If you want to stay up on speed on developments in the AI field I strongly recommend following Silo AI. Their "Nordic State of AI" report series, underscores the rapid evolution of AI in Nordic companies, yet highlights that many organizations are still in the early stages of truly harnessing its potential. From a leadership perspective, this presents both an urgent call to action and a profound learning opportunity as there are significant industrial changes ahead. The rapid doubling of AI technologies demands swift action. From my perspective, it's crucial to move from basic AI experiments with individual use of ChatGPT to a strategic roadmap that deeply embeds AI into the core operations, ensuring sustainable competitive advantage mitigating the risk of falling behind if they don't start their AI journey soon. The talent gap and need for AI literacy among non-technical staff are clear. This (again) calls for fostering a culture of continuous learning. By upskilling the workforce and promoting interdisciplinary collaboration, we can better leverage AI and align initiatives with business objectives. Few companies have dedicated C-level AI champions or clear frameworks for assessing AI success. This insight highlights the necessity of defining clear leadership roles and strategic frameworks for AI within organizations. It’s essential to articulate a coherent AI strategy that aligns with the overall business goals and to implement robust metrics for tracking AI project outcomes. From a business psychologist perspective, this report resonates deeply with my work with management teams. The evolving AI landscape demands leaders who can navigate both the technical and human aspects of this transformation. Developing clear leadership roles and strategic frameworks is not just about technological integration; it’s about fostering a culture that embraces change, promotes learning, and drives collaboration. To develop management teams building resilience, adaptability, and strategic foresight, we can ensure they are not only ready for the AI-driven future but are also capable of leading their organizations to new heights of innovation and success.

Today I listened to a 10 year old podcast. Johan Berndtsson pointed out that it had been 10 years since the 2014 edition of the IntraNätverk conference in Gothenburg; organised by Kristian Norling - which I attended. I do occasionally listen back to old episodes of UX Podcast and it always surprises me just how much "evergreen" wisdom they contain. There are some still very relevant conversations contained in this episode. Kristian Norling wisely said "Every generation needs to make the same mistakes again" when we mused about how we were still pointing out similar issues to those from many years previously. Ten years on, that is worth being reminded of again... Wedge B. made me laugh out loud with "It's a web he says, like it's 1999" after comparing an intranet to a spider's web during our conversation about intranet content. Intranets and Enterprise UX have always been something I've enjoyed working with. This episode made me a bit nostalgic! Between 2000 and 2012 I did a lot of work with Intranets, towards the end of that time period I've moved to working more with enterprise applications - and that was my focus of the "intranet" work I did for the next decade. At the very moment, most of the work I do with intranets is helping those responsible for them measure and analyse their use with analytics. https://lnkd.in/dMdFhyxr

Fishbuddy´s new «Spots" let you search less and fish more! Spots from the Fishbuddy by Fiskher app is a brand new feature that gives anglers a new dimension in their search for good fishing spots. Now you can spend less time searching - and more time fishing. We've just launched more than 500,000 of these spots across Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands. What is it? To create Spots, we've used artificial intelligence and our already popular satellite depth maps in freshwater. With map wizard Trond Svandal and our knowledge of where fish spend their time in the lakes, we have trained our super machines to pick out good spots. Such as peaks and slopes. What they are not Spots aren't a replacement for our handmade fishing spots/fields. These are created by the best anglers and are probably the best and most accurate recommendations in any fishing app in the world today. Spots are not species-specific. However, what they lack in quality, they make up for in quantity. And together they are dynamite! In a lake (or ten) near you! The reason we have so many fishing spots is precisely because they should be accessible to just about every freshwater angler. Use Spots as a starting point for planning a fishing trip in unfamiliar waters, when you don't have a sonar or a good chart. Remember - it's not just where the dot is located - but the area around it that is the actual fishing spot. Best wishes with «Spots» and the BIG fishes! #fishing #ai

Realheart recently released its Q1 report for 2024. A week later, CEO Ina Laura Perkins participated in a report interview at Direkt Studios (Swedish). "The reason I could be here at Direkt Studios only now, is that at the time of the report release, I was in the #US visiting #cardiologists and having discussions with two major hospital systems. There is an incredible amount of interest in our artificial heart and the response when the surgeons saw all the stable values in the sheep in connection with our latest implantation was ‘Wow, it looks great, like a natural heart’,’ says Realheart's CEO Ina Laura Perkins. ❤️ In the interview, Ina Laura talks about the US visit and how much it means for future market launches there. For example, one of the hospitals visited performs more heart transplants per year than is done in Sweden during the same period. 🍀 Other interesting points are 🍀 ✔️ The second implantation with more than four days survival has been achieved. ✔️ Important and relevant feedback from the surgeons has led to anatomical changes to the heart pump so that it is now more organic and similar in shape to a human heart. It is also generally smaller. This is thanks to the realisation of being able to cross the two pumps, thus freeing up space. ✔️ Dates for implantation have been booked and work is now continuing to optimize blood handling and the heart-lung machine.  ✔️ The 10-day survival milestone remains a goal. ✔️ New laboratory data at the blood cell level will be presented at ASAIO, where the results are a great proof of good blood handling. ✔️ Unique to test on human blood, which is most sensitive, most clinically relevant and best for risk mitigation. ✔️ New chairman of the board, Magnus Öhman, with solid experience from the #commercialisation of the #pacemaker. Ina Laura Perkins sees a similar journey for the company's artificial heart. ✔️ Last, but not least, the upcoming share issue, where Ina Laura emphasises that the situation is good right now, based on a strong cash position and a market that looks good. 👁 Follow us for more updates. #ArtificialOrgans #TotalArtificialHeart #HeartFailure #Hjärtsvikt #Medtech

