    The future of urban transit
    The news
    Out of the fast lane. As the largest generation in the US, millennials are starting to influence an aspect of infrastructure that hasn’t changed much in the past 50 years: transportation planning. A recent study found a widening generation gap in driving habits, with millennials driving less than both Gen X and baby boomers. Millennial city dwellers tend to walk, bike, or use public transit. They’ve also had less of a need to go out, thanks to remote work and online shopping. [Quartz]
    Wheels on the bus. In the US, public transit has typically best served commuters working a regular 9-to-5 schedule, but those aren’t the riders who have stuck around. When ridership fell steeply during the pandemic, transit officials realized they should focus on the people who most rely on subways and buses: communities of color, lower-income residents, and people who don’t own cars. Some city transit agencies have made changes to better serve these populations—for example, adding more off-peak service or reducing or eliminating fares. [Wired]
    “Riders may soon be trading expectations of safety for expectations of convenience, efficiency, and reliability.”
    Our insights
    In the open air. Traveling in open air has been booming during the pandemic, observe two executives from ridesharing companies Uber and Via in a joint interview. They point to the expanding bike “superhighways” of Berlin and London as evidence of cycling’s rising popularity. In the future, they say, expect “a permanent redistribution of street space from cars to people, in the form of new sidewalks, bike lanes, and green spaces,” with car-free greenways and shared streets becoming “lasting fixtures of the urban landscape.”
    The 15-minute city. In the next five years, some big cities will “take steps to roundly reject the private car as a major component of urban mobility,” predicts one of the executives. Already, in Barcelona, car-free “superblocks” give pedestrians free rein of nine-block neighborhoods. Paris is pursuing the “15-minute city” model, where everything a resident needs is 15 minutes away on foot or by bike. Read our interview for perspectives on how new trends could change the urban-mobility landscape.

    ESSENTIALS FOR LEADERS AND THOSE THEY LEAD
    If there’s been one trusted antidote to the COVID-19 pandemic—at least from a business perspective—it’s the value of organizational resilience. Resilience is often cited in the context of crisis response, but its true meaning goes deeper: the proactive building of skills and capabilities to sustain people and organizations for the long haul. Developing resilience not only helps optimize functions in key business areas but also strengthens the organization holistically through flexible organizational routines, streamlined decision making, and agile teams. McKinsey research shows that adopting a holistic, cross-functional approach to operational resilience can improve a company’s overall resilience by 30 to 40 percent more than traditional functional optimization does. This week, let’s explore how leaders can boost resilience—for their institutions and themselves—through a cohesive effort.
    AN IDEA
    Mountain peak
    Use the luxury of time to prepare for the unexpected
    The Kangshung Face of Mount Everest is one of the most remote and arduous routes to the summit. One expedition reached the top safely by changing team behaviors to suit the context. At the start of their ascent, the team stuck to well-established routines designed for normal conditions on the mountain. But when conditions changed, the climbers developed simple rules of thumb (heuristics) to make timely decisions. And in the last, perilous stage of the climb, they improvised. Writing about this adventure in the Harvard Business Review, the authors—one of whom was part of the expedition—suggest that organizations can do the same: train themselves to alter the combination of routines, heuristics, and improvisation to match the requirements of different possible scenarios. This strategy enables leaders to prepare and practice for the unexpected while they have the luxury of time and resources rather than scrambling in an emergency. To design scenarios, try a thought exercise, such as conducting a “premortem” to identify which risks would seriously affect the organization’s core.
    A BIG NUMBER
    5
    If there are five frogs on a log and one decides to jump off, how many are left? “The answer is five, because deciding to do something and actually doing it are two different things,” says McKinsey’s Aaron De Smet in this podcast on cutting through the clutter in decision making. “Sometimes you think you’ve made the decision, and you walk out of the room, but a month later, nothing’s happened.” Foot-dragging on decisions doesn’t foster the resilience an organization needs to cope with uncertain and volatile environments. For organizations to achieve decision velocity, a critical first step is to set up a clutter-free decision architecture with a predefined process, discipline, and standardization.

