Pragmatics

Analytics and Insights, Data Science, Insights 1 Minute

I’m interested in the pragmatics. The utterance on the medium, not the mediums themselves. And then the understanding of the utterance, from a cognitive perspective.

Why?

This is the key. Media, rhetoric and influence doesn’t go beyond pragmatics. Until the days when we hook our selves up to a computer, and that day will come, we have to rely on understanding the interaction between syntax and utterance, with in a multi-variable context. Variables could include Channel – Facebook, LinkedIn, New Papers, Tablets,PC, Mobile. Each has a specific type of interaction and legitimacy structure. Once adopted, a Frame is pushed  and the culture crated. By looking at the interaction between Man and machine, we get valuable information.  This is researched with in the study of Captology from the Stanford lab. It’s headed by B.J. Fogg. Very interesting stuff.

More a bit later. I need a cafe, you can loose yourself in the logic surrounding this type of thinking.

Do to fundamental market shifts; organizations now find themselves operating within increased volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). As a result, there are fewer markets with unknown opportunities and places to hide during market turbulence. Business, both big and small, will need to shift their thinking on what work, strategy, and creativity are. The majority of processes deployed at organizations are superficial and lead to a marginal compared, if any, competitive advantage, or built on assumptions that are no longer relevant or accurate. At Walmart, I work on machine intelligence to optimize corporate strategy and business processes for the VUCA age. By analyzing market trends and strategic frameworks with machine intelligence and algorithms, I've come to the conclusion that competitive advantage lay in the embrace of complexity, faster information to action times, and the unorthodox, as well as being agnostic to how an entity makes money or reacts to markets - especially for asset-rich businesses. This site is meant to house some of my research and thinking in the above areas. The views and comments expressed here are my own and do not represent companies I have worked for or with.
