- Hello, I'm Paul Michelman, Editor in Chief

of MIT Sloan Management Review

and I am here with Mark Cotteleer,

Research Director from Deloitte.

We are in an airplane hangar in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

We're here to introduce a new video series

on an emerging technology called the digital thread.

Like 3D printing and lean manufacturing,

digital thread is an innovation

born of a very particular manufacturing context

but one that has, we believe, ramifications

that will cross industry, cross organizational function,

and even cross individual roles within organizations.

Mark is going to lead us on a journey

of exploration of digital thread,

one that will help us understand

how the technology works, what its uses are today,

and where it may lead organizations in the future.

Mark, thank you, and let's begin the journey.

- It's terrific to be here, we are in an airplane hangar,

we're at One Aviation in Albuquerque

and One Aviation makes an aircraft

that they call a very light jet,

we've got one behind us, this is an Eclipse 550,

so it's an example and we are going to go

on a journey to think about how is this jet designed

and tested and actually put into the air?

And we're going to do that

by following a very particular part,

this is called a bell crank,

and it actually lives in the nose gear of this aircraft

and, of course, the nose gear's pretty important

if we want to, oh I don't know, take off and land

and so we want to make sure that we get it right.

So, what we're going to do is use this as our device

to follow the digital thread which exists in four stages,

so, we've got scan, design, and analyze.

We've got build and monitor.

We've got test and validate

and we've got deliver and manage.

- So, for the novices among us, including me,

digital thread is basically

the reconceived value chain of this part,

is that correct?

- Yeah, I think that's a good way to think about it.

We can refer to the digital thread as a technology

but we can also recognize that it's a technology

made up of technology, so, at Deloitte we talk a lot

about building an ecosystem, right?

We recognize that it's hard to do things alone.

There's lots of different dimensions

to the problems that we're trying to solve.

So, we're going to look at a whole bunch

of individual technologies and we're going to

use the concept of the digital thread

to recognize that there's an integration here

that creates a process through which we

achieve this higher level of let's call it value,

that we're seeking.

- So, our viewers from manufacturing, I think,

will intuitively understand why this is such

an important innovation.

I'd love to kind of just raise this up

and do what we call a head fake

in the editorial world and just give people

kind of an indication of where this story may take us

in terms of the ramifications for how we think

about process and organizational structures

that will emerge from digital thread.

- Yeah, well, in order to think about that,

I think you can go back to the lean example, right?

Where we saw lean manufacturing

emerge from a manufacturing context

but then it over time took on a life of its own

and sort of evolved into a concept

that we can apply to service settings,

to all different kinds of settings,

and we think the digital thread

can be very similar to that because

we go back to that idea of ecosystems,

to the recognition that there are lots of technologies

that organizations need to figure out

how not just to integrate but then to weave

into a business process that allows

them to achieve their value proposition.

- Great, thank you, Mark, I look forward to the journey.

- It's going to be a great trip.

♪ Blame your kiss as sweet as a kiss can be- ♪

>>> I was diagnosed with PTSD, just having a hard

time emotionally mentally. I was, I had been

traumatized a couple of times by different things.

I said I'm not going to continue with this.

There's no reason for me to continue to live,

because I have no reason to. I want out.

>>> A large number of veterans struggle with

post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic

brain injury. Music therapist Concetta Tomaino saw a

way to use her expertise to help them recover.

We visited one of her weekly healing music programs and

spoke with some veterans about their experience.

>>> In the beginning when we started the group it

was a true music therapy group. It had allotted

therapy golds, working on self-regulation, emotional

resiliency, trust of other people. But it's really at

this point a way of supporting their self expression,

their creativity, and giving them a purpose to get out

every day and to be part of the community.

>>> I was really sad. I had nothing and the music

just ignited something and the people.

♪ [ singing together ] ♪

>>> A person with PTSD is sort of bombarded by a lot

of different thoughts and intrusions about their

safety and about their belonging and it can cause

some people severe anxiety. It becomes

something that's sort of ringing in the back of

your head. You know am I safe? Is this ok? Am I in

a safe place? you know how can I be sure? let me make sure.

Or just a lot of avoidance of different things.

>>> There is often a real detachment between their

feelings or the ability to really be in touch with

their feelings. And can heal or you can't recover,

if you don't know whether what it is that's blocking you.

And so many times those emotions that are

inherently expressed in the music can be used as a

catalyst for discussion and bringing those

personal feelings up to the surface.

