A
Hi
everybody
thanks
for
joining
hey
paul
nice
to
see
you
here.
So
I'm
going
to
kick
things
off
just
running
you
through
the
introductory
slides,
as
we
always
do
in
this
maturity
model
for
microsoft.
365
practitioner
session
this
time
around
we're
going
to
be
taking
a
bit
of
a
deep
dive
into
the
communication
competency
and
to
make
sure
that
we
can
do
that
with
some
air
of
authority
guests.
A
Our
rock
star
today
is
tara
sailor,
we'll
introduce
tara,
proper
tara
terra
properly
later
on,
but
we'll
just
get
through
the
introductory
pieces.
We
usually
do
so.
A
This
is
the
agenda,
we'll
just
give
the
overview,
as
we
always
do
just
in
case
there
are
people
that
haven't
attended
previously
and
then
we're
going
to
try
and
grab
a
picture
of
all
your
lovely
people
who
have
attended
today
so
be
ready
to
turn
your
video
on
at
that
point
and
then
at
the
end
we
tend
to
have
a
discussion.
We
do
encourage
people
to
chip
in
with
thoughts,
questions
comments
during
the
session,
so
don't
don't
hesitate
to
do
that.
All
you
have
to
do
is
stick
your
hand
up.
A
If
you
want
to
metaphorically
digitally,
stick
your
hand
up
if
you
want
to
interject,
but
our
experience
is
that
people
don't
do
that
so
there'll
be
a
session
at
the
end
where
you
can
air,
your
grievances
or
otherwise.
If
you
wish
equally
feel
free
to
throw
questions
or
comments
into
the
chat
and
we
tend
to
try
and
sort
of
curate
those
as
we
go
along
and
pick
up
answers
on
the
fly.
A
So
that's
what
we're
going
to
do,
let's
just
remind
ourselves
where
we
are
with
all
the
different
things
that
we've
produced
within
the
the
model.
So
far,
on
the
left
hand,
side
we've
got
our
purpose.
You
can
read
that
while
I
go
on
about
the
other
stuff
on
the
right
hand,
side
all
the
things
which
are
kind
of
properly
bold,
I.e,
not
vaguely
grayed
out
are
artifacts
which
are
already
published
on
the
the
docs
site
within
the
community
area.
So
you
can
see,
we've
got
most
of,
but
all
of
the
competencies
are
produced.
A
I'm
afraid
we
haven't
actually
finished
the
last
three
and
that's
been
the
state
of
affairs
for
the
last
few
months,
but
we
will
get
them
done
at
some
point,
but
just
just
about
two
months
ago
we
did
release
two
new
artifacts,
two
new
documents,
which
was
around
running
the
microsoft
maturity
model
workshop
and
some
different
approaches
to
that,
and
we've
published
the
majority
of
the
recordings
of
all
our
previous
sessions
on
there
now
as
well.
A
Just
to
remind
you
about
the
sort
of
the
underpinnings
of
the
maturity
model,
we
plagiarized
the
the
levels
100
through
500
from
another
organization,
as
all
the
best
innovations
do,
but
it's
really
important
to
us
for
people
to
understand
when
we
talk
about
level
100
through
to
level
500
what
that
means,
because
it
is
not
about
how
great
is
the
technology
just
because
you
know
sharepoint
does
version
control
or
or
teams
does
collaboration
doesn't
mean
that
you
should
automatically
have
all
of
those
things
turn
on
level
100.
A
You
can
see
there's
a
set
of
useful
keywords
that
help
you
think
about
any
given
department
or
team
or
process
in
your
organization
or
your
client
organizations
that
help
you
think
about.
Actually,
for
that
thing,
what
kind
of
level
are
they
really
working
at
or
we
working
out?
Have
we
got
stuff
documented?
A
Does
it
work
most
of
the
time
all
the
time
or
actually
has
it
got
some
kind
of
self-improvement
process
built
in
what
we
did
do,
though,
in
the
last
month,
is
think
about
a
slightly
different
way
of
looking
at
that
based
off
something
that
somebody
said
the
last
session,
so
I've
actually
put
together
a
set
of
like
intents
as
it
might
be
spoken
by
a
member
of
staff
or
a
manager
or
something
I'm
going
to
read
a
couple
of
these
out
to
you.
A
So
the
level
100
it's
like,
let's
just
keep
putting
out
the
fires
and
keep
the
lights
on
and
just
you
know,
keep
going
with
it
guys
and
that's
level
100.
at
level
200.
You
heart
start
hearing
phrases
like
we
should
hit.
We
should
ensure
that
everyone
should
know
what
they're
doing
we
kind
of
think
that
people
know
what
they're
doing
that's
kind
of
level
200
at
level
300.
A
You
start
to
hear
people
talking
about.
Oh
well,
that's
according
to
the
policy
and
pretty
much
everybody
follows
those
policies
most
of
the
time
and
then,
if
someone
challenges
them
and
says,
oh,
how
do
you
know
that
I
go?
We've
got
some
metrics,
we
look
at
it
occasionally
by
the
time
you
get
to
level
400.
A
You
start
hearing
people
saying:
oh
we're
doing
this
analysis.
We've
got
metrics
we're
doing
the
reporting.
