The reason is very simple. The work with Thomas and the others is absolutely stunning but also very time consuming since we do not like to stick to the first best solution but thrive for the best. And this means a lot of iterations and testing. Bringing the whole team behind the same ideas and values takes time. The bad news for most of readers is: The toolbox will be in German. And since we want to foster entrepreneurship in all parts of society we decided to write in plain and simple German with little Fachvokabular (technical vocabulary). So here come the two requests: For all German speakers, if you like the idea about the toolbox, please enter your mail in our list so we can inform you about the progress.The second request goes to all experts in business model innovation, strategic innovation management, customer insights via jobs-to-be done technique or entrepreneurial design. Cheers Patrick

Only recently a report from the Cabinet Office recommended CJM for authorities to provide a more efficient and cost-effective service. Arne van Oosterom outlines how it can help organisations - and lists the 10 key ingredents to a customer journey map. A product or service is merely a means to an end. The real deeper value lies in the story attached. I don’t want to own a coffee maker - I need to wake up early with a little help from a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, most organisations are not capable of listening to stories. People-centred approaches like Design Thinking, Social Design and Service Design have emerged because it provides us with useful methods and tools to bridge the gap. Change causes friction Only those who are adaptable survive. And it’s exactly in this area where the biggest business opportunities lie.

Startup compensation strategy & critical resources The competitive operating environment of the business world, demands that companies—including startups—recognize and compensate their most critical employees in order to succeed. Rewarding this top talent involves developing a critical resources compensation strategy. This type of strategy typically focuses on employees with one of both of the following: One or more scarce skills (i.e., skills required for success that are in low supply and high demand)Key behavioural qualities or competencies that are critical to the company’s success (e.g., leadership, ability to influence, competitive knowledge, communication skills) After identifying these employees and their critical attributes, it is necessary for your startup to create a compensation strategy that focuses on their retention and motivation. For information on an integrated retention and motivational strategy, see Employee retention strategies: Keeping top talent at your startup and Motivating employees at your startup. 1. 2. 3.
MongoDB For Beginners: Setting up MongoDB For PHP Before diving into this, I recommend that you read the following related articles if you have not: The MongoDB server is built to already work with your current web server. The problem is that you’ll need to install drivers for your preferred backend language – PHP, Ruby, Node.js, Perl, whatever. I won’t go into the process of installing WAMP/MAMP because this is a bit off topic from Mongo. But there are very easy-to-follow tutorials which already exist for installing WAMP and installing MAMP on either Operating System. Note: You can still work with your MongoDB server without a web server. You can get some output from the MongoDB process by visiting the localhost address using your installation’s specific port number. MongoDB will default to 27017. This address should still work properly regardless of your local web server being online or not. Now I’m going to walk you through installing the PHP driver, and we’ll finish up developing over MongoDB’s PHP class library.
#Étude : L'économie collaborative, un marché qui pourrait peser 100 milliards de dollars d'ici trois ans L’étude « Ubérisation : partager ou mourir ? » menée par Monitor Deloitte donne de la substance à ce terme aujourd’hui galvaudé. Le cabinet en dévoile les grandes caractéristiques et livre quelques pistes aux entreprises traditionnelles pour qu’elles luttent, ou plutôt qu’elles embrassent ce phénomène. Impactant de nombreux secteurs économiques, l’ubérisation ne se résume pas qu’à un terme choc inventé par un publicitaire de renom et utilisé à toutes les sauces par les jeunes pousses qui pensent ainsi mettre l’accent sur le coté disruptif de leur idée. L’économie collaborative, un marché qui double de taille tous les 18 mois… L’ubérisation, selon Jean-Marc Liduena, senior partner chez Monitor Deloitte, c’est « le développement rapide et exponentiel de l’économie collaborative, ou on-demand, c’est le « New DIL » du 21ème siècle : Disruption, Innovation, Leadership ». Tiré vers le haut par l’innovation mais plombé par la réglementation
INNOKINETICS - Human Self-Sustainable innovation cultures Designing Beautiful Business — Business Innovation Design They say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. And beauty is ascribed to people, objects and situations that bring pleasure. If this is true, in business, pleasure in the eyes of the beholder is the experience customers feel when engaging with your brand. A business that delivers experiences that consistently exudes the feeling of pleasure by evoking senses of the customers' is a beautiful business. Philosophers like George Santayana and Thomas Aquinas have long explored the notion of beauty; to understand what constitutes beauty, as it is, by itself. A 13th century philosopher, Thomas Auinas stated that beauty has three qualities: integrity, harmony and radiance. Businesses that seek to gain competitive advantage through value differentiation need to be aware of the qualities of beauty and apply design principles to guide them on designing strategy and management to deliver differentiated offerings and experiences to customers.
