Some think working remotely is a terrible setting that takes control away and let's employees stay at home and be useless. Others find that remote work increases overall productivity and lowers the need to micromanage.
And both sides might be correct as remote work, like all other structures, work really well for some and make others crazy.
The only thing that we can say for certain is that telecommuting is increasingly popular and there are problems you need to face to make it work.

Q4 often brings a flurry of new business activity, known to ruin many a Christmas holiday for the new business professional. And while all this activity helps to fill the pipeline, the timing is unfortunate because it distracts you from one of the most important things you’ll do all year: your Annual Plan.

It is 30 years in the making, built on science and backed up by the most robust Commercial Plan you have ever seen – investors love this bit ;-)
We call it Concorde because it takes your business supersonic.
So if you are fed up with:
Long boring business plans that none ever looks at and never get implemented,
Wondering how to break down silo working once and for all and transform your culture for the better
And looking for a System that achieves all this and more…
…why not come take a flight on Concorde today?
This document discusses key findings from research into what job candidates want from employers during the hiring process. It finds that candidates highly value salary information, timely communication about application status, and a smooth process from application to job offer. Candidates will form negative views of brands based on poor hiring experiences and be less likely to apply for future roles or recommend the employer. The document advocates that employers reach the right candidates, highlight their benefits, provide excellent candidate experience, and place the right hires before competitors to succeed in hiring.
The document provides tips and guidance for building an effective HR team and processes as a company grows. It discusses:
1) When an HR team becomes important, typically around 30-40 employees, to avoid issues like politics, inconsistent roles and processes, and productivity drops.
2) Action items for getting an HR team organized like setting up HR platforms and defining job roles and an org chart.
3) The importance of quality onboarding for new hires through structured processes, buddy systems, and regular communications to improve retention, satisfaction and performance.

It recommends identifying a "North Star" metric that reflects overall business success, and then determining the 1-3 key drivers of that metric across the company. Regular growth meetings should be held to track progress on experiments and ensure everyone understands how their work impacts the North Star metric. Establishing this process can help accelerate learning and focus the entire company on the most important work.

The Secrets to Scaling Zapier to 500 Employees from Employees Themselves with...saastr
The document contains advice from early employees of Zapier on lessons learned from working at a startup. It includes tips such as creating scrappy solutions, embracing change, focusing on hiring and culture from the start, prioritizing customer understanding, having fun to build team cohesion, establishing clear values and plans, accepting that mistakes will happen, measuring outcomes not just effort, avoiding unclear code ownership, focusing on current problems before future challenges, helping all employees understand their impact, preparing for constant change, learning to delegate as the company grows, avoiding "playing business" until necessary, continuing innovation, and hiring experienced people who remain scrappy.
The document discusses building an inside sales team, including defining the role, recruiting tactics, understanding the sales cycle and key metrics like customer acquisition cost and lifetime value. It notes that 45% of new hires are only fair to marginal performers, and that the top reason for a bad hire is filling a job too quickly. A bad hire can cost a company between $5,000 to $50,000.
This document discusses metrics that matter for startups. It emphasizes that companies should measure customer value delivery, not just revenue. The key aspects are:
- Companies should have a North Star Metric that represents overall customer value delivered and endures over time.
- They should focus on 1-3 Key Drivers that directly impact the North Star Metric. This includes identifying the rate-limiting step.
- Nuance Metrics are also important to watch but not maximize.
- For pre-product-market fit startups, key drivers should focus on fast iterative learning and deepening fit with customers. Retention metrics need to identify the habituation threshold.

This document summarizes a 2-day workshop called "Launch your business in 2-days" that aims to teach entrepreneurs the science of startups and radically improve their odds of success. The workshop covers topics like generating business ideas, building a team, seeking advice, proving customer interest, financial planning, mastering customer acquisition, thinking like an entrepreneur, and proving production capacity. Participants will learn best practices from successful entrepreneurs, avoid common mistakes, conduct customer interviews, and make weeks of progress on their business in the 2 days. The workshop claims to help entrepreneurs start sooner, improve their chances of success, and achieve results like millions in sales or funding.
The document summarizes key learnings from interviews with executives from innovative companies like Google, Philips, and Diageo about how to foster innovation. Some of the main points are: most successful innovations come from exploring small ideas rather than focusing on big ideas; innovative companies encourage innovation from all employees, not just those in certain roles; transformational innovators focus first on creating a great product rather than making a strong business case; innovation takes 3-5 years to gain traction in markets and requires significant time, resources, and determination; and innovative companies make trying new things the default rather than waiting or striving for perfection.

