Episode 122: Unlocking the power of generative AI, like ChatGPT, in the workplace

What happens when organizations don’t address digital ethics effectively? And how much is possible when they do?

DWG’s Director of Knowledge, Shimrit Janes, joins host Nancy Goebel in the Digital Workplace Impact studio for their final conversation on inclusivity in the digital workplace.&nbsp;Shimrit is the author of DWG’s recent thought-provoking three-part research series, which includes&nbsp;The inclusive digital workplace: 2. Forging digital ethics.

The conversation uncovers the nature of ethics and how a dedicated digital strain is now emerging –&nbsp;&nbsp;one that’s being tested even further with the emergence of generative AI. With&nbsp;real-life examples from Oxfam and Comcast, the two&nbsp;bring to life how new&nbsp;ways of working can be nurtured in the digital workplace, with approaches and pace to benefit both employees and organizations.

In the ever-evolving digital workplace, there’s a point at which what’s possible with technology, what’s appropriate from a legal perspective and what’s preferable to a practitioner will intersect or conflict. It’s here that ethics and trust come into play.

Shimrit proposes that widening our conversations on choices, impacts and comfort levels can open up new opportunities, and assist those exploring emergent technologies in ways that are healthy.

So, for great insights along with practical and aspirational advice for moving at ‘the speed of trust’, take a listen today.

As a Microsoft MVP, Darrell Webster offers knowledge and experience in a way that bridges IT ‘know how’ with a clear understanding of user adoption and needs. In his words, the subject matter becomes his method to connect with people and to learn together with them.&nbsp;

In this episode, Digital Workplace Impact host Nancy Goebel chats with the New Zealand-based modern work mentor and podcaster. They share insights and reflections on generative AI and specifically on Microsoft Copilot.&nbsp;

Darrell talks through the necessity of understanding this new technology, what it could reveal and the value it could uncover, but also the need to prepare well and create community around its introduction. He takes listeners through his own mini-blueprint for readiness as Copilot advances into the workplace– including the idea of piloting Copilot itself.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Generative AI has the potential to spark a whole new level of natural curiosity and stronger collaboration, but might it also surface information that perhaps we shouldn't always see? Darrell shares helpful watchouts to consider, along with encouragement to explore what’s ahead.&nbsp;

If you have more questions than answers about generative AI, then listen today and find out more about preparing for Copilot in the digital workplace.&nbsp;

Your work isn’t boring – and your workplace doesn’t need to feel like 1984. In this episode we explore a fascinating new approach to employment that places your individuality at the centre; a world where you can bring yourself (warts and all) to work every day. Host Paul Miller attempts to bring his whole self (which includes his old typewriter) to an inspiring conversation with Jessica Hunt, Digital Learning Lead at Adobe, and Ephraim Julius Freed, Internal Communications Manager at Riot Games.

Episode 1: Bringing Your Whole Self to Work

The fourth episode in our series of Digital Workplace Impact podcasts covers that most popular of buzzwords in digital workplace and collaboration circles – working out loud (or WoL as it’s often shortened to). To debunk the myths and help us get to grips with the practice of working out loud we’re joined by two pioneering female leaders in the tech space – Isabel De Clercq, Trendcatcher, Firestarter and Sparkle Architect at Kluwer Training, and Kelly O'Conor, Service Manager for Digital Workplace at Bank of New York (BNY) Mellon.

Episode 4:  Is it Really Noisy Working Out Loud?

Often, passion comes with devotion, drive and a determination to achieve great things. The questions we explore in this episode are what sparks a passion for work in someone and how can you harness this extraordinary energy to create a successful digital workplace experience? Linda Tinnert, an ardent fan of internal communications and responsible for internal digital channels at IKEA; and Kevin Olp, a champion of creating experiences and formerly a Director at Northwestern Mutual, have both transformed their organization’s impressive digital workplace. They talk to Paul Miller about cultivating curiosity, igniting those around them and nurturing the next generation.

As a society, we can get caught up in the excitement of advancing technology and forget to consider the repercussions. In this (darker) episode, we ask Brian Solis, analyst, futurist and author, whether work will cease to exist and how the next generation can prepare for an unpredictable future. He gives us his perspective on where we came unstuck, what’s holding us back and why we need to take control before it’s too late.

Knowledge Management (KM) played a vital role during the recent Zika crisis: the effective gathering and sharing of information by health professionals around the world had a material impact on restricting and treating the virus. It seems that, after some ups and downs for the field, KM is on the rise again. However, there is still some ambiguity over the term Knowledge Management, leading to debate as to what exactly it comprises.

To demystify the terminology, Paul Miller talks to KPMG’s Giovanni Piazza and Microsoft’s Jean-Claude Monney, who define Knowledge Management in simple terms, outline its key components and tell us how to harness its true potential for maximum results.

Episode 11: Can Knowledge Management Save the World?

Today, it is easier than ever to connect digitally with others around the world. Within the workplace, for those who sit in front of a computer, this is a straightforward task. However, how can the millions of employees who don’t sit at desks connect digitally with the rest of the organization?

Workplace by Facebook launched with a mission to connect the previously unconnected. VP, Julien Codorniou, explains how its new platform has been able to successfully connect factory workers, holiday reps and baristas with the wider business.

Oxfam America’s Neal McCarthy speaks from the user perspective to tell us how they are using Workplace by Facebook to transform the way they share information, and how these learnings are being used to help Oxfam reach the very people it’s trying to help.
