1. Visualization has become an essential skill for managers as data volumes have increased and visualization helps make sense of complex data patterns.
2. There are four types of visualizations - idea illustrations for complex concepts, idea generation for brainstorming, everyday data visualization for presentations, and visual discovery for exploring and confirming hypotheses in data.
3. Effective visualization requires understanding its purpose as either conceptual, data-driven, declarative, or exploratory and choosing the appropriate type and tools to meet objectives.
Business Process Reengineering with Agility BPMChuck Snyder
Process reengineering is the analysis and redesign of workflows within and between organizations to achieve dramatic improvements in critical performance measures like cost, quality, and speed.

M&A success: Using an integration playbook to make your deal workGrant Thornton LLP
The document discusses how using an integration playbook can help mergers and acquisitions succeed where often they fail. It notes that only about 50% of M&A deals achieve their financial goals. An integration playbook establishes a repeatable process for integrating acquisitions based on past lessons learned. It identifies key risks to address such as retaining employees, aligning cultures, and realizing synergies. Having an experienced leader execute the playbook with input from past deals can help mergers integrate functions smoothly and achieve their strategic objectives.
Human Sigma Made In France, The Communication Zone™& Holacracy™Simon Penny
Simon Penny was recently laid off from his role at Hertz Europe directing a customer experience program that was postponed due to the economic crisis. He has since developed a new concept called "Human Sigma Made in France" to continue pursuing the customer experience vision. The concept overlays Lean & Six Sigma processes onto human systems using consistent methods to integrate and monitor the employee-customer experience. It utilizes a new operating system called Holacracy to manage and improve the experience through an engaging story. Penny aims to present the concept proudly to Hertz and satisfy their goals of becoming a top employer by fostering employee engagement and satisfaction.

It provides examples and mechanisms used by top companies to demonstrate these attributes.
Strategic Design Management (Evolution of Design in Skoda Auto)Kapil Rajput
Designing has huge importance in today’s scenario. Branding is important tool which decide success of any enterprise, if it is not done with proper care and planning. In a highly customized marketplace, differentiation - how one product stands out from a similar product or service allows customers to make a distinction between competing services. Different organizations will often choose to focus their offers on distinctive qualities of brand attributes
An introduction to agile business analysisDennis Stevens
This document introduces several agile business analysis techniques for deciding what to build:
1. The Business Value Goal Model makes business value assumptions explicit by modeling goals, objectives, and focus areas.
2. The Customer Value Profile makes explicit what matters most to end users and customers through a customer experience lifecycle map.
3. The Capability Model focuses efforts by prioritizing capabilities according to business value, performance gaps, and change effort.
4. The A3 problem-solving tool provides clarity of purpose by prioritizing initiatives for delivering value and maximizing unfinished work.
An Evolving Career in Innovation Management Steven Palmer
Over the last decade, businesses within the United States have seen an incredible surge in the demand for Innovative capabilities. But how do you develop the skills necessary to drive new ideas? We exam that question through the lens of the Project Manager in a speech originally presented at PMI Honolulu.
This document summarizes key aspects of mobilizing an organization for digital transformation discussed in Chapter 11 of the book "Leading Digital".
The three main aspects discussed are: 1) Signaling the organization effectively about the benefits of transformation, 2) Earning the right to engage employees by becoming role models and finding quick wins, and 3) Setting new behaviors in the organization by making visible changes to work practices, encouraging adoption of new technologies, learning from failures, and institutionalizing new work practices.
Specific strategies mentioned include using all communication channels to signal changes, designing implementation plans involving key people, identifying early adopters, and making decisions based on data and focusing on customer needs to change behaviors in a sustainable way.
For successful innovation its important to first identify opportunities to innovate. If that's not done properly, whatever efforts one might put will not yield any results. The presentation gives insight into how to find innovation opportunities at customer interface and across the value chain.

