One of the key facets of the rise of the reputation economy is that reputation and influence can increasingly be measured. The rise of tools that measure people’s influence in social media channels, such as PeerIndex , Klout , and Twitter Grader , is just the beginning of a far broader shift to metrics of influence and reputation. We have compiled a list of the most influential people in Australia on Twitter as measured by PeerIndex , which is based on a combination of authority, activity,

Many of my keynotes and client workshops at the moment are to high-level business audiences such as boards of directors and top executive teams who need to understand the essence of how the business landscape is changing and the implications. While you can never capture the rich diversity of change on a single page, this framework seeks to distill the issues in a meaningful way.

Release Cycles have been debated for the last 30 years and will certainly be for the next 30. Arguments for longer release cycles with larger releases usually focus on how risky these rapid releases are and the stability and polish these larger releases with their longer cycles bring. These arguments are absolute rubbish. To add to the discussion I’ll put a different emphasis than I’ve heard before.

For many IT admins, business as usual is a juggling act. Job schedulers and scripts run on autopilot, applications and operating systems can’t speak the same language, and other tools—like RPA or MFT solutions—operate in isolation. On a good day, everything runs smoothly. But good days are rare; more often than not, something goes wrong and you’re stuck putting out fires.

As organizations scale, keeping employees connected, engaged, and productive can seem like a monumental task. But what if AI could help you do all of this and more? AI has the power to help, but the key is implementing it in a way that enhances, rather than replaces, human connection.

I saw Connected: The Film by Tiffany Shlain last night at its Australian premiere, organized by Annalie Killian. The first thing I have to say is that the film is absolutely fantastic. It nails how we as humans live an intensely interdependent world, and how our recognition of and response to that will determine our future. I think the more people that see it the better, so I dearly hope it will get a healthy – or even massive – audience.

This definitely counts as big news. Osama Bin Laden is dead after over a decade of trying. Interestingly, in many news outlets the fact that the news leaked on Twitter before President Obama’s announcement to the nation almost rivals the news itself.

For example, Nielsen highlights the fact that 25% of people are using their portable gaming consoles less after having bought a tablet.