    A QUOTE
    “It is really wonderful how much resilience there is in human nature.”
    That’s Dr. John Seward, writing in his diary in Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula after a harrowing encounter with the bloodthirsty Count. Modern organizations are unlikely to face such an existential bite, but they can capitalize on the innate resilience of human nature. Consider a planned approach to resilience training—including reskilling, cross-functional training, and building new skill sets—that empowers employees and yourself to do more than just make it through a crisis. As you build your organization’s postpandemic recovery model, focus your investments on four kinds of skills: digital, higher cognitive, social and emotional, and adaptability and resilience building.
    A SPOTLIGHT INTERVIEW
    A photo of Tata Motors CEO and managing director Guenter Butschek
    Automobile sales in India plunged in the early months of 2020 after the pandemic broke out. But Tata Motors CEO and managing director Guenter Butschek kept steering his company in the right direction, thanks to smart business-continuity planning, inclusive leadership, and a network of agile, nonhierarchical teams. In this interview with McKinsey, he describes his organization’s multifaceted approach to resilience. “[We] used the downtime of India’s nationwide lockdown to rethink, redesign, and reengineer how we work, where possible,” Butschek says. “The way we hardwire changes now will define our future.”
    MAKE A STATEMENT
    A photo of rope and carabiner clip
    A recent global study identified ten statements that the researchers consider the most reliable indicators for measuring workplace resilience. Respondents agreed that in resilient organizations, senior leaders were one step ahead of events, always did what they said they were going to do, and could be trusted completely. Want these things to be said with you in mind? Work on developing vivid foresight and visible follow-through—which in turn will boost employee and organizational resilience.
    Lead resiliently.

    Elusive inclusivity
    The news
    Spare the kumbaya. US companies spend $8 billion a year on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. But, too often, diversity goals are addressed with heartfelt conversations that don’t change anything. CEOs can make progress by using basic business tools—evidence, metrics, and persistence—rather than verbal niceties. [Fortune]
    Walk the walk. Most college seniors—58%—expect companies to talk up their diversity efforts during the recruitment process, a 2021 study reveals. Job seekers can assess an employer’s true commitment to diversity by interviewing current employees and looking at who makes up the leadership team. Employers can prove authenticity by communicating their diversity and inclusion goals, progress, and plans to interviewees. [Fast Company]
    “We need to be much more thoughtful about opportunities throughout the talent life cycle, from where we source talent to the skills we demand, promotions, development opportunities—all the way through.”
    Our insights
    Root out bias. Bias can hide in many places. Unpaid internships, algorithms designed to filter out those who don’t resemble the current employee base, and underlying assumptions about what knowledge, skills, or attributes people need to be successful (that aren’t based on evidence) all work against diversity.
    Make it real. Companies can take concrete actions to promote diversity. Adopting remote work and locating hubs in places where diverse workers live can broaden the talent pipeline. Sponsorship programs can help diverse employees make the climb to leadership. And being transparent about progress promotes accountability. Listen to our podcast for more on how to foster an inclusive workplace.

    How companies use agile to transform their data infrastructure and processes
    Having difficulty keeping your employees?
    The job market will probably continue to be a challenge for employers in the new year, which means that your workplace—whether remote or in-person—needs to be as comfortable, collaborative, and welcoming as possible if you are to retain workers.
    So what is your company’s culture like? Do people in your office—or you yourself—explode at meetings? Make sarcastic jokes about employees? Interrupt them when they are presenting? Treat them as if they were invisible? Send them withering e-mails? Scold them publicly?
    If so, you have a workplace jerk problem.
    Fifteen years ago, we published an article about workplace jerks—particularly managers and executives—by Robert Sutton, a management professor at Stanford. One psychologist whose work Sutton describes asked the subjects of a study whether and how their bosses behaved abusively. Six months later, he found that employees with abusive supervisors quit their jobs at higher rates; those who remained were less committed to their companies and more prone to burnout. Many other studies have similar findings.
    One story Sutton tells, about a 36-year-old man humiliated in public by his boss, is painful to read. But you owe it to yourself and your employees to think about our 2007 classic “Building the civilized workplace.”
    — Roger Draper, editor, New York

    “Great CEOs are bold. You can be bold regardless of context. Or you can be bold within that context. If you’re not bold in that first year, you’re not going to move the needle. That is the crux that’ll actually let you conquer any context and any situation around failing. That is your one safeguard against failure.”