We
know
this
stuff
works
really
well
all
the
time
and
we've
got
a
sense
of
when
we're
getting
exceptions
and
how
we
deal
with
that
and
then,
by
the
time
you
get
to
500,
and
you
challenge
somebody,
you
just
see
them
green
and
go
no.
We've
really
got
this
under
control.
A
So
that's
the
kind
of
stuff
you
see
in
super
regulated
industries,
and
probably
only
in
one
or
two
departments
in
those
industries,
so
that's
kind
of
how
we
thought
it
might
help
you
think
about.
Where
are
you
in
that?
And
thanks
paul?
Your
comment
was
kind
of
instructive
there
as
well.
A
So
you
can
download
these
slides
if
you
want
to
go
and
review
what
I've
just
told
you,
but
let's
moving
on
I'll,
just
tell
you
a
bit
about
the
way
we
run
these.
We
run
a
monthly
practitioner
session.
This
is
for
people
who
either
want
to
become
sort
of
professional
maturity,
model
practitioners
in
their
own
business
practice
or
want
to
introduce
maturity,
model
thinking
and
processes
into
the
organization
that
they
work
for
and
just
to
help.
You
get
a
set
of
skills
and
a
set
of
perspectives
around
how
to
do
that.
A
The
idea
is
that
we
bring
in
people
like
tara,
who
will
give
us
their
perspective,
and
often
people
like
tara
are
not
deeply
enured
in
the
model,
so
we're
trying
to
get
a
bit
of
an
outsider's
view
to
complement
what
the
core
team
of
people
like
sharon
mark
simon
and
I
have
come
up
with,
as
that
gives
real
context
and
perspective
about
grab
this
and
see
what
it
means
to
you
in
the
in
the
field,
and
then
we
try
and
make
it
a
safe
space,
we're
going
to
record
most
of
this
stuff
and
then
towards
the
end.
A
So
again,
I
invite
you
to
have
the
conversations
with
us
during
this
session
feel
free
to
feed
the
questions
in
and
by
all
means
carry
on
the
conversation
after
the
sessions
there's
a
number
of
ways
you
can
continue
to
get
involved.
There
are
other
resources
and
and
other
stuff.
A
There's
a
lot
of
things
that
we
do
community
docs
sessions,
first-time
contributor
sessions
within
the
the
within
the
community.
We've
got
yet
another
maturity
model
call
coming
up
this
time
next
month
and
that
one,
I
think
we're
planning
to
look
at
collaboration
and
mark.
Do
you
want
to
do
the
rig
reveal
of
who
we've
managed
to
get
to
come
in
to
do
this?
One
for
us.
A
Yeah,
I'm
very
impressed
I've
learnt
on
sue's
material
a
lot
of
times
in
the
past,
so
that's
going
to
be
terribly
exciting.
I
want
to
thank
everybody
who
came
along
to
the
august
event.
There's
a
nice
list
of
thank
you
lists
and
then
because
we're
rushing
through
this
to
leave
as
much
time
as
possible.
What
we'd
like
to
do
is
grab
a
video,
and
this
is
where
we
ask
everyone
to
turn
their
videos
on
david.
A
Do
you
want
to
take
control
of
the
whole
presentation
thing,
so
you
can
do
your
magic
on
making
this
work,
but
again
everyone
who
isn't
shy
and
has
probably
got
their
clothes
on,
but
you
know
that's
optional,
feel
free
to
fire
up
your
video.
Let's
see
yeah
quite
different,
get
all
49
of
us
or
whatever
it
is
on
the
on
the
call
and
then
and
then
david
will
grab
us
and
save
us
for
posterity
david.
You
want
to
do
the
the
countdown
into
the
grin
and
wave.
Oh
nice
shirt,
absolutely.
C
A
I
was
impressed
with
that.
I
have
exactly
the
same
t-shirt
and
it
took
me
a
bit
of
effort
to
get
it
as
well.
So
yeah
join
the
club,
excellent
right
and
I
think
mark
I'm
going
to
hand
over
to
you
for
the
next
slide
and,
if
you'll
take
it
through
and
pass
pass
the
conversation
into
into
terror
mode
right.
B
Well,
I
I
wanted
to
just
say
a
word
or
two
about
tara
sailor
and
why
she's
here
we
we
didn't
know
each
other
and
and
as
until
we
started
talking
about
having
her
join
this
session.
Sharon
weaver
recommended
that
we
we
invite
her
in
tara,
has
a
deep,
deep
background
in
communications
and
has
all
kinds
of
great
thoughts
about
how
the
communications
discipline
can
fit
into
the
maturity
model,
and
vice
versa.
B
I
I
was
very
impressed
terry
you
you
took
took
to
this
like
a
duck
to
water
and-
and
I
think
you've
got
some
great
thoughts
to
share
with
the
with
the
group
here.
I
also
did
want
to
reiterate
something
that
I
typed
in
the
in
the
chat:
we're
going
to
record
this
up
through
the
slides
that
the
tara
is
going
to
go
through
and
we'll.
Let
you
know
when
we're
going
to
turn
off
the
recording.
