Interact 2018 - Embracing an ever-changing future for digital advertising
Held in Milan on 23-24 May, IAB Europe’s annual 2-day conference Interact 2018 featured a keynote speech by Amelia Torode, Founder of The Fawnbrake Collective.
The importance of digital advertising to business growth will only increase – but that doesn’t make the future of digital advertising any more predictable. To thrive, businesses must embrace the continual disruption that is characteristic of the digital landscape. Brand strategist Amelia Torode examines the practical changes that they can make, in order to do so: not just executing digital transformation programmes, but building business strategies, workplace cultures and supplier relationships that are optimised for on-going change.

Changing Role of the Auditor (2013)?
October 10, 2013, i was asked to speak at the Accouting Insight event; Future Changing Role of the Auditor. Two limitations. Other speakers talked about technology and education.So i focussed on the question; does our 'role' change? I dont think so. We are (we should), we will, that trusted advisor, serving the society with an independent and objective view by providing assurance (trust).
Lets start improving that role instead of thinking about changing it.
Growing a Company Without Bosses
The document discusses growing a company without traditional bosses or top-down management. It argues that most companies are overly managed, which limits employee engagement, productivity, and innovation. As an alternative, it proposes that companies can function like ecosystems or self-organizing machines, with distributed authority, self-management, and holacracy. This allows for purpose and values, information sharing, role design, decision making, and other processes to be determined collaboratively without hierarchical control. Several examples of companies successfully using this approach are provided.
Peter drucker famous quotes
The document contains 10 famous quotes by Peter Drucker on topics such as leadership, management, planning, risk-taking, and efficiency. The quotes emphasize doing the right thing over doing things right, stopping old practices to adopt new ones, measuring what is important to drive improvement, and focusing on opportunities rather than just problems. Drucker also notes that meetings often indicate an inefficient organization and that management ensures things are done correctly while leadership determines the right things to do.

Create a Future of Your Own Design
Today, success depends on businesses adopting some new ways to think about working together.
Learn three changes in thought and behavior that will give your business a say in how its future unfolds.
Creating a culture of excellence
Creating a culture of excellence takes continuous effort over the long run, not overnight. Companies should start by deciding what excellence looks like for their own organization and developing goals and benchmarks. They can then motivate employees through engagement, rewarding productivity over long hours, promoting health and work-life balance. Developing an engaged workforce through open communication of changes builds productivity. Investing in technology and workspace design that keeps employees comfortable and connected can further support a culture of excellence.
Change Management
The document discusses managing change in organizations. It states that change is constant and inevitable, and organizations must learn to adapt quickly. It identifies several keys to managing change successfully, including understanding systems thinking, communicating openly with employees, addressing emotions related to change, creating a vision and short-term wins, and institutionalizing changes into the organizational culture. The document also lists common reasons why change efforts fail, such as complacency, lack of buy-in, and not anchoring changes firmly.
Execution turning vision into reality
The document discusses the three key elements of effective execution: creating an execution-focused culture, involving and developing the right people, and instituting robust systems and processes. It emphasizes establishing personal responsibility and accountability, choosing the right people and investing in their development, tying objectives to strategy and goals, and rigorously following up on objectives. The overall message is that execution is critical for organizational success.
Steps To Building A Change Accepting Environment
Post SMPS conference write up on the topic shared, how to build change accepting work environments. The session received the highest ranking and evaluations of any given that week.
HR Roundtable - Cyndi Graziano Presentation
The document discusses strategies for human resources professionals to help retain talent. It recommends that HR professionals (1) act as internal consultants by staying connected to the business and industry, listening well, and thinking proactively; (2) navigate company changes with finesse and believe in developing a strong talent bench; and (3) grow talent by providing opportunities and removing underperformers, achieving staff's full potential through development, gaining confidence to advise strategically, and ending conversations by asking what more can be done.
Building Simpler Corporate Cultures
The document discusses creating simpler corporate cultures. It argues that simplicity is crucial for employee engagement and success in an increasingly complex work environment. Creating a simpler culture involves balancing the needs of three stakeholders - individuals, customers, and the company - by focusing on ease of use, effort and value for all. Key aspects of a simpler culture include trust, empowerment, clarity of roles and processes, and ensuring simplicity for every individual. Regular measurement of simplicity across the three stakeholder groups is important for continuous improvement. The most crucial first step is open and honest assessment of the current culture and identifying areas of unnecessary complexity.
AZSHRM - Interdepartmental Relationships - Keep People and Departments Runnin...
This document discusses how to improve interdepartmental relationships and collaboration in organizations. It notes that poor internal collaboration can lead to reduced efficiency, lower morale, and poorer customer experiences. The document recommends that companies establish clear lines of communication between departments, conduct surveys to evaluate interdepartmental collaboration, and promote empathy and understanding between teams to break down silos. Leading by example and cultivating a culture where employees are comfortable sharing opinions can also help improve internal teamwork and customer service.
Culture transformation Are You Ready?
As CEO, you and only you can lead culture change in your business. Get it right and you’ll reap the rewards–for your company’s growth, for the bottom line, and for employee engagement. Get it wrong and it’s your reputation on the line.
Twelve Months to a Turn-around (a.k.a. How to build a great culture)
The document discusses how to turn around an underperforming business in 12 months through building a strong organizational culture. It emphasizes that the leader's sole purpose should be developing a strong culture by setting the right example, being transparent and accessible, ensuring all employees understand and feel connected to the company's vision and goals. Key steps include removing executive perks to promote equality, limiting turnover, celebrating wins together and fostering an open and positive work environment where employees feel valued and accountable. By prioritizing culture in this way and aligning all functional areas behind a clear strategy, the leader can build a high-performing team and deliver sustainable growth.