Going Beyond Innovation: How Companies Must Use "Market-Driven" Principles to...CompellingPM
Innovation. Productivity. Quality. Companies understand these as key principles for improving competitiveness and achieving sustainable and profitable growth. Governments also recognize the importance of investing in these principles to make their countries more competitive and to achieve economic growth. Most of the time, investments in innovation, productivity and quality are focused on the products and services and the processes to deliver them. This is a necessary and important investment, but this investment will only achieve a sustainable and desirable result if the central focus is on the market. The key to sustainable competitiveness and growth through innovation, productivity and quality is through a set of "market-driven" principles. Only then can a company (& country) truly succeed.

From Smart Mobile Accessories to the Internet of ThingsTaly Weiss
In the last few months, smartphones have extended the traditional use of communication. Incorporating hardware as well as apps improves the functionality of the device (upgraded photo/video/audio capabilities). Smartphones today have become effective tools for monitoring (identifying locations of objects, keeping track of food preparation, health and fitness measurements, and even substitute expensive medical devices). These devices can now control local systems (temperature, home entertainment devices and transportation) and in the near future will be integrated with multi systems to allow individuals to better manage their life. Consumers already adopt basics behaviors needed for the "Internet of Things"

This document discusses five skills that can be trained to improve innovation: associating, questioning, observing, experimenting, and networking. Associating involves connecting ideas from different fields, questioning means asking questions to understand problems in new ways, observing is carefully watching the world to gain insights, experimenting is constantly learning through new experiences, and networking expands one's knowledge by meeting diverse people. Practicing these skills, such as asking more questions or meeting someone new each week, can help innovators change the status quo through smart risks.
This document summarizes a presentation on strategic innovation. It discusses how current strategy is often too incremental and focused on best practices. Strategic innovation requires a new mindset, focus, and tools. It involves redefining the business definition, market, product, and business model to create new growth. The presentation provides questions to challenge assumptions in each of these areas. It also discusses generating innovative ideas and an organizational context that enables strategic innovation through characteristics like tolerance of risk and mistakes.
Business Innovation Report by TrendsSpotting: Innovation Strategy, Performanc...Taly Weiss
This document provides a summary of a business innovation report that covers various topics related to innovation including definitions of innovation, innovation strategies, measuring innovation performance, and case studies. The report is intended to provide an in-depth understanding of innovation and its link to business success. It introduces definitions of innovation, explores common forms of innovation with examples, and discusses disruptive innovation and innovation strategies. It also looks at rankings of innovative companies, measuring innovation, and concludes with a case study and references.
Innovation requires creativity but has more resources lately. True innovation takes creativity out of the lab and into the world. Creative directors can drive agency innovation by combining their skills with new resources and expertise from other fields. This allows them to generate new, revenue-generating opportunities for clients by simplifying problems, combining unrelated areas, and maximizing people's talents - which sounds a lot like what creative directors already do.
This document discusses creativity and innovation. It argues that creativity involves combining existing ideas to create something new. True innovation requires challenging existing ways of thinking and taking customers' perspectives. Innovation is difficult because companies tend to benchmark each other, leading to similar approaches. The document advocates rethinking how companies are run to foster a culture where new ideas are welcomed, risks are embraced, and failure is accepted as part of the learning process. Speed and action are important for innovation to succeed.
Operational Excellence starts with the right mindsetDaniel Delank
The document discusses the importance of an innovation mindset. It summarizes that most CEOs do not have proper execution plans for digital transformation and believe they have strategies when they may not. It then discusses perspectives from various thought leaders on why an innovation mindset is necessary, including that intelligence can be developed, one must embrace challenges and learn from criticism. Finally, it provides mantras and behaviors for fostering an innovative mindset, such as being customer-centric, open to failure and learning, and challenging assumptions.