B
We
know
we
want
to
have
a
safe
space
in
this
and
we'll
we'll
make
sure
to
you
know,
ring
the
bell
when
we're
turning
off
the
recording.
If
that
bothers
anyone,
just
let
us
know
in
the
chat
we'll
we'll
take
it
under
advisement.
So,
tara,
why
don't
you
tell
us
a
little
bit
about
yourself
and
take
it
away?
B
D
And
I
actually
do
not
have
the
slides
open
in
desktop
mode.
If
somebody
else
wants
to
share
that,
that
would
help
very.
A
D
Oh,
that's,
okay,
we
can
do
it
while
I
ramble,
so
I
am
someone
who
did
not
mean
to
end
up
in
the
is
world
or
the
the
software
world.
D
I
actually
started
out
as
in
advertising,
but
as
I
started
to
work
in
advertising
and
work
in
communication,
I
got
more
and
more
interested
in
how
does
information
get
around
and
the
systems
that
we
use
to
do
it,
which
led
me
to
working
on
enterprise,
software
and
intranets,
and
really
studying
things
like
how
does
email
work
more
effectively
and
how
do
we
measure
the
effectiveness
of
internal
communication?
D
So
I
am,
I
have
a
master's
degree
in
communication
studies.
I
love
that
stuff,
so
much
that
I
went
and
got
extra
degrees
on
it
and
then
I'm
also
very
much
a.
I
am
a
lifelong
mac
user
who
has
been
won
over
by
office
365
and
I'm
actually
kind
of
office.
365
advocate
at
this
part
at
this
point
so
did
not
see
that
coming,
but
I'm
very
excited
about
it.
D
D
Okay,
oh
yep,
so
at
the
heart
of
the
at
the
heart
of
what
communication
is
is
communication
is
a
matter
of
this?
Is
the
101
there's
somebody
with
a
message
they
take
that
message.
They
format
it.
Somehow.
We
often
think
about
it
as
email
or
you
know
something
we
post
out
on
our
intranets
or
something,
but
it
could
be
meetings,
it
could
be
phone
calls,
it
could
be
chats
and
then
that
message
is
sent
over
to
recipients
and
what
this
model
does
not
talk
about.
D
Is
communication
has
to
be
understood
by
those
recipients
before
it's
effective,
so
the
model
really
is
designed
to
talk
about.
Okay
communication
is
here
is
our
message.
We
package
it
up.
We
deliver
it
to
people,
but
we
all
know
that
just
sending
out
an
email
does
not
mean
that
people
will
do
what
we
want.
D
So
that
piece
is
very
much
hidden
in
this
discussion
and
if
you
jump
ahead
to
the
next
one,
there's
another
layer
that
you
really
start
to
see
on
communication
in
bigger
organizations
or
as
we
think
about
it
in
modern
time
and
that's
the
feedback
loop
back
to
the
sender
and
that
can
be
more
formal
feedback
or
if
you
want
to
very
ripped
from
the
headlines
real
world
example.
D
We
sent
out
an
email
on
friday
friday
morning
telling
people
that
we
were
shutting
down
the
system
and
I
got
to
spend
the
rest
of
friday
responding
to
people
who
emailed
back
with
questions
about
what
was
happening
on
the
system.
So
communication
is
really
kind
of
this
two-way
back
and
forth.
That
is
happening
and
when
I'm
talking
about
communication
for
for
the
maturity
model,
I'm
really
talking
about
it
in
terms
of
more
formal
messaging,
there's,
also,
obviously,
a
lot
of
interpersonal
back
and
forth.
D
There's
always
a
lot
of
collaboration
that
we're
getting
done,
and
that
is
you
know,
you're
talking
to
people
you're
typing
you're
working
together.
That's
that's
definitely
communication,
but
it's
because
of
the
focus
and
and
how
you
go
about
it.
This
is
more
focused
on
more
formal
enterprise
communication
than
that
collaboration
work,
and,
if
you
get
into
the
next
slide,
I
think
it
is
actually
really
looking
a
little
bit
at
how
communication
can
vary
in
complexity,
and
we
really
wanted
to
make
sure
to
call
out
in
this
that
everything
is.
D
D
In
general,
though,
as
you
look
at
these
things
are
going
to
move
from
the
tactical,
simple
informal
over
to
the
more
strategic,
complex
and
regulated
and
global,
and
so
you
know,
a
technical
message
is
something
like
hey
system's
going
to
be
down
for
well
system
outage
gets
gets
complex
a
little
bit.
You
know
that.
That's
probably
a
bad
example,
but
tactical
comes
up
with
something
like
you
know.
Parking
garage
is
closed,
whereas
strategic
is
something
much
more.
D
If
you're
announcing
a
corporate
acquisition
and
you're
talking
about
the
company's
business
strategy-
simple,
you
know
here,
we
said
it's
something
like
a
system
outage,
hey
it's
down,
hey
it's
back
up
complex
would
be
really
understanding.
What
are
the
redundancy
plans
if
something
is
down
and
how
do
we
manage
it?
And
it's
not
that
you
know
it's
still
pretty
operational
stuff,
but
there's
a
lot
of
it.
D
You've
got
to
be
thinking
about
informal,
that's
very
much,
hey,
let's
send
an
email
out
and
tell
everybody
to
hey:
we've
got
tacos
for
lunch
today
come
down
and
get
some
versus.