>>> I think the best way to find out if there's

something wrong with you is admit you have a

problem. Face the idea that you're not there

anymore, that was in the past. So long as you know

that when you hear firecrackers for Fourth of

July it's going to bring it back. But you know what it is,

you know how to deal with it.

♪ I see clouds of blue- red roses - ♪

>>> You might not be cured never put you always can

always treat it and you can always act if you

don't let it beat you. You beat it see. And music

help me to fight it, I know this.

>>> We saw memory improvements, we saw

attention improvements control over emotional

regulation which is big, being more tolerant of others,

which is big, so all of those kinds of gradual really

slow little steps of improvement that over time became

major steps of recovery. Even if somebody misses a

session the other participants will call them up to see

how they're doing it's that kind of it's grown into that

kind of support system.

>>> All I can think now is that life is worth living

sometimes. You just have to find the right connection.

Like right now, I'm not connected with my family

at all, but there's an ember in my heart for

myself and other people.

Studying Horsepower in the Digital Age – University of Alaska Anchorage - Duration: 3:00.

I really like fast cars. Yep, I guess that's really what caught me

onto this automotive track. Built my first engine when I was a sophomore in

high school, and I put it in my own car and won a

car show with it. For Christmas, I was getting car parts instead of toys and

video games. That's pretty much how it went! My name is Justin Gentz. I'm studying

automotive technology at UAA in the GM ASEP program.

I've learned more here than I have my entire life put together just in one semester. It's really been

eye-opening. I didn't know there was so much technology that went into vehicles.

In high school, I was working on vehicles from the 80s and 90s because that's all

I could afford - that's all we did. Now we're working on 2015 to 2018 vehicles and

just the whole system is completely different.

Everything is computer-related nowadays and you really need to know electrical

and theories and operations for everything. When I started with Intro to

Auto, only like three kids in the class have ever done an oil change,

so they come in knowing nothing, really, and like right now they know quite a bit

and they're assembling engines themselves. The teachers and faculty are

all willing to help you out. Even if they're not the teacher for the class,

they will stop what they're doing and come help you.

I was raised in Alaska since I was in fifth grade. My brother did the program here with Mr. Marshall, same

teacher. And my Wasilla High School teacher, he highly recommended their own

Marshalls class because it's - I think it's the best in the state, actually.

Probably anywhere. How else would you get a 2016 Corvette donated by

GM? So that thing's pretty fun, too. That thing's loaded.

Making the Most Out of LinkedIn – Enhancing Your Digital Resume on LinkedIn - Duration: 4:24.

What's up Fish Fans!

My name is Marcus.

You're watching Marketing Madness, the Blue Fish vlog!

Our goal is to address common questions that business owners may have about marketing,

sales, and business.

In this episode I'm going to give you seven tips for making the most out of LinkedIn

Many of our clients, friends, and business associates are overlooking LinkedIn.

I know it is not as dynamic as Facebook, and can you believe they do not even offer stories

like Instagram!

However, LinkedIn is still a significant platform and should probably not be ignored.

Your LinkedIn Profile serves as your digital resume, accessible to all.

Tip #1 Personal Profiles We think many of you are missing the boat

if you are not active on the LinkedIn Platform.

You may even need to pay for the premium membership.

With this access, you can see every user that looks at your profile.

It is amazing how many people go and look you up after meeting them at a networking

event.

Knowing this profile view could potentially lead to a business relationship, wouldn't

you want to put your best foot forward.

Shoot for 100% completeness of your profile.

Add new skills, achievements, and examples of your work.

Publishing articles is a great way to establish credibility in your space.

Tip #2 Company profiles Next, let's ensure that you have created

a page for your company.

Take the same amount of time to fill in all the details and try to have your profile shooting

for 100% completeness.

Your Company Page should offer ample opportunities for prospective customers to learn more about

your company, the people who work there and engage with relevant content.

Tip #3 Define your audience and goals As with any marketing related objective, you

should have clear-cut goals.

Think about what your goals are going to be on this platform.

Are you looking to make new connections and build relationships, generate new leads, raise

brand awareness, or all of the above?

Once you have this in mind, your goals will be easier to accomplish.

Let's say that your company manages social media accounts.

A great way to establish credibility is to create conversations around successes you've

seen or experienced.

People are always looking for tips, tricks, or hacks.

This is a great place to share them.

Tip #4 Optimize your company page for search An effective company page has an audience.

Whether folks are searching on LinkedIn or not, a well-optimized page can help gain visibility.

