Wednesday Musings - Week 2: Goals and Culture, building a community
Our weekly company note to keep you abreast of the latest at Concis.
Hey guys, trust you’re well and safe. Here’s the past week’s inside scoop on Concis.
Last week was both interesting and challenging. We added 70+ strategy leaders from companies like Paypal, The World Bank, Paymentwall, Tathastu, ClearTax, Flipkart, TVS, LinkedIn, EY, Ziploan and more.
We curated and added 300+ new reports our team is working hard to transform and build summaries of, and we scratched our heads to figure out how to turn our users into a thriving community of corporate strategy leaders redefining the digital agenda for their organizations.
First up, I would like to welcome our new members!
As typical marketing wisdom says, you must expose someone to your marketing message at least seven times before they take action. Ex-LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner says this is true for any message you wish to communicate within teams or with the larger community. At Concis, stating our top objectives, announcing the decisions being taken, and the open culture we want to establish propel our approach to customer-centricity and building trust.
A sneak peek into our content factory
To help plan our content pipeline for the coming month, we debated on our list of curated reports and zeroed in on topics around fintech, digital transformation, and leadership. This week our analysts worked on interesting reports like what will it take to build a global cryptocurrency, and why the VC ecosystem is up for disruption!
The report ‘What it will take to create a ‘trusted global cryptocurrency’?’ brings key insights from a discussion between Elizabeth Rossiello, CEO and Founder of cryptocurrency BitPesa and Catherine Mulligan, Co-Director, Centre for Cryptocurrency Research and Engineering, Imperial College London. Panelists discuss the opportunities such a currency can provide for emerging economies, and what regulations fintech leaders need to prepare for in order to mitigate risk.
Coming up next week, our upcoming summary ‘Are VCs Worthless? Why Start-Ups need to go after hard things’ gives an insider view of what’s broken in the venture capital market by Chamath Palihapitiya, a venture capitalist and the founder and CEO of Social Capital. He’s previously held leadership positions with companies like Facebook and Winamp. He illustrates what it takes to build a successful technology product and how the current lot of VCs are a hindrance to the growth of startups.
Lastly, here’s a note from one of our interns working in the product team. It really sums up the effort we put into making these summaries!
“Hey Guys, on a later note, I worked on finalizing one report and it's presentation last week, it involved multiple checks and reviews and I realized the amount of work that goes into delivering a good quality report. In totality this week has been a great learning experience for me.”
