BeautyTech, BabyTech, Join FitTech, HeathTech At CES 2017 Las Vegas
BeautyTech, BabyTech, Join FitTech, HeathTech At CES 2017 Las Vegas Video
BeautyTech, BabyTech, Join FitTech, HeathTech At CES 2017 Las Vegas BeautyTech, BabyTech, Join FitTech, HealthTech at CES 2017 Las Vegas CES 2017 Las Vegas is the continuation of the expansion of the word “tech”. First, it was HeathTech, or tech devices for healthcare. Then there was “FitTech” which refers to tech gadgets for working out and fitness. Now, we have, and for the second year at CES, BeautyTech and Baby Tech. (Zennie62 coverage of CES 2017 sponsored by The Oakland Post and Sigma Technologies Global. Be sure to subscribe to Zennie62 on YouTube.) Overall, the establishment of these subsections of “tech” reflect the growing number of startups and gadgets that apply modern micro-computer electronics and programming to help solve problems we face in our everyday lives (like when to take a medication or measuring blood pressure reliably when a doctor is not available) or make some aspect of our daily practices easier to do. I vividly recall standing at the steps in the Las Vegas Convention Center South Hall two years ago, and marveling at how one section in front of me had grown between that year, 2013, and the previous CES 2012: The HealthTech Area, or technical gadgets with a healthcare focus. Then, in 2014, that area was changed and added fit models riding stationary bikes, and running, and wearing not much at all, and to the objective of getting you to check out the newest in something called FitTech, which others call Wearable Tech. The ruler of the roost was a then seven-year-old company called FitBit. Now, FitBit is a public company worth $4 billion, and worried about the large and growing number of startups aiming to under-cut its dominance with devices like Skulpt Chisel, which I vlogged about at CES 2016. Much fun was had with the amazing Laura Myren, who explains that it measures body fat and muscle quality. Just the thing for after-gym evaluation of your workout. Ok, so what's BeautyTech and BabyTech all about? Well, while all that's happening, other entrepreneurs are pivoting toward two related and even more concentrated areas of Wearable Tech: BeautyTech and BabyTech. As CES itself explains in introducing the Baby Tech Summit, the term focuses on devices “From smart car seats and breast pumps to at-home medical diagnostics tools and cutting-edge cognitive learning wearables.” BabyTech is so new as a niche that a search reveals as the top-most Google result, the blog for the 2016 CES BabyTech Summit. There's no dominant player in this area – yet. The same can be said for BeautyTech, which one observer, Arabelle Sicardi, wrote at Racked.com was really about robot makeup artists, but since that advancement has not been introduced yet, we will have to make do with such creations as “Metaverse Nails”. Sicardi explains that Metaverse Nails are “augmented reality, 3-D printed nails that work in conjunction with your phone. In order to get the entire experience, you have to download the corresponding app on either the Apple Store or Google Play. It’s a cool, deeply kawaii app, something you can get lost in for a while lubricated by your own boredom or a lot of weed. Highly stoner-friendly, and perfect for those with the attention span and aesthetic inclinations of an uber-feminine six year old.” Which Sicardi says she is. Stay tuned for more on BeautyTech, Baby Tech, and FitTech from Zennie62 at CES 2017, Las Vegas.

Jed York SF 49ers CEO Fires GM, Head Coach, Lacks Long Term Plan
Jed York SF 49ers CEO Fires GM, Head Coach, Lacks Long Term Plan Video
Jed York, the San Francisco 49ers CEO and team owner, is someone I really like and enjoy talking to whenever and where-ever I see him. He's a gracious, thoughtful, smart, and engaging person to talk with. So, it's in that sprit that I write this, rather than the attack-dog, insulting style of a certain SF Bay Area columnist. But I digress. Jed York has a problem. If I were to walk into Mr. York's office, say, next week, and asked to see his five-year to ten-year plan for the San Francisco 49ers, he couldn't present it to me. Not because he didn't want me to see it, but because he does not have one. That, even though he started with the 49ers in their office of strategic planning. As one who's background is in urban planning, I don't need to see his office to know what is going on. There is no book. No understanding of football business dynamics. And no plan. How else to explain this: four head coaches in four years? Working backward, as now former San Francisco 49ers Head Coaches we have whoever Jed's going to hire next in 2017 (or his new general manager brings in), Chip Kelly in 2016, Jim Tomsula in 2015, and Jim Harbaugh in 2014. How can anyone claim to build anything that resembles organizational security with a track record like that? The Jed York-run SF 49ers organizationally look like The City of Alameda, California before my good friend John Russo was hired as city manager in 2011. In order to avoid being one more person going out of a yearly revolving door of city managers, Russo asked for, and was given, a five year contract. While he served four years of that five-year contract, he had enough time to solve a number of key organizational problems and in the process install his own policies and approaches. Russo was able to walk away from that job and go down to Riverside as its new city manager in 2015 having left behind a long list of accomplishments and a better ran city. Russo had a plan; Jed York does not have a plan. Because Jed York lacks an overall plan, he and his charges will go into a search for a head coach and a general manager without any really good, robust checklist to find and then evaluate potential candidates. Here's all that Jed York needs to consider not just in hiring a new general manager and a new head coach for the San Francisco 49ers, but for with respect to the future of the place that Bill Walsh built. For the General Manager role and scored on a scale of 1 to 10: 1. Does the general manager candidate have NFL budget and business operations experience? 2. Does the general manager candidate understand or have experience with the salary cap and capology? 3. Does the general manager candidate have NFL (or managerial) contract negotiation experience? 4. Is the general manager candidate known to NFL players (which helps in drawing free agents and building a roster of players). 5. Is the general manager candidate known to NFL agents (which helps in drawing free agents and building a roster of players). 6. Does the general manager know who's who in coaching and administration at the pro and college level (which helps in hiring coaches)? 7. Can the general manager actually draw-up and discuss a football play and talk about how football strategy has changed? 8. Can the general manager identify and discuss what innovations in football strategy have developed over the last 20 years? The person that Jed York hires should be given a free-path to seek out and hire the head coach that fits a criteria which includes player relationships, football strategy innovation, game management experience, and roster movement experience. Jed should also remember that the next GM can just as easily be a woman as a man, and black or Asian or Latino, as well as white – that's right. Talented female NFL professionals like Amy Trask and Katie Blackburn have established that a woman can do the job of general manager, president, or Jed's role, CEO, very well. Jed York has to use the criteria, and be flexible where he thinks that someone has enough of a strength in one area to overcome a weakness in another – and also be aware that the person being considered knows what their own shortcomings are. Then pull the trigger and bring that person in for a five-year contract - and then stick to it. The Dallas Cowboys first owner, the late Clint Murchison, Jr., did just that – ok, something like that. Clint Murchison, Jr knew that, in the young, innovative, head coach he hired Tom Landry, he had a person who formed a long term plan for the development of the Dallas Cowboys – he just needed time to make it work. So, when the Cowboys first year under Landry ended without a win, and the next five years without a winning season, in 1964, Murchison gave Landry a 10-year contract, then hired Tex Schramm to run the organization, and stepped out the way.
