A collection of tactics is not a strategy, nor is a financial forecast or a budget. A strategy defines who you serve, what you do, how you do it, and how you do it differently. And a strategy begins with a clear set of goals. In this session, learn how Collective 54 member Jason Mills, Director of Engineering at TribalScale, and his team, adopted a formal goal-setting methodology, called OKRs, to get focused on what matters most.  https://www.collective54.com

In Part II of this exciting chat through the trends and digital transformation taking shape to build industry 4.0, host Daniel J. Litwin continues the conversation with CEO of TribalScale, Sheetal Jaitly. As discussed in Part I, there are evolutions occurring to the foundations of technologies which help move the entire industry into digital landscape 4.0. 5G developments by Nokia out of Europe, Jaitly mentioned, have been successfully able to converge multiple radio channels. This test means that shortly this technology will have great effects on different industries, including some disruptions. Self-driving cars, for example, will need advancements in 5G and edge to really take shape. However, the infrastructure for such new technology will have to be updated accordingly. This means more bandwidth is needed. Jaitly was frank, “Let's all admit that there's going to be a very large bandwidth issue as more and more things are being connected.” The more the private sector vocalizes this need, the better the chances are this problem will be addressed quickly. With people more used to being digitally connected than ever before, preparing for the future also means preparing the infrastructure for many types of use-cases. Jaitly observed the market, “I honestly believe in the innovation of not only the enterprise but of start-ups that we haven't even been able to see the use-cases of what that can do for the everyday person.”Creating actionable steps to help empower future connections is the first part of many in building industry 4.0, but Jaitly is sure it will happen. Taking a look at individual business needs, Jaitly stated that everyone should be thinking about one question moving into the future, “What does a truly connected city mean for its citizens and for the world?”

As new iterations of the digital environment come into play, it's especially important to know and understand the trends helping to shape them. Host Daniel J. Litwin invited guest Sheetal Jaitly, CEO of TribalScale, to the show to talk about the trends shaping industry 4.0 and the future of telecommunications. Edge computing and 5G are two big-named technologies taking shape to prepare for the future digital environment. These technologies are evolving in big ways, shaped by human needs and wants. And with public calls for investment in edge computing becoming increasingly commonplace, these two technologies are set to make vast improvements to telecommunications. Jaitly observed that business leaders are starting to realize the need to prepare for the future and leverage technology to build a personalized solution. He said, “The things that we thought were impossible are now being shown to us that they can be possible. So, the right leaders are demanding, ‘Hey, what can I do?'”Enterprises across a large range of topics are engaging with technology in new ways. Several high-profile use-cases for technology like 5G and blockchain – namely cryptocurrency success, among others – have proved and validated ROI success. Jaitly noted that if these technologies were to be implemented – even in a minimal way – to current issues like the supply chain, it would likely help save billions. He excited, “...I think a lot of the start-ups and a lot of the enterprises out there, are really trying to figure out ‘How can we solve the problems of the future?'”With a need for new technologies in place, only time will tell how and when they will be implemented.

This weeks guest has a bio that's so impressive, and she continues to dazzle - it's Kirstine Stewart! If her name sounds familiar it might be because she is a high profile media executive and author of the bestselling book: Our Turn.  She is currently the Head of Shaping the Future of Media at the World Economic Forum. She was formerly the Head of English language services at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Vice-President of Media at Twitter, and President and Chief Revenue Officer of TribalScale...to name a few.Kirstine is married to the Honourable Zaib Shaikh, the former star of Little Mosque on the Prairie, and the current consul general of Canada in Los Angeles.At hear 17:35 Kirstine Stewart share a story about the right way to handle a sales deal."One of my earliest sales opportunities was to sell The Raccoons to Saudi Arabian television. They were willing to buy it site unseen, the BBC had just bought it, France 2 had just bought it, it was selling wildly globally, and it's a kids show - so should be relatively safe. But when I warned them that, ya know, given that they're a Muslim country, and that some of the main characters were pigs.... that they shouldn't be buying the same site unseen. That might want to consider that before doing so. I could have in that pitch made that sale immediately, but it was not the right deal to close. They said thank you very much, they did not buy the show, they came back later and bought a whole lotta other content afterwards anyways. So understanding what you client or audience needs is so important, and the authenticity means you're giving them what they need and what they want - and exactly that."Check out Kirstine Stewart's book! - Our TurnCheck out the book! - Fearless: Girls with Dreams, Women with VisionThe Fearless Women Podcastfearlesswomenpodcast@gmail.comThe Beacon AgencyThe World Economic ForumSponsors:BDCLockheed MartinExport Development Canada
