represent and better manage the complexity and multidimensional nature of the IoT. All of them agree on the fact that the system can be described as divided into different “stacks”.
The model proposed by Harbor Research specifies five layers7: to integrate smart systems into business processes means managing each of these these five layers at a time, restructuring long-held assumptions about how users, devices, systems, data and networks interact. This is definitely not an easy task, although the “smart office” is rapidly becoming one of the features which help to attract and retain the best talent, as is demonstrated by the need for many companies to create new managerial roles, such as CPO (Chief People Officer) or CDO (Chief Digital Officer) and even a CEXO (Chief Experience Officer), whose role in the office is to emphasize the impact of digital experience for people at work8.
MACHINE (INTELLIGENCE) + HUMAN (INTELLIGENCE) = COLLABORATIVE (INTELLIGENCE)
