In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, our automation experts discuss what went wrong with Taylor Swift’s latest concert ticket sales. In November 2022, tickets for Taylor Swift’s latest concert tour went on sale on Ticketmaster. Huge demand swamped the website during the “pre-sales” period, crashing it and resulting in considerable outcry about customer service, a near-monopolistic business, and other concerns. We are only now seeing how many lawsuits people are filing. In this podcast, we dive into this situation from a technical point of view. What if your organization manages a website that faces substantial demand? It’s not only concert tickets that can drive that kind of demand. What about the widespread use of bots , which is one point of contention regarding the topic? Join us for more discussion about the intricate dance between policy and technology in managing high-volume websites!

In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, we talk about organizational change management and how it works within your business, no matter where you are in your change journey. To other roles in a transformational project, organizational change management (OCM) can feel like a discipline on its own little island. It’s certainly connected to the rest of the project, but how? We talk with Mark Paulson, Senior Manager for People and Change in Chicago , about how OCM best practices mesh with changes in other disciplines, including agile methodology, sprint development, and new expectations in corporate culture. He also walks us through answers to questions like: How does it engage with the technical world? How do you assess an organization’s capacity for change? How does OCM adapt for hybrid or remote work? Join us as we dive into OCM in the context of your business projects. Listen Here Centric Consulting · Biz and Tech Talks 49: OCM In Context Have you heard our latest podcast?

One of the challenges that is all too common these days is being tremendously busy, which meant we couldn’t make the schedule work to talk to Hilary. Instead, another Chicago leader, Amy McJoynt , joins the conversation. In this discussion, we talk about these challenges and more. While we look back on their formative professional years, we look forwards as well discussing how we can lay the groundwork for the leaders of the future.

In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, we sit down with Modern Software Delivery expert Pete Walen to talk about using test automation to support software development. A lot of software testing is repetitive, and therefore a great candidate for some sort of automation. Automation on its own doesn’t solve all your problems, however. You need to design it around the needs of your business environment and the business solution you’re implementing. And even then, it can have surprising complications. In this discussion, we talk to Pete Walen about how to get the most out of test automation : when it works, when it doesn’t, and how to make the most of it in your particular situation. Join us for this podcast to see how test automation can support your software development project , plus a whole lot more!

In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, we discuss the various uses of Microsoft Teams as a collaboration tool and learn how businesses can use it as a full digital hub for remote and hybrid employees. The business world initially warmly welcomed Microsoft Teams due to its strong integration of chats, calls and collaboration. The subsequent pandemic and virtualization of many work environments led to an explosion of growth, and with that came many new ideas about how to use it. For those of us who may have seen Teams as a user-friendly skin on top of SharePoint, boy, is there more to learn! In this discussion, we talk to our Modern Workplace Co-Lead Michael McNett about how companies can use Microsoft Teams as a platform to enable other workflow, documentation standards and business processes. McNett also shares how your organization’s IT department can enable options for expansion. Beyond the basics, there’re also the exciting new integration capabilities of Microsoft Viva . McNett runs through the capabilities of Viva. For instance, if you hadn’t noticed Viva besides its replacement for Cortana’s daily digest, you may be surprised how much you already use this tool. Surprised or not, there are even more functions you can use. Join us for this podcast on Microsoft Teams as a platform and get your creative, collaboration juices flowing.

In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, we talk to two of our Salesforce specialists about using Salesforce Lightning to build out their own version of Wordle. Some of our more recent podcasts have touched on a hot topic in the tech world – citizen development . Now we’re talking about what a business user might want to implement within a broader platform and how difficult would that be to create? We’re looking at a concrete example of citizen development in action to answer these questions. Doug Burkhart and Shahid Mahmood, two of our Salesforce specialists, decided to replicate the word game Wordle on the Salesforce platform . Your users might have a slightly more practical objective, but maybe not one so much fun (or addicting). In this podcast, we demonstrate the demo application and examine what we can learn from it about citizen development and the use of a platform for application construction.

In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, we’re looking at how company culture can determine business success. Company culture is a common topic of discussion these days and has been for quite some time. As early as 1951, businesses noted culture as a concept, and arguably, we can associate it with earlier industrial organizations such as Ford Motor Company in the early 20th century. Much of the discussion, however, has evolved into either: Company culture is a goal of its own – basically, you should have one. Or, Company culture is important for hiring people. Neither of those relates culture to the success a company may have in accomplishing its goals, whether at a project level or the bottom line. In this podcast, we talk about how culture can impact a company's success, as well as how diversity and social media reflect a company's culture and have their own impacts. Join us to hear more!

In this episode of Couch Convos: Biz and Tech Talks, we talk to our experts about the importance of people, process and technology working together for business success. People, process and technology can combine to provide your business with a complete solution to your most complex problems. While all three of these offerings can do wonders for your organization and can make complex or challenging problems easier, combining the three brings you to an even stronger solution that will truly transform your business. While we focus on the synergy of people, process and technology in our latest podcast, we also spent quite a bit of time talking about metrics. Depending on where we were with our metaphor at any given point in the discussion, metrics were either a fourth leg of the project stool or a reflection of the stool's effectiveness as something to sit on. Join us as we dive deeper into how metrics can help the synergy of various focus areas within your business and can encourage collaboration across groups.

With brick-and-mortar shops, websites, apps and social media, companies have more ways to interact with their customers and business partners than ever before. That sounds like a situation rife with opportunity, but it's also a recipe for disaster if you don’t cohesively design the overall experience with the customer experience in mind. In this podcast, we talk with Noah Grayson about a marketing and user experience design tool called customer journey mapping. We talk about how you can employ it to transform not just the basic customer experience, but your entire enterprise.

In this episode of our Biz and Tech Talks podcast, we’re talking about how leaders need to rethink their leadership styles in the remote and hybrid workplace. It's now early 2022, and many of us thought we'd be back in the office full-time by July of last year. It seems we were wrong about that! But what we weren’t wrong about is how many people enjoy working remotely. In fact, according to the Qualtrics Future of Work in 2021 Report, 80 percent of us like doing work - at least some of the time - from somewhere besides our offices. Permanently adopting a remote or hybrid workplace strategy will be a big change for all of us with a different kind of change for managers, executives and leaders everywhere. We can’t expect to be in the same place, seeing the same motivational posters on the walls, and hanging out in the same break room to keep us connected and visible. It takes more than that. In this conversation, Larry English, president of Centric Consulting and author of "Office Optional: How to Build a Connected Culture with Virtual Teams," talks about what's needed to lead and develop people in this new environment.
