5 things a skills platform does that HRIS & LMS can't. Check out the attached carousel. Short version: capability concentration, cross-section staffing, currency vs completion, survey-to-action, forward-look capacity. Questions the system should answer, not features.
A tab is not a system. A field is not an engine. Your HRIS or LMS has a skills tab. It does not have skills intelligence. Read more: skillsdb.com/blog/hris-lms-…
Customer reaction to the launch this week: "Where did our migration project go?" The data carried over. The new surfaces work against it. No flip-the-switch event. Destabilizing in a good way.
The whole game in one line: Questions that used to take a week now take a query. That's the shift the new SkillsDB ships.
Here's the full launch post: skillsdb.com/blog/new-skill… Book a walkthrough: cal.com/team/skillsdb/…
If you've been told by an HRIS or LMS vendor they have a "skills" field or module...we agree. That's ridiculous. The new SkillsDB is what a skills intelligence platform actually looks like. Blog + walkthrough in reply. (3/3)
It's live. The new SkillsDB. 18 months. Rebuilt from scratch. 18 years in the making. Skills as the data primitive, not a column on the employee record. API-first. Cross-section search. No migration for existing customer. [MCP coming soon.] (1/3)
18 months in the build. Rebuilt from scratch. 18 years in the making. Skills intelligence as infrastructure, not a feature. Monday.
Really proud of the team at @accessfund in working with @SenatorHick to get a unanimous vote approving an amendment protecting climbing on public lands!
🎉 We've got great news! 🎉 Thanks to @SenatorHick's leadership, an important U.S. Senate committee amended the America's Outdoor Recreation Act (AORA) to safeguard rock climbing on public lands, including Wilderness, around the country.
Need some help…our enterprise customers use MS Teams, Slack, email, sometimes SMS for support…is there a product that allows our CS team to use one app/screen to consolidate all of the various channels in one place? Front doesn’t work with Teams. Intercom? Freshworks? Others?
Proud of @accessfund today! We helped craft and get introduced a standalone bipartisan bill in Congress for the federal protection of climbing in Wilderness. This will go a long way to sustainably protect climbing & outdoor recreation on federal land. accessfund.org/news-and-event…
This post quite literally changed my life, and is one of the best pieces written on the internet. Thought I'd share it since I'm constantly telling people about it anyway. You're welcome. waitbutwhy.com/2015/12/the-ta…
@wbruce Also, be sure to put the weld of the strap metal inside of the webbing loop. That’s the way it is designed to be positioned.
@wbruce Grab a large D or pear shaped locking climbing carabiner and put that through the metal of the straps. Then put the hook closure through the carabiner and all will be safe. When upside down, the gate of the hook could damage the rope.
Eleven, the company I cofounded 20 years ago, has sold. We recently passed 10K properties w/ 1.5M doors in 50+ countries, 7B auths/yr, 40 FTEs, significant revenue milestones, many years of positive cashflow & a >13x investor return. Proud of our team! elevensoftware.com/news/eleven-so…
Proud what we built at @NedSpacePDX over the past 12 years, with hundreds of founders/companies, lots of fundraising rounds & ~12 exits from members. Even helped update City of PDX econ-dev strategy. We sold the biz to Jorge from @vive_nw. Baton passed! siliconflorist.com/2021/04/28/pas…