    The Shortlist
    Our best ideas, quick and curated | january 21, 2022
    View in browser
    This week, the perils of work burnout and how best to address it. Plus, mobility sees a rebound, and Tech for Execs on how leaders can get up to speed on “continuous integration and continuous delivery,” or CI/CD.
    an illustration of 3 candles
    Running on fumes. We’re entering year three of the global pandemic, as readers most assuredly are aware. We’ve brought you articles about ways people and organizations can be more resilient and adaptable. We’ve written about the crucial need for wellness and mental health. But even though we’d all love to move on from pandemic affairs, it’s important to address one factor taking its toll on workers and organizations around the globe: burnout. Whether you’re still working from home or went back to in-person work right away, burnout may have been a constant companion for you or others in your organization.
    It’s chronic. The WHO defines occupational burnout as a syndrome, resulting from chronic workplace stress, that’s characterized by exhaustion or lack of energy, negative or cynical feelings associated with work, and reduced effectiveness in a role. As the world continues to grapple with the COVID-19 crisis, the emotional and psychological response to extended periods of pandemic-related uncertainty could significantly affect social and economic recovery efforts.
    Learned healthfulness. The good news is that psychological resilience can be learned, and research shows that people who report higher levels of resilience are physically healthier, more productive, and happier. McKinsey recently spoke with Amit Sood, MD, a leading expert on psychological resilience, about how people can tap into that mindset, strategies for maintaining well-being, and what companies can do to support their workers. He believes that employers have to view mental and behavioral health holistically, emphasizing prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation. Instead of focusing on productivity, he says, focus on purpose, cultivate compassion, and give employees the agency to make decisions. “It’s important to keep in mind what makes employees tick,” he said. “What really keeps them going is a sense of control and a sense of purpose. And if you give them both, it can help combat the cognitive overload that we may all be feeling.”
    Wish fulfillment. On the individual level, he suggests having realistic expectations of others too. “We have a practice called ‘kind attention,’ where you assume that everybody is struggling in some form or another,” he says. Replacing judgment with empathy, even before you get to know someone—“a silent good wish,” as he calls it—can kick off new relationships with a stronger connection.
    Good gossip. Jennifer Moss, the author of The Burnout Epidemic: The Rise of Chronic Stress and How We Can Fix It and member of the Global Happiness Council, told McKinsey recently that organizations need to look beyond traditional wellness perks to solve burnout. One way is to create “positive gossip,” which fosters a type of social contagion that creates positive narratives; think about complimenting a colleague on a recent presentation, for example. That positive feedback creates “this contagion effect—this network effect—of high productivity, high sense of self-efficacy, and value. Every boat is lifted when we behave that way.”
    Care for caregivers. Traditional wellness perks may also fall short for a large high-burnout group: working parents. As a recent survey of employed parents in the US indicates, the compound pressure of working while parenting has not only left many people feeling apathetic and fatigued but also created a sense of failure to live up to their own expectations as employee, parent, spouse, friend, or caregiver. Parents disproportionately left jobs over the past several months, according to our research on the Great Attrition.
    Call and response. Women in particular are facing higher long-term burnout and stress levels, as demonstrated by this honest conversation with three McKinsey senior partners—two mothers and one father, who took time off to be with his young daughter. One note of optimism, they said, was that we now have a fact base of real and measured experiences that companies can’t hide from and that the most responsive don’t want to hide from. Organizations that wish to retain these workers need to move quickly; in this recent article, we look at focused responses, which include crafting jobs that offer radical flexibility, providing more creative childcare support, and leaving the door open for parents who have left jobs but may want to return.

    The thin grid line
    Extreme weather events are taking a toll on electric grids. Modeling climate change resilience can provide valuable insights when and where they’re needed most. In the case of extreme wind, the direct effects include the impact of high winds on power lines, while the indirect effects include the disruption of nongrid assets such as power plants. Vulnerability curves express the probability of asset failure as a function of the intensity of the weather event. As the latter increases, so too does the probability of failure.

    INTERVIEW
    ‘To play is fundamentally human’
    It’s been a long road for Microsoft’s gaming business since the launch of the first Xbox console in 2001. Rather than selling its gaming business, as some Wall Street analysts had urged, Microsoft doubled down and shifted from a console-centric approach toward a “ubiquitous global gaming ecosystem.” Its recently announced plan to purchase Activision Blizzard, the game maker behind Call of Duty and Candy Crush, is part of this strategy to compete in the traditional online gaming world as well as in virtual and augmented reality. McKinsey recently chatted with Sarah Bond, corporate vice president for game creator experience and ecosystem at Xbox, about how what happens in gaming translates to other industries.

