This document discusses the importance of brands and living the brand. It notes that a brand consists of the central idea, product, environment, behavior, and communications. The pursuit of added value through these elements is central to brand building. Customers buy into the combination of the brand inside the organization and the brand outside through the customer experience. Living the brand means ensuring consistency across the central idea, product, environment, behavior, and communications. Strategic errors that can undermine a brand include confusing brands and logos, lacking a relevant central idea, poor customer experience, overreliance on advertising, overstretching the brand, forgetting the brand internally, and incongruence between internal and external messaging.

Creating Business Value from Big Data, Analytics & Technology.BigDataCloud
The document discusses strategies for big data analytics. It describes how the volume, velocity, and variety of data is growing exponentially due to factors like the internet, mobile devices, and sensors. This "big data" can provide competitive advantages if analyzed in real-time to generate predictive insights. Two case studies are described: predicting battery performance for electric vehicles using analytics on battery, driver, weather and other data, and analyzing casino gaming data to identify profitable customer segments and recommend individual offers.
The document discusses problems with harnessing big data and making companies more data-driven. It proposes empowering consumers to control and profit from sharing their personal data by creating a marketplace where consumer data can be traded. The plan is to build a minimum viable product allowing consumers to access, manage and sell access to their data while complying with regulations. Organizations and advertisers would be able to purchase consumer data to improve targeting and experiences. The goal is to test the value proposition, build the underlying technology, and establish an independent company.

De kansen van samenwerking in de supply chain - Prof. dr. Jack van der VeenFacto Magazine
Facility Management bevindt zich in toenemende mate in diverse interne en externe ketens. Hierdoor wordt samenwerking met facilitair dienstverleners en andere ondersteunende afdelingen steeds belangrijker. Een nieuw paradigma ontstaat om de maximale klantwaarde uit die ketens te onttrekken tegen minimale kosten.
Wat zijn de onderliggende principes en uitgangspunten van Ketensamenwerking. Hoe kan Facility Management de keten slim gebruiken om strategische waarde te creëren? En kan of moet Facility Management wel ketenregisseur zijn?

3. Doel van een business case
– Een Business Case helpt bij het nemen van
beslissingen door het vertalen van plannen naar
een kwantitatief ‘weddenschapsmodel’
– Het dwingt de beslissers om de verwachte
uitkomsten te expliciteren
– HRM maakt haar activiteiten toetsbaar

• Doelstelling en relatie met organisatiestrategie
• Risico’s en randvoorwaarden
• Tijdshorizon en –planning met mijlpalen
2. Bepaal de kosten van het beleid:
• Materiele kosten
• Personeelskosten
3. Bepaal de verwachte effecten
4. Kies kengetallen om verwachte effecten (financieel) meetbaar te
maken

7. Valkuilen bij het maken van een
business case
• Business Case wordt uitsluitend als ‘sales’ instrument gebruikt
• Kloppend maken van de business case
• Liegen met statistiek
• Keuze en volgorde van alternatieven
• Niet-realistische uitgangspunten (extrapolatie, onmogelijke
randvoorwaarden)
• Vergeten van variabele en terugkerende kosten (beheer,
onderhoud, nascholing, etc.).
• Toch afmaken als het niet blijkt te werken. ‘Fallacy of Sunk
costs’.
• Na het project de follow-up verzuimen.
