management for billing and payment. Such integrations are easily customised and managed within the Billetterie® Platform. Case Study

At Sword SA, the focus is on process automation and cloud integration. Our integration platform is based on Billetterie® Software. The digitisation platform focuses on service processes, linking front-end services to back-end systems and cloud resources. The platform integrates business processes and workflows for collaboration, case management and service level management. Billetterie® is a product platform developed by Sword SA. It is derived from the Sword Group’s collaborative effort and years of experience in process automation and enterprise content management. Located in both Johannesburg and Paris, the development team collaborated to incorporate global experience in the design and enhancement of the software platform. Our software and professional services teams have partnered with different organisations in the private and public sectors to develop and deploy service digitisation solutions. The Billetterie® Platform is a codeless automation workbench for service processes. It has native modules for service automation, knowledge management, performance management, user management. Over the years, standard workflows have been developed for customer service management, IT service management, intellectual property administration and law firm practice management. The automation service is user-driven and implementable without a need for expensive technical skills. API Management Billetterie® API management allows bespoke and third-party solutions to be programmatically integrated to the service management system. The platform is succinctly designed to integrate third party APIs from various technologies for example, the SnapLogic iPaaS that provides an enabling layer that is used to integrate public and private resources to the Billetterie® service management engine. The integration points are defined flexibly. Data and content exchanges between the Billetterie® Platform and other systems take place in real-time or asynchronously. For instance, a service request may be initiated from a CRM process, passed on to Billetterie® for resource allocation and service level management. The resolution of the service request may necessitate a further integration to a legacy ERP system for resolution and a financial

The South African Commission for Intellectual Property & Companies (CIPC) was the first major user of the integrated platform in 2014. The platform enabled the seamless integration of the client services to the back-end processes of IP administration, comprising new application, renewal, restoration and deregistration services. The system has since been enhanced to include modules for performance and knowledge management as well as a chat robot, to support users navigating the system portals and access relevant knowledge. Beyond the automation workflows of the national office systems for intellectual property management, standard workflows have been developed for IT service management, customer service management and law firm practice. The organisation utilised Billetterie Software as a self-service portal to give 30,000+ clients 24×7 access to critical information, processes, and services, whilst being serviced by more than 600+ service respondents (users) through seamlessly created prioritised workflows at the back-end, on a multitiered service model. “We recognized that the status quo was not sustainable,” said Elena Zdravkova, senior manager of the company’s Patent & Design practice. “If we wanted to support our clients in transforming IP rights management and filing, we had to transform our internal IT and business operations.”. Sword SA was engaged to assist with the digitisation of manual processes and elevate the organisation towards cloud-based computing. This allowed the organisation to create an online community of users, empower them with service management features and the ability to drive service-level compliant deliverables.

Sweden

DR. TIGRAN HAAS CEO/Director of Centre, Research Program Manager & Associate Professor FIRM PROFILE

educational programs at KTH. Tigran Haas’ expertise, current research and teaching focus on contemporary trends and paradigms in urban planning & urban design, new urbanism, sustainable urbanism, social housing and urban transformations, digital cities and city development and sustainability. Tigran Haas is the former Director of the Civitas Athenaeum Laboratory (CAL) at KTH in Stockholm, Sweden.

The Centre for the Future of Places has been established to promote sustainable urban development by shifting the urban discourse from objects to places in order to promote healthy and livable cities, within the disciplines of Urban Planning and Urban Design. We envision a networked community of leaders actively working across sectors, frontiers, and disciplines to build a more just, sustainable, and prosperous world.

Key works: New Urbanism & Beyond - Designing Cities for the Future, Rizzoli, New York 2008 and Sustainable Urbanism & Beyond - Rethinking Cities for the Future, New York 2012, Rizzoli and In The Post- Urban World - Emergent Transformation of Cities and Regions in the Innovative Global Economy (w/ Hans Westlund), Routledge, New York and London 2018.

Our mission is that Centre for the Future of Places, aside from becoming an International Hub for Research on Public Space & Beyond, doing studies on the subject from a global perspective, also becomes a clearing house for ideas and new proposals on how the cities should be planned, designed, and retrofitted best to meet both today’s and tomorrow’s challenges with the focus on public places and urban spaces.

The task of the Centre is to take a holistic approach in defining, classifying and establishing the public space as an independent academic research field.

