Time to move from process focused automation to data centric automation pptMindfields Global
With workflows becoming increasingly complicated, the current process-centric approach is becoming more expensive to run – either through cost of automation or through the cost of people doing the work. With increasing focus on data in organisations we believe that data-driven organisations must also think differently when it comes to the role of data in their automation activities. Companies can continue to devise more complex and costly work-arounds to make a process-centric approach work in a data-centric world, or they can use an automation approach that is inherently data-centric to drive the next phase of Hyperautomation.

The shell of a raw egg can be removed by soaking it in vinegar for 3 days. The acetic acid in the vinegar dissolves the calcium carbonate crystals that form the eggshell, leaving only a thin pellicle layer that can be gently rubbed off under running water. This produces an intact shell-less egg whose contents can be seen moving within and compressed without the rigid shell structure. However, any break in the delicate remaining pellicle causes the egg contents to spill out.

STKI Israeli Market Study 2023 corrected forecast 2023_24 v3.pdfDr. Jimmy Schwarzkopf
The document appears to be a presentation from STKI IT Knowledge Integrators on the state of Israel's economy and IT market following the outbreak of war in October 2023. It includes data and forecasts from various sources on how the war has negatively impacted Israel's GDP, business activity, and key industries. The original forecast predicted growth in Israel's IT market from 2018-2024, but the forecast has been corrected downward due to the unforeseen economic damage from the war, with the IT market now expected to decline in 2023 and 2024 compared to 2022 levels.
The document describes STKI, an IT market research and strategic analyst firm based in Israel. Over its 31 years in business, STKI has established relationships with major IT organizations and vendors through thousands of annual interviews. STKI uses an equilibrium model to analyze both what users purchase from vendors and what vendors sell, in order to determine the overall Israeli IT market size. The company provides research reports, briefings, and workshops to clients on topics like technology trends, industry surveys, and vendor positioning.

It also discusses the human factors of product-led organizations like empowering teams, keeping people interested and informed, and addressing issues like the great resignation and quiet quitting. The overall document provides insights into improving collaboration and communication in product-led companies.
The document discusses the evolution of the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) role over time. It describes how the OCIO started as an "order taker" for IT in the 1990s (OCIO v1). In the 2000s, the OCIO was established to better align IT with business needs (OCIO v2). Later, business relationship managers (BRMs) were introduced to improve customer experience but acted as bottlenecks (2017-2022). The document argues for a product-led organization where product teams are empowered and the OCIO acts as an enabler by providing resources and skills to product managers based on product success metrics.
This document discusses platform teams and platform engineering. It introduces platform products as products that can be easily used by other teams to focus on business problems while maintaining standards. Platform engineering is defined as designing and building toolchains and workflows that enable self-service capabilities for other teams. Platform products have functionality above the surface that developers see, and infrastructure components below the surface. Integration platforms, SRE, SASE, storage and backup tools, and micro frontends are discussed as examples of platform products.
This document discusses transitioning from a project-led organization to a product-led organization. It notes that while many companies have tried approaches like agile, digital transformation and design thinking, software projects still often fail to deliver user satisfaction. It advocates empowering product teams to own the entire product lifecycle and giving them autonomy to solve problems, rather than managing software development as a series of projects. This approach mirrors how successful startups operate and can help deliver better customer outcomes.
This document discusses transforming from data projects to data products. It outlines how companies can adopt a product mindset and focus on creating data products that solve specific customer problems. Key aspects include defining data product teams led by data product managers, adopting a product mindset of focusing on outcomes rather than outputs, and using storytelling to communicate insights from data products. The presentation argues that treating data as a product can create competitive advantages and that every company may need to become a data science company in the future.
This document discusses product discovery and the importance of making the process data-driven. It recommends gathering customer data from various sources, analyzing the customer experience, and using product analytics tools to obtain both quantitative and qualitative insights. This will help ensure ideas are validated with real customers before significant development work begins. The goal is to learn fast through discovery while still releasing products with confidence.
The document discusses content from STKI, an IT knowledge integration company, including information about their new website and content examples. It covers topics like digital disruption, the four industrial revolutions, predictions for 2023 in Israel, and how every company will need to become a software company. Across multiple pages, it provides definitions, predictions, recommendations, and perspectives on challenges and opportunities brought about by digital transformation and the fourth industrial revolution.
The document is a slide deck from STKI, an Israeli market research and strategic analyst firm, discussing the impact of global events on IT budgets in Israel in 2022-2024. It notes that while IT budget increases were forecasted to be large in 2022, events like the war in Ukraine, inflation, interest rate hikes, and political instability have changed the outlook. IT budgets in Israel are still expected to rise 12-13% in 2022 but forecasts beyond that are difficult given uncertainties. Digital transformation alone is no longer sufficient - companies must undergo smart business transformations to deliver personalized, data-driven experiences to customers.