We
thought
about
just
saying
formal
or
proofread,
but
we
realized
that
the
other
side
is
really
things
that
are
regulated
anytime.
You
start
talking
about
hr.
D
You
start
talking
about
employment
messages.
You
start
talking
about
company
earnings.
All
of
that
gets
in
anytime
that
you'll
someone
will
care.
If
you
don't
do
it
a
certain
way
that
is
really
where
regulation
comes
in
and
then
finally,
you
get
from
this
local
aspect
where
it's
you
know
a
small
group
of
people
to
something
that's
global
and
I
I
realize,
as
we
work
remote,
you
know,
your
team
that
you
work
with
may
be
in
a
whole
bunch
of
different
places.
So
it's
really
kind
of
a
small
scale
to
mass
in
complexity.
B
I
want
to
if
I
could
just
jump
in
for
a
second
tara.
I
mean,
I
think,
one
of
the
reasons
that
understanding
these
dimensions
is
important
is
we
have
a
whole
portfolio
of
options?
Right
I
mean
we,
you
know
we
could.
We
could
be
posting
news
in
a
sharepoint
site
to
meet
some
of
these
needs
and
for
other
of
these
needs,
you
actually
may
even
need
to
be
sitting
down
in
person
with
a
person
right
that
the
classic
you
know
we're
going
to
fire
you.
B
You
don't
want
to
do
that
over
text
right
and
for
those
of
you
who
are
dating
don't
do
that
over
over
text
either.
So
so
you
really
have
to
think
about
which,
which
port,
which
of
the
options
in
your
portfolio
make
the
most
sense
for
each
kind
of
communication
that
you're
doing-
and
this
is
this-
is
something
that
tara
knows
backwards
and
forwards,
but
a
lot
of
people,
especially
on
the
technical
side.
Just
don't
think
enough
about.
B
D
And
yeah
this,
I
think
you
can
kind
of
jump
through
and
go
ahead
and
load
all
of
these
up.
This
is
one
of
susan's
slides
that
talks
a
little
bit
more
on
that
point,
which
is
really
saying
that
there's
a
lot
of
different
channels
and
different
channels
really
match
different
types
of
conversation.
D
So
we're
not
in
this
one
necessarily
trying
to
advocate
for
advocate
for
this
is
when
you
use
yammer
versus
this,
is
when
you
use
teams
versus
when
you.
This
is
when
you
use
outlook,
but
all
of
those
together.
Communication
can
happen
across
a
lot
of
channels
and
the
reason
it's
good
to
call
that
out
is
actually
the
point
on
the
next
slide,
which
is
to
say
that
communication
is
the
technology.
D
Is
here
communications
technology
across
the
past
I
would
say:
office
365
is
just
a
game
changer
when
it
comes
to
the
capabilities
for
communication,
the
ease
of
how
you
can
do
a
lot
of
these
things,
the
systems
that
are
available,
the
choices
of
teams
versus
outlook
versus
yammer
versus
email
versus.
You
know
there
is
a
lot
there,
but
the
technology
is
here.
The
problem
is
the
processes
behind
the
technology
and
the
people,
just
because
you
have
a
lot
of
tools
and
a
lot
of
ways.
D
So
here
is
a
look
at
how
communication
could
look
at
level
100,
and
this
again
is
I
none
of
this
is
bad.
You
know
if
you've
got
a
three-person
consultancy
or
a
50-person
company
that
has,
you
know
really
consistent
ways
of
working.
You
may
never
need
to
get.
You
may
never
need
to
get
more
advanced
than
this
and
a
lot
of
times.
This
is
you
know,
messages
are
created
when
they're
needed
they're
sent
out.
As
you
know,
hey
head
of
hr
says:
oh
gotta
send
this
message.
D
D
Segmentation
needed
you're,
pretty
much
telling
hey
everybody
on
this
project
here
it
is,
and
you
don't
really
have
to
worry
about
you're,
usually
not
talking
about
things
with
complexity
that
you
don't
have
to
worry
about
the
project
manager,
saying
one
thing
and
the
program
manager
saying
another
thing.
So
it's
really.
It's
really
kind
of
a
hey.
I,
this
is
my
area.
D
I
know,
what's
going
on
I'll
shoot
out
an
update
good
to
go
and
that's
not
a
bad
place
to
be
it's
a
very
simple,
simple
place
to
be,
and
if
it's
working
don't
break
it.
I
think
a
lot
on
these
when
they
talk
about
sending
out
a
whole
company
having
a
whole
company
teens
channel.
A
And
just
to
sort
of
reiterate
one
of
the
themes
that
I
keep
reinforcing
is
you
know
you
might
have
an
organization
that
should
be
operating
at
level,
300
or
so
on
average.
But
if
level
100
communication
works
for
you,
then
there's
nothing
wrong
with
that.
That
doesn't
mean
the
organization
is
terrible
or
even
the
organization
is
not
operating
at
the
appropriate
level.
It
just
means
that
for
that
organization,
lower
levels
are
all
they
need.
