How to Hook Customers with Habit-forming ProductsWrike
https://www.wrike.com/blog/interview-with-nir-eyal-hooked/ - Engaging products don't happen by mistake. We interviewed Nir Eyal, author of Hooked: How To Build Habit-Forming Products. His background in advertising and gaming has led him to write about consumer psychology principles that change customers' behavior. He explains how to create engaging products using the Hook model.

WTF - Why the Future Is Up to Us - pptx versionTim O'Reilly
This is the talk I gave January 12, 2017 at the G20/OECD Conference on the Digital Future in Berlin. I talk about fitness landscapes as applied to technology and business, the role of unchecked financialization in the state of our politics and economy, and why technology really wants to create jobs, not destroy them. (There is a separate PDF version, but some readers said the notes were too fuzzy to read.)
Creative Traction Methodology - For Early Stage StartupsTommaso Di Bartolo
How to build a mindset that gets a new product traction? 99% of all startups are forced to give up because they lack traction. As founders are thrilled and captivated to build a product that could change the world - the majority downright neglects to put equal efforts towards how to differentiate in taking the product to market. The difference between those who make it to get traction and the rest lies in the innovator’s mindset.
Lee Rainie, director of internet and technology research at Pew Research Center, presented these findings at the International Monetary Fund/World Bank’s Youth Dialogue and its program, “A World Without Work?” The findings tie to several pieces of research at the Center, including reports on the state of American jobs, automation in everyday life, and the future of jobs training programs.

10 Classic Growth Hacks: Hints at the Future of MarketingRyan Holiday
Adapted from "Growth Hacker Marketing: A Primer on the Future of PR, Marketing, and Advertising" by Ryan Holiday.
http://www.amazon.com/Growth-Hacker-Marketing-Primer-Advertising/dp/1591847389/ryanholnet-20
"Everything you thought you knew about marketing is obsolete.
We can see the incontrovertible evidence right in front of us. A new generation of multibillion dollar brands—Facebook, Twitter, AirBnb, Evernote, and countless others—have been built without spending a dime on traditional marketing techniques. No press releases, no PR firm, no Madison Avenue, no billboards in Times Square.
It wasn’t luck that took them from tiny start-ups to massive success. They have a new strategy. It’s called Growth Hacking. And it works.
A Growth Hacker is someone who rejects what “marketing” is supposed to be and replaces it only with tools that are testable, trackable, and scalable. Growth Hackers rely on inexpensive tactics like e-mail, pay-per-click ads, blogs, and platform APIs. They chase real results in a field that was dominated by gut instincts for nearly a century. They reject the traditional marketing worship of all things big: big budgets, big campaigns, big opening weekends. Instead, they embrace the opposite: taking a start-up from nothing to something, launching a Kickstarter project, building something that truly spreads.
Growth Hacker Marketing offers both a new mindset and a new set of rules. Bestselling author Ryan Holiday, the former director of marketing for American Apparel, will convince you of the urgency of this awakening. He shows why the game has changed forever and what to do about it—whether you are an aspiring marketer, an entrepreneur, or a Fortune 500 senior executive."
In this webinar Why Managing Sucks and How to Fix It join author Jody Thompson and Razor Suleman as they show you a few simple changes to management behaviors that will transform your 20th century workplace into a 21st century workforce!