In 2003, Aviad Goz, the founder and Chairman of N.E.W.S.® Coaching and Training and the founder of Momentum Group, conducted a research to identify the reasons why people, teams and organizations get stuck in their journey. Thanks to the decades of working with thousands of organizations globally, this research bore fruits and Aviad identified four main reasons: ​ • lack of direction and vision • lack of engagement and motivation • lack of planning and execution • limiting beliefs and barriers ​ In a eureka moment Aviad organized those reasons in the form of a four directional Compass, that can allow effective navigation through crossroads and changes. In the years to come Aviad and his team set off to create a suite of solutions based on the N.E.W.S.® Compass™. The success that ensued led to the development of a value driven network of professional training and coaching partners, all dedicated to support our clients in their quest to develop and thrive in times of change.

Oceania & Global Most Unique Rural Retreat - 2020

Australia

Set against a backdrop of the sublime landscape that is the Snowy Mountains, Elm Cottage Tumut is a welcoming haven of tranquillity which accommodates everyone, from individuals through to couples, families and even pets. David Sheldon, half of the husband and wife team that run the establishment, shares an insight into this unique venue and how it aims to welcome guests from all walks of life with open arms.

Elm Cottage, Tumut, is the brainchild of Deborah and David Sheldon. Developed from an overstocked, drought ravaged 62-acre parcel of land in 2003, the establishment has since morphed into a thriving, much sort-after rural retreat for both the domestic and international visitors. David discusses how the establishment has flourished since he and Deborah first created the concept. “When we first planned Elm Cottage we believed it would be the ideal base camp for potential guests to discover the magnificent Snowy Mountains and Riverina Regions. However, it has become for many of our guest’s their holiday destination, hence our vision and philosophy “The Elm Cottage experience is ever evolving”. At present, five cottages have been developed, with the latest ‘Yellow Box’ fitted out for the use of those with mobility issues, as well as acting as a unique small business events facility or wedding reception venue.” Alongside its exceptional range of facilities, Elm Cottage also provides welcoming, friendly hospitality so that guests feel relaxed throughout their stay, as David highlights. “From the moment they arrive, we aim to offer guests an exceptional experience that will stay with them for many years to come. If they arrive during daylight hours, Elm Cottage has a reception area at the main house where guests are greeted and for first timers escorted to their cottage and provided with a familiarisation tour. If guests arrive after dark they are advised to proceed directly to their cottage and relax, the lights are turned on and the reverse cycle air conditioning is on. We then catch up with them in morning. We are available 24hrs a day so that they never have to want for anything. “Fundamentally, we at Elm Cottage believe that, as it is it is our guest’s holiday we should provide an obtrusive service, which our guests appreciate. We are available if they require assistance, otherwise their holiday or break is uninterrupted. The cottage facilities and fit out are of the highest quality,

whilst maintaining a rustic charm. When over 60% of your guests are repeat visitors and the average length of stay is over five days, you must be doing something right! I believe we offer all the creature comforts of home and provide an ideal sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of city life.” Although tranquillity and peaceful surroundings are what guests look for when they visit Elm Cottage, Deborah and David are conscious that they also require all the modern comforts of home. To ensure that we are always ahead of our guests’ everevolving expectations, we are constantly innovative, reinvesting and adapting around their needs. Elm Cottage was the first with a website within the region and to date we have remained at the forefront of guest expectations with available technology. Their most significant development however has been a ‘pet friendly’ environment, and this is something we have incorporated to ensure that guests are able to bring their four-legged-friends to stay in comfort. As he explores the future, David is excited about the developments he and Deborah are undertaking over the coming years to further enhance their already incredible success. “Overall, at Elm Cottage, our philosophy is simple: ‘the Elm Cottage experience is ever evolving’. As such, we are currently at the next stage of installing car charging station for all types of vehicles. We will continue to strive for a carbon free retreat and provide our guests with the very highest possible standards of hospitality so that they continue to return and recommend our perfect country haven.”

Oceania

sheIQ Life Pty Ltd There’s a very different way to live …where stress and exhaustion don’t exist and clarity comes easily. I am the firm, and the firm is me.

throughout the world.

I am an internationally renowned Author and Simplicity Expert who spent almost two decades as an awardwinning executive before experiencing a life-changing event that forced me to stop and ask the question: “What if there’s a better way to live?”

In the middle of the pandemic, I published an online program to assist busy professional women reduce stress and beat burnout.

Every day is dedicated to teaching people there’s another way to live so they can reduce stress, build resilience and easily make changes in their everyday lives – ultimately leading to a more meaningful life and improved mental and physical health and wellbeing. sheIQ Life was founded to provide products and services focused on assisting people to reconnect with themselves and their community, to repersonalise their life and to establish simple yet highly effective systems that build happiness in every quarter of life. When every individual in a unit learns to be smart with their own lives, collectively the whole unit thrives. I am sourced globally as an expert on simplifying life: by organisations wanting to provide effective training, mentoring and leadership development programs, by media for comment, interviews and contributions and I blog regularly for global platforms.