Your company pages are designed to be SEO friendly.

Make sure to hit on the following points: Insert keywords into your description, link

to your company page, and share relevant content.

Tip #5 Add company page followers When platform users follow your company page,

your updates appear directly in their LinkedIn feed.

So the idea, like other platforms is to have a good following so that your reach is extended.

Here are some tips for adding followers: Start with your employees.

They are your biggest advocates.

Make sure they follow your pages and share your updates and content.

Ask them to like, comment, and tag on any posts made to the company page.

Next, promote your page offsite with your email signatures, newsletters, and blog posts.

Anywhere you put out content, add a link to your LinkedIn profile.

Tip #6 Publish engaging content LinkedIn loves when people publish original

and engaging long form content.

Think about the knowledge you own that your targeted prospect would find valuable.

This is where relationships can be formed.

While it can be tempting to push your product or offering on these platforms, don't.

Tip #7 Consider Promoting your best content When you create and publish an update that

is getting a good response, that usually means the market is finding your content valuable.

A good tactic here is to promote this post.

If your current followers find this material useful, chances are this is an excellent time

to capture more of the market, being it highly likely that others will engage as well.

Well, that's a wrap for this week!

Future of work is in digital skills and keeping them updated - Duration: 8:05.

Hello! My name is Esa Riutta from Wistec Training

and I'm here to talk about the important role that digital skills play in our lives and how to acquire and maintain them.

The future of work is hard to predict, but one thing seems to be very certain: the work of the future will require digital skills.

Work that doesn't currently require digital skills will change to require them – and this has already happened to many lines of work!

Each of us should be at least a bit skilled in using IT, no matter what we do for a living.

Digital skills are present in most lines of work. For example, a lot of blue collar work has digital elements

such as tracking work hours and using digital means to communicate.

In office work, digital work is everywhere, we calculate, present and communicate more digitally when in no other way.

Even creative work requires a great deal of digital world know-how, in for example, self-promotion which is now very network-oriented.

And even in agricultural work, there is a lot of planning and analysis that now requires digital tools.

The lack of abilities in this area means in practice that a person can not participate in today's work

and their ability to participate in any line of work deteriorates day by day.

Lets look at it like this:

if for example 50% of the work currently requires digital skills

ten years later the same figure will be 50% + X and X will hardly be a very small number. In all likelyness, it'll be all work that requires digital skills

Work that does not have a digital literacy requirement is dissappearing

and thus inability in the subjects is becoming more and more dangerous to the individual's ability to participate in our society.

This is also considerably expensive.

One study from 2012 showed that the lack of digital skills in the Netherlands costs almost 20 billion euros a year.

Another study in Greece showed how inadequate spreadsheet skills can cost over EUR 500 per employee per year

And for employees working with databases the cost was actually over EUR 1 000 per employee.

That's why digital skills are so terribly important.

Digital competence does not come from scratch.

The generation that was born in the 21st century called the digital natives is often perceived as digitally skilled

but the situation is not that simple.

In reality the youth that grew up with the Internet mostly has skills that are badly suited for work.

They face many of the same learning needs as their as their parents – just from a slightly easier starting point.

Digital natives know how to use web services, but they often lack many of the same skills as their parents.

For example, the ability to build and format documents or presentations, calculating and analyzing data, promoting content online

These are all things that digital natives know surprisingly little about.

In addition to this, digital competence needs to be maintained.

Software applications are changing or replaced completely with new ones, with new ways to work and paradigms rising and falling.

Updating skills is at least as important as knowing the basics.

Maintaining and improving your own skills is perhaps even the most important part of digital competence.

Learning and updating digital skills requires work.

With basic and expert skills, the best method for learning outcomes is personal face-to-face training and study.

In this way, problems with basic skills can be rectified and supplemented.

With expert level know-how there often is critical information that needs to be internalized and so concrete teaching is an effective method.

However, in modern learning, a significant part is maintaining and updating skills that people have already acquired.

With a good online learning environment, the student can choose the study the topics they need

and pick the parts that they have difficulty with or don't know enough.

They can skip things that are already familiar to them and thus not waste time or energy needlessly on familiar topics.

Online learning therefore supports the learning that has already begun

giving the most to a a student who already knows what they wants.

The key here is self-guidance;

the more the student can guide themselves, the better the results for learning online.

E-learning is also well suited to supplement traditional classroom learning.

