Individual contributors gain relative importance as management layers shrink.
#321Robert Scoble@SCOBLEIZER@signulll I'm using several that do this, but mostly like the new Timeglass:
It watches everything I do on my screen and that go through my email, calendar, and other systems, and shows me what I've done, and what I need to do. Very useful.
Robert Scoble@ScobleizerThe fast-growing area of AI work intelligence platforms. @IrenaCronin and I write this newsletter every week. AI work intelligence platforms can make work easier by helping companies track priorities, follow-ups, project progress, and important context that might otherwise get lost. Their biggest challenge is privacy. These tools can be useful, but they can also feel invasive if employees think they are being watched too closely. They will only succeed if companies use them with clear rules, transparency, and trust. I'm using the new Timeglass, which we feature, and it really is awesome for showing me what I've done, and what I need to do, with my team. Read and subscribe at https://unaligned.io

Mo@atmoio"I don't think people managers will have any value in the future." Airbnb CEO said on a recent pod the people most screwed by AI will be people managers. Perhaps we had this all wrong. The future belongs to ICs. There is now more use for them than ever before.
