This will facilitate more innovation and cooperation and ultimately lead to better health outcomes for patients, the Trust says. Read more below. #NHS #cloud #Microsoft

Tech Platforms in enterprises are great, generally they promote reuse, standardisation and speed. Social media platforms in society are bad while they started good promoting community and connectivity, now they promote products, highly targeted content and generally lower mental wellbeing. Is GenIA (ChatGPT, Meta AI, etc) destined for the same fate?

It's confusing out there for contact centre leaders.   Every technology vendor is suggesting they have the AI solution to solve all your problems.   I'd encourage you to think carefully about your customer user cases and then start assessing vendors with full knowledge of the problems you are trying to solve.   Rather than starting with vendors and working backwards.

I love #DesignThinking initiatives embracing methodology recognizing #systemicCultureChallenges for sustainability initiatives in enterprise organisations. The target Anthropologies of enterprise transformations are often a journey of #cultureTransformation. Being open enough to unpack the legacy is very very difficult for most organisations.
