娜吉亞尤西夫描述公司新僱個員工，卻被大家所忽視；他從早到晚不做事，卻照領薪水。其實這情境常常發生──公司投下鉅資在新的科技工具上，員工卻只感到挫折而不願使用。娜吉亞尤西夫在這場有趣又實際的演說中說明，應該像對待同事一樣對待在工作中使用的技術。

So, imagine a company hires
a new employee,
a new employee,
0

4285
想像一間公司，
僱用了一個新的員工，
僱用了一個新的員工，
00:17
best in the business,
1
5036
1260
他是業界最好的人，
00:18
who's on a multimillion-dollar contract.
2
6320
2963
他的薪資合約高達數百萬美元。
00:21
Now imagine that whenever this employee
went to go meet with her team members,
went to go meet with her team members,
3
9307
4616
現在，想像一下，每當這位員工
要去見她的團隊成員時，
要去見她的團隊成員時，
00:25
the appointments
were ignored or dismissed,
were ignored or dismissed,
4
13947
2798
約好的會面不是爽約就是取消，
00:28
and in the meetings that did happen,
5
16769
1716
就算確實有實際會面，
00:30
she was yelled at or kicked out
after a few minutes.
after a few minutes.
6
18509
3167
不到幾分鐘她就被吼罵
或甚至被趕出去。
或甚至被趕出去。
00:34
So after a while, she just
went quietly back to her desk,
went quietly back to her desk,
7
22166
3524
過一陣子後，她靜靜地
回到自己的座位，坐在那裡。
回到自己的座位，坐在那裡。
00:37
sat there with none of her skills
being put to use,
being put to use,
8
25714
3348
她的技能通通沒有被拿出來運用，
00:41
of course, being ignored by most people,
9
29086
2172
當然，大部分人忽視她，
00:43
and of course, still getting paid
millions of dollars.
millions of dollars.
10
31282
2581
當然，她還是能繼續
領那數百萬美元的薪資。
領那數百萬美元的薪資。
00:46
This hotshot employee
who can't seem to catch a break
who can't seem to catch a break
11
34467
3344
這位似乎一直無法突破
僵局的大咖級員工，
僵局的大咖級員工，
00:49
is that company's technology.
12
37835
2564
其實就是該公司的科技。
00:53
This scenario is not an exaggeration.
13
41308
2855
上述情境並沒有誇飾。
00:56
In my job as a technology advisor,
14
44611
2174
我的工作是科技顧問，
00:58
I've seen so many companies
make the well-meaning decisions
make the well-meaning decisions
15
46809
3433
我曾經見過很多公司
做出立意很好的決策，
做出立意很好的決策，
01:02
to put huge investments into technology,
16
50266
2740
對科技砸重金投資，
01:05
only to have the benefits
fail to live up to the expectation.
fail to live up to the expectation.
17
53030
3664
最後的獲益卻完全不如預期。
01:08
In fact, in one study I read,
18
56718
1770
事實上，我讀過一份研究，
01:10
25 percent of technology projects
19
58512
2772
它說有 25% 的科技專案計畫
01:13
are canceled or deliver things
that are never used.
that are never used.
20
61308
4282
會被取消，或是做出來的成品
從來沒有被用過。
從來沒有被用過。
01:17
That's like billions of dollars
just being wasted each year.
just being wasted each year.
21
65614
3909
也就是說，這些公司每年
浪費了數十億美元在這些科技上。
浪費了數十億美元在這些科技上。
01:22
So why is this?
22
70138
2022
為什麼會這樣？
01:24
Well, from what I've seen,
23
72184
1394
嗯，就我的觀點來說，
01:25
the expectation from the top management
is high but not unreasonable
is high but not unreasonable
24
73602
4019
管理高層對於科技能帶來的益處
期望很高，但不是不合理。
01:29
about the benefits from the technology.
25
77645
2126
01:31
They expect people will use them,
26
79795
2900
他們期望人們能運用這些科技
01:34
it will create time savings,
27
82719
1462
來節省時間，
01:36
and people will become
genuinely better at their jobs.
genuinely better at their jobs.
28
84205
2726
並確實地把工作做得更好。
01:39
But the reality is that
the people on the front line,
the people on the front line,
29
87568
2814
但，現實是，前線的這些人，
01:42
who are supposed to be using
these softwares and tools,
these softwares and tools,
30
90406
2907
也就是應該要使用
這些軟體和工具的這些人，
這些軟體和工具的這些人，
01:45
they're skeptical or even afraid.