Creating great decks: The Origins, the "Why", and 12 Tips to Make Yours Better.Digital Surgeons
A big part of what we do is in the story we tell and how it’s presented. You’re probably thinking… decks, decks, and more decks. We hate em’, yet we love the good ones. There’s a certain formula that is used for every impactful story, speech, slide, and keynote. In this presentation we take a step back and really try to look at the elements of an impactful presentation. We've codified all of what goes into making a great deck, starting with the origins, the why, and ending with few tips to help elevate yours for whatever purposes they serve.
Building an enduring, multi-billion dollar consumer technology company is hard. As an investor, knowing which startups have the potential to be massive and long-lasting is also hard. From both perspectives, identifying companies with this potential is a combination of “art” and “science” — the art is understanding how products work, and the science is knowing how to measure it. At the earliest stages of a company, it comes down to understanding how a product is built to maximize and leverage user engagement.
In this presentation, Sarah Tavel shares her "Hierarchy of Engagement" framework she uses to evaluate non-transactional consumer companies she is looking to invest in.
Products can profoundly CHANGE OUR BEHAVIORS.
100’s of millions of users and 100’s of millions of dollars.
Habit: A BEHAVIOR DONE WITH CONSCIOUS THOUGHT LITTLE OR NO
HABITS ARE BUILT UPON like the layers of a pearl.
Triggers come in two favors: EXTERNAL & INTERNAL
EXTERNAL TRIGGERS: The information for what to do next is within the trigger. Billboards SODA
INTERNAL TRIGGERS: The information for what to do next is informed through an association in the users Billboards SODA
People who are depressed check email more often
When we feel LONELY we use
When we feel UNSURE we use
When we are BORED we use
Do you know your customer’s INTERNAL TRIGGER?
What triggers make so habit-forming?
Fear of losing the moment. Solves the pain but it is also a social network.
The SIMPLEST BEHAVIOR in anticipation of a reward.
According to BJ Fogg, for any behavior to occur, we need MOTIVATION, ABILITY, and a TRIGGER
THE ENERGY FOR ACTION
THERE ARE SIX FACTORS THAT CAN INCREASE MOTIVATION. Seeking Pleasure, Avoiding Pain, Seeking Hope, Avoiding Fear, Seeking Acceptance, Avoiding Rejection
ABILITY: the capacity to do a particular action
Level of motivation and ability determines if action will occur. Source: Dr. BJ Fogg, Stanford University TRIGGER SUCCEEDS TRIGGER FAILS
It all starts with the ACCUMBENS
Not exactly stimulating pleasure?
They were stimulating the STRESS OF DESIRE.
Our reward system activates with anticipation … and calms when we get what we want.
That’s the ITCH we seek to SCRATCH.
There is a way to supercharge the stress of desire.
Variability causes us to focus and engagement …and increases behavior.
The nucleus accumbens is stimulated by variability.
3 types of VARIABLE REWARDS: TRIBE, HUNT, SELF
TRIBE SEARCH FOR SOCIAL REWARDS
We like social rewards
We value recognition and cooperation
HUNT SEARCH FOR RESOURCES
Stems from the hunt for food and resources
Hunt for variable material rewards
Hunt for variable information rewards
WARNING! Variable rewards are not a free pass. Your products must address the itch
Build variable rewards that scratch the users itch but leave them wanting more
Users invest for future benefits: Social Capital, Money, Time, Effort, Emotional Commitment, and Personal Data
Investments increase the likelihood of the next pass through the Hook in TWO ways
INVESTMENTS LOAD THE NEXT TRIGGER OF THE HOOK
Each pass through the Hook helps
THE MORALITY OF MANIPULATION
Users take our technologies to bed
They check our devices before saying good morning to loved ones.
Quite possibly the CIGARETTE OF THIS CENTURY.

We suddenly live in a strange and wonderful nexus of digital and physical. Touchscreens let us hold information in our hands, and we touch, stretch, crumple, drag, and flick data itself. Our sensor-packed phones even reach beyond the screen to interact directly with the world around us. While these digital interfaces are becoming physical, the physical world is becoming digital, too. Objects, places, and even our bodies are lighting up with with sensors and connectivity. We’re not just clicking links anymore; we’re creating physical interfaces to digital systems. This requires new perspective and technique for web and product designers. The good news: it’s all within your reach. With a rich trove of examples, Designing for Touch author Josh Clark explores the practical, meaningful design opportunities for the web’s newly physical interfaces.

Interview with Edward M. Hallowell, MD,
author of Shine: Using Brain Science to
Get the Best from Your People
Interview by Juliet Harrison
E
dward Hallowell, MD, is a psychiatrist, served as an instructor at Harvard Medical
School for 20 years, and is the director of the Hallowell Centers in New York City and
Sudbury, Massachusetts. He has written two popular Harvard Business Review
articles and authored 18 books, including the national bestseller Driven to Distraction, that
have sold millions of copies.
In his latest book, Shine, Edward combines new research into brain science with what we
know about performance management to offer a proven process for managers to get the
best from their teams and their people. Hallowell introduces what he calls, ‘‘the cycle of
excellence’’ – a five-step plan that draws on his own work of helping people overcome
attention deficit problems and become more productive in everyday life.
What was the inspiration behind writing your recent book: Shine: Using Brain
Science to Get the Best from Your People?
For many years, I have been working with people who have learning differences to help them
achieve peak performance. About 15 years ago, I got interested in getting into the
population at large, specifically around the area of business and studying peak
performance. I wrote an article for the Harvard Business Review about 12 years ago,
called ‘‘The human moment at work’’[1] which was about the disappearance of face-to-face
communication as it is replaced by electronic communication, which has only become truer
and truer in recent years. I also became interested in how stressed and busy people are in
this electronic age, so I wrote another article for Harvard Business Review called:
‘‘Overloaded circuits: why smart people underperform’’[2]. The article had such an impact
that I went from that to a book called: Crazy Busy: Overstretched, Overbooked and About
the Snap. From that, there was an enthusiastic response, so I thought well why do not I write
a manual on how to bring the best out in people, since I have been studying it for most of my
professional life; with special attention to the modern age ...
How the current environment has redefined 3 key aspects of work and how you can adapt and prepare for it. With the rapidly advancing severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, much of the world has been strong-armed into having to work from home. And with that what has long been an experiment by a few, popular with a small percentage of working professionals, has become a reality for most. This sudden change in the way we work has quite possibly changed the future of work for good.

