The internet can be characterized very simply. Billions of people are looking for interesting and useful information, and millions of companies are trying to make money by people finding their content, through search engines and increasingly on social media. This has led to the rise of companies such as Demand Media, which last week listed on New York Stock Exchange to be valued at $1.5 billion , more than the New York Times.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability.

Lee takes a rag tag bunch of misfits and transforms them into a cohesive fighting unit. Being a CIO is similar to being the Lee Marvin role.

Personal branding is one of the big themes today, for a number of reasons. As I wrote in five key trends in how influence is transforming society , one of the dominant forces is that reputation is shifting from the corporate to the individual. People build relationships and place trust in individuals more than organizations, changing how (the best) companies organize themselves and engage externally.

In particular people are often confused by the relationship between our primary companies: Advanced Human Technologies , Future Exploration Network , and The Insight Exchange.

If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