31
93337
2983
他們抱持懷疑或甚至會害怕。
01:48
We postpone the online trainings,
32
96344
2251
大家會把線上學習向後拖延，
01:50
we don't bother to learn the shortcuts,
33
98619
2063
不想費心地去學習捷徑方法，
01:52
and we get frustrated
at the number of tools
at the number of tools
34
100706
2347
對於得要記住這麼多工具的
登入方式和使用方式，
感到很挫折。
感到很挫折。
01:55
we have to remember
how to log into and use.
how to log into and use.
35
103077
2385
01:57
Right?
36
105486
1298
對吧？
01:58
And that frustration,
that guilt -- it's racking up,
that guilt -- it's racking up,
37
106808
3163
那種挫折感、罪惡感，會不斷累積，
02:01
the more that technology is inserting
itself into our daily working lives,
itself into our daily working lives,
38
109995
4856
那些科技越是強行介入
我們的日常工作生活當中
我們的日常工作生活當中
02:06
which is a lot.
39
114875
1243
越是難受。
02:08
Brookings says that 70 percent
of jobs today in the US
of jobs today in the US
40
116715
3695
布魯金斯說，現今在美國，
70% 的工作職位
70% 的工作職位
02:12
require at least mid-level digital skills.
41
120434
2823
都需要至少中級以上的數位技能。
02:15
So basically, to work these days,
42
123768
2577
所以，基本上，現在若是要工作，
02:18
you need to be able
to work with technology.
to work with technology.
43
126369
3193
你就得和科技一同工作。
02:21
But from what I've seen,
44
129586
1447
但，就我所知，
02:23
we are not approaching this
with the right mindset.
with the right mindset.
45
131057
3602
我們並沒有用
正確的心態來面對這件事。
正確的心態來面對這件事。
02:27
So here's the idea
that I've been toying with:
that I've been toying with:
46
135157
2931
所以，我把這個想法付之執行：
02:31
What if we treated technology
like a team member?
like a team member?
47
139096
3662
如果我們把科技當成是
團隊成員來對待呢？
團隊成員來對待呢？
02:36
I've been writing my own
personal experiment about this.
personal experiment about this.
48
144004
2830
我持續地把這些個人經歷寫成文章。
02:38
I've spoken to people
from all different industries
from all different industries
49
146858
2594
與來自各種產業的人對談，
02:41
about how they can treat
their core technologies like colleagues.
their core technologies like colleagues.
50
149476
4770
談他們可以如何將他們的
核心科技當作同事一樣對待。
核心科技當作同事一樣對待。
02:46
I've met with people
from the restaurant industry,
from the restaurant industry,
51
154816
2842
我見過餐飲業的人、
02:49
medical professionals, teachers, bankers,
52
157682
3120
醫療專業人士、老師、銀行家、
02:52
people from many other sectors,
53
160826
1785
以及許多來自不同領域的人，
02:54
and the first step with anybody
that I would meet with
that I would meet with
54
162635
2841
見到每一個人，第一步都是
02:57
was to draw out
the structure of their teams
the structure of their teams
55
165500
2147
先在組織圖中畫出
他們團隊的架構圖。
02:59
in an organization chart.
56
167671
1924
03:02
Now, I'm a total geek
when it comes to organization charts.
when it comes to organization charts.
57
170242
3729
談到組織圖，我根本是個怪胎。
03:06
Org charts are really cool
because, if they are drawn well,
because, if they are drawn well,
58
174658
3412
組織圖很酷，因為，如果畫得好，
03:10
you can quickly get a sense
of what individual roles are
of what individual roles are
59
178094
2986
對於每個人的角色，
你馬上就能有點概念，
你馬上就能有點概念，
03:13
and also how a team works well together.
60
181104
2068
也能知道團隊如何一起合作。
03:15
But if you look at a typical org chart,
61
183840
2479
但如果你仔細觀察典型的組織圖，
03:18
it only includes the boxes and lines
that represent people.
that represent people.
62
186343
3448
只有用方塊和線條
來代表「人」的那種組織圖。
來代表「人」的那種組織圖。
03:22
None of the technology
team members are there.
team members are there.
63
190286
3147
你在上面會看不到
任何一位科技團隊成員。
任何一位科技團隊成員。
03:25
They're all invisible.