Once something is taught in a traditional classroom, the student will eventually start to forget it if the learning isn't reinforced.

Here, e-learning is strong.

A student first learns the basics in class, and the practices and brushes up their skills online.

This approach achieves the best learning outcome.

With digital skills, e-learning is a particularly good environment:

a digital platform is a natural place for learning digital skills.

For this reason, online learning is better for learning digital skills, compared to dance or welding, for example.

Learning online is a new phenomena.

Two decades ago, I briefly studied neuropsychology, and that was then supported by using a new online learning tool called

Future Learning Enviroment 2.

It was mainly used to discuss project work, and not used to distribute materials for example.

That was two decades ago, which is actually really a pretty short time in these matters.

Since then, I've used quite a few online learning enviroments and have participated in developing two of them.

My own approach to e-learning is this:

The study material should be interesting, maybe even a little inspirational.

The best format for this is video, with reading materials only serving a limited number of learning strategies.

Video can illustrate and inform by concretely showing how to actually do something, showing the full step-by-step process involved.

And if there is need for something more theoretical, it can also be visualized in a understandable way.

Learning like this is great for both visual and auditive learners (those that learns by watching or by listening).

If If we add practical exercises to the online enviroment, then also a kinesthetic learner (a person who learns by doing) is fully involved.

This is the starting point with our Online Learning Enviroment Wistec Online.

I want a service that supports lifelong learning and makes updating and maintaining skills as easy as possible.

I want a service that anyone can come to and learn with the pace they want and the topics they want.

In addition, it is a platform that we keep up to date.

Courses are not set in stone, but are updated and supplemented when applications and topics change.

The world is changing, learning must complement this.

Now we just have to convince the rest of the world of this.

E-learning must be included in workplaces and in education.

It is a very important (and cost-effective) way to maintain skills in a changing world.

Some time needs to be reserved for learning, and with online learning, digital skills are easily updated and maintained.

This is something we all must get used to.

A good way to start is this: learn something new every day. It does not have to be a big thing, it can be something very small.

Every year there are is over couple of hundred business days

If every day you spend five minutes learning one new thing, that's a lot of learning once the year is done.

With Wistec Online this can be done by watching one short training video per day.

After a year, you'll have amassed many useful skills.

Take the challenge.

Update yourself and keep up.

Make yourself important and smart and help others get there as well.

Thank you and have a great day.

NASA-NSF Joint Story - Digital Elevation of the Arctic by Paul Morin and Compton Tucker - Duration: 11:12.

[Paul Morin] We're the last one for tonight. So, we're about to talk about the Impossible Project.

This is a project that required--

This is a project that required multiple science agencies

and also a Department of Defense and intelligence agency.

[You can't hear us? Is this closer? Okay.]

What we did was to use high resolution, sub-meter, commercial imagery.

So this is imagery with the resolution of about this much,

collected over a period of about five years,

to create an elevation model that's publicly available for the Arctic--

[Compton Tucker] from about two million scenes--

[Morin] with millions of scenes of imagery.

[So next slide.]

We used imagery in this case

from six satellites that were licensed to the US government

by the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency.

They're basically orbiting telescopes

but instead of something like Hubble that's pointed out,

these are pointed down.

It's pretty much the same thing.

Over a period of about four years, we took this imagery,

that was collected forty-five seconds apart,

ten gigabyte strips and and we moved about a hundred terabytes of this

imagery into a place where [what? a hundred terabytes]--a petabyte of imagery--

that allow, into computers, that allowed us to process this into high-resolution

elevation models. [Next slide.]

One of the most amazing things about this ...

the satellite constellation is their very high inclination for orbit.

They're going basically from 84 or 85 all the way around.

So, at the poles, we can see

any one location in the Arctic, or the Antarctic,

as frequently as about 15 times a day.

What was delivered in September of last year was this.

This is a 2-meter posting--so, basically the height of a tall man--

elevation model. Publicly available. No copyright at all.

It includes, you know an area that's about 20 million square kilometers.

But to be able to make up this 20 million square kilometers,

it took imagery of over 200 million square kilometers to make this.

What you're seeing here is extremely good elevation for Greenland and Siberia.

We have poorer elevation here that's soon to be corrected.

This is what's now available, public.

[Next slide, please.]

The first delivery of this information was Alaska.

In 2015, President Obama proposed this project

and we had 12 months to not only create

Alaska from basically raw imagery,

but we had 12 months to create the factory that

created Alaska.

