Positive Disruption: A Case-Study for Embracing Change #mcn2012dsrptCharlotte Sexton
This paper provides a real-world example of how strategic planning can have a radical impact on the working practice of a cultural organisation. It explores the ways that the National Gallery, London has had to change long established, and deep-routed thinking in order to successfully deliver its vision for a new film Channel. Encompassing everything from its overhaul of commissioning and decision-making mechanisms through to a new production model for film content. By sharing our experiences as we move towards a new and evolving digital future, the paper will offer valuable insights into the challenges of affecting positive change.
Following the development of a Digital Engagement Strategy at the National Gallery, London, the paper explores the significant impact that implementing the strategy has begun to have on the organisation as a whole. The need to change long established working methods in order to be compatible with the demands of a new digital platform has required seismic shifts in both our thinking and our practice.
Focusing on the development of a new, online film Channel the paper explores how the Gallery has had to radically change its approach to the ways it makes decisions, develops ideas around content, and commissions and produces new films. By actively choosing not to maintain the status quo new ways of working have been needed, and the impact on internal processes and established structured and has been extensive.
The paper provides insights into the Gallery’s rationale; an overview of where we are in the process and the practical steps we have taken to affect change. By reflecting on the progress to date and the valuable lessons learned this project clearly demonstrates the power that a digital initiative can have on the internal culture of an organisation when it is framed within a wider, long-term strategic plan.

Cross-Functional Teams: A Product Manager's NirvanaMovel
Cross-functional teams solve challenging problems faster by employing multi-disciplinary approach and delivering business value early and often. The fact that multi-disciplinary team members work on the same problem at the same time brings a number of advantages, of which speed of delivery and product quality are most important. The ability to listen and consider other viewpoints is a key to understanding tough problems and when applied properly, the results can be spectacular!
In this 60-minute session, we’re going to explore the benefits of cross-functional teams and look at how Product Managers can employ cross-functional teams to drive business value. We will look at key aspects of successful cross-functional teams such as:
How cross-functional teams maximize business value
* Alignment of business goals and return on investment
* How to assemble a cross-functional team
* Technology and the stack – no need to be an expert, but an understanding of the stack can help balance the business with the technical stories
* Driving user experience – here again, the PM is not a UI/UX designer, but someone who has the final say of the overall direction or “feel” of the product
* Diving the work among the x-functional team
* Epic and story definition when working with cross-functional teams
* Tracking progress
* How to prioritize features based on a technology stack
We’re going to look at ways to recruit and retain cross-functional talent and some of the organizational challenges that can arise as a result of this new team structure.
The audience of product managers, product owners, executives, technical managers and recruiting managers will learn what makes cross-functional teams successful, look at industry best practices and apply these strategies in their own organizations.
What is this mysterious thing called Product strategy? How do we know if we have a sound strategy, are aligning the company behind it, and actually executing on it? Learn from several world class companies and products, and from the people behind it.
What exactly does a consultant at McKinsey do?Asen Gyczew
If you want to join consulting, find a work in McKinsey, BCG, Bain or other top consulting firms then you most likely wonder what consultants do in practice. In this presentation I will briefly try to summarize it.
The work you do depends on your position at a consulting firm:
1. Business Analyst – is the entry position in most consulting firm. Here you do a lot of research for specific projects or business development. You are also responsible for delivering most of the analysis that end up in the deliverables (presentation) along with accompanying slides. The workload is huge. You are not efficient as the rest of the team so you end-up working 12-15 hours 6-7 days a week. On average you stay on this position 2-3 years.
2. Associate / Senior Consultant. This guys are extremely experience so most of the things they can do independently. The not only perform part of analyses during the project but they also do a lot of project management. Typically 1 Associate would supervise 1-3 business analysts. On many occasions you start interacting with the Customer – Directors, VPs, C-level. You gradually are being prepared to manage project and sell them. You spend on this position 2-3 years
3. Engagement Manager / Project Manager. On this position you have to deliver the project. You do hardly any analytical work yet you have to check the work of BAs and Associates. On top of that you will manage at least to some extent the relationship with the customers.
4. Associate Principle / Partner / Director. On this position you are the sales man. You have to generate demand for the services, convince potential customers to pay your high fees and also to supervise the delivery of some projects. On this position you are constantly on meetings, phone calls, traveling from one city to another, from project to another. Most of the days you network and talk to CEOs, COOs, Board Members, PE Partners and others. You still have to bring a lot in revenues to stay in the firm. In some cases you supervise also part of the projects (at least on paper) and be the face for specific area or industry.

Bare outline - Exercises in PowerPoint Style #1timiti
This PowerPoint deck is the first in a collection. Each deck in this collection models a different communication style. Some models focus on visual display, others strictly on organizing information.
This deck uses the “Bare Outline” style. Although this style is typically a very poor choice as a communication tool, it can be helpful to authors trying to organize thoughts for themselves.
In Exercises In PowerPoint Style, I use this outline as the raw material for all the other models in the series.
This collection is inspired by Exercises In Style, the classic book by Raymond Queneau. In Exercise In Style, Queneau retells the same very simple story 99 times in 99 different styles.
I plan to add to this collection over time, beginning with potentially useful styles, and later modelling common design errors.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.
Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