The document discusses the importance of benefits management for organizations and outlines best practices for developing business cases, measuring benefits, and ensuring benefits are realized. It notes that only 29% of projects are successful, highlighting the need for a benefits-led approach to improve outcomes. A key message is that benefits realization requires active management like any other business process.
Decision-making poker is a tool for portfolio management that uses a scoring model to capture the collective intelligence of multiple perspectives on potential projects. It involves dividing participants into small groups to discuss and score one-page stories for various projects based on key factors like strategic alignment, team energy, customer value, and assumptions. The groups then discuss their scores and priorities to generate an agreed-upon ranked list. This list provides input into the actual project execution order. By involving employees in scoring and discussion, decision-making poker aims to improve strategic alignment, energize participants, and speed up decision-making and innovation diffusion.
The document discusses the Strategy Wall, which is described as the heart of communication and collaboration in an organization. It provides transparency around strategic planning and allows employees to be involved. Various elements that could be included on a Strategy Wall are described, such as a portfolio roadmap, portfolio investment items (epics), and financial impact measures. The goal of the Strategy Wall is to align employees with the company's strategic vision and goals.
Architects of the new era often struggle with increased span of control, business focus and strategic responsibilities in the organization. The IT architecture discipline in 2013 is facing completely new set of challenge than what it used to address couple of years ago: architects are now focusing on how to help business units to respond in a way that creates business agility, drives better, faster and cheaper production (or delivery), and flows value in rapid cycles, while optimizing the strategy along the way. History of traditional IT Architecture is becoming legend, legend is turning into a myth; this session will help architects to transform so they maintain or increase their relevance in the modern industrialized IT-as-a-service world.
This document discusses experience design and design thinking. It begins with an overview of the emergence of the experience economy and how it is changing business. It then discusses some key traits of design thinking and its implications. The document outlines aspects of designing experiences, including staging, backstaging, and the anatomy of experience design. It provides examples of experience design at MindTree, focusing on front staging and back staging, thinking of users as people, tasks as activities, and context. The document emphasizes thinking of offerings as experiences and discusses how this could change MindTree's approach.
In this presentation, we will discuss in details about enterprise analysis, its process and related activities. We will also talk about strategic planning in details, role of business analyst and knowledge required to develop business architecture.

The document discusses introducing a new business model and portfolio anatomy tool for a struggling surfing brand. It proposes focusing the brand exclusively on surfers by offering a board shipping service and renting dynamic warehouse space. A portfolio anatomy would help visualize the relationships between projects like transitioning suppliers, integrating warehouses, launching new services and IT system updates needed to implement the changes. Breaking dependencies and adopting shorter iteration cycles could help explore opportunities and adapt the portfolio to improve flexibility.
BA and Beyond 19 - Jonas Van Poucke - We stopped doing projectsBA and Beyond
Since the 50's people have used projects as a way to fund and organize software development. Teams are formed to work on temporary, development-focused projects which are approved though some sort of business case. The entire focus is on output: getting the project done in scope, in time and on budget. The rare project that meets these constraints can however still produce a crappy product: it does not achieve the necessary outcome (benefits to the user).
This is different with a product mindset. The focus is not on the output (getting features out), but on achieving the best possible outcome for the end user. A product mindset focuses on detecting and solving problems, and adapting when new ones emerge. Teams are given problems to solve instead of a list of solutions to implement. Product teams focus on maximizing customer value.
In this talk, I explain why we favor products over projects and delve deeper into the benefits and challenges of a product mindset.
Our traditional approach to the design of policy, systems, services, environments, and products isn’t going to serve us well in the 21st Century. As a result we are going to have to evolve the practice of design to shape behavior for a preferable future. Our proposal is that ‘shaping’ behavior becomes the new function of design in the 21st Century. By defining ‘preferable futures’ as the outcome of our work we are forced to consider the longitudinal impacts of our work socially, culturally, ethically and environmentally.

How to Disrupt Digital Product Cultures by LearnVest VP of ProductProduct School
A big part of product management success is bringing various cultures together from people, process, and innovation. Vivek Bedi from LearnVest hosted the product and technology digital teams from Northwestern Mutual and LearnVest as they discussed over the past two years how they have brought two cultures together to come up with a bold, brave, yet balanced "third" culture.
The new culture is one of taking risks, being ok with failing, and focused on innovation while keeping focus on being at the center of clients' financial lives.
Digital tools will revolutionize business analysis and research for consultants. Big data is increasing rapidly, making it difficult to manage all available information. However, digital tools like intelligent virtual assistants can help filter and categorize real-time updates. Credible public and on-demand sources as well as internal digital databases will make activities less time-consuming, more accurate, and provide more in-depth insights. As a result, analytical and research skills will be disrupted by digital tools to provide data in a shorter period of time. Consultants must implement state-of-the-art research techniques to keep up with fast-paced projects and remain competitive against new entrants in the industry.