Successful CEOs exhibit traits like authenticity, empathy, and an ability to nurture talent so the organization can respond quickly when needed.

Grant Thornton, a UK professional services firm, embarked on an ambitious cultural change initiative called "Ambition 2015" to shift its culture and grow revenues. The head of talent development, Mel Wombwell, led workshops and programs to help employees transition from solely task-focused work to building deeper client relationships. By asking open-ended questions of clients and showing vulnerability, employees found they could better understand clients and win new business. While cultural change is ongoing, Grant Thornton has already seen phenomenal success through shifting behaviors and beliefs across the organization.

Transition: The human side of change
Why can’t people just get with the program? They question, they challenge, they complain… and it’s all perfectly predictable and normal.
Transition is the emotional process people go through when adapting to a change in their world. It doesn’t matter if the change is positive, like having a new baby or getting promoted. People still have to let go of some parts of their life (perhaps the luxury of sleeping late!) and learn new things (how to change a diaper while half asleep).
The process is predictable, according to the work seminal done by organizational thinker and consultant William Bridges. Leaders who understand what people typically experience during change can put measures into place to help accelerate the transition process.

Employer Case Summary Simon Rouse
Simon Rouse - Managing Director PeoplePlusUK
Mike: Welcome to Coventry University and for taking part in this collaboration. Can you start by telling us a bit about yourself, what you do, what is your experience in business, about what role you take and where does it fit in the business?
Simon: Sure, a pleasure to be here. I started out in banking, I joined Barclays as a graduate many, many years ago and did lot of different thigs with them, from leading a digital operation to leading their branch network across the country and in London. My time with Barclays has given me the skills and chance to lead large scales digital people, operations and businesses and I spend time at Santander, a Spanish company, a different culture, I was leading a national business there, delivering investment, international advice across the UK, and in the latter part of my career, I focused on public-private sector partnerships I did a number of years at Capita and now I work at People Plus. People Plus does 3 things: 16000 people across the UK who are helping transform people’s lives, we help people who are imprisoned and offer education for those who want to turn their lives around, we run a rehabilitation company, I help people that need access to carers to get those carers, we help people get long-term employment jobs for those who specialise to helping people start their own businesses and we deliver apprenticeships. From banking to making a big difference is my experience.
Mike: That’s great. That means you are very well experienced, and our next question is about leadership, how do you understand leadership on a team and company level?
Simon: I apply the same philosophy today in leading to the same when I started out regardless of the number of people in my team. I believe that people have a lot of potential and your job is to create the right climate and the right processes, environment for them to succeed to create a sense of what the future looks like as a vision, success what will feel like for them when they will get there. That’s how I approach things today: we have a statement of vision to make a difference in 1 million lives of people by 2022, we talk about the business and what the milestones of that journey will be, and I focus on the talent I need in order to achieve these goals, finding the best talent I can from outside the organisation and to bring them here and to find the best talent in the organisation and develop it. Leadership for me is about creating a clear view for people, create a climate for them to succeed in and let them get on with what they do best which is serving the clients we work with.
Mike: Right, that’s very interesting in terms of what students are looking at because we do a contrast between transformational and transactional leadership and that’s very much transformational. Are there times when transactional leadership works better?

Leadership that can support people through these times, need to have different skills and behaviours from those previously relied on or held dear… Leaders today are required to innovate, and as was once said by Dick Watts, Chief operating Officer of HP, “Those that see the invisible; can achieve the impossible. Good leaders help others to find the unknown less threatening. Leadership is much too important to leave to those at the top of an organisation! Leadership is not a box on an organisation chart; it is the person and their abilities!”
- Helping people lift their sightsRaising heads from day job, giving them something to get excited by so they are prepared to take risks, to think differentlyWhat are leaders letting go of so staff can grasp hold of things, so not all clutching the same things
- No words are RED here?
- enabling everyone to contribute and feel involved regardless of location
