Hello, I’m Glib, International Business Graduate Analyst and BI Freelancer Blockchain Enthusiast Beginner JavaScript Developer Your “Numbers Guy”

Since my first internship I have been assembling my own toolkit of models and frameworks designed to tackle the challenges faced on a daily basis across projects and departments. The good news is that most of the companies share the same problems, just to a various extent. If you’re looking for someone who can not only optimize processes for your project or department, but help you assess and track your projects, just like that agile project from five minutes ago, you can get a glimpse of what I can offer shortly. On top of that I am obsessed with technology and experimental economics. These are closely connected because one helps to explain and evaluate the other. Blockchain, Augmented Reality, Gamification, Virtual and Behavioral Economics, Game Theory… I would love to share how these could help your company gain a competitive advantage. I'd love to learn more about your organization’s needs and how my work can support you in tackling those. I love what I do and there is a great chance that I love what you do too!

Hint: Some elements of the portfolio are interactive, linking to relevant publications and basic information to the topics mentioned.

Blockchain is expected to have a bigger influence on the world than IoT and AI combined. While some people have heard about the latter, not so many are aware of blockchain and the stir it is causing throughout the business world right now. My ambition is to further develop my JavaScript skills in order to learn Solidity language to program smart contracts on Ethereum engine. Blockchain basics:

Innovation & Technology

I have a passion for the newest technology, especially if it is going to change the world. Most of the companies, especially in more conservative European markets are lagging behind their more tech-savvy western peers. This presents a one of its kind opportunity for your company to adopt the technology and truly become a

first mover in respective industry.

Blockchain

Augmented Reality is expected to revolutionize more or less everything. Bringing digital content from the traditional screens right to your eyesight. AR gives the user a true possibility to relive past experiences by blending the "real reality" with an appropriate mix of digital content. It gives any company a possibility to create unique experiences and journeys for its customers, which are limited only by the fantasy and creativity of the creators.

AR / VR “Blockchain is the second

most important invention after the Internet and we are currently in the nineties of blockchain.” Don Tapscott

“Augmented reality was once a

dream of science fiction. But internet was also once a dream and so were the computers and smartphones.” Mark Zuckerberg

• Industry knowledge acquired through books, courses, webinars, lectures, forums and from a network of industry leaders;

• Opportunity evaluation (scenario-based); • Business case creation with a technology roadmap; • Raising corporate awareness of a given technology.

My offering

Innovation, however, can not only be connected to the newest tech. There can be also innovative approaches to think about, analyse and improve daily business

activities. I like to apply this knowledge I have acquired through online courses to my analysis to sometimes come up with creative solutions for a problem.

Game Theory

“If we all go for the blonde….” A Beautiful Mind movie

Innovation in Business

Gamification

Behavioral Economics

Model Thinking

Being able to break down any interaction or situation into a “game”, identifying optimal outcomes and strategies. Is a popular strategy development tool.

“We like to think of it as behaviour management. It’s how to get people to do more stuff, more often, for more periods of time.”

Application of game mechanics and human motivation principals to products and processes to motivate people and design more meaningful UX.

Thinking about any processes in terms of models and being able to better understand these and influence these. Network, chaos, choice and growth models, Markov and Lyapunov functions, replicator dynamics, mechanism design etc.

Identifying the impact of various personal and psychological factors on economic decisions and being able to model and stimulate a certain behavior. Unlike personalization, it does not give the customers what they want, but rather makes them want what they are given.

“Las Vegas is busy every day, so we know that not everyone

is rational.”

Other certifications:

A model based on Earned Value Method framework for tracking any sort of project, be it agile or a classic waterfall. The model has several project development and budget allocation scenarios. It self-updates and tracks live period-to-period performance, budget, and forecasts future performance by using statistical forecasting models of your choice. This can give an insight early on in the project and budget inefficiencies and provide a project manager with suggestions for performance improvement.

Here you can find just a few examples of my work referred to on the previous pages. As was noted, however, the templates and frameworks are highly flexible

and can be customized to the needs of your company or department.

“The desire to analyse, manipulate and securely store data is now essential for any business in the current climate. With cognitive computing on the horizon, there is no shortage of work to be done. Analytical skills, alongside coding and

testing skills are key skills in the modern marketplace.”

Who Needs Analytics?

- The Independent, 2017

According to a McKinsey report, the importance of analytics in the eyes of managers has dropped significantly in 2016. But after looking at the data, the companies which extensively use analytics to meet data-driven decisions outperform their less analytics-keen peers by the margin of 90% when it comes to such KPIs as Profit, Sales and ROI.

Where digital natives were built for analytics, legacy companies have to do the hard work of overhauling or changing existing systems. Some companies have invested heavily in technology but have not yet changed their organizations so they can make the most of these investments. The biggest hurdles to an effective analytics program are a lack of leadership support and communication, ill-fitting organizational structures, and troubles finding and retaining the right people for the job.

New analytical techniques can fuel discovery and innovation. Above all, businesses no longer have to go on gut instinct; they can use data and analytics to make faster decisions and more accurate forecasts supported by a mountain of evidence. Organizations that can harness these capabilities effectively will be able to create significant value and differentiate themselves, while others will find themselves increasingly at a disadvantage.

I like to think about myself as a mixture between analyst and a dreamer. One might think these two contradict each other, analytics being something pragmatic, while dream is something abstract, a spark. I believe that my analytical reasoning and tools come very handy to build a model or a business case out of a dream. Once a dream transforms into a quantified substance, it becomes an innovation. And this is what I strive for!