The past 2 years have had a huge impact on organizations journeys to become data driven. Existing data architectures were disrupted; rigid structures and processes were questioned, and many data strategies were re-written.
On the one hand, the global pandemic emphasized the need for organizations to raise the bar, implement strategies, improve data literacy and culture, increase investments in data and analytics, and explore AI opportunities.
On the other, it also presented new challenges such as: the war for data talent and the wide literacy gap. Inadequate structures as well as outdated processes were exposed. Major changes in the data landscape (Data Fabric, Data Mesh, Transition to Data Clouds) will further disrupt existing data architectures and enhance the need for a new adaptive architecture and organization.
Recommended for CTOs, architects, IT Managers
COVID-19 has emphasized the fact that business agility and hence technology agility are the most if not the only factors for business success. However, technology agility in most IT departments is not the “strongest muscle”. Technology adoption of Cloud, Devops, Integration, Low-Code and Zero Trust are affecting all IT departments and even the entire organization. New
processes and relationships between the various branches of the IT department should emerge, forsaking old habits and technologies. New technologies and roles\responsibilities are taking their place.
Recommended for CXOs and all IT Managers
If COVID-19 has demonstrated anything it is that organizations can no longer rely on traditional long-term strategic direction-setting, in order to succeed and grow. Today, organizations need to be able to quickly identify changes and respond with speed.

1. Upgrade Your Lighting: One of the easiest ways to save energy is by switching to energy-efficient lighting options like LED bulbs. LEDs use significantly less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs and last much longer, so you'll save money on both energy and replacement costs in the long run.
2. Install Motion Sensors: Do you have areas in your commercial space that aren't always in use, like storage rooms or bathrooms? Consider installing motion sensors that automatically turn lights off when no one is around. This simple addition can lead to significant energy savings over time.
3. Optimize Heating and Cooling: Heating and cooling can account for a big portion of your energy bills, especially in larger commercial spaces. To save energy, make sure your HVAC system is properly maintained and consider investing in a programmable thermostat. You can also encourage employees to dress in layers to reduce the need for excessive heating or cooling.
4. Seal Leaks and Insulate: A well-insulated building is more energy efficient because it retains heat in the winter and keeps cool air in during the summer. Check for drafts around windows and doors and seal them with weather stripping or caulking. Adding insulation to walls, floors, and ceilings can also make a big difference in your energy consumption.
5. Use Energy-Efficient Equipment: When it's time to replace old appliances or equipment in your commercial space, opt for energy-efficient models. Look for the ENERGY STAR label, which indicates that the product meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the Environmental Protection Agency.
6. Encourage Energy-Saving Habits: Sometimes, the simplest changes can have the biggest impact. Encourage employees to turn off lights and electronics when they're not in use, unplug chargers and other devices when they're fully charged, and use natural light whenever possible.
7. Conduct an Energy Audit: If you're serious about improving energy efficiency in your commercial space, consider hiring a professional to conduct an energy audit. They'll assess your energy usage and identify areas where you can make improvements, ultimately helping you save even more money in the long run.
8. Educate and Involve Employees: Finally, don't forget to involve your employees in your energy-saving efforts. Educate them about the importance of energy efficiency and encourage them to come up with their own ideas for saving energy in the workplace. When everyone is on board, you'll see even greater results.

Staffan Canback - The 18 Rays of Project ManagementTellusant, Inc.
A while back I created this training material for project managers in 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴. I am now sharing it widely since it is useful to a broader audience.
A central theme is that project management is much more than putting together presentations. It covers all kinds of high-level cognitive efforts, which is why it is exciting (at first).
It is also important to note that you do not improvise your way into project management. It is a well-developed craft that is far down its experience curve.
I started my career at McKinsey & Company in 1984 and was an Engagement Manager between 1986 and 1989. I then became a partner. So my project management days are long gone, but I have interacted with and trained countless young consultants since.
The document is not a manual. If you follow it 100% you would not have time to do your project management job. But I trust there is always an idea or two that is useful on any project.
To me, the most difficult part of this document was to create the 18 rays with the grey contours. It involves some trigonometry. Getting this right was fun.

26. What is going on for CIOs ? (2) Business Process mapping Few Israeli firms can map their processes in ways that permit simulations, what- if analysis or even basic descriptive analysis of how the firm works.

