights for and about regulators. Some of the regulators who joined their meetings were among the most thoughtful people they encountered, but they also warn of a very wide delta between the "leaders and laggers" in the regulatory world. They predict likely regulatory arbitrage if that gap does not close quickly. They also emphasize the need for "regulatory sandboxes" (on that point, watch for our upcoming Barefoot Innovation episode on sandbox innovation with Nitish Pandey of BMO Harris). What next? The project plans to leverage its convening power to tackle further priorities. One is exploring the revolutionary potential of block chain technology and distributed ledgers, including and beyond bitcoin. Another is seeking innovation in managing digital identity, including expanded roles for banks. Might our bank someday help us buy a bottle of wine by sending not only the money, but by verifying our age! Enjoy the episode!

Case Interview Preparation & Management Consulting | Strategy | Critical Thinking

Written cases, pioneered by Monitor Deloitte, and now used by all firms are very intimidating. Written cases actually test core prioritization skills much better than verbal cases, since written case interviews can dump tonnes of data on a candidate. The trick to written cases is to have a filtering system to find the data you need from the worthless data, and of course, recognizing that not all the data is useful. Written cases mirror cases done in case-method schools like Harvard. Lots of data is provided in those cases, but not all is useful. Your job is to find the useful data and that means having a framework upfront.
