According to Gartner, 70% of social implementations fail because they lack a business purpose. When it comes to harnessing the power of social software, a focus on business value is required. This whitepaper defines a strategic framework for gaining business value from social software. It outlines six successful rollout strategies. Each of the six approaches delivers different business results, and has a different level of risk. And most importantly, each has different requirements to succeed. To be successful with social software, you need to choose the rollout strategy that is best for your organization, and understand its requirements for success.
In the spring of 2018, I contracted with Huron Consulting in Chicago's West Loop to help update hundreds of slides and dozens of decks to their newly updated brand standards. I was supplied out-of-date decks and new brand templates. This presentation is one of the results, helping Huron communicate to prospective clients.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Dynamic Benchmarking™
Dynamic Benchmarking is the continuous and
productive study of business performance
relative to peers
2. What is Stack-up™?
Stack-up™ is an online benchmarking service that provides real-time performance
comparisons of financial, operational, procedural and best practice metrics. It is
currently offered to two industries
• Stack-up for professional associations builds a central source of industry data
while helping member businesses identify areas for incremental revenue, cost
savings, service improvements and more.
•Stack-up for franchise systems offers franchisees and franchisors insight on
financial, operational and key performance data points through dynamic peer
comparisons and can be integral part of the franchise recipe for success.
Each client solution is customized with unique metrics,
filters, reports and branding.

4. The Development Process
• We consult with you to develop the metrics, filters, reports and KPIs that
are specific to your franchise system
• We can provide data integration services for automatically populating
metrics
• We design the platform to be fully branded for your system
• We provide product launch training to both the franchisor and franchisees
and offer on-going training as needed
5. The Franchisee Experience
• Franchisees log into the franchise system branded website using a unique
user name and password. The web-based platform is secured with state
of the art firewalls and data encryption. All data is password protected to
ensure anonymity.
• If data is not completely supplied by the franchisor, the franchisee may
answer questions on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.
• Franchisees compare their business to their franchise system peers on
every metric. All comparisons include the specific franchisee data point
compared to aggregated data of other franchisees in percentile format.
• Using filtering, franchisees dynamically select peer groups using profile
and attribute based selections such as years in business, location, revenue
for more relevant comparisons.
• Franchisor defined PowerPoint reports display key performance indicators
in graphical format for additional comparative insight.

groups on the fly and
compare yourself to a subset
of your peers.
Filter settings can be saved
for future use by designating
them a “Favorite”.
A message will indicate the
number of companies that
match your selected criteria.
If a franchisee “drills down”
too far, there will be a
message indicating that
there are not enough
companies to display results.
This protects the anonymity
of the other businesses.
