Power up your
“remote” working -
spend less time in
video meetings
Tips on digital tools,
modalities and practice
Our conversation today
 Flow – how digital transformation should feel
 Stacks in the cloud – how it really feels
 Chronic malfunctions
 Bring your teams into the flow
 Reshape meetings
 Make sense of new distributed working
Merced Group
 Two case studies
 Tips for you and teams
Brings web benefits within
SLATES, mobile, multimodal (video, voice, text), rich
experience, location
Pull not push
Subscribing, alerts, tagging, social graph
Contextuality
Immediacy of conversation - Resources, assets are in the flow.
Authentic leadership voices. Socializing knowledge – learning as
we go.
Behavior, capabilities, ethos
Transparency, networks of relationships, reciprocity, personal
knowledge curation
Empowered association
Communities of practice, knowledge networks,
crowdsourcing
Value Elements of the Digital Workplace
It’s all been there for a while, so
why does it seem so far away?

 IT project rollout focus, low or
missing business integration
 Poor or missing guidance,

Transparent creation and co-
creation of content in the flow of
work leads to new conversations and
feedback loops
Content change triggers via streams,
alerts, filters, or tags improve
awareness & accessibility
Sharing updates , expanding connections
using social profiles, brings richer context
and stronger cohesion
Visibility of work expands
knowledge collections,
invites diversity of more
inputs
GLOBAL DEAL ASSESSMENT AT
FORTUNE 500 TECH COMPANY
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Building a knowledge base around insight,
experience and understanding of the market
dynamics and successful deal structures.
9Merced Group
SITUATION & CHALLENGE
Situation
❏ A global deal assessment group’s job is to ensure the technical quality of
service contracts for client organizations.
❏ Small group with team members in varied geographies. Each member
possesses unique domain knowledge about their regional market,
competitive intelligence and deal structures.
Challenge
❏ How to leverage group insight, experience, understanding of market
dynamics, and successful deal structures for group learning and onboarding
new team members
10Merced Group
WHAT THE TEAM DID
❏ A team space in an enterprise social network environment - - members discussed
and reviewed challenges and opportunities in each market, and leveraged that
insight into regional deals.
❏ The use of social profiles - - A geographically dispersed team kept track of
growing experience and expertise of each other.
❏ A Q&A section - - important questions were answered transparently for the benefit
of the group while experts expanded on topics.
❏ A shared workspace - - competitive information and market intelligence artifacts
were placed in a common shared workspace.
❏ Alerts and notifications - - group tracked specific areas of content development
or change.
❏ Consistent tagging - - increase in searchability, identification of critical content,
observable discussion
11Merced Group
RESULTS
❏ More access to tacit know-how,
enabled group to leverage all
insights, experiences
❏ Gained greater ‘in-context’
understanding of successful deal-
structuring
❏ New team members onboarded
more quickly
❏ More questions answered, deal
project information was
transparently available
12Merced Group
RFP PROCESS
FORTUNE 500 TECH COMPANY
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Moving a complex RFP process out of
fragmented, narrow and above-the-flow
practices into open, in-the-flow processes.
13Merced Group
An RFP response is a complex, cross-functional work process that involves:
❏ coordinating project manager
❏ technical domain specialists
❏ product specialists
The process required a quick response to multiple requests for proposals from
clients but their response was slowed by:
❏ A workflow driven by email
❏ Loss of context because of poor coordination
❏ Versioning confusion resulting in poor quality control
❏ Time wasted in status update meetings
❏ Tacit know how buried in emails (problem solving, repurposed knowledge)
14
SITUATION & CHALLENGE
❏ sales staff
❏ senior management
❏ finance staff
❏ legal staff
Merced Group
WHAT THE TEAM LEARNED
❏ Shorter time to completion of RFPs
❏ Higher overall quality and accuracy
❏ Better continuous improvement through broader reuse of tacit know-how
❏ Increased visibility of team members leading to more cohesive response
❏ Collectively up-to-date through alerts, notifications
❏ Easier to track asset versions and contributions to the project
❏ Better visibility to conversations, around issues and problem-solving
15Merced Group
Digital working tips
For teams
 Norm setting - At project start take set up
collaboration and tools and meeting norms.
 Tool selection - What tools should we use to
communicate and capture project activities?
 Content connectivity - How should we tag &
distribute content so it is consistently find-
able & people receive timely alerts for content
updates?
 Co-learning and tuning - Take time at
beginning of project work and an intervals to
make sure everyone is comfortable with tools
and using effectively
For yourself
 Content connectivity Your work product
includes connecting it find-able on a
network – tagging, link-ability, connecting to
social profiles
 Info Flow - Proactively manage flows of
information – bring elements like activity
streams, tagged content into your realm of
awareness (alerts), manage alert flow to
support concentration at other times
 Co-learning - Find a “tools buddy” – build
your own capability
Merced Group
Reshape meetings
For teams
 Norm setting – Do we need to meet
regularly? Can conversational tools and
web-based status updates carry that work?
Does everyone need to be in every
meeting? Set times to allow for people to
transition into and out of meeting space.
 Razor sharp expectations - Clear agendas
published ahead of time, pre-meeting
expectations (review material) post
comments online
 Don’t call, but convene meetings – bring
attention & focus – threshold transition
especially for video meetings
For yourself
 Request norms - ask for meeting
artifacts for review ahead of
meetings and process for advance
status updates, shorter meeting
times
 Info Flow – Use digital tools to
post queries, requests for
clarification, comments in online
shared tools
 Boundaries – Establish/block
focused work time on calendar
Merced Group
Move from emergency response
mindset to 21st century norm
Develop digital literacy towards
mastery
Broaden learning networks and
contexts
Rethink old practices
Digitize your work products
Mentor digital skills building up to
leadership and out to colleagues
Not remote working but Distributed Working

  • 17. Reshape meetings For teams  Norm setting – Do we need to meet regularly? Can conversational tools and web-based status updates carry that work? Does everyone need to be in every meeting? Set times to allow for people to transition into and out of meeting space.  Razor sharp expectations - Clear agendas published ahead of time, pre-meeting expectations (review material) post comments online  Don’t call, but convene meetings – bring attention & focus – threshold transition especially for video meetings For yourself  Request norms - ask for meeting artifacts for review ahead of meetings and process for advance status updates, shorter meeting times  Info Flow – Use digital tools to post queries, requests for clarification, comments in online shared tools  Boundaries – Establish/block focused work time on calendar Merced Group

  1. Gartner defines workstream collaboration as a market made up of “products that deliver a persistent conversational workspace for group collaboration and can be arranged into public or private channels (often organized by topic). Products in this market can be used within an enterprise or become multi-party between organizations at the workspace or channel level.” Workstream collaboration brings messaging, notifications, files, bots, tools and people together to create a private, persistent and searchable digital workspace that teams can use to do their work in a transparent, effective and efficient manner.
  2. Given the over-scheduling of meetings, it’s often difficult to start in a timely manner. If one knowledge worker is in eight 1-hour meetings/day and each meeting started 5-7 minutes late, at the end of the day they would have lost 40-45 minutes of time and perhaps as much as 160-200 minutes/week. Little of this time would be engaged in effective collaboration.
  3. Transparent creation and co-creation of content in the flow of work leads to new conversations and feedback loops Content change triggers via streams, alerts, filters, or tags improve awareness & accessibility Sharing updates and expanding connections using robust profiles, brings richer context and stronger cohesion Visibility of work expands knowledge collections and invites diversity of more inputs