Problems that involve remote colleagues result in significantly
more severe impacts to productivity, cost, quality, and time, according to a
survey by VitalSmarts and Training magazine. But the situation isn't
hopeless. Here are some steps that can help.
"If people were down the hall, I'd know what to do. But
most of them work half-way across the world."
It used to be that only nerds and defective managers would use
phone calls and e-mails alone to address performance problems. Savvy leaders
would practice "management by walking around." They'd meet
with the person, face to face, because they'd want to use every
interpersonal skill in their tool kit.
But the world has changed. Now many of us rely on virtual
communication--not because we're nerds, but because we're working
with people we've never met and may never meet.
VitalSmarts partnered with Training magazine to explore the kinds
of problems this new work environment creates, and to offer some solutions.
We surveyed more than 2,000 employees and managers to learn from their
experiences.
The New World of Work
Our data confirmed that the world has changed: Some 64 percent of
the people we surveyed work with remote team members on a frequent basis.
These people rely extensively on virtual communication to solve
problems. E-mail, conference calls, and phone calls are the most common. No
surprise there, but we were surprised to find instant messaging came in as
one of the top three communication tools for nearly half the respondents.
As predicted, many problems are magnified when colleagues are
remote. In fact, the survey revealed people are four times as likely to say
that remote employees:
* Don't fight for their priorities.
* Don't work on their project or give it a half-hearted
effort.
* Make changes without warning.
And it isn't just cooperation that gets sapped by
distance--trust is drained, as well. People are three times as likely to say
people who are remote:
* Try to mislead them instead of giving accurate and timely
information.
* Don't follow through on commitments.
* Don't make deadlines.
* Don't warn them when they are going to miss a deadline.
Further, problems that involve remote colleagues take
significantly longer to solve, and they result in significantly more severe

What makes some products so engaging while others flop? Nir Eyal explains the psychology behind the world's most habit-forming technologies and provides practical advice for increasing user engagement.
Why People Check Their Tech at the Wrong Times (and the Simple Trick to Stop It)Nir Eyal
Chances are you've witnessed and even took active part in a lot of indiscriminate gadget use.
But staying silent about bad technology habits is making things worse for all of us.
We need to develop social antibodies, defenses against new harmful behaviors, or else we'll end up serving technology instead of it serving us.
If we don’t build social antibodies, the disease of distraction will become the new normal.
To do this, we need to find out who's to blame for our distraction and what we need to do about it.

There’s little doubt that nearly everyone who comes in contact with the Internet has difficulty disconnecting.
People everywhere are glued to their devices.
But who’s at fault for its overuse?
This deck explores the use and abuse of technology, especially in the workplace, so we can find solutions and understand what we’re dealing with.
There are four parties conspiring to keep you connected and they may not be whom you’d expect.

Making a Marketplace: A Checklist for Online DisruptionNir Eyal
On November 13, 2012, Bill Gurley, a partner at Benchmark Capital, posted a remarkable essay on his blog. In it, he described the, “10 factors to consider when evaluating digital marketplaces.” Given the tremendous value marketplaces are known to create and how hard they are to get right, we found this essay to be a goldmine of insight. We wanted to digest Bill’s post into a more memorable format.
The result is this brief checklist we hope will help take some of the luck out of evaluating marketplace businesses. As Bill wrote, “It is unlikely that you will find a marketplace opportunity that would score ten out of ten with respect to this list.” But according to Bill, the odds of success improve the more of these characteristics the business exhibits.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