My business spans many markets all across the globe. In person I have delivered keynotes and facilitated workshops, training and mentoring programs in Australia, the US and the UK. In the online world my work has reached all corners of the globe. There’s not an organisation on the planet that isn’t affected by the significant impacts of stress and burnout. My work, therefore, reaches into every industry and every country. My clients range from organisations (of all sizes and from all industries) who want bespoke health & wellness programs or individual workshops through to individuals wanting to buy a book or engage me directly for professional mentoring services. As well as publishing three of my own books to 5-star, international critical acclaim, I have also been featured in ‘The Book of Amazing People’, ‘Reboot Your Life’, and ‘Successful Women in Business’. I am regularly invited as a guest interviewee on live TV, blogs, podcasts, radio, Facebook Live, YouTube and member sites situated

Affordable, bespoke programs are what the world needs right now. Responding to the direct needs of my clients, I develop tailored programs, no matter where they are in the world. I work with people globally through corporate programs, conference platforms, retreats, professional mentoring and in the online environment. Through my work I share practical and easily implementable steps that allow individuals to tailor-make the healthy, happy AND highly successful life that is just right for them. Having experienced burnout – and a complete breakdown – personally, I know what it is like to experience what I can only describe as a ‘bone-deep’ exhaustion. And not just an ‘I missed a few nights sleep and now I’m tired’ kind of exhaustion ... but the kind that is mentally, emotionally and physically debilitating. I knew I was unwell. I knew I was exhausted. I knew I needed to make some changes. But I did nothing and pushed on anyway. And then, I broke spectacularly. It took me three years to recover to a point where I knew who I was, what I wanted to be doing in the world and how I wanted to be doing it. This was the catalyst to founding sheIQ Life. The more my work goes into the world and reaches people from all different walks of life and in all different corners of the globe, the more I understand that this is such a common theme running through so many people’s lives.

We give everything we have to everyone around us. We don’t ever stop to consider – or understand – what that means for our own emotional, physical and mental wellbeing.

GLOBAL 100 | 2020


Oceania & Global Most Influential Female Entrepreneur - 2020 - Bronwen Sciortino, sheIQ Life Pty Ltd

Until recently, it’s been a taboo subject to talk about. But thanks to the World Health Organisation redefining burnout in May 2019 – and the global pandemic bringing mental health firmly into focus – stress and burnout are now being openly spoken about. Globally, stress, exhaustion and burnout are rapidly rising, and the stats show that women are the most likely to suffer from them.

That’s where my work comes in. It goes beyond the generic solutions that have been offered for too long. I don’t have answers for an individual’s specific problems – how could I? I don’t know all the things that go together to make them the unique individual that they are. What I do have, however, is a set of principles, tools and activities that allow individuals to understand themselves and create the solution that is perfect for them. This has created one of the greatest complexities for my organisation because I am unique in what I offer. It’s meant that I have needed to create tools and resources that can be delivered in a ‘one to many’ format whilst still allowing individual customisation by the end user. When people get access to my resources, their ability to grow and develop is accelerated because they’re able to take those resources and create a customised solution that matches what they actually need. There are two massive issues that individuals face when it comes to reducing the impact of stress, exhaustion and burnout in their lives. The first: almost every individual relies on the organisation they work for to provide them with training and development that will help them to reduce their stress. This is a problem because on the whole, the providers of these types of training tend to deliver it in a group format that doesn’t help the individual to find their own answers. The second: everyone’s been taught to rely on others to tell them what their problems are. They spend so much time, and waste so much money, doing what someone else tells them is right for them.

There is no cookie-cutter approach that works for everyone. Each person is a unique and extraordinary individual. They need unique and extraordinary answers and solutions. My work helps solve both these problems; it allows organisations to provide training in a group format, but the tools can be individualised by each person. This allows them to find their own answers and create their own solutions.

Oceania

And it is crisis proof. While most of the world has collapsed under the strain of the chaos created by the pandemic, my business (and me within it) easily did the opposite. Because I operate from a simple platform, I didn’t have high levels of stress coming into the pandemic; I was fully fuelled and ready to go. I was already operating in the online environment, so I moved more of my focus there and created bespoke online programs and keynotes, spending far less time in the face-to-face environment. Instead, I stepped into creating products, resources and tools that would assist people in re-centring their lives and being able to move forward in a different way.
