Episode 20: Jeff Goodhue Date: 27 December 2022 Hosted by: Jimmy Hewitt, Sr. Automation Advisor, sponsored by Salient Process  Guest: Jeff Goodhue, Americas Technical Sales Leader for Business Automation at IBM   Our host, Jimmy Hewitt, sat down with Jeff Goodhue, Americas Technical Sales Leader for Business Automation at IBM to discuss the evolution of Business Automation. You will hear about the significant development within systems, people, and processes overtime. The two also discuss uniting the business side of an organization with the technology side, and all that entails. From planning and setting a baseline, to finding the right balance of analysis, you will hear ample advice on how to unite the business and IT as one entity!   “People are learning how to be smarter than themselves.”   “Let’s also automate the things that are pretty repetitive. But then let’s also bring in some of those recommendations and natural language so that when they move to a newer task/an interesting task, there also supported by that too.”   “It could be the most beautifully architected system design your humming along, with containers and event driven architecture, but it you aren’t improving a metric, a KPI, then the business is never going to sign off on it. And likewise, if the architecture diagram, design, integration flows, information security hasn’t been properly designed then it’s never going to get off the ground with IT. So, that makes a ton of sense in terms of uniting the business with IT early and often. Focus on discovery and metrics.”   “The business is much more likely to involve themselves, feel ownership, move forward with the solution, and continue to improve overtime if they see that time to value. So, involve them early and often.”   “Mining is not only helpful on the upfront process discovery establishing your baseline, but it also helps with the continuous monitoring of that baseline after you’ve implemented your automation.”   SUBSCRIBE NOW 👉Subscribe to Bots & Thoughts: The Hyperautomation Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Spotify Here 👉Subscribe to our Apple Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Google Podcast Here   ⏩Subscribe to Salient's Monthly Newsletter Here  🎤Be our next guest!

Episode 19: Automation meets Risk Management with Ram Naidu Date: 13 December 2022 Hosted by: Jimmy Hewitt, Sr. Automation Advisor, sponsored by Salient Process  Guest: Ram Naidu, Head of Control Evaluation for Consumer Lending for Wells Fargo   Our host of Bots & Thoughts, Jimmy Hewitt, sat down with Ram Naidu at the OPEX (World Annual Operational Excellence & Business Transformation Summit) conference in Orlando, Florida. Ram is a business leader who has spent his career in consumer lending, specifically responsible for managing risks and controls. Consumer lending is a highly regulated space; therefore, the stakes could not be higher regarding managing risks and controls. In addition, the sheer volume alone at Wells Fargo requires the sophisticated application of automation to manage risk and controls at scale. Listen in as Ram, Head of Control Evaluation for Consumer Lending at Wells Fargo, tells his story, talks you through his methods, and lends you his perspective on applying automation for risks and controlled management for one of the largest banks in the world!    “Companies that have really good risk management practices also tend to have very good operational excellence practices, and they tend to be more proactive.”   “Process map everything out. You want to identify your stakeholders, your customers, your handoffs, your dependencies, and then basically identify where your risks are. And then ultimately decide whether you have controls in position or if there are gaps where you need to design controls so that you can actually then monitor those controls.”   “Across the industry…we still have a lot of opportunity to automate data.”   “Most of the time it’s really not about the risk and controls, it’s about the process. It’s about the customer. It’s about the businesses.”   “We want to be partners with the business leaders and their teams so that we are, again, using that reactive-proactive analysis. We don’t want to be reacting to what is on paper, but we want to be proactive and actually raise our hands and lead from the front and help our partners.”   SUBSCRIBE NOW 👉Subscribe to Bots & Thoughts: The Hyperautomation Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Spotify Here 👉Subscribe to our Apple Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Google Podcast Here   ⏩Subscribe to Salient's Monthly Newsletter Here  🎤Be our next guest!

He founded VMWare’s Process Discovery and RPA Practice, and he is now leading productivity at Experian! Tune in for his insight on Operational Excellence, Scaling Beyond RPA, and more!     Guest: “I think operational excellence is…it’s culture, it’s enablement…empowerment of giving people the ability to make decisions and execute against them themselves.”   Guest: “Give people the room to learn or fail fast and quickly and try things until they figure out a way to do it better.”   Guest: “Process Improvement is like personal training for business.”   Guest: “Play to the strengths of the individuals that you have and their skills and their passion and then start to incrementally develop their skills to help them to get even better at what they love doing.”   Guest: “You want people in your organization talking about methods and tools the way you want the consumers of your products and services talking about your products and services.”   Host: “I'm recalling some clients who were a little skeptical about bringing, say, a bot in or workflow app in, or even approaching continuous improvement. But once we took out the worst part of their day, it wasn't a quick win; it was an immediate impact.”   SUBSCRIBE NOW 👉Subscribe to Bots & Thoughts: The Hyperautomation Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Spotify Here 👉Subscribe to our Apple Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Google Podcast Here   ⏩Subscribe to Salient’s Monthly Newsletter Here  🎤Be our next guest!

They just maybe don’t have the way of presenting it. So, we sit, we map what we have, we show the difference in what [the employees] want to do, and we run it by the leadership and [hear] ‘Mmm that’s a great idea.’ It’s the small things…We do the small things. We make the little guys happy, and when they’re happy, they do their best. They give their 200%....and we all win.”   Guest: “I think sometimes we are short-sighted. We just concentrate on the money because you’re going to put this Band-Aid on, but you’re never going to fix the problem in its depths.”    Guest: “It’s a lot of money as a non-value-added penalty…and in the frustration… that’s what’s also intangible to quantify, but it’s amazing for the people.”   SUBSCRIBE NOW 👉Subscribe to Bots & Thoughts: The Hyperautomation Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Spotify Here 👉Subscribe to our Apple Podcast Here 👉Subscribe to our Google Podcast Here   ⏩Subscribe to Salient’s Monthly Newsletter Here  🎤Be our next guest!