64
193457
1656
它們都是隱形的。
03:27
So for each of the organizations
that I met with for my experiment,
that I met with for my experiment,
65
195137
4557
所以，在我的實驗中，
針對每一個和我會面的組織，
針對每一個和我會面的組織，
03:31
I had to draw a new type of org chart,
66
199718
2670
我都會畫一種新型的組織圖，
03:34
one that also included the technology.
67
202412
2464
把科技也納入其中。
03:37
And when I did this, people I spoke to
68
205434
2237
當我這麼做時，和我談的人
03:39
could actually visualize
their technologies as coworkers,
their technologies as coworkers,
69
207695
3847
就能真正視覺化地
將他們的科技視為同事，
將他們的科技視為同事，
03:43
and they could ask things like:
70
211566
1895
他們就會問這樣的問題：
03:45
"Is this software reporting
to the right person?"
to the right person?"
71
213485
2589
「這個軟體向『對的人』報告嗎？」
03:48
"Does this man and machine team
work well together?"
work well together?"
72
216098
3146
「這個人和機器團隊合作得好嗎？」
03:51
"Is that technology
actually the team member
actually the team member
73
219268
2724
「那項科技是大家都覺得尷尬
而會躲避的團隊成員嗎？」
03:54
that everybody's awkwardly avoiding?"
74
222016
2160
03:56
So I will walk you through an example
of a small catering company
of a small catering company
75
224964
3935
我會帶大家一起探討
一間小型餐飲公司的例子，
一間小型餐飲公司的例子，
04:00
to bring this experiment to life.
76
228923
1803
讓這個實驗能生動呈現。
04:03
This is the top layer of people
who work at Bovingdons Catering Company.
who work at Bovingdons Catering Company.
77
231579
4472
這是 Bovingdons
餐飲公司的最高層人員。
餐飲公司的最高層人員。
04:08
There's a sales director, who manages
all of the customer interactions,
all of the customer interactions,
78
236075
3965
包括業務主管，
他要管理所有的客戶互動，
他要管理所有的客戶互動，
04:12
and there's an operations director,
who manages all the internal activities.
who manages all the internal activities.
79
240064
4134
還有營運主管，
管理所有內部的活動。
管理所有內部的活動。
04:16
And here's the people who report
to the sales and operations directors.
to the sales and operations directors.
80
244222
3638
這些則是要向業務
及營運主管報告的人。
及營運主管報告的人。
04:20
And finally, here's the view
81
248552
1682
最後，在這張圖中，
04:22
where we've overlaid
the software and the hardware
the software and the hardware
82
250258
2639
我們把 Bovingdons
全體員工會用到的
全體員工會用到的
04:24
that's used by the Bovingdons staff.
83
252921
1919
軟體和硬體也列出來，
04:27
Using this amazing org chart,
we can now explore
we can now explore
84
255440
3649
用這張很讓人驚奇的組織圖，
現在我們可以探討
現在我們可以探討
04:31
how the human team members
and the technology team members
and the technology team members
85
259113
2733
人類團隊成員和科技團隊成員
04:33
are interacting.
86
261870
1193
要如何互動。
04:35
So the first thing
that I'm going to look for
that I'm going to look for
87
263840
2176
我首先要找的
04:38
is where there's a human
and machine relationship
and machine relationship
88
266040
2968
就是人類與機器之間的關係，
04:41
that's extra critical.
89
269032
1865
這點格外重要。
04:42
Usually, it's somebody using a technology
90
270921
2394
通常，這個圖就是某位員工
04:45
on a day-to-day basis
to do his or her job.
to do his or her job.
91
273339
2212
每天與科技的工作關係圖。
04:48
At Bovingdons,
92
276564
1185
在 Bovingdons，
04:49
the finance director with
the accounting platform would be one.
the accounting platform would be one.
93
277773
3064
財務主管與會計平台就是一個例子。
04:53
Next, I would check on the status
of their collaboration.
of their collaboration.
94
281387
3843
接著，我會察看他們合作的狀況。
04:57
Are they working well together?
95
285254
1485
他們在一起工作順利嗎？處得來嗎？
04:58
Getting along?
96
286763
1230
05:00
In this case, it turned out to be
a tenuous relationship.
a tenuous relationship.
97
288017
3324
在這個案例中發現
他們的關係是很薄弱的。
他們的關係是很薄弱的。
05:03
So, what to do?
