10 Things Your Customers Wish You Knew About ThemHelp Scout
1. A document outlines 10 studies revealing things customers wish businesses knew about them. The studies show that customers value good service over fast service, appreciate personalization and will pay for it, remember businesses that remember their names, are surprised and pleased by unexpected gestures, and see loyalty programs as more valuable if they seem already started.
2. Additional studies discussed found that stories are an effective way for businesses to connect with customers, customers can be a resource for innovation, associating a brand with fun times rather than savings influences customer perceptions, and images related to money can make customers more self-centered.
3. The document concludes by promoting a customer service product and providing a link to start a free trial.
The document discusses the history and development of artificial intelligence over the past 70 years. It outlines some of the key milestones in AI research from the early work in the 1950s to modern advances in deep learning. While progress has been significant, fully general artificial intelligence that can match or exceed human levels of intelligence remains an ongoing challenge that researchers continue working to achieve.

The What If Technique presented by Motivate DesignMotivate Design
Why "What If"...?
The What If Technique tackles the challenge of engaging a creative, disruptive mindset when it comes to design thinking and crafting innovative user experiences.
Thinking disruptively is a disruptive thing to do, which means it's a very hard thing to do, especially when you add in risk-averse business leaders and company cultures, who hold on tight to psychological blocks, corporate lore, and excuse personas that stifle creativity and possibilities (see www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for more details).
The What If Technique offers key steps, tools and examples to help you achieve incremental changes that promote disruptive thinking, overcome barriers to creativity, and lead to big, innovative differences for business leaders, companies, and ultimately user experiences and products.
Let's find out what's what together! Explore your "What Ifs" with us. See www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for details about the What If Technique, studio workshops, the book, case studies and more downloads--including a the sample chapter "Corporate Lore and Blocks to Creativity"

Concert 4 > 29 nov. Festival Jazzycolors Depuis 2003, le festival Jazzycolors ne cesse de grandir et pour cette 12e édition, il ne compte pas moins de 25 concerts qui ont lieu dans 13 centres culturels de la capitale, du 04 au 29 novembre.
Organisé par les centres culturels étrangers de Paris, le festival Jazzycolors repose sur un concept simple : faire découvrir au public français les meilleurs groupes de jazz de chaque pays participant, avec trois mots clés : qualité, originalité, innovation. Depuis 2003, le festival Jazzycolors ne cesse de grandir et pour cette 12e édition, il ne compte pas moins de 25 concerts qui ont lieu dans 13 centres culturels de la capitale, du 04 au 29 novembre. Avec une politique de tarifs attractifs - de 5 à 20 € par billet - le festival vous invite à découvrir des sons venus d’ailleurs.
Fidèle à sa devise, le festival accueille aussi bien des artistes de renom que des musiciens émergeants et entraine le public dans un voyage éclectique aux univers bien différents. Des standards classiques revisités aux influences de la musique du monde, en passant par le funk et le groove, une chose est sûre : tous les amateurs du genre trouveront leur bonheur.
Anciennement parrainé par Daniel Humair, c’est le pianiste d’origine serbe, Bojan Z qui a repris le flambeau en 2008 et, qui, comme chaque année – c’est devenu une tradition ! - propose un concert dans le cadre du festival. Cette fois-ci il sera accompagné du tromboniste allemand Nils Wogram, pour le concert d’ouverture le 4 novembre dans l’auditorium du Carreau du Temple, le nouvel établissement culturel de la Ville de Paris.
Un nouveau partenariat voit le jour, cette année, avec l’ONJ, l’Orchestre National de Jazz, actuellement occupant-résident au Carreau du Temple et en charge de toute leur programmation jazz. Il y proposera un concert exceptionnel en présentant son nouveau projet « Europa Berlin », dans le cadre de Jazzycolors, le 22 novembre.
Plusieurs partenariats ont été renouvelés cette année avec d’autres festivals de jazz : la 2ème édition du festival Automne nordique – festival pluridisciplinaire organisé par les centres culturels des pays nordiques, le festival Be.Jazz ! – festival de jazz du Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles qui programmera le saxophoniste Nicolas Kummert ainsi que le festival Jazz.dk de la Maison du Danemark qui accueillera Marie Carmen Koppel.

The document discusses how the term "world music" is becoming outdated as new artists draw from global urban music styles rather than focusing on traditional folk styles. It highlights several up-and-coming groups like Buraka Som Sistema and MIA that mix genres like kuduro, electro-rock, and baile funk. While events like the BBC World Music Awards still honor more acoustic styles, the democratization of the internet allows these new international artists to find audiences without labels' help. The term "world music" is increasingly seen as too limiting, and the music industry will need to recognize changes in the global music landscape.
African club music is gaining popularity in London. Promoters like Eric Soul have spent years trying to bring contemporary African sounds to London clubs. While African music events have occurred for decades, they often focused on traditional styles rather than modern genres from the continent. Recently, new promoters have emerged playing emerging African fusion styles like Afrobeat, kuduro, and coupé décalé. This has helped shift perceptions and attract diverse crowds no longer tied only to Caribbean culture. New generations of African artists fusing traditional and electronic styles make the music more accessible to European audiences. Promoters are now seizing on these genres and finding audiences open to exploring new global dance music styles from Africa.
Jamie Renton is given the opportunity to DJ at a local bar called Darbucka. With no prior DJ experience, he nervously agrees. At his first lesson, the resident DJ Karim shows Jamie the basics of fading between songs and mixing beats. For his debut, Jamie struggles at first but eventually finds his rhythm. The party crowd enjoys Jamie's global music selection as well as more familiar hits. Karim advises Jamie to play what he loves rather than just pleasing the crowd. Jamie interviews several expert DJs for tips, including Dave Hucker, a pioneer of world music DJing, and Eric Soul, who blends global beats for clubs.
The document discusses the state of hip-hop music in Africa. It notes that in 1996, sales figures for Wu-Tang Clan's album in Africa were only 73 units, showing a lack of music infrastructure. However, hip-hop has grown significantly in popularity in Africa since then, blending with local sounds and addressing social issues. The biggest hip-hop artists now come from countries like Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, and East Africa. Challenges remain in properly marketing and selling African music due to a lack of funding and industry structures.
Eric Soul is a London-based DJ and cultural activist from Rwanda who founded Wahala TV and Afrogroov to promote contemporary African music. Through his show Wahala, Eric highlights African artists blending traditional sounds with modern influences. His goal is to document the evolution of African music and shift perceptions of African heritage. Afrogroov started as a club night mixing African styles with urban genres like hip hop and has grown into a collective behind Wahala that aims to give economic relevance to African music and bust stereotypes. Eric believes interest in new African music represents a cultural shift as people become less in denial of African identity.
