  • In this episode I'm going to talk about hybrid meetings and hybrid working.

    For nearly two years we haven’t really been back to the office. Now that people are starting to go back, what they find seems like the dark ages. Their meeting rooms, if they even have any communications capability at all, are only equipped with rudimentary audio-conferencing equipment. Often with only a speakerphone. While working from home employees had a great meeting experience, and that’s what they are expecting back in the office. Employees are expecting hybrid meetings to be as good as they have on their laptops while sitting on the sofa in their living room.

  • In this episode, I talk about infrastructure redesign for a modern digital workplace. You're probably familiar with VPN connections into a "secure" corporate network and having lots of on-premise servers providing your IT services. Well I'm going to throw all that out of the window, you don't need it and it's holding your organisation back. Through this episode I tell you how you can flatten your network infrastructure, embrace a zero trust architecture that allows you to keep it all secure and save big when it comes to your budget.

  • In this episode I talk about hardware choices, and how you can make the right ones for your users and organisation. Sometimes the right choice is obvious, but often it’s a real dilemma. I’m not just talking about end-user devices though, hardware of varying types is found in different forms all across organisations and as you build your digital workplace strategy you’ll have to make decisions about all manner of equipment.

  • Personas are not new, they’re not digital either. So why am I talking about them today? Well, they’re an extremely useful tool to have in your toolbox as you try to enable your organisation become digital. Digital ways of working are not a one size fits all approach, so you need to identify the cohorts of users in your organisation who have roughly the same needs. For example, a remote worker will have different needs to a warehouse operative.

    In this episode, I’m going to explain how you can identify the different personas in your organisation, develop their persona profiles, identify their personal pain points and build a digital strategy to make their job easier, more productive and less stressful for them.

  • There are many change management methodologies. Ranging from next to no change management at all, to structured formal systems such as Prosci ADKARÂź.

    I’m known for a no-nonsense approach to just about everything I do, probably stemming from my LEAN background and the desire to drive out waste anywhere I see it. However, when it comes to change management you really do need to think about it in the context of your organisation.

    In this episode, I’m going to talk about the essential elements you need to consider when implementing change as your organisation becomes digital.

  • The term digital transformation has been grossly overused over the last few years, it’s much simpler than some would have you believe and so I’ve simplified its name to “becoming digital”. In this episode, I’m going to talk about what it means to “become digital”, where you start and some of the decisions you’ll be taking along the way.