98
291937
1735
所以，該怎麼辦？
05:05
Well, if the accounting platform
were actually a person,
were actually a person,
99
293696
4676
嗯，如果會計平台真的是一個人，
05:10
the finance director would feel
responsible for managing it
responsible for managing it
100
298396
3297
財務主管會覺得自己
有責任要管理它
有責任要管理它
05:13
and taking care of it.
101
301717
1327
並照顧它。
05:15
Well, in the same way,
102
303068
1445
同樣的，
05:16
my first suggestion was to think
about a team-building activity,
about a team-building activity,
103
304537
3350
我的第一個建議是要想出
一個建立團隊的活動，
一個建立團隊的活動，
05:19
maybe getting together
on a specialist course.
on a specialist course.
104
307911
3003
也許可以一起去上一堂專業課程。
05:23
My second suggestion was to think about
scheduling regular performance reviews
scheduling regular performance reviews
105
311565
4765
我的第二個建議是要為會計平台
安排定期的績效檢討，
05:28
for the accounting platform,
106
316354
1763
05:30
where the finance director
would literally give feedback
would literally give feedback
107
318141
3095
在檢討時，財務主管
要提供回饋意見
要提供回饋意見
給販售這個平台的公司。
05:33
to the company who sold it.
108
321260
1408
05:35
Now, there will be several of these
really important human and machine teams
really important human and machine teams
109
323642
4411
在每一個組織中，都會有數個
這種重要的「人類──機器」團隊。
05:40
in every organization.
110
328077
1642
05:41
So if you're in one,
it's worth taking the time
it's worth taking the time
111
329743
2236
如果你是其中一員，
就值得花些時間
就值得花些時間
05:44
to think about ways to make
those relationships truly collaborative.
those relationships truly collaborative.
112
332003
3819
想辦法讓那些關係變成
真正的協同工作關係。
真正的協同工作關係。
05:48
Next, I'll look on the chart
for any human role
for any human role
113
336927
3703
接著，我會在圖上尋找有沒有人
05:52
which might be overloaded by technology,
114
340654
2923
可能會因為科技而負荷過多，
05:55
let's say, interacting with four
or more types of applications.
or more types of applications.
115
343601
4017
比如說，要和四種
以上的應用程式互動。
以上的應用程式互動。
06:00
At Bovingdons, the operations director
was interacting with five technologies.
was interacting with five technologies.
116
348487
4892
在 Bovingdons，營運主管
就要和五種科技互動。
就要和五種科技互動。
06:05
Now, he told me that he'd always felt
overwhelmed by his job,
overwhelmed by his job,
117
353403
3444
他告訴我，他總覺得忙不過來
06:08
but it wasn't until our conversation
118
356871
2285
但一直到我們進行了對談之後，
06:11
that he thought it might be because
of the technologies he was overseeing.
of the technologies he was overseeing.
119
359180
4086
他才發現原因有可能是
他在監管的科技。
他在監管的科技。
06:15
And we were talking that,
120
363290
1386
我們在談的是，
06:16
if the operations director had actually
had a lot of people reporting to him,
had a lot of people reporting to him,
121
364700
4707
如果真的有很多人
需要向營運主管報告，
需要向營運主管報告，
06:21
he probably would have done
something about it,
something about it,
122
369431
2209
那他應該得想個辦法來處理這樣的困境，
06:23
because it was stretching him too thin,
123
371664
1888
因為太多人向他報告
會讓他分身乏術，
會讓他分身乏術，
06:25
like, move some of them
to report to somebody else.
to report to somebody else.
124
373576
2470
比如，他可以讓其中一些人
改向其他人報告。
改向其他人報告。
06:28
So in the same way, we talked about
moving some of the technologies
moving some of the technologies
125
376070
3484
所以，我們用同樣的方式來談
是不是能讓其中一些科技
是不是能讓其中一些科技
06:31
to report to someone else,
126
379578
1394
向其他人報告，
06:32
like the food inventory to go to the chef.
127
380996
2425
比如食物庫存就向主廚報告。
06:37
The last thing that I'll look for
is any technology
is any technology
128
385330
3382
最後，我還會尋找圖上有沒有
06:40
that seems to be on the org chart
without a real home.
without a real home.
129
388736
4076
哪一項科技看起來是沒人理的。
06:44
Sometimes they're floating around
without an owner.
without an owner.
130
392836
2789
有時，它們會到處遊走，
沒有擁有者。
沒有擁有者。
06:47
Sometimes they're reporting
to so many different areas
to so many different areas
131
395649
3062
有時，它們要向
許多不同的部門報告，
許多不同的部門報告，
06:50
that you can't tell
who's actually using it.
who's actually using it.
