Collaborated with Chris Hummel, President Green Thread Horizon Media, the #1 US Ad Agency, to develop a multi-year plan to attract new users to Talentsky through paid advertising. The objective of the partnership is to continually optimize the customer acquisition cost (CAC) relative to the revenue per user (RPU) through Workshops.

In collaboration with design and engineering led the feature prioritization and UX functionality for Talentsky v3.2. This release introduces many innovations including Top 20 Mentor and Top 20 Instructor points visible on the user's profile, Mentor Page and Workshops Page. Additionally, v3.2 provides a profile Workshop Card to enable users to view the economic value of sharing their skills to their followers.

Collaborated with our customer to improve user engagement for the Talentsky Enterprise solution. The goal for each user is to reach Mentor status, drive followers and continue to post and share their skills through Achievement posts. Secondly, each Mentor should conduct Workshops to share their knowledge with others. Available with v3.2, we created a Top 20 Mentor and Instructor points system visible to each user on their profile and to the enterprise through the Success App.

I assessed our culture by understanding the personal priorities of each person on our team. What I learned is our culture is driven by trust and providing people the ability to manage their life + Talentsky work with flexibility and personal accountability for getting the work tasks completed on time. This was an excellent Workshop led by Andi King.

Worked with existing enterprise customer to establish a program whereby they would introduce the Talentsky Enterprise solution to their customers, establish the initial pricing tier, document the sales order then support the deployment and success of the career development use case.

I learned a great deal from Prakash in this Workshop including the importance of building a data model in advance the application UX. Prakash also shared the differences between Structured Query Lange (SQL) which enables the creation relationships among data types and NoSQL which is more of a forms based concept. Also, I enjoyed the feedback and dialog from the other attendees Nick, Amber and Ryan.

At Talentsky, we have developed input field requirements including minimum characters requirements for roles or tasks for our language AI, validation checks for social media handles, credit card input validation etc. We want to make sure the UI enforces clean data input and supports the user from making a data mistake.

This was a great Workshop and I learned from Chris the best approach to creating a blog post.

After years of product development, closed of our first enterprise customer with a focus on leveraging Talentsky Workshops as an innovative internal knowledge sharing capability. With Talentsky, users post Achievements and associated skills and get them rated by relevant internal, or external co-workers or business partners. Users can then share these experiences in one hour live and interactive Workshops, powered by Zoom but beautifully integrated into the Talentsky experience.
