Als wir im Sommer 2014 mit der Entwicklung des Digital Maturity Model begannen, war unser Ziel ein Instrument zu entwickeln, mit dem Unternehmen das Phänomen digitale Transformation besser verstehen können und das Ihnen hilft, den eigenen Stand in der Digitalisierung zu erkennen und darauf aufbauend, Massnahmen in verschiedenen Bereichen zu planen. Wie das Ganze in … Continue reading Das Digital Maturity Model im Einsatz bei Post CH
Last week I finished a busy week by spending Friday afternoon at START Summit, a two-day conference and fair on entrepreneurship and innovation. The set-up of the conference is a mix between fair, keynotes, and smaller workshops. I only visited briefly and there was too little time to attend everything, however, I was glad I went. https://www.instagram.com/p/BSB0qbOlx1J/?taken-by=stadtnomadin To … Continue reading Digital entrepreneurs united at START Summit
Eine Sache, die mich immer wieder antreibt, inspiriert und beflügelt ist, Dinge zu tun, die ich vorher noch nie gemacht habe. Ich sage einfach gerne "Ja" zu Neuem und lasse mich dann überraschen, wie es ist und was es mit mir macht. So auch am letzten Wochenende: Ich setze mich in den Flieger nach Berlin, um … Continue reading Ein Wochenende mit “Verrückten” und hoher Energie in Berlin
During the WI conference in February I participated in an excursion to EMPA, which is not an obvious thing to do for a student of information systems. The EMPA - Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology - are not well known of, but a fascinating place in St.Gallen and they are producing high-class … Continue reading Outside the business box – Visiting EMPA in St.Gallen
I came across the short film "Ten Meter Tower" on Twitter and I have watched it at least three times in a row. This portrait of people on a ten meter tower, in doubt whether they should make the decision to jump or not, is capitivating. A very powerful film that indeed does not need … Continue reading Making a decision in risky situations – Ten Meter Tower
Last week our institute had the pleasure of hosting the biggest conference on information systems in the German speaking countries. I submitted a paper last August during my "workation" in Tallinn, however, I got my first reject. However, it was a close call (one reviewer said "yes", the other "no") and the feedback was quite helpful, so … Continue reading WI Conference in St.Gallen
When I was working in consulting I often observed that as soon as unexpected situations happened people started to get upset or react in panick. For example when a client expressed that she was really unhappy with a project or even got angry, many team members (no matter how long they have been in business) … Continue reading “The gamer’s advantage”
When researching on digital transformation a common question is "is there an ideal organizational format for the digital world?". I think there is not, as long as people do understand how the digital age works and take appropriate action. However, we can observe that the question of how an organization can achieve a higher degree … Continue reading Teal organizations – How to research cultural transformation?
In my current paper project (which will hopefully be the last paper of my dissertation) I am diving into text analytics. I am planning to analyze the strategic priorities and digitalization activities from annual reports of different companies over the course of 10 years. However, since it has been over 10 years since I studied information … Continue reading Getting Back into Text Analytics
I am reading Seth Godin's blog for years, not everyday (even though he posts every day), but pretty regularly. This interview with Marie Forleo contains so many brilliant thoughts that I wanted to make a note of. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtfvZ_KOiZY Why he blogs every day - " And if day after day, week after week, you leave … Continue reading Nuggets of wisdom from Seth Godin