    TECH FOR EXECS
    Are your application releases and updates continuous?
    Our experts serve up a periodic look at the technology concepts leaders need to understand to help their organizations grow and thrive in the digital age.
    What it is. Continuous integration and continuous delivery mean the practice of developing software applications in a fast, agile, and highly automated fashion. Today’s increasingly complex software applications require various developers to write different parts of an application. Continuous integration automates bringing those parts together and regularly merging and testing them to ensure that everything still works as expected. In continuous delivery, the application is built automatically and then put into a staging environment (an area set up just like the one the app will inhabit when live, though it actually isn’t live at this stage). Then, with just the click of a button, someone can send an application or update into the world. CD sometimes also stands for “continuous deployment,” which means that the application or update pushes out automatically rather than requiring someone to “hit the switch.”
    Why it’s essential. Back in the day (less than 20 years ago in these times of accelerated digital change), software applications were created using a waterfall approach—every step in the process took place only after the previous step was completed. As a result, it could take many months or years to develop and deploy (or release) an application. That snail’s pace doesn’t fly in today’s world, where applications power so many consumer and business activities, and developers must continually refresh the software to expand or upgrade its capabilities. Of course, you can’t sacrifice quality for speed—the automated testing in CI/CD ensures quality, and at a much faster pace than manual checks require (you can include some manual checks in the process if you like). CI/CD is a critical part of DevSecOps, the whole set of tools, practices, and philosophies involved in creating great applications quickly and securely, as well as MLOps, which takes the tenets of DevOps and applies them to the creation of AI applications powered by machine learning; these apps are now used by a majority of businesses.
    What the benefits are. It doesn’t take much explanation to see why you’d want your applications to be developed quickly, work correctly, and reach customers or internal users promptly. However, besides making users happy and staying ahead of the competition, these techniques also make your developers more productive and will help you attract the cream of the crop because they want to be more productive and spend less time doing tedious work.
    The fine print. Putting CI/CD in place isn’t just a matter of hooking up to the cloud and saying “Go!” to your developers. It requires cultural change and knowledge of agile practices to ensure that you’re not only hiring new talent with CI/CD experience but also upskilling your current developers.

    [Blog] Should your developers learn Kubernetes?

    Kubernetes, developed by Google, automates the deployment & orchestration of your applications with the help of a powerful, extensible API.

    Hi MD Abul

     

    When you create an application, you need to decide how best to deploy it to your users. If you choose to containerize the application, the server could get overloaded and users might not be able to access it during high server traffic or server downtime.

    You could choose to deploy the application on multiple hosts so that if one goes down others are still accessible. However, deploying an application on multiple connecting containers across multiple hosts, scaling them, and managing them can be a complex task.

    Kubernetes is a feasible alternative. This open-source platform developed by Google automates the deployment and orchestration of your applications with the help of a powerful, extensible API.

    In our latest blog post, we examine the pros and cons of Kubernetes, so you can determine whether it’s the solution for your team. Check it out and let us know what you think.

  • The Tyk Times: What it's like working at Tyk and more

    The Tyk Times: What it's like working at Tyk and more

    Employees reveal what it's like working at Tyk. We celebrate Community Award winners, chat about monetisation and migrating from Tyk to Kong

    Hey MD Abul. We handpicked these articles to keep you up to date with what's going on at Tyk and in the API management world. Enjoy! 

     

    Employees reveal 8 things they love about Tyk 

    No company would ever aspire to be a rubbish place to work. Yet not every business gets it right when it comes to delivering the ideal working environment. We think Tyk is doing pretty well in this respect. However, you can only really judge what an organisation is like to work for by the views of its staff. 

     

    That’s why, when we started thinking about working life at Tyk, we decided to talk to the people in the know – our global team of Tyklings. We asked them to give us the insider’s perspective – a no holds barred view of what it’s really like to work at Tyk. 

     

    API Monetisation Strategies

     

    When you’re building an API, you need to create a management strategy that maximises its potential. Monetisation is a key part of that. 

     

    There are multiple ways to make money from your API. In this article, you’ll learn about your options and when best to use each of them. Many of these options can be used concurrently, so even if you have an existing strategy, you may be able to incorporate the others.

    Migrating your open source API gateway from Kong to Tyk

     

    Why might you be considering moving from Kong to Tyk? In all likelihood, it’s because you need to do something that you can’t manage with the open source version of Kong. 

     

    Whatever your reason, Tyk’s “batteries included” approach means that our free, open source gateway can achieve what you need, straight out of the box. Let’s dive into the detail…

     

    Hearty congratulations to Tyk Community Award winner Darkweak!

    Yes, it’s that special time of year again! Time to roll out the virtual red carpet and congratulate the winners of the Tyk Community Awards. The Tyk Community Awards are Tyk’s chance to reach out and recognise outstanding contributions within the open source community.

     

    They’re our chance to highlight contributors who have gone above and beyond – contributors like Darkweak. Our excitement centres around Souin, Darkweak’s new Open Source caching tool, and its integration with Tyk. Read on to find out more about it.