D
Yeah-
and
you
know
you
may,
depending
on
what
what
industry
or
you
are
in,
you
may
may
need
very
complex
systems
in
other
places,
but
communication
can
be
simple,
so
so
don't
make
it
harder
than
it
needs
to
be
so
level.
Two
is,
then,
adding
a
little
bit
more
structure
around
it,
and
these
are
going
to
be
things
where
you
probably
have
shared
inboxes
start
to
show
up.
So
this
comes
from
the
development,
or
this
comes
from.
D
I
I
pick
on
hr
a
lot
just
because
they
do
send
out
lots
of
messages
in
many
companies,
or
you
know,
and
you'll
have
a
shared
inbox
that
that
is
sending
things.
You
probably
have
some
processes
where
you
know.
If
I
want
a
message
sent,
I
go
to
the
person
who
can
send
it
for
me.
I
tell
them
what
I
need
to
have
sent
they
package
it
up
and
they
hit
send.
D
This
is
still
probably
going
to
be
more
pushing
out
information
to
people
versus
necessarily
having
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
and
discussion,
and
you
probably
are
going
to
start
looking
for
vanity
metrics
here.
How
many
people
went
to
the
pa
and
we
vanity
metrics,
is
something
that
we
would
talk
about
a
lot
in
communications
because
they're,
not
business
metrics,
they
they're
the
ones
that
make
you
feel
good.
Like
oh
people
read
my
email.
People
looked
at
my
website.
People
looked
at
my
pages,
but
they're
not
looking
into
things
like.
D
Did
this
get
associate
or
get
the
people
who
work
at
the
company
to
take
the
action
we
needed?
Did
we
get
people
installing
this
new
software
upgrade
because
of
the
email,
or
did
they
just
open
it?
And
so
you
know
that's
usually
going
to
be
things
hey,
let's
send
it
from
the
shared
inbox
on
tuesday,
so
that
we
know
that
this
is
happening.
D
Then
stepping
ahead
to
level
three,
I
hope
this
is
you're
starting
to
see
how
this
is
coming
together.
Level
three
is
really
starting
to
get
standardized
around
communications
and
honestly.
This
is
where
I
I
see
a
lot
of
larger
companies.
D
Communications
will
be
something
that
you
might
have
one
or
two
people
doing
full-time,
but
there
are
a
lot
of
communicators
who
are
working
on
specific
areas
only
or
looking
at
a
specific
audience.
You
might
have
a
communicator
who
looks
at
all
your
people
in
the
uk
and
one
who
looks
at
all
your
people
in
germany.
D
You
start
to
use
things
like
surveys.
You
start
to
look
for
feedback
mechanisms.
You
start
to
have
some
rules
of
thumb
across
what
the
company
uses.
Oh
yeah,
for
things
like
this,
we
always
send
an
email,
oh
for
things
like
this.
We
would
post
it
to
our
intranet
here
is
where
you're
probably
going
to
start
seeing
some
some
checks
and
gates
around
communication,
for
example.
D
This
is
where
you
might
see.
Okay,
we
lock
down
our
main
distribution
list.
So
everybody
you
know
everybody,
not
just
anybody
can
send
a
message.
It
has
to
be
someone
who
has
some
approval
and
you
can't
just
email
the
whole
company.
D
You
might
start
to
see
some
calendaring
happening
here
where
people
say
okay,
we
know
that
there's
a
priority
happening
in
this
department
in
february
and
then
we
know
there's
an
initiative
happening
in
march,
so
let's
just
kind
of
break
up
our
schedule,
so
we're
not
trying
to
do
it
all
at
once
or
communicate
it
all
at
once
and
you'll
start
to
see
some
high-level
governance
docs
coming
together,
where
you
might
say:
okay,
this
is
our
style
guide
for
the
internet.
D
This
is
what
we
expect
so
here
it
is
really
you
start
to
see
policies
you
start
to
see
processes
and
procedures,
but
there's
still
a
lot
of
flexibility
where
you
know,
there's
a
lot
of
reacting
still
to
the
needs
of
the
business
where,
if
something's
kind
of
coming
up
you
you
respond
to
what
that
need,
is
and
there's
still
a
lot
of
people
who
are
going
to
be
more
focused
on
okay.
How
do
I
support
the
people
in
my
country
or
in
my
business
unit
or
in
my
my
program
and
oh
yeah?
D
D
A
Your
experience
for
the
organization
to
get
to
this
level
as
opposed
to
the
lower
levels,
which
are
a
bit
ad
hoc
by
the
time
you
get
to
more
mature
organizations
running
at
this
kind
of
level.
What
benefits
do
you
see
those
organizations
getting
from
their
various
communication
processes.
D
A
Okay,
so
that's
that's
an
interesting
perspective
for
me,
so
this
is
more
about
sort
of
driving
organizational
culture
and
less
about
sort
of
risk,
management
and
data
loss
prevention,
or
you
know
mr
musk
saying
the
wrong
thing
that
will
upset
the
investors.
So
this
is
more
about
that.
You
know,
let's
make
sure
that
our
people
are
getting
a
good
experience
and
communicating
well
and
we're
reinforcing
the
messages
internally.
D
I
feel
very
sorry
for
mr
musk's
communicators
that
don't
be
a
tough
job
for
sure
yeah
and
the
reason
it
becomes
a
virtuous
circle
cycle
right.
