End of Year Review is coming up. This is my first one in-house and im not great at selling myself. Anyone have suggestions for what things should be included?

Question:
I just completed an RPA pilot with UiPath. The bot gets an email, logs in to our Web ERP, downloads a bunch of reports, and final step is to update Excel formulas and models (vlookups etc.) and send email
User keyboard time of 2 hours now shrunk down to 0 hours.
The bot is running on a vm 24/7 waiting on the email.
Interestingly, the bot does everything well but fails on the final step of updating Excel models.
If someone is logged into the VM, no errors and completes the work. Help?

Apologies if this had been brought up before, but in the “long run” (ie. within the next 3-4 years) how do you see the traveling business model being set up for each one of the MBB’s? What percentage of travel will it be per month? Do you think there will be more flexibility with hybrid? If you only want to be staffed on local projects - can that be better accommodated?

A friend of mine is upset with me because I didn’t participate in a “hot sauce challenge” (yup, gulping down a shot glass of hot sauce) to spread awareness about a disease her mother suffers from. I’ve shown my support in other ways but I was never going to swallow hot sauce. Am I a jerk?

My team is getting frustrated at me (COO) for constantly switching directions. I don’t blame them, it’s a problem. I get one idea in my head, go all out on it for a week, and the next week I have something completely different to focus on. Who else struggles to commit and trust the process?

Facebook Ads after iOS 14 changes.

I'll share my experience and urge you to share yours:

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

A. >75% iOS users denied tracking. They are no longer tracked across websites/apps. Facebook lost its edge.
B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

What's your experience? Let's all learn.
