Microsoft published a new report on the characteristics of what it describes as a “frontier firm” leading the way into AI integration.
More interesting, the company has been collecting detailed data on its customers, which is both fascinating and creepy, like …
- Most employees are interrupted by a text, email, meeting, or chat 275 times a day — about once every two minutes.
- Edits to PowerPoint slides increase by 122% within 10 minutes of a presentation.
- Employees receive an average of 58 chat messages a day outside of typical work hours.
All of this is intended to demonstrate the significant benefits of applying AI in the workplace.
This launched a discussion between Andy Crestodina and me about what is driving AI and innovation at agencies these days. What creates a frontier firm?
In a new episode of The Marketing Companion podcast, we also cover wild ideas about what will NEVER change in human-based agencies and the increasing need to explore human purpose and meaning going forward.