So
when
you
are
having
messages
get
to
people
in
a
better
way
in
a
way
that
they
want
them
in
a
way
that
causes
the
actions
you
need
in
a
way
that
they
they're
able
to
take
those
actions
that
is
then
going
to
support
whatever
it
is
that
the
business
is
needing.
D
So
you
know,
if
you
need
everybody
to
do
an
upgrade
and
the
message
gets
lost
in
the
email.
That's
bad
for
the
business.
If
you
need
everybody
to
you,
know
log
into
this
system
and
more
people
do
it,
because
it's
clearly
communicated
that's
better
for
the
program
that
the
business
is
running,
so
it
kind
of
is
yeah
a
virtuous
cycle
that
starts
to
build.
D
You
might
to
your
point
about
some
of
the
regulatory
things
if
you're
communicating
about
earnings
at
this
point
part
you
are
going
to
be
following
lots
and
lots
of
very
highly
regulated
pieces
same
for
again.
If
you
get
into
some
of
the
hr
benefits
things
or
or
even
a
strategic
acquisition,
you're
really
going
to
have
to
be
watching
regulatory
requirements
there,
but
you'll
probably
have
people
who
are
more
aware
of
how
to
do
that
kind
of
communication
within
the
regulatory
environment.
D
You
know
if
you,
if
you
wanted
me
to
rattle
off
employment
laws
in
the
us.
I
could
not
because
I
worked
in
hr,
but
because
I
communicated
about
acquisitions
enough
that
that
that's
something
that
I
had
experience
with.
B
One
of
the
other
sort
of
lenses
you
could
use
for
this
because
communication
happens
at
all
different
levels.
You
know,
and
some
of
the
stuff
that
tara
is
talking
about
is
communicating
from
you
know,
sort
of
a
corporate
communications
perspective,
but
one
of
the
things
that
that
we
do.
We
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
when
we're
building
intranets
is
you
know
the
site
owners
have
to
know
how
to
dedicate
they
need
to
be
able
to
communicate
what
they
actually
need
to
tell
the
organization.
B
B
For
example,
we
often
will
create
a
team
for
all
of
the
site
owners
to
talk
to
each
other,
so
they're,
communicating
well
and
they're,
helping
each
other
figure
out
how
to
do
things,
and
that
makes
them
all
better
communicators.
So
sometimes
the
levers
that
you're
pulling
are
not.
You
know,
communication
per
se
they're.
You
know,
oh,
let's,
let's
edge
a
little
collaboration
in
here.
So
the
communication
improves-
and
I
think
I
think
this
level
300
is
about
where
we
start
to
see
that
kind
of
activity.
B
C
D
Yeah-
and
I
would
say
that's
the
level
300
is
definitely
where
I
start
to
see:
communicators
as
a
developer,
see
a
community
of
practice
or
kind
of
a
best
practices
that
they
want
to
share
among
themselves.
For
the
organization,
then
jumping
up
to
level
four
level
or
400
level.
400
really
starts
to
get
into
you.
D
You
would
need
a
larger
organization
or
a
more
mature
organization
that
really
focuses
on
communication
to
start
hitting
this
level,
and
it's
not
that
it's
not
that
that
there's
something
magical
about
size,
but
it's
more
a
matter
of
really
for
internal
communications.
You
need
to
have
a
certain
employee
base
to
to
start
justifying
these
larger
programmatic
changes,
internal
communications,
it's
it's
notoriously
difficult
to
show
the
roi
on
communications,
because
you
know
they're
not
out
selling
things.
This
is
very
much
more.
D
The
enterprise,
communications
versus
marketing
or
or
something
like
that,
but
this
is
where
you're
starting
to
get
into
a
pretty
sophisticated.
D
This
is
a
pretty
sophisticated
model
where
the
communications
inside
the
company
are
being
run
with
best
practices
that
you
would
see
in
the
marketing
world
or
the
pr
world,
or
external
social
media
advertising,
for
example,
but
this
is
where
you're
really
starting
to
think
about
communications
as
campaigns.
D
D
This
is
where
you're
also
going
to
start
seeing
some
really
sophisticated
change
management
programs
running
because
change
management
obviously
involves
a
lot
of
talking
about
communication.
It
involves
much
much
more,
but
this
is
this
is
where
you
start
to
see.
Okay,
we
have
something
to
tell
people,
let's
think
about
how
we
tell
it
across
multiple
channels.
D
D
Let's
hit
everybody
who
has
reports
up
through
the
cfo,
let's
hit
everybody
in
the
com,
the
com
company
who
has
works
in
germany
level
400,
you
start
to
get
more
sophisticated
where
you're
looking
at
things
like
you
know:
oh
hey,
maybe
we
have
opt-in
or
maybe
we
run
a
program
that
is
really
focused
on
our
new
joiners,
and
this
entire
program
is
going
to
focus
on
helping
them
feel
like
they're,
welcome
to
the
company
and
part
of
it
you're,
going
to
start
under
using
analytics
to
plan
your
future
strategies.
D
So
that's
where
you
might
say:
okay,
great
stories
about
this
topic.
