3 years ago today, Jeffery Lyth, Brent Robinson, Todd Conklin and I published a book called "Learning from Everyday Work: New View of Safety Discussion White-paper", ISBN 979-8487526328979. In that book, we explore gaining insights from the frontline. In one chapter of the book we said; "MAKING SENSE OF THE WORKER ENGAGEMENTS: We are capturing from the workers how they make sense of “the worker lens” of everyday work variability as business intelligence and insights, and presenting those activities and information in a visual representation of data “infographics dashboard” called an Operational Learning Dashboard, as a series of informational and actionable metrics. The organization then needs to be able to make sense of that narrative-based data by looking for trends, patterns of occurrence, of weak signals and the sentiment of the language used to identify weak signals. The correlation between the weak signals and the positive, neutral or negative sentiment of the narrative use by the workers provides additional insight to the “psychological safety” of the work team as they express their current resilience in the system they operate in through dialogue and group learning. If we were to think of that infographic as Jenga, we start by collecting the parts of the Jenga that have been removed and looking at the Jenga tower from all sides, even though the Jenga tower is still standing. We sort and group that information in a way that allows the information to be seen. We then present that information of trends, patterns and sentiment in a way that allows the organization to be curious and look at the underlying context to make sense of the bigger picture and take action by conducting a targeted Learning Team to learn and improve the system." We also introduced the community to the 4Ds, and since then, the 4Ds have been deployed to more than 3 million workers (that we know of). For the last 3 years, we have been deploying our 4D Work Insight App into various industries to explore and learn. Our 4D app worked by listening to the story from the frontline workers, taking "What they said" and identifying the weak signals, and then taking "How they said it" and painting those weak signals as colors of emotional sentiment (how people were coping in that work). Now, with the wider acceptance of AI tools like Microsoft Co-Pilot Studio and ChatGPT we are officially launching our offering to the market in the new year. The picture below is a teaser of our visualization approach to the 4Ds, and our "Digital Literacy" friendly app. We want this to be a sustainable solution for organizations to adopt. We will not be licensing based on the number of workers, sites, or the organization's size. Our offering will support small and large enterprises based on the number of learnings you want to gain insights from. Both quarterly and annual plans will be available as a managed service. Registrations of interest are now open. https://lnkd.in/g2yH8dzG