Key criteria for different sources of financing like angels and venture capital are also reviewed.
The document provides an overview of ABM maturity curves and metrics. It discusses moving from good to great marketing by progressing along maturity curves for targeting, engaging, activating, and measuring accounts. It emphasizes the importance of focusing on the right accounts and identifying key personas within accounts. The document also shares examples of ABM program metrics from 2018 and 2019 for a company, showing a shift to more personalized outreach and segmented messaging, and an improved ability to track impact metrics.

Kite was founded out of a love for fashion and eyecare, and a desire to redesign the eye care experience. They are seeking a marketing executive to join their startup and be responsible for all local and online marketing efforts including managing social media, events, the website and customer relationships. The ideal candidate will be creative, experienced in marketing, excellent with people, and comfortable with technology. They offer an exciting work environment, autonomy, training, and a salary and bonus package for the right person.
The document discusses strategies for convincing business leaders to adopt conversion rate optimization (CRO). It recommends focusing the discussion on CRO rather than broader sales techniques. Key points include knowing the audience and their decision-making process, addressing common objections by mitigating risks, defining success using relevant metrics, making favorable comparisons to other marketing activities, and addressing the human tendency to fear potential losses. The goal is to demonstrate how CRO can deliver significant returns through testing and continuous improvement.

How can companies boost innovation?
1. How can companies boost
innovation?
Not the way you’d think.
James Janega, jamesjanega@gmail.com
https://jamesjanega.wordpress.com/
2. Can you
learn
innovation?
In a 10 year longitudinal survey of 1000 global companies
that spent the most on R&D, Strategy& found the vast
majority felt they’d learned some important things about
innovation:
• 27%: “We MASTERED THIS.”
• 32% got “MUCH” better after 10 years
• 44% got “better” after 10 years
• 73% found “room to improve,” would…
• Shift R&D mix from “incremental” to “breakthrough”
• Shift product R&D to service R&D
• 6% “got worse”
Signs point to “yes”

3. Can you learn innovation?
Signs point to “yes”
• 27%: “We MASTERED THIS.”
• 32% got “MUCH” better after 10 years
• 44% got “better” after 10 years
• 73% found “room to improve,”
would…
• Shift R&D mix from “incremental” to
“breakthrough”
• Shift product R&D to service R&D
• 6% “got worse”
If so …
… how much better can you get?
Better Much Better Mastery Got Worse

4. What’s the
magic formula
for innovation?
In a 10 year longitudinal survey of 1000 global companies
that spent the most on R&D, Strategy& found the vast
majority felt they’d learned some important things about
innovation:
• Core strategies improve returns
• Align business and innovation strategies
• Key success factors drive results
• Gain insights into customer needs
• Stated
• Unstated
It’s not magic. But it isn’t chance,
either.

5. What’s the
magic formula
for innovation?
Build services out of products. Go
big.
James Janega, jamesjanega@gmail.com
https://jamesjanega.wordpress.com/
6. What DOESN’T
work?
Strategy& ran 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations on the 1000
R&D companies surveyed over 10 years, and found:
• R&D spend is not correlated to sustained financial
success
• R&D spend is not correlated to sales growth
• R&D spend is not correlated to gross profit
• R&D spend is not correlated to enterprise profit
• R&D spend is not correlated to market cap value
• R&D spend is not correlated to shareholder return
Money is not enough.
James Janega, jamesjanega@gmail.com
https://jamesjanega.wordpress.com/
7. What DOESN’T
work?
R&D spend as the sole thrust for
innovation DOESN’T work. In fact,
the MORE companies spent that
way, the WORSE they fared.
James Janega, jamesjanega@gmail.com
https://jamesjanega.wordpress.com/
8. How did top
performers
raise their
game?
The solution involved five key steps taken simultaneously:
• Align the portfolio of innovation investments with
customer needs and wants
• Develop and retain people with the right technical
knowledge
• Understand new product- and service-related
technology and trends
• Align innovative leaders with business leaders
• Pursue lean product/service development
By focusing on new capabilities
and processes.

mean for managers?
