7/ If someone reported a vulnerability to your organisation today, would it reach the right person?

Or become a reference number that never gets issued? Have you Googled yourself lately?

1/ How do you force government to close a data breach you warned them about 15 months ago? I don't know, but I hope going public helps.

Last year I found government eServices platform leaking sensitive personal data. Certified ID copies. Addresses. Tax PINs. Funding applications

6/ Every weak link hiding as a needle in a haystack is about to learn the haystack is being burned by machines that don't get bored and don't look away.

What happens when CEOs chase AI? IT rushes to buy tools without a real strategy.

On Mondays we coach for a large insurer doing the opposite: building competence first, then the strategy.

If it is done on a computer, AI can do it faster. Add competence = both faster and better.

What drains a PM's time faster than 6 project meetings a day?

Writing the reports for each of them.

We're an outsourced PMO. Reports per customer, per project, per phase are our biggest time sink after meetings. Its a lot.

As a PM: what AI have you tried? What's working?

@Mzwakhe_M_Zulu @isabelt2603 @AdvoBarryRoux You have a choice not to vote.

@AdvoBarryRoux That editting hurts my eyes as much as his lies are hurting my ears.

@Pah_blo @Z_P_M_ @Newzroom405 It's not an engineering issue, it's a company culture issue. Eskom is addicted to urgent work instead of preventative maintenance.

You can't solve that with engineering for long.