Organizational trends emerge regularly. For a while managers would be kind, then agile, and so on. The latest trend is psychological safety. But what is psychological safety? It seems that many people associate it with safe-spaces, that is being safe from being challenged. The originator, Carl Rogers (1902 - 1987), who also was one of the founders of the third force in psychology - humanistic psychology, wanted to create better conditions for creative thinking. Creativity means combining or melding non-related objects, or fragments thereof, into new cognitive structures (Österberg, 2012). For that to happen, a 'high mental ceiling' within the organization for people to express them self freely (challenging) is a is a necessity. Psychological safety thus means, according to Rogers' viewpoint, feeling safe to express challenging ideas. https://lnkd.in/gVuCBDtB

One chart that will change how you work if you are in #learning and development , #Leadership development och #HR. In research, the gold standard is meta studies. I just found a meta study of meta studies in Nature. What is that? Diamond standard? And the topic is what impacts behavior formation the most. The take-away is that Knowledge of the behaviour has a Small impact on behaviour change; Behaviour skill has a medium impact. The only Large determinant of behaviour change is habit. "interventions to train habits are clearly promising and, among all individual targets, demonstrate the strongest impact on behavioural change" Posting link to the study in the comments

We just checked the latest version of ChatGPT 4o on the differences between the negotiation approach of Chris Voss and Keld Jensen. Here is the insight from ChatGPT 4o. "Christopher Voss' methods are highly effective in high-stakes, zero-sum scenarios, such as hostage negotiations or situations where quick decisions are critical and trust may be low. Keld Jensen's SMARTnership model is more suitable for business negotiations where building long-term relationships and creating additional value is crucial. It's especially effective in environments where trust, collaboration, and sustainable partnerships are essential for ongoing success. Ultimately, the best approach depends on the specific negotiation context and the goals of the parties involved." I guess that sums it up pretty well!

AI is a game changer, but as with most new innovations, we often witness two clear trends: 1. The short-term impact tends to be overstated, while the long-term impact understated. 2. Small companies face challenges in capitalising on AI technology. The survey (of Swedish SMEs and their use of digital tools 2024) includes multiple questions on AI, two of which are shown in the accompanying image. We will go into more detail in the report (available in July, pre-order link in the comments). Tomorrow, Tuesday, we will have a session dedicated to AI for members of Swedish Ecom Association and guests. We will share our experiences with bot building and why everyone needs a bot. As well as the dangers not just for people in general but for small businesses in particular. It is time to start planning what AI means to your business and this session is a start.

When I decided to launch a podcast season on women entrepreneurs in Malmö the very first woman I was sure I wanted to talk to was Ammna C. Hellström. There is a joyful certainty-of-self and genuine sincerity-of-being that I deeply admire in Ammna and I wanted it to rub off on me - so naturally, our topic of discussion would revolve around her great instincts when it comes to #decisionmaking. But our conversation went much deeper than anticipated. Our conversation took us into much deeper nuances. Because that is what sophistication is: The ability to distinguish finer nuances. There's a distinction between recognizing your skills and delivering exceptional quality and having the courage to demand better for yourself and others. For women, advocating for others often feels more natural than advocating for oneself. Our discussion began with decision-making but delved into Ammna's experiences with imposter syndrome and how she overcame it. I extend this invitation for you to listen in and perhaps find parts of yourself mirrored in another woman's journey. Witnessing someone else's story can be both shocking and reassuring, knowing that you're not alone in your struggles. So, I urge you to click, listen, and immerse yourself in the experience. Don't just take my word for it—see and feel it for yourself. #confidence #femaleentrepreneur #impostersyndrome #communitybuilding #shetoldmeastory #womenwhocare #entrepreneursweden

The highlight of last week was the Presidents Summit in Copenhagen with 4,000 participants and several high-profile speakers with themes such as leadership, intrapreneurship and entrepreneurship, innovation and generative AI. So many interesting speakers and VIP talks. Among the most exciting was Dr. Frederik G. Pferdt, Google's first Chief Innovation Evangelist who has trained 25,000 of Google's employees and who believes that we can choose our own future. By turning problems and unexpected challenges into opportunities, we become better at navigating uncertainty. Such a "future-ready mindstate" requires optimism, openness, curiosity, experimentation and empathy. The Professor and entrepreneur Christina Wallace discussed how large established companies can disrupt themselves by partly building their own entrepreneurial systems that support collaboration with the start-ups that develop new technology, partly by creating an innovation culture that allows failure. When I asked about the role of intrapreneurship, she lit up and emphasized that intrapreneurs were the 'necessary sherpas' required to make big companies succeed in continuous innovation. I couldn't agree more… Thank you for this fantastic opportunity to learn and share at the Presidents Summit, Mads Faurholt. #Innovation #Intrapreneurship #Intrapreneurialcapital

Do you want to increase your reading speed by 69%? This is average improvement that participants on my reading course experience. What's even better is that speed reading is just 1 of the 5 modules, with the others covering reading habits, inspectional reading, digital and analogue reading tools, and how to create visual book summaries. I only run this course twice a year, and the first cohort is starting this week. It's 90 mins a week, for 5 weeks. Full details and tickets below.