From Concept to reality : Implementing Lean Managements DMAIC Methodology for...Rokibul Hasan
The Ready-Made Garments (RMG) industry in Bangladesh is a cornerstone of the economy, but increasing costs and stagnant productivity pose significant challenges to profitability. This study explores the implementation of Lean Management in the Sampling Section of RMG factories to enhance productivity. Drawing from a comprehensive literature review, theoretical framework, and action research methodology, the study identifies key areas for improvement and proposes solutions.
Through the DMAIC approach (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control), the research identifies low productivity as the primary problem in the Sampling Section, with a PPH (Productivity per head) of only 4.0. Using Lean Management techniques such as 5S, Standardized work, PDCA/Kaizen, KANBAN, and Quick Changeover, the study addresses issues such as pre and post Quick Changeover (QCO) time, improper line balancing, and sudden plan changes.
The research employs regression analysis to test hypotheses, revealing a significant correlation between reducing QCO time and increasing productivity. With a regression equation of Y = -0.000501X + 6.72 and an R-squared value of 0.98, the study demonstrates a strong relationship between the independent variables (QCO downtime and improper line balancing downtime) and the dependent variable (productivity per head).
The findings suggest that by implementing Lean Management practices and addressing key productivity inhibitors, RMG factories can achieve substantial improvements in efficiency and profitability. The study provides valuable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers seeking to enhance productivity in the RMG industry and similar manufacturing sectors.

Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.

m249-saw PMI To familiarize the soldier with the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon ...LinghuaKong2
M249 Saw marksman PMIThe Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW), or 5.56mm M249 is an individually portable, gas operated, magazine or disintegrating metallic link-belt fed, light machine gun with fixed headspace and quick change barrel feature. The M249 engages point targets out to 800 meters, firing the improved NATO standard 5.56mm cartridge.The SAW forms the basis of firepower for the fire team. The gunner has the option of using 30-round M16 magazines or linked ammunition from pre-loaded 200-round plastic magazines. The gunner's basic load is 600 rounds of linked ammunition.The SAW was developed through an initially Army-led research and development effort and eventually a Joint NDO program in the late 1970s/early 1980s to restore sustained and accurate automatic weapons fire to the fire team and squad. When actually fielded in the mid-1980s, the SAW was issued as a one-for-one replacement for the designated "automatic rifle" (M16A1) in the Fire Team. In this regard, the SAW filled the void created by the retirement of the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) during the 1950s because interim automatic weapons (e.g. M-14E2/M16A1) had failed as viable "base of fire" weapons.
Early in the SAW's fielding, the Army identified the need for a Product Improvement Program (PIP) to enhance the weapon. This effort resulted in a "PIP kit" which modifies the barrel, handguard, stock, pistol grip, buffer, and sights.
The M249 machine gun is an ideal complementary weapon system for the infantry squad platoon. It is light enough to be carried and operated by one man, and can be fired from the hip in an assault, even when loaded with a 200-round ammunition box. The barrel change facility ensures that it can continue to fire for long periods. The US Army has conducted strenuous trials on the M249 MG, showing that this weapon has a reliability factor that is well above that of most other small arms weapon systems. Today, the US Army and Marine Corps utilize the license-produced M249 SAW.
This presentation, "The Morale Killers: 9 Ways Managers Unintentionally Demotivate Employees (and How to Fix It)," is a deep dive into the critical factors that can negatively impact employee morale and engagement.

Many companies have perceived CRM that accompanied by numerous
uncoordinated initiatives as a technological solution for problems in
individual areas. However, CRM should be considered as a strategy when
a company decides to implement it due to its humanitarian, technological
and process-related effects (Mendoza et al., 2007, p. 913). CRM is
evolving today as it should be seen as a strategy for maintaining a longterm relationship with customers.
A CRM business strategy includes the internet with the marketing,
sales, operations, customer services, human resources, R&D, finance, and
information technology departments to achieve the company’s purpose and
maximize the profitability of customer interactions (Chen and Popovich,
2003, p. 673).
After Corona Virus Disease-2019/Covid-19 (Coronavirus) first
appeared in Wuhan, China towards the end of 2019, its effects began to
be felt clearly all over the world. If the Coronavirus crisis is not managed
properly in business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer
(B2C) sectors, it can have serious negative consequences. In this crisis,
companies can typically face significant losses in their sales performance,
existing customers and customer satisfaction, interruptions in operations
and accordingly bankruptcy

