A talk by Jill Koob, SPHR, SHRM-SCP and Dr. Sandra Steen
Energize HR & Sandra Steen Consulting, LLC
It's been seven years since the #blacklivesmatter hashtag was born. Three words full of potential for progress that offer a bite-sized rallying cry for a gargantuan problem.
Three words born out of the tragic loss of life, over and over again; Three words packed with passion, conviction, purpose and.... for some, polarization.
Whether our leaders are ready for another crisis, or not, we must talk about the Elephant in the room.
Acknowledging racism, clarifying your company's policy, and educating employees that disagree on that company policy is requred if we are to tackle the discord, as it enters the workplace.
Discussion Points:
How might HR prepare managers to compassionately respond to the conflict between the hashtags #AllLivesMatter and #BlackLivesMatter in the workplace?
How might we educate one another on the white vs. black issue, and get a real grip on our biases?
Just as HR had to mindfully respond to the #MeToo movement, HR must lead the way to a conscious awakening of the racism and our cultural discord in the workplace.

How to Get a Job in PR: Understand the Power of ConnectivityShelly Kramer
This presentation was initially developed for the PRSSA organization at the University of Kansas. I presented to Journalism School students about the power of connectivity and how important social networks and meaningful social media participation - and social media marketing - can impact their careers.
We spoke about the importance of taking risks, moving outside your comfort zone and going out on a limb. We discussed the importance of raising your hand, asking for opportunities, planting your flag and saying what you think and not being afraid to share opinions, and how all those things can factor greatly into your ultimate success at finding the perfect job - whether it's in Public Relations, Marketing or some other field.
The presentation also addresses the importance of understanding the web and the importance the Internet plays in business today. That includes having an understanding of and a working knowledge about the importance of things like well-constructed and optimized business websites, search engine optimization, email marketing, mobile marketing, coupon offers and others, and how these things, in conjunction with good public relations efforts is all part of an integrated marketing effort.
The last part of the presentation deals with the importance of personal branding and how things like a Google+ profile, a robust presence on LinkedIn, blogging, commenting on blogs written by others and participating on networks like Twitter, YouTube and others can go a long way toward establishing an online persona that can be a springboard to a job.

Store of the Future, a Playbook for Retail Sponsors and LeadersMike Wittenstein
Doing things the same ways for the same reasons won’t
get retailers ahead, but creating a Store of the Future
initiative will. Instead of letting change happen, retailers
should invoke change on themselves by
purposefully designing their futures—their store of the
future—replete with the detail needed to make their
ideas real. This Storyminers white paper outlines the
characteristics, benefits, and new business capabilities
that creating a Store of the Future Initiative brings.
It also includes a playbook, implementation notes for
sponsors/leaders, and simple ways to get started.
Mike Wittenstein gave a presentation about moving brands to the lower right quadrant, which focuses on providing high customer value at low cost. He explained that brands need to take the customer's point of view, learn what matters to them, and focus processes on designing the total customer experience. Wittenstein also discussed new imperatives for management, including thinking about the customer experience rather than products and deciding based on customer outcomes rather than features. He emphasized that customers only perceive the total experience and dealing with any part of it does not make sense.
The Value of Story: Using a Story's Foundation as a Foundation for BusinessMike Wittenstein
The document discusses the value of using stories in business. It argues that stories are effective communication tools because they engage listeners on an emotional level and convey information in a memorable way. The presentation teaches that businesses should focus on creating experiences for customers and employees and then sharing the stories that emerge from those experiences. It also provides guidance on how to strategically craft stories and leverage them in public relations to align employees with a company's values and vision.

O documento descreve como a Apple cria uma excelente experiência para o cliente através de três segredos: (1) integrar as operações internas e externas de forma estratégica, elegante e rentável; (2) colocar o cliente em primeiro lugar; e (3) reduzir o trabalho para o cliente. Isso resulta em alta satisfação do cliente e desempenho operacional forte para a Apple.
You Had Me At Hello: Secrets of Apple's Customer Experience ExposedMike Wittenstein
Apple makes sure that each positive effect customers perceive front-of-house (FOH) is supported by solid back-of-house (BOH) operations. It’s just like a restaurant where the maitre d’ handles the dining room, wait staff, and experience delivery while the chef takes care of food preparation, kitchen staff, purchasing, etc. Apple integrates Front of House (FOH) and Back of House (BOH) strategically, elegantly, and profitably. (That’s the first secret by the way.)
A Experiência do Cliente: Benefícios. Melhores Práticas. Verdades.Mike Wittenstein
O documento discute os benefícios de se focar na experiência do cliente, melhores práticas para projetar uma boa experiência do cliente e verdades sobre o assunto. As três frases essenciais são: (1) Focar na experiência do cliente pode levar a menores custos, maior satisfação dos clientes e vendas aumentadas; (2) Projetar boa experiência do cliente envolve escutar clientes e empregados, entender os objetivos da empresa e criar uma história envolvente; (3) Quando empresas projetam cada aspecto do negócio para

The document discusses what makes for the best customer experiences and how to design them. It notes that while most companies think they offer great experiences, very few customers actually agree. The key is to design experiences around what customers want most in order to gain a sustainable advantage over competitors. Examples like Apple, Build-A-Bear Workshop, and others illustrate how to put the customer at the center of the design process and empower them to cocreate memorable experiences.

Customer Experience Design Case Studies Soho Hero 2007Mike Wittenstein
Mail and More, a small franchisor of packaging and shipping stores, faced increased competition from large companies entering their market. They enlisted a company to help revamp their brand around the customer experience. After assessing the situation, they found little to differentiate Mail and More and unengaged franchisees. They realized their target customers were former corporate employees seeking both business support and social connections. They developed a new brand, SOHO HERO, focused on the entrepreneurial spirit of small business owners. They designed every aspect of the customer experience to emotionally connect with customers. The rebranding and experience design work increased sales, reduced franchisee onboarding time, and sparked new business concepts.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...ABHILASH DUTTA
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Personal branding
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Personal branding is the process whereby people and their careers are marked as brands.[1] It has been noted that while previous self-help management techniques were about self-improvement, the personal branding concept suggests instead that success comes from self-packaging.[2] The term is thought to have been first used and discussed in an 1997 article by Tom Peters.[3]
Personal branding often involves the application of one's name to various products. For example, celebrity real-estate mogul Donald Trump uses his last name extensively on his buildings and on the products he endorses (e.g., Trump Steaks).

Everything is changing
Things won’t go back to the way they were
We know we have to change
But, we just don’t know what—or how
The one group that does know is our customer! If we listen closely enough and truly hear what their unmet needs are, we’ll have the information we need to retool, repackage, outthink, and outlast. (Survivor ;-)
It’s from this point that you get the best info about what your story should be.
Having a new story doesn't require a new you, just a new way of thinking about you.
What you know, what you are capable of, the way you do things, and how you create value.
People want to know you. A story just makes it easier.
Finding your story isn’t something to fear. It actually sets you free.
Being your story is when this whole personal branding thing
gets to be lots of fun.
There’s one thing to focus on to get this whole process started.
And that’s how you you’re different--and better--than everyone else on the planet.
In some way, you are unique and you are #1 at that kind of uniqueness.
Overview of how these three elements tie together
Your story IS your business
Not just different, better!
Standing out in a commoditized world is a key capability.
Great stories have ‘stiction’.
Here’s one I remember.
Tuna fish or elevator story
Once your story is out there, it’s up to you to control it. Here’s how.