What we have here is the next generation of Alaska that

will be delivered at 2 meter resolution in about August or September of next year.

[Next slide.]

The North Slope [, Alaska].

We can...

We've created the elevation for the North Slope, no less than six times.

Unlike elevation that we have in the lower 48,

where you only have one collection every five years,

every ten years, or maybe not at all,

we have the North Slope once a year.

That allows an investigator to go in and look at thermal karst collapse,

to look at deforestation, to look at tundra fires.

[Tucker] So for vegetation this is remarkable because you can look at the

volume of vegetation, because these are three-dimensional images that are being produced.

It also enables you to look at ice stream velocities

and many elements of the cryosphere.

You can do this year after year after year

at the spatial resolution of 2 meters by 2 meters in the XY

and a vertical accuracy on the order of 15 centimeters.

So, this is remarkable for our study of the polar

regions in the Arctic and in the Antarctic.

[Morin] And so now we get in where the rubber meets the road,

because these are polar-orbiting satellites--

because we don't need fixed-wing logistics to bring lidar in--

we can see anywhere, all the time.

In this case what we're looking at is

Yakutsk along the Lena River in Siberia.

This is an auto-generated, 2-meter posting elevation model of a braided stream

and one of the most largely, one of the most highly-populated areas in Siberia.

You can see in this elevation road cuts.

You can see deforestation and just timber harvesting.

You can see airfields, and of course you can see the buildings themselves.

[Next slide, please.]

We're, again, independent of geography.

This is the Kronotsky Gulf in Kamchatka

so actually North is this direction

and you just have volcano after volcano after volcano after volcano

and because these satellites are not just simply collecting as they orbit, they're actually tasked,

we're tasking every volcano along the Kamchatka Peninsula monthly.

So these elevation models can be laid upon one another and then subtracted.

Then you can see where the deforestation is,

where also the eruptions are.

[Next slide.]

Here's where Jim's work starts coming into play. [You want talk about it?]

[Tucker] Thanks, Paul.

So one of the really cool things, if you study the carbon cycle, is this is a three-dimensional problem.

If you only deal with the carbon cycle in two dimensions, you have no idea about volume or biological mass.

Because these data are three-dimensional, you can look at the volume of vegetation which is removed

and that translates into a weight because you have three dimensions to work with.

Here's one image from November of 2012,

here is another image of the same area from June of 2015,

and what you notice, all of these rectangular areas are areas where the boreal forest was cut and removed.

[Eric, the next slide.]

When you combine these images, you're actually able to look at

volumes of forests which have been removed.

For the carbon cycle this is massive.

This is what we hope to do in tropical and subtropical areas where the

combination of Landsat data and lidar data or SAR data.

With commercial satellite data, in the Arctic regions you can do it directly

from data at a 2 meter by 2 meter XY with plus or minus 15 meters in the vertical.

This is revolutionary for our study of the carbon cycle.

[You want to finish up?]

[Morin] What you saw before, that you could see the individual trees being

removed for the logging roads,

but now also this data is accurate enough that we can say that on this part of this clear-cut,

the trees were 12 meters tall before they were cut, and on the other side they were 20 meters tall.

So it's actually volume at that point and, remember,

we're not dealing with a Landsat pixel, which is 15 meters for panchromatic.

We're dealing with a high-resolution elevation model where the DEM is 2 meters.

[Next slide.]

Here's the scary one.

This is the Vavilov ice cap, if you go to the center of Siberia, all the way to the top,

right before you hit Canada, it's this ice cap.

So this ice cap is about 75 or 100 kilometers wide

and what we're gonna look at is a time series of this elevation model over a period of about four years.

[Next slide.]

Here's the next year. This is March 2014.

You can see a surge beginning here.

[Next slide.]

The surge continues.

[And the next slide.]

This surge completes.

That's sea level rise in action.

That's one hundredth of a millimeter of sea level rise per year.

Just from this one surge.

[And if you go to the next slide, please.]

Here's the difference.

So we're looking at these surges on a 2 meter by 2 meter pixel, year by year, month by month.

[Next slide.]

So if you're doing one end of the planet, you might as well do the other end of the planet at the same time.

Sometime this winter we'll be releasing an 8-meter resolution elevation model of the entire Antarctic as well,

a hundred thousand DEMS.

So, now,

after the Antarctic is released in about February or so,

the Antarctic will have better elevation than we have for the western United States

including California and Colorado.

[Next slide.]

[Thats it? Ok, ok.]

So, thank you very much.
