5 Principles for Successful #GenAI Use Inspired by Anni Hallila As the head of people and culture at Framery, a Finnish manufacturing company, Anni Hallila has cultivated a work environment that prioritizes open communication, teamwork, and employee well-being. Her inspiring work principles based on a common few Finnish phrases can be seamlessly applied to leveraging Generative AI (GenAI) effectively: 1. "The person who asks questions will not stray away from the path." In the realm of GenAI, asking the right questions is crucial. By engaging actively and probing the AI with thoughtful queries, users can extract valuable insights and ensure the AI remains aligned with their goals. This principle emphasizes the importance of curiosity and open communication in driving AI success. 2. "A crazy person does a lot of work; a smart person gets away with less." GenAI excels when used smartly. Rather than overwhelming the AI with endless tasks, focus on strategic inputs and clearly define objectives. This approach allows users to achieve more with less effort, balancing innovation with efficiency and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. 3. "Put the cat on the table." Addressing issues directly is vital when working with AI. If there's a problem with the AI's output or a misunderstanding in its responses, it's essential to tackle it head-on. Open discussions and trust in the AI's capabilities can lead to better solutions and improvements. 4. "Whatever you leave behind, you will find in front of you." Ignoring small errors or unresolved issues in AI-generated content can lead to bigger problems down the line. Promptly addressing and correcting mistakes ensures that the AI continues to provide accurate and reliable results, maintaining workflow efficiency. 5. "Going toward the tree with your back first." Planning ahead is key to successful AI integration. By strategically anticipating future needs and potential challenges, users can avoid setbacks and ensure the AI aligns with their long-term objectives. This foresight enables smoother implementation and maximizes the AI's impact. Applying these principles to GenAI can transform how users engage with this technology, driving innovation and efficiency in their projects.

The Finnish mobile phone company HMD Global has cleverly stood out in the market by using old ideas in a sophisticated market. But... what’s genius about this?? Well, first, it’s crucial to recognize that HMD’s licensing of the Nokia brand was and has been fundamental to the company’s prominence on the global stage in such a short time. Even more remarkable was the company’s re-release of Nokia devices (classified as feature phones) that were bestsellers 25 years ago. Let's take a look at this short but promising journey: 2021: HMD Global shipped 10.9 million Nokia smartphones and 42.3 million feature phones, totaling 53.2 million handsets for the year. This shows a strong emphasis on feature phones, which constituted a significant portion of their sales. 2022: The first quarter saw a significant increase with global smartphone shipments growing 126% year-over-year to 3 million units. This growth pushed their market share to nearly 1% of the global smartphone market, up from just over 0.75% the previous quarter. For much of the period between 2019 and 2022, the focus remained primarily on Nokia-branded phones. 2023: HMD Global continued to dominate the global feature phone market with its Nokia-branded devices. According to IDC, in Q3 2023, HMD held a 30.7% market share by value and 22.4% by volume in the feature phone segment. This shows a strong presence and a significant increase over previous quarters. Starting in 2024, HMD began to increase the production and marketing of its own HMD-branded smartphones. HMD has been expanding its presence in the B2B market, leveraging the Nokia brand’s reputation for durability and security while introducing new services like enterprise mobility management and IoT connectivity. The brilliant insight of HMD's executives was recognizing a shift in social behavior towards the excessive digital exposure of modern society, which many call SMF (Social Media Fatigue). Did they invest millions of dollars in research and product innovation to address this growing segment? Hmm... Nope! They simply and brilliantly relaunched the Nokia feature phones, replicating past successes. But... what about the future?? #HMDGlobal #Nokia #FeaturePhones #Smartphones #MobileTechnology #Innovation #MarketStrategy #B2B #IoT #SocialMediaFatigue #TechTrends #GlobalMarket #BrandLicensing #EnterpriseMobility #TechInnovation #DigitalDetox
