CRM vs. CMR – What is CMR and what are the differences against CRM? Should (or can) they co-exist?

The customers are the center of attentions in all companies. Without them any business can’t grow. And the current economic climate they, the customers, are the master key in the company’s growth.

Customer Relationship Management is a great tool to predict what the customer needs, but this paradigm is changing because the new concept of Customer- managed relationship. This new concept takes us to social network world where customers can perform comments about services and products offer by companies. Businesses can take advantage with these two approaches because they can perform several tests about new services and products and register the opinion.

The decision-making driven by big data is now being widely recognized, and there is growing enthusiasm for this notion, which has taken companies to develop the skills required for data scientists.

Digital Era improved analytics and increased connectivity through new technology, which results in an explosion of the amount of data. Through better analysis of large data volumes that are becoming available, there is the potential to make advances in many scientific disciplines and improve the profitability and success of many companies.

It allows the combination of two or more sources to generate an insight unavailable from just a single stream of information, which provide valuable information for the most different areas.

6 Tips for Better Work-Life Balance

Wednesday, 28 June 2017 by ricardo.santos@winning.pt

These days, work-life balance can seem like an impossible feat. Technology makes workers accessible around the clock. Fears of job loss incentivize longer hours. In fact, a whopping 94% of working professionals reported working more than 50 hours per week and nearly half said they worked more than 65 hours per week in a Harvard Business School survey.

Experts agree: the compounding stress from the never-ending workday is damaging. It can hurt relationships, health and overall happiness.

Work-life balance means something different to every individual, but here health and career experts share tips to help you find the balance that’s right for you.

 

  1. Attitude is everything

No matter how much you love your job, no matter how big a part of your life it is, ultimately you need to be able to “turn it off” and spend some time not working. This is hard for a lot of people, because their work is…

Wednesday, 28 June 2017 by ricardo.santos@winning.pt

“We live in an age of unprecedented opportunity: with ambition, drive, and talent, we can rise to the top of our chosen profession regardless of where we started out. But with opportunity comes responsibility. (…) That means it’s up to us to carve out our place in the world and know when to change.

Requirements without users

Wednesday, 28 June 2017 by ricardo.santos@winning.pt

Conventional wisdom and best practices tell us that end users and other stakeholders must be involved in IT application and other product requirements definition. In traditional mode, the involvement is before design and development. With an Agile approach the users must be an integral part of the project team.

“What to do when users are not available?”

Can you wait for them to get on board the development train? That might take a long while and delay a project that can provide significant benefits to the organization.

Can you force them to get on? That might get you started, but, as soon as they can or must they’ll jump off and your project will be delayed. Sometimes they will even derail the train.

What if you just start without them? Radical and risky you might say, though it might be the best way to get moving and deliver a useful product in the shortest amount of time. Think of a requirements-without-users approach that is like prototyping. A prototype can be developed based on minimal requirements and then refined until the product is ready for production use.

This approach requires that the following conditions are met,

1) you have a window of opportunity to make use of development staff that might not be available later,

2) your users and sponsors are open to getting engaged later in the process (ultimately they must get involved)

3)your sponsors and senior user management are…

Value Base Selling

Wednesday, 28 June 2017 by ricardo.santos@winning.pt

When an aggressively price war breaks out reducing margins all over the market, it may be perceived as marketing strategy, however this could lead to costly and unexpected repercussions.
To stand above the competition, without recurring a competition based in price, worldwide organizations are searching for distinct way of providing value not only to their customers but also without compromising its own sustainability.

Nowadays, the concept of value-based selling has become a major concern of analysis.
In his book, Tom Reilly (2003) address a theme regarding the challenges that managers face nowadays – compete aggressively and profitability, not just competing in price but selling superior value.
Moorman, Ruddell, & Sims (2013) defended that the pursuing of value-based selling (VBS) approach will differentiate winners from losers in business-to-business markets.
Despite this, there is a need to investigate and conceptualize the implementation of a solid VBS approach in an organization and its sales force, in order to improve the customer orientation behavior and the search for, always, creating and offering…

SCRUM To Win

Wednesday, 28 June 2017 by ricardo.santos@winning.pt

“It is not on requirements”, it has become one of the quotes most spoken by project managers these days. This approach is typical of a Waterfall project management model. For those who do not know what it is, the Waterfall model, assumes that before starting any kind of development in the project, all requirements must be perfectly closed, and accepted by the customer.

It is therefore a linear process, first requirements are defined, then a work breakdown structure (WBS) is created, project team draw up estimates for the tasks to be performed and finally the project manager builds the project plan with tasks, durations, precedence’s, allocates resources and calculates when the project will end. In a very simplistic way, this is what happens in a typical waterfall project. This type of model is very useful in projects where the requirements are unlikely to be changed (for example the construction of a bridge), or where the success of the project is defined by completion of all scope.
However, today I like to write about software projects. There are critical software projects (software from a nuclear power plant, or software of a spaceship of NASA), but the vast majority of the software produced it´s not critical. On most of the times, the requirements are changed as the project is progressing, either because the business or the market has evolved, or some requirements are no longer necessary. The software lifecycle is decreasing, changing constantly, and…