132
398735
2111
讓你無法分辨出到底是誰在用它。
06:53
Now, at Bovingdons,
133
401648
1186
在 Bovingdons，
06:54
nobody appeared to be looking after
the marketing software.
the marketing software.
134
402858
3231
看來並沒有人在照顧行銷軟體。
06:58
It was like someone had hired it
and then didn't give it a desk
and then didn't give it a desk
135
406746
3522
這就好像是有人僱用了它，
卻沒有給它一張桌子，
卻沒有給它一張桌子，
07:02
or any instructions on what to do.
136
410292
1686
沒有指示它要做什麼。
07:04
So clearly, it needed a job description,
137
412806
2365
所以，很明顯，
它需要工作內容描述，
它需要工作內容描述，
07:07
maybe someone to manage it.
138
415195
1675
也許還需要有人管理它。
07:09
But in other companies,
139
417497
1196
但在其他公司中，
07:10
you might find that a technology
has been sidelined for a reason,
has been sidelined for a reason,
140
418717
4376
你可能會發現有的科技
被冷凍是有原因的，
被冷凍是有原因的，
07:15
like it's time for it
to leave or be retired.
to leave or be retired.
141
423117
3599
比如，該是它離開
或退休的時候了。
或退休的時候了。
07:18
Now, retiring applications
is something that all companies do.
is something that all companies do.
142
426740
4563
每間公司都會讓應用程式退休。
07:23
But maybe taking the mindset that those
applications are actually coworkers
applications are actually coworkers
143
431327
4991
但如果調整一下心態，把那些
應用程式當成是真正的同事，
應用程式當成是真正的同事，
07:28
could help them to decide when and how
to retire those applications
to retire those applications
144
436342
3436
可能可以協助他們決定何時
及如何讓這些應用程式退休，
及如何讓這些應用程式退休，
07:31
in the way that would be least destructive
to the rest of the team.
to the rest of the team.
145
439802
3369
才能把對團隊中
其他人的傷害降到最低。
其他人的傷害降到最低。
07:36
I did this experiment
with 15 different professionals,
with 15 different professionals,
146
444552
3506
我和十五位不同的
專業人士做過這個實驗，
專業人士做過這個實驗，
07:40
and each time it sparked an idea.
147
448082
2318
每次都會有一個新點子冒出來。
07:42
Sometimes, a bit more.
148
450932
1446
有時，還更多。
07:44
You remember that hotshot employee
I was telling you about,
I was telling you about,
149
452996
2863
你們還記得我前面提到的
大咖級員工嗎？
大咖級員工嗎？
07:47
that everybody was ignoring?
150
455883
1821
被大家忽視的那位？
07:49
That was a real story
told to me by Christopher,
told to me by Christopher,
151
457728
3244
那是克里斯多夫
告訴我的真實故事，
告訴我的真實故事，
07:52
a very energetic human resources manager
at a big consumer goods company.
at a big consumer goods company.
152
460996
4301
他在大型消費品公司工作，
是一位活力十足的人力資源經理，
是一位活力十足的人力資源經理，
07:57
Technology was a new HR platform,
153
465990
3453
科技是一個新的人力資源平台，
08:01
and it had been installed
for 14 months at great expense,
for 14 months at great expense,
154
469467
4288
十四個月前就安裝完成，
耗費很多金錢，
耗費很多金錢，
08:05
but nobody was using it.
155
473779
1978
但沒有人在用它。
08:08
So we were talking about how,
156
476375
2647
所以，我們就談起了
08:11
if this had really been such a hotshot
employee with amazing credentials,
employee with amazing credentials,
157
479046
5194
如果它真的是個大咖級的員工，
且有驚人的資歷，
且有驚人的資歷，
08:16
you would go out of your way
to get to know it,
to get to know it,
158
484264
2249
你會不遺餘力地去了解它，
08:18
maybe invite them for coffee,
159
486537
2110
也許邀請他們去喝咖啡，
08:20
get to know their background.
160
488671
2321
了解他們的背景。
所以，抱持實驗的精神，
08:23
So in the spirit of experimentation,
161
491016
3385
08:26
Christopher set up one-hour appointments,
162
494425
2840
克里斯多夫約了一小時，
08:29
coffee optional,
163
497289
1516
要不要咖啡自己決定，
08:30
for his team members to have no agenda
but to get to know their HR system.
but to get to know their HR system.
