Talent: Begin and end with people
Nothing will be the same. Adobe use of AI changes the business-cases for everybody. You can choose, or choices are made for you by talent, partners, and competition. EkaLore makes recommendations for enterprises and talent throughout the tech eco-system and users.
These To Do’s start today. They will take longer than you want. They will tell you things you may not want to know. These recommendations are for production art and related processes. EkaLore will look to manufacturing and engineering processes separately.
Begin with what people (talent) can do. The technology continues to change at extreme rates. Does the enterprise have a plan in place to keep people trained up? If you don’t have a plan – your plan is to not care. Your people care – they might be attracted to working somewhere else where a plan exists to keep them trained up. Example: Productivity isn’t uniform. Long term employees are highly productive – how can they be even more so? The largest gains can be from people going from a junior to a senior skill levels. Boosting skills takes up time and money. Put together a short plan to take advantage of these gains as people get better. The plan should translate the benefits from better people getting more production completed, higher confidence in schedules, and process steps not easily done now.
The talent, and numbers of people, needed today might not be the same tomorrow. Talent growth and development are shifting daily. Onboarding and training for local enterprise practices and standards uses up time and money. Talent headcounts will change when shifting, keeping, or losing, talent. Example: Update, or create, a plan to acquire, retain, and lose talent headcount to meet enterprise requirements. How much talent spend can be replanned for getting more done, faster, with fewer people or better process? The plan should show benefits and justify new staffing levels including managers.
Talent costs are hard to look at from one side. Does your enterprise know how much talent (in or outside) costs to match up against costs? Process costs take up specialist time and generate paperwork unless automated. New demands follow on from international markets, online/ecommerce, and social media with more complicated approvals, collaboration, and communications complications. Example: Identify how much a process costs to get work done. Start with an example like: Get costs for the process of supplying social media marketers with multiple images per day per marketing group for their needs?
The next segments will look to the processes of production art, and then move on to engineering and manufacturing.

Previously in the Series Summary
In Parts 1 thru 4 EkaLore looked at an overview of Adobe’s continued overhaul of its products and services by applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) to speed how work gets done. Examples of how these features look at the marketplace in Part 2 were followed by a look at how the marketplace has been changed and will change in Part 3. Part 4 looked at how these new features enable process-level changes at-scale, and for small-medium-enterprises, saving money, speeding up efforts, and setting people up to make decisions. Part 5 looks at a level deeper: what enterprises (small to colossal) will act on to save money, gain process speed, and add functions not previously practical. Parts 6 and 7 are a perspective of what Adobe invading their own market will mean across functions and industries. Parts 8 and 9 pull together the most important points from the series.