For
example,
stories
about
our
customers
generate
a
lot
of
comments.
Let's
run
more
of
those
because
we're
trying
to
get
people
interested
in
this
topic
or
oh,
if
we
send
an
email
at
5,
00
pm.
Strangely,
we
get
a
ton
of
ton
of
action
on
that,
because
people
are
like
looking
for
something
things
simple
to
close
the
day.
D
Let's
make
sure
we
do
a
follow-up
email
at
5
pm
here
is
where
you
also
start
getting
into
more
management
of
out-of-date
content,
level,
level,
300
and
below
there's
a
lot
of
just
okay.
What's
in
front
of
us,
let's
respond
to
it.
What's
in
front
of
us,
what's
respond
to
it
level,
400,
you
start
to
have
kind
of
the
the
maturity
to
think
about.
Okay.
What
is
the
whole
life
cycle
of
this
communication?
D
When
do
I
pull
this
content
down?
When
is
it
no
longer
useful?
And
it's
really
really
starting
to
make
communications.
D
Integrated
very
directly
to
the
business
objectives:
you're,
not
just
thinking,
let's
get
people
to
sign
up
for
our
wellness
program
or
we
need
people
to
be
aware
of
this
system.
That's
going
to
be
changing,
and
this
is
where
you're
starting
to
think
about
things
like
how
do
we
make
sure
that
people
understand
the
strategy
behind
this
launch
and
and
doing
it
in
a
programmatic
way?.
A
A
Is
you
said
at
the
beginning,
so
level
400
tends
to
be
like
an
enterprise
type
of
approach
to
communication.
I
totally
agree
with
that.
My
observation
is
that,
even
if
you
are
a
non-enterprise
scale
organization,
if
you're
carrying
out
some
communication
activities-
and
that
might
be
a
a
client-facing
activity-
or
it
might
be
a
major
change
program
internally,
even
if
you're
not
up
at
level
300,
even
you
might
still
choose
to
adopt
level
400
communication
for
that
high
impact
or
strategically
important
activity.
A
Everything
else
can
still
be
at
low
level,
but
this
thing
you
adopt
these
higher
level
processes.
You
want
to
get
the
impact
and
measure
the
impact
and
feed
the
impact
back
into
the
into
the
the
creation
process
and
go
around
around
that
loop
because
because
getting
it
wrong
has
him
has
consequences
so
yeah.
So
for
me
it's
really
important.
You
know
you
can
just
cherry
pick
sometimes
and
go
hey,
we're
just
going
to
do
really
good
stuff
for
this
one
strategic
activity
and
then
go
back
to
day-to-day
work
with
everything
else.
E
Just
so
talk
about
analytics,
but
you
know
in
sort
of
organizations
that
you've
worked
in,
do
they
measure
actually
say
you
talked
about
signing
up
to
the
wellness
program.
Do
they?
Actually,
you
know,
do
you
measure
how
many
people
have
signed
up
to
the
wellness
program
to
see
see?
Actually,
if
the
active
you
know,
the
actions
being
asked
for
happens,
is
that
something
as
well.
D
Yeah,
so
there's
a
lot
of
different
there's
a
lot
of
different
methodologies
and
best
practices
around
communication
measurement.
But
usually,
when
you
send
out
a
communication,
you
can
see
a
corresponding
bump
within
a
like.
If
that
the
action
you
want
people
to
take
is
sign
up
for
wellness
program.
Usually
what
you
see
is
an
email
or
a
message
or
a
push
will
happen
and
there's
a
corresponding
spike
in
that
activity,
and
if
you,
if
you
want
to
get
very
academic
about
it,
you
can't
necessarily
prove
that
it
was
that
email
that
caused
it.
D
But
this
is
where
you
know
business
analytics
has
a
little
flexibility
that
academia
may
not
where
you
can
say
all
right.
If
every
time
I
see
it
send
an
email
out,
I
see
a
corresponding
bump.
I
can
feel
pretty
confident
that
another
email
is
going
to
cause
that
bump
and
yeah.
You
have
to
look
beyond
just
did
that
email
get
open.
Did
that
email
get
read,
you
start
to
look
for
what
are
those
other
numbers
that
you
can
look
at
to
help
define
that
it's
doing
what
the
objective
is.
D
A
Yeah
I
was
listening
to
a
cautionary
tales
podcast
just
on
my
drive
over
here
today,
and
that
was
talking
about
an
actual
study.
They
did
about
hand
washers.
You
know
these
antimicrobial
dispensers
and
we
were
in
in
hospitals,
and
some
were
saying
you
know
you,
doctors,
nurses,
you
need
to
wash
your
hands
more
often
and
above
others
they
said
because
it's
good
for
you
and
others.
It
said
you
need
to
wash
your
hands
more
often
because
it's
good
for
the
patients
and
the
patients
one
had
far
more
impact
on
changing.
A
They
had
a
50
increase
in
consumption
of
the
consumable
in
the
in
the
dispenser.
So
I
think
the
other
point
is
that
you
did
exactly
about
that.
What
is
your
strategy?
Is
it
just
to
have
people
look
at
the
thing,
or
does
it
get
to
get
people
to
take
an
action?