Introduction of Agile IT and Business Transformation into XYZ Bank
Your Task
You are part or the advisory group which is providing professional internal support to the steering
committee. The steering committee needs additional information to support their decision-making
process. The Advisory Group has to provide Quick Written Feedback about the introduction of Agile
practice into First Home Buyers Mortgage Product – My Own Home. Choose one – the most likely
scenario. You have 10 minutes of gross time including internal team introduction.
Please use the different sources of information available including:
- Information previously provided visually and orally in the presentation.
- This document.
- The Internet (you can use your mobile phone).
- Your previous experience and professional knowledge.
- Please state in the case that you need to use relevant assumptions.
You have to present the summary of your results in 5 minutes presentation to other groups.
1. Situation, Strategic Alignment and Stakeholder Management
XYZ bank would like to Introduce an Agile initiative into their first home buyers mortgage product –
My Own Home. Introducing the Agile initiative into important business segments is a challenge for an
agile evangelist and executive team in every organisation which would like to use this as a flagship
project and increase the level of agile practices throughout all business segments.
The executive team recently recognised additional opportunities in data as additional valuable
corporate assets. Based on an internal survey including the whole leadership team (management,
senior management and executive team), their latest view is as follows:
▪ 33% believe they measure the benefits of each type of information asset.
▪ 24% see that the bank quantifies the financial value of bank information assets.
▪ 22% believe that bank information is well catalogued (inventoried) and defined.
▪ 11% believe that the bank does not regard information as a kind of asset.
▪ 10% know that the bank group monetize information asset by bartering them with
professional association and data pooling scheme.
2. 2. Agile Business Initiatives, Digital Transformation and Change Management
Agile was born with 2001 “Agile Manifesto” which linked lean business techniques, Kaizen (constant
improvement), and the Six Sigma concepts. It started to spread in IT and in particular; the software
development industry. Agile process management with sprints ranging from 4 weeks to as short as 1
week became popular alternatives in comparison to traditional software development life cycles
which take months or quarters to produce a new iteration of the next version of the software product.
Digital transformation has a strong influence on the majority of other industries, and agile process
management became feasible as an industry agnostic approach. Companies started to introduce
pieces of agile principles across all business functions.
The bank initially started to use agile in software development for mobile devices. Based on their good
experience, they introduced agile practice into additional parts of IT software development, but the
core systems still use waterfall methodology.
3. Target Product: First Home Buyers Mortgage Product – ‘My Own Home.'
The bank would like to start an agile business initiative in the home loan mortgage segment. We
recently reported the decrease of the first home buyers shares in the total number of mortgages. We
have to perform additional analysis, why the independent mortgage brokerage is acquiring a share of
the subsidiary mortgage brokage subsidiary, which is part of the Group. We would like to combine
agile in software development and agile business initiatives.
4. Challenges by Business Functions
Digital marketing is overtaking advertising in traditional media, as it is more efficient and uses
targeting advertisements. The bank realised the internet banking doesn’t have proper UX design. They
didn’t anticipate the high growth of access from mobile devices. The bank is selling through 4 major
channels: digital channels, branches, mortgage broker subsidiary and partnered mortgage brokers. In
the sales business function, the plan is to decrease response time to clients enquiries, improve the
quality of responses and decrease sales cycles through all points of sale. Operations become more
lean and agile with better operational support as a result of process improvements and the
introduction of complex data science tools as part of the ordinary day to day business activities.
Instead of annual performance reviews and payments of an annual bonus a few months after the end
of financial year, the Executive Director of Human Development would like to introduce the bonus
payment after the end of the project or biannually or quarterly. He is also keen to implement one of
the latest trends to become an agile working environment, where traditional offices are replaced with
multiple hot desks and open ocean floor space layout, to improve internal communication. The new
group of employees will use notebooks instead of fixed workstations. The additional bank plans to
save the office space, and decrease square meters per employee. The bank will encourage employees
to spend more time with (potential) clients and also introduce a work from home option. The Chief of
Cyber Security sees the additional technical challenges to provide the same level of IT security when
employees remotely access some of the internal IT systems.
