1. What Initiatives and idea did you choose and why How did you f.docxjeremylockett77
1. What Initiatives and idea did you choose and why? How did you feel about choosing external versus internal initiatives? (Hint: you should analyse and evaluate the rationales for your decisions)
I have chosen 3 different initiatives based on the availability of budget and time I have and based on external and internal problems. The first initiative is “A boot camp characterized by an internal team form different departments” this will take about 3 weeks and 15,000 to achieve the intended purpose. This initiative was the best choose for me I felt that to gather the best employees from the company and try to come up with best solution was the most relevant initiative. The firm allocated a budget making it the most expensive initiative carried out and a reward price was awarded to the top three most creative ideas from the team. Second in order was “Post questions to The Citizen Sun social media followers “ I chose this initiative a part of solving a problem is to ask the customers what they needs and what they want to improved, by doing this we could solve the main issues like if we know what the costumers want we can work on it and as a result we will have new customers and we will not lose our old customers. The second reason of choosing this initiative is to get close to the customers who are using digital and print news. As showing in the background of the citizen Sun company 32% of the customers are using digital and print news which are high number who could help to get some relevant ideas to improve the issue of web traffic. The third initiative is “Run a special project with leading advertisers” I felt the to come up with special project and work with the advertiser’s leader would solve the problem because the issue is all about ads revenue and when you work with the specialist of this problem they could figure out a new idea or a new innovation to get out of this problem.
As a product manager, I also analysed the overall impact of each initiative to the performance of the firm and came up with a well consulted decision which was to go with an idea in initiative one as follows. The final idea I chose was creating an innovative channel from a reputable video sharing website provided video editorials which helped capture the tech savvy audience. Combines trust-based sharing and collaborations with high level of expertise. This idea is effective as it has a manageable risk level and a cost that is relatively medium and can be incorporated into the business. The implementation of the idea used up only 72% of the budget. It is not time consuming. In order to incorporate this idea, different target audience, different approaches and innovations were effectively put into place.
2. How much influence did the original mandate have on your strategy and selection of initiatives and ideas? (Hint: You may use your original mandate to justify your decisions and discuss why you have chosen that particular initiatives and idea for solving the p ...

The Nominet Trust uses technology to tackle social challenges through social investments and grants of £5 million per year. It aims to demonstrate how digital technology can redesign solutions to persistent social problems. Some of its grantees include Podnosh, which captures voices of disconnected people for policymakers, and Memory Box, which helps those with dementia through digital memories.

- Organizations are increasingly using collaborative innovation platforms to engage employees in idea generation and problem solving across divisions. These platforms allow companies to launch idea campaigns, improve ideas, and advance the most promising ideas into implementation projects.
- Key considerations for collaborative innovation include engaging diverse groups of employees, increasing visibility of the innovation pipeline, and combining top-down business needs with bottom-up employee ideas. This helps organizations innovate faster and across more topics while ensuring alignment with business goals.
- Managing collaborative innovation for distributed teams requires connecting all employees through a common platform to facilitate centralized and localized idea collection and evaluation. This gives distant teams a voice while leveraging their diverse knowledge.
There’s a reason offices spaces are becoming more "open" these days. Siloed departments are a thing of the past. If your marketing department and sales department aren’t talking to each other and collaborating, you’re doing something wrong. If you don’t have social informing every department, you’re going to be hard-pressed to see significant ROI from social, or improve the customer experience. The very nature of social media requires that it crosses boundaries and informs all campaigns and marketing efforts and customer touchpoints. But it’s difficult to make that happen in your company simply by taking down cubicle walls. You must also set up infrastructure within your organization that allows for convenient communication, and you must invest in the right tools and platforms that are flexible enough to move with your prospect and customer initiatives instead of rigidly defining them.
In this panel, we’ll gather experts to discuss:
-Why integrated social is the only way to go if you’re going to become a social business
-How to measure social ROI when it encompasses many departments and strategies
-Tools and platforms that can help your organization stay socially agile
-How a thorough dedication to social across your organization can help you scale and grow at a manageable rate
-The kind of internal methodology needed to integrate a social-centric approach