What
action
you're
seeking
and
then
crafting
the
message
appropriately
and
delivering
it
in
the
appropriate
way,
whether
that's
sticky,
things
above
hand,
dispensers
or
something
else,
yeah
and
measuring
is
important.
A
I
think
yeah
ralph's
just
making
an
interesting
observation
about
there
are,
you
know
there
are
thousands
of
places
where
communications
are
delivered
within
a
large
organization
and
and
you've
got
to
think
really
carefully.
I
guess
about
what
is
the
hierarchy
of
of
impact,
as
you
say,
maybe
in
an
organization,
email
is
still
the
one
that
people
respond
to
in
my
organizations.
Actually,
we've
switched
over
to
teams
messages.
Those
are
the
ones
that
have
the
most
immediate
impact
for
us
and
maybe
text
messages
as
well
yeah.
D
And
to
the
microsoft
specific
analytics,
I
I
have
a
strong
stance
on
that,
one,
where
microsoft
really
delivers
great
better
system.
How
is
it
working
are
people
using
it?
They
don't
quite
get
communications
metrics.
D
You
might
need
to
be
working
with
a
third
party
vendor
to
get
more
more
sophisticated
communication
metrics
and
that's
actually
a
fantastic
transition
into
number
five
or
the
500
level,
which
is
really
when
you're
at
the
level
500.
Your
internal
best
practices
are
really
mirroring
communications,
best
practices,
and
it's
a
it's
really
looking
at
measures.
Message:
delivery
systems
that
reflect
user
preferences.
D
So
that's
where
you
can
start
getting
into
okay,
people
like
text
messages.
Well,
we'll
send
them
text
messages,
or
you
might
even
be
at
a
point.
You
can
let
them
sign
up
where
they
can
decide.
Do
I
want
this
sent
to
me
an
email.
Do
I
want
this
sent
to
me
in
teams?
Do
I
want
this
sent
to
me
by
text
message?
D
This
is
where
communicators
are
starting
to
serve
as
smes
on
company
initiative
teams
and
that's
kind
of
with
the
idea
that
companies
may
not
be
wanting
to
bring
everything
up
to
this
level
because
it
may
not
all
need
to
be
at
this
level.
But
this
is
where,
when
you're
planning
a
big
change,
you
say:
okay,
I
need
you,
know
finance.
D
I
t
communications
and
legal,
all
at
the
table
analytics
become
real-time
and
pretty
they
really
drive
your
tactics
you're,
not
just
waiting
until
after
the
fact
to
see
what
happens
but
you're
you're,
looking
at
how
do
wow.
Okay,
nobody
looked
at
this.
Let
me
revise
how
I
approach
it
or
that
slack
message
got.
Nobody
noticed
it.
Let
me
try
putting
a
gif
at
the
bottom
of
it
to
draw
some
attention.
D
It
can
be
very
simple
but
you're
looking
at
it
in
real
time
and
reacting
course
correcting.
This
is
where
you're,
usually
starting
to
get
into
you
know.
You've
got
a
this
is
the
look
of
our
companies
in
communications.
This
is
our
voice.
This
is
all
that
brand
kind
of
stuff
that
marketing
tends
to
have
in
place,
and
this
is
where
you've
got
really
close.
D
Partnerships
between
the
people
who
own
different
tools
like
sharepoint,
like
office,
365,
like
teams
and
the
people
who
are
creating
and
you're,
basically
working
together
to
figure
out
okay,
here's
this
thing
that
teams
does
now:
is
it
relevant?
How
do
I
put?
How
do
we
adopt
it?
How
do
we
make
it
really
good
for
for
our
company
and
again,
this
might
be
something
that
you
are
doing
for
a
specific
strategic
change
program
or
initiative,
and
other
pieces
could
be
much
lower,
which
is
just
fine.
B
Ralph
has
made
ralph
has
made
a
couple
of
points
about.
You
know
how
the
platform
you
know
does
all
of
these
things
and
tara
made
that
point
right
up
front.
You
know.
Yes,
it
does
all
those
things,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
people
are
using
it
that
way,
and
I
think
I
think
that
there
there's
always
a
lot
of
talk
about
adoption.
Let's
get
people
to
use
all
the
things,
but
we're
talking
about
it
from
a
different
perspective.
B
Let's,
let's
get
people
to
accomplish
what
they
need
to
accomplish,
using
the
things
that
make
sense,
and
so
you
know
adoption
is
important
but
sort
of
is
it
driving
the
communication?
You
want
the
collaboration,
you
want,
the
whatever
you
want.
You
know
whatever,
whichever
of
the
competencies
you're
you're,
focusing
on
at
the
time.
Sorry
to
interrupt
here.
D
No,
I
think,
that's
always
good
to
reinforce,
and
yet
there
are
so
many
cool
functions
that
that
may
not
be
support.
The
company
just
doesn't
have
the
processes
to
support
using
them
consistently,
or
I
saw
someone
mention
that
yammer
you
know
had
that
bad
reputation
for
him
long
long
ago,
and
you
know
that's
where
culture
comes
in,
you
may
never
have
a
company
want
to
use
yammer,
no
matter
how
great
the
functionality
is,
because
it
just
has
left
a
bad
taste
in
their
mouth.