164
498829
5935
這時間要他的團隊成員
沒排別的議程，
沒排別的議程，
只去了解他們的人力資源系統。
08:37
Some people, they clicked around
menu item by menu item.
menu item by menu item.
165
505279
3413
有些人會把選單中的
每一個選項都點選過。
每一個選項都點選過。
08:40
Other people, they searched online
for things that they weren't clear about.
for things that they weren't clear about.
166
508716
3853
其他人則是上網搜尋
他們不清楚的地方。
他們不清楚的地方。
08:44
A couple of them got together,
gossiped about the new software in town.
gossiped about the new software in town.
167
512593
3509
他們幾個人聚在一起，
八卦這個新來乍到的軟體。
八卦這個新來乍到的軟體。
08:48
And a few weeks later,
Christopher called to tell me
Christopher called to tell me
168
516896
2663
幾個星期之後，
克里斯多夫打電話來告訴我，
克里斯多夫打電話來告訴我，
08:51
that people were using
the system in new ways,
the system in new ways,
169
519583
3358
大家開始以新的方式
使用這個系統，
使用這個系統，
08:54
and he thought it was going to save them
weeks of effort in the future.
weeks of effort in the future.
170
522965
3361
他認為將來能為他們
省下數週的功夫。
省下數週的功夫。
08:59
And they also reported feeling
less intimidated by the software.
less intimidated by the software.
171
527025
4515
他們也說自己感覺
比較不怕這個軟體了。
比較不怕這個軟體了。
09:03
I found that pretty amazing,
172
531564
1644
我覺得這相當不可思議，
09:05
that taking this mindset
helped Christopher's team
helped Christopher's team
173
533232
3076
採用這種心態，
讓克里斯多夫的團隊
讓克里斯多夫的團隊
09:08
and others that I spoke to
these past few months
these past few months
174
536332
2375
以及過去幾個月內
和我談過的其他團隊
和我談過的其他團隊
09:10
actually feel happier
about working with technology.
about working with technology.
175
538731
3013
都真正覺得和科技共事
變得更快樂些。
變得更快樂些。
09:14
And I later found out
this is backed up by research.
this is backed up by research.
176
542268
2699
後來，我發現有研究
支持這個方法。
支持這個方法。
09:17
Studies have shown that people
who work in organizations
who work in organizations
177
545406
3481
有研究指出，在組織內工作的人，
09:20
that encourage them to talk about
and learn about the technologies
and learn about the technologies
178
548911
3243
若鼓勵他們在工作場所
談論科技、學習科技，
09:24
in the workplace
179
552178
1155
09:25
have 20 percent lower stress levels
180
553357
2192
他們承受的壓力層級就會比
沒有這麼做的人更低 20%。
09:27
than those in organizations that don't.
181
555573
2130
09:30
I also found it really cool
that when I started to do this experiment,
that when I started to do this experiment,
182
558607
4121
我還發現一件很酷的事，
當我開始做這個實驗時，
當我開始做這個實驗時，
09:34
I started with what was happening
between a person
between a person
183
562752
2801
我是從一個人和一項各別科技
之間的關係當作開端，
09:37
and an individual technology,
184
565577
1922
09:39
but then it ultimately led to ideas
about how to manage tech
about how to manage tech
185
567523
3562
但接著，最終還是會延伸到討論
要如何在整個公司當中管理這些科技。
09:43
across entire companies.
186
571109
2023
09:45
Like, when I did this
for my own job and extended it,
for my own job and extended it,
187
573156
3382
我針對我自己的工作來做
這實驗，並將它延伸出去，
這實驗，並將它延伸出去，
09:48
I thought about how
our data analysis tools
our data analysis tools
188
576562
2549
那時我想過，我們的資料分析工具
09:51
should go on the equivalent
of a job rotation program,
of a job rotation program,
189
579135
3365
應該要有類似工作輪班的程式在裡面，
09:54
where different parts of the company
could get to know it.
could get to know it.
190
582524
2853
讓公司中不同部門的人
能夠認識它。
能夠認識它。
09:57
And I also thought about suggesting
to our recruiting team
to our recruiting team
191
585401
3172
我還想過要向
我們的徵才團隊建議，
我們的徵才團隊建議，
10:00
that some of the technologies
we work with every day
we work with every day
192
588597
2589
我們每天會使用的一些科技
10:03
should come with us
on our big recruiting events.
on our big recruiting events.