50. IT INDUSTRY over 13% GR0WTH Awareness Interest Consideration Trial Purchase
51. What is going on in our industry? (1) The IT industry in Israel is consolidating by buying competitors but especially smaller niche companies Commodization of more and more infrastructure products and services. Differentiation in this space is tough and tougher to generate profits Companies require scale in order to make profits (not only by becoming larger but by selling out of Israel) What does this mean for CIOs ? Fewer choices (less competition, vendor power, monopolies) Fewer “bells and whistles” in project management Higher prices or less negotiating room
53. What is going on in our industry? (2) Higher cost for “HUMAN CAPITAL” in Israel Less students graduating from IT related fields Boom in IT related startups Salary freeze or reductions since 2000 The market is scarce on the following professions: Experienced DBAs, storage management, security and other complex infrastructure professions. Experienced ERP, CRM, BI professionals Experienced IT project managers What does this mean for CIOs ? Salaries as an average will grow in 2006 by 15% (with professions like DBA, ERP and CRM in the 25%-30% range)
57. Sometimes you compare and realize it is not FAIR but…… All numbers on MILLIONS of US Dollars
58. RISC and Proprietary Servers Mainframes are here to stay Other proprietary OS(AS/400 and openVMS) have migrated to other hardware architectures Factors affecting RISC 64 bit X86 Linux and Microsoft Itanium RISC Servers PROPRIETARY
59. Servers - Industry Standard Consolidation will drive this market Several “WINTEL” architectures out there and confusion with users 64 bit X86 will become the standard architecture with either or both Windows and Linux installed other OS: HP-UX and Solaris 10 Virtualization software and dynamic partitioning will be the standard Multicore and multithreading will be mainstream
60. PC Clients Notebooks will have a slowdown in growth in 2006, but with new more powerful models that can handle VISTA it will boom again in 2007 There will be a comeback to desktop computers because of the security risks of notebooks DESKTOP LAPTOPS
61. Storage (disks, tapes and software) Storage is growing by over 30% a year (capacity) Software is becoming a major ingredient and differentiator The mix will change having companies buy more and more of cheaper storage All storage is becoming cheaper : 30-40% a year Integration and Mgmt major part of investment
62. Printers and “ink & drums” Printer consolidation and technology changes will be the issues in 2006-7 Consolidation will save huge amounts of money Color lasers are still a luxury
63. Data Networking “dealers” plus suppliers Equipment supplier CISCO is still number one but Nortel has become second while all the rest are far behind. Wireless, VoIP and other issues will be important in 2006-7
64. Software Cycles Many models of software pricing and software deployment available Area that can bring much needed relieve if taken seriously by users
65. Software: system and tools With new middleware suites and SOA architectures the software market will maintain its growth Many open source companies are being “bought” by vendors. Will this change things?
66. Software: applications (local & imported) We will see more banking, retail, insurance and credit card packages enter the market. Competition in the SMB market will heat up, with the planned change of most FIRST generation applications
67. Total for Value Added Services (VAS) Types of services: Types of projects
68. Consulting Projects FINALLY consulting has been differentiated from other service products. Clients understand that consultants do not integrate or are part of integration teams Consultants help clients define needs and technologies (ie : RFPs and project supervision). Consultants cannot work for vendors (analysts are not consultants), need to demonstrate no conflict of interest.
69. Application / Integration Projects Project management skills in integration and in development projects are not the same. More and more enterprises are basing their new applications in packages.
70. Infrastructure / Integration Projects Service oriented infrastructures, new 64 bit standard servers, new networking and storage technologies require intense infrastructure integration projects.
71. Computer room and other “environment” integration projects STKI has not “tiered” companies in this area for 2006 The market is heating up and new players are coming in New technologies require rooms similar to those of the 1980s because of: very heavy need of cooling, electricity and weight requirements of new servers and storage equipment
72. Risk / Integration Projects RISK integration projects (including products) are getting to about 5%-7% of IT budgets. Companies that thought they can “cut” their security costs are licking their wounds. Costs are problematic because they show no ROI
73. Testing / QA Projects Testing of all forms should be about 15%-18% of project costs. In Israel we are far behind and this shows in project/integration quality. Most testing should include methodologies and experts from this companies NOT organic departments
74. IT education and Implementation Training Training of employees in project management (AGILE), SOA and other new technologies will boom. On average an employee should get ONE week advanced training a year. Implementation of new application involves training users of applications and new ones as they are hired or transferred (years). Also yearly refresh courses should be mandatory.
75. Total OUTSOURCING services OUTSOURCING is a win-win proposition for both the user and the vendor if done properly
76. DRP and Specialized Hosting Services Business continuity needs and the need for expensive “ environmental support ” is pushing clients to this vendors
77. ASP/ software based hosting MICROSOFT is allowing ASPs to sell server software as a service Salesforce.com allows Hebrew and its AppXchage will allow connection to others ERP vendors will try to implement on 2006 www.numsum.com
79. Outsourcing (SLA) and BPO Business Process Outsourcing like salaries have become standard. New BPOs are entering the market. The most common outsourced functions are: Help desk Infrastructure/ Operations Security is starting Full installation outsourcing
80. Temps / contracted experts Most common service bought Very different models: from companies that support their employees with technology centers for knowledge, extensive training of employees to those that are “shoot and forget”