193
591210
2554
應該要和我們一起參加
我們的大型徵才活動。
我們的大型徵才活動。
10:05
If you were a university student,
194
593788
1602
如果你是大學生，
10:07
how cool would it be to not
only get to know the people
only get to know the people
195
595414
2615
這是件很酷的事，因為你不只是
認識將來會共事的人，
認識將來會共事的人，
10:10
you might be working with,
196
598053
1259
10:11
but also the technologies?
197
599336
1621
還有你將來會共事的科技。
10:13
Now, all of this begs the question:
198
601637
2280
這一切，都帶出了一個問題：
10:15
What have we been missing
199
603941
1507
一直把我們每天工作要用到的
10:17
by keeping the technologies
that we work with day to day invisible,
that we work with day to day invisible,
200
605472
3767
科技隱藏起來，
會讓我們錯失掉了什麼？
會讓我們錯失掉了什麼？
10:21
and what, beyond those
billions of dollars in value,
billions of dollars in value,
201
609263
3147
且，在那幾十億美元的價值之外，
10:24
might we be leaving on the table?
202
612434
1700
我們可能有什麼沒考量到？
10:27
The good news is,
203
615189
1324
好消息是，
10:28
you don't need to be
an org chart geek like me
an org chart geek like me
204
616537
2484
你不需要成為
像我這樣的組織圖怪胎，
像我這樣的組織圖怪胎，
10:31
to take this experiment forward.
205
619045
1665
也能進行這個實驗。
10:33
It will take a matter
of minutes for most people
of minutes for most people
206
621267
2336
對大部分的人來說，只要幾分鐘，
就能畫出他們和哪些人
共事的結構圖，
共事的結構圖，
10:35
to draw out a structure
of who they work with,
of who they work with,
207
623627
2177
10:37
a little bit longer
to add in the technologies
to add in the technologies
208
625828
2223
再多花一點時間，
就能把科技也放入，
就能把科技也放入，
看到整個團隊的狀況，
10:40
to get a view of the entire team,
209
628075
1716
10:41
and then you can have fun
asking questions like,
asking questions like,
210
629815
2802
接著，你就能享受
問這類問題的樂趣：
問這類問題的樂趣：
10:44
"Which are the technologies
that I'll be taking out for coffee?"
that I'll be taking out for coffee?"
211
632641
3402
「我會邀請哪一項科技
一起出去喝咖啡？」
一起出去喝咖啡？」
10:48
Now, I didn't do this experiment for kicks
212
636067
3228
我做這項實驗並不是為了好玩
10:51
or for the coffee.
213
639319
1554
或喝咖啡。
10:52
I did it because the critical skill
in the 21st-century workplace
in the 21st-century workplace
214
640897
4634
我做的目的，是因為在 21 世紀，
在工作場所的重要技能
在工作場所的重要技能
10:57
is going to be to collaborate
with the technologies
with the technologies
215
645555
2616
將會是和科技一起協同工作，
11:00
that are becoming such a big and costly
part of our daily working lives.
part of our daily working lives.
216
648195
3918
因為科技正在成為我們工作日常中
非常重要的一員。
非常重要的一員。
11:04
And from what I was seeing,
we are struggling to cope with that.
we are struggling to cope with that.
217
652137
3623
就我所看到的，我們正在
掙扎著要對付這類狀況。
掙扎著要對付這類狀況。
11:08
So it might sound counterintuitive,
218
656276
2722
這聽起來可能有點違背常理，
11:11
but by embracing the idea that these
machines are actually valuable colleagues,
machines are actually valuable colleagues,
219
659022
5112
但若能開放地接受
這些機器其實是有價值的同事，
這些機器其實是有價值的同事，
11:16
we as people will perform better
220
664158
1952
我們人類的表現也會更佳，
11:18
and be happier.
221
666134
1516
且過得更快樂。
11:19
So let's all share a bit of humanity
222
667674
3017
所以，咱們來分享一點人性給
11:22
towards the technologies
and the softwares and the algorithms
and the softwares and the algorithms
223
670715
3528
和我們一起工作的科技、軟體、
11:26
and the robots who we work with,
224
674267
1979
演算法和機器人，
11:28
because we will all be the better for it.
225
676270
2522
因為這麼做能讓我們都變得更好。
11:31
Thank you.
226
679372
1681
謝謝。
