WEBVTT
1 00:03:07.940 ⇒ 00:03:08.930 Mustafa Raja: Paint.
2 00:03:10.020 ⇒ 00:03:10.920 Brylle Girang: Hello, man.
3 00:03:11.480 ⇒ 00:03:12.460 Mustafa Raja: Hey, how are you?
4 00:03:13.070 ⇒ 00:03:15.080 Brylle Girang: Good, good. How are you doing?
5 00:03:15.780 ⇒ 00:03:17.120 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I’m doing good.
6 00:03:18.450 ⇒ 00:03:19.790 Brylle Girang: How was your weekend?
7 00:03:20.110 ⇒ 00:03:24.399 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, weekend was good. I had some friends come over from…
8 00:03:24.540 ⇒ 00:03:29.590 Mustafa Raja: Oh, yeah. The city’s, yeah, I just hung out with them the whole weekend.
9 00:03:31.520 ⇒ 00:03:37.139 Brylle Girang: Amazing. So, we watched Project Hail Mary with Ryan Gosling. It was amazing.
10 00:03:37.220 ⇒ 00:03:38.310 Mustafa Raja: Oh.
11 00:03:38.310 ⇒ 00:03:40.709 Brylle Girang: Do you like watching movies?
12 00:03:41.090 ⇒ 00:03:47.230 Mustafa Raja: Oh yeah, I love that. I just haven’t been able to watch any movies recently.
13 00:03:47.960 ⇒ 00:03:51.829 Mustafa Raja: But yeah, I used to binge-watch a lot, and I love that.
14 00:03:52.470 ⇒ 00:03:54.910 Brylle Girang: Yeah, watch it, it’s amazing.
15 00:03:55.190 ⇒ 00:03:56.410 Mustafa Raja: Okay, yeah.
16 00:03:56.410 ⇒ 00:03:56.890 Brylle Girang: Okay.
17 00:03:56.890 ⇒ 00:03:57.359 Mustafa Raja: If I’m listening.
18 00:03:57.360 ⇒ 00:04:04.599 Brylle Girang: So… I wanted to walk you through our OKRs for learning and development, especially since you
19 00:04:04.750 ⇒ 00:04:08.670 Brylle Girang: Committed that you want to join our movement here.
20 00:04:10.270 ⇒ 00:04:12.730 Brylle Girang: I’m sharing my screen, can you see my screen?
21 00:04:12.970 ⇒ 00:04:13.640 Mustafa Raja: Yep.
22 00:04:14.170 ⇒ 00:04:23.970 Brylle Girang: Alright, so here are the OKRs, so what I did here is that for initiative, for each initiative, by the way, if you haven’t yet, it might be…
23 00:04:24.740 ⇒ 00:04:27.620 Brylle Girang: But if you… 13.
24 00:04:29.330 ⇒ 00:04:30.760 Brylle Girang: Share this with you.
25 00:04:31.520 ⇒ 00:04:37.319 Brylle Girang: If you… Read through the plan here, so that you have the full context.
26 00:04:37.830 ⇒ 00:04:42.389 Brylle Girang: But our four initiatives are the revenue-driven learning.
27 00:04:42.980 ⇒ 00:04:48.310 Brylle Girang: break for standards, literacy, feedback loop, and change management, the service line enablement.
28 00:04:48.670 ⇒ 00:04:57.160 Brylle Girang: So the first one, revenue-driven learning, this is where we’re trying to get people certified, and at the same time, we’re trying to make L&D
29 00:04:57.520 ⇒ 00:05:01.320 Brylle Girang: as an actual service line within Brainforge.
30 00:05:01.950 ⇒ 00:05:02.520 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.
31 00:05:02.520 ⇒ 00:05:16.889 Brylle Girang: This second initiative is us pushing our standards to the whole team, and this includes making sure that AI is actually being adopted by the whole business, and not just, you know, the AI service team.
32 00:05:17.640 ⇒ 00:05:21.259 Brylle Girang: The third one is making sure that we have a robust
33 00:05:21.380 ⇒ 00:05:25.010 Brylle Girang: feedback loop and change management system within Brainforge, so that
34 00:05:25.390 ⇒ 00:05:44.839 Brylle Girang: all updates, all new features are actually thought to the whole team, but this is mainly on me. And then lastly, service line enablement. This is where we need… I specifically need your help when it comes to building stuff that your service line will be using.
35 00:05:45.410 ⇒ 00:05:47.610 Brylle Girang: That is also AI-empowered, right?
36 00:05:48.300 ⇒ 00:05:51.780 Brylle Girang: So yeah, that’s a recap, and anything unclear there?
37 00:05:54.140 ⇒ 00:06:02.819 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, that’s pretty clear. Do I have a certain set of tasks, right now? Yeah.
38 00:06:03.500 ⇒ 00:06:22.279 Brylle Girang: Yeah, so, for this week, I’m going to dive into, like, the specific tasks that we’re making, but I just wanted to clarify these OKRs that I will be assigning to our co-champions. So, by co-champions, I mean that’s you and Amber.
39 00:06:22.470 ⇒ 00:06:23.500 Brylle Girang: Okay.
40 00:06:23.910 ⇒ 00:06:39.419 Brylle Girang: So for this first OKR, this connects directly with the revenue-driven learning. So, one of your OKR is going to be making sure that 100% of your service line, that means AI and data, will be certified on at least two
41 00:06:39.670 ⇒ 00:06:40.960 Brylle Girang: core tools.
42 00:06:41.530 ⇒ 00:06:45.210 Brylle Girang: Okay. So, two core tools by May 30, 2026.
43 00:06:45.590 ⇒ 00:06:46.660 Brylle Girang: So why…
44 00:06:47.860 ⇒ 00:06:54.490 Mustafa Raja: So, so this is me getting certified on at least two tools for each service line.
45 00:06:54.980 ⇒ 00:07:04.630 Brylle Girang: Not just you. A big part of this is that this needs to trickle down into your actual service line. So you…
46 00:07:04.730 ⇒ 00:07:05.910 Brylle Girang: a wish.
47 00:07:06.150 ⇒ 00:07:16.829 Brylle Girang: Sam, Pranav, everyone in your service line, AI data, should be certified. So, one main thing that we’re trying to push here is that
48 00:07:16.940 ⇒ 00:07:19.019 Brylle Girang: Special… specializations and this.
49 00:07:19.020 ⇒ 00:07:19.380 Mustafa Raja: certificate.
50 00:07:19.380 ⇒ 00:07:23.890 Brylle Girang: should not just be for one person, right? Brainforge.
51 00:07:24.090 ⇒ 00:07:32.890 Brylle Girang: Needs to be a team of highly trained, highly capable, and certified consultants all around… all across the board.
52 00:07:33.090 ⇒ 00:07:39.759 Mustafa Raja: Okay, so, do we know the core tools, for both AI and,
53 00:07:40.030 ⇒ 00:07:42.280 Mustafa Raja: data? Do we have a set of that? Yeah.
54 00:07:43.080 ⇒ 00:07:52.519 Brylle Girang: Yeah, for this quarter, for Data Service, we’re going to focus on Omni and Snowflake, and let me know if… is this, like, accurate?
55 00:07:52.700 ⇒ 00:07:56.300 Brylle Girang: We’re using Omni and Snowflake for data, is that right?
56 00:07:56.450 ⇒ 00:07:59.989 Mustafa Raja: Yes, that is correct. Yeah, these two should be good.
57 00:08:00.550 ⇒ 00:08:18.750 Brylle Girang: Okay, so that’s going to be for the data service line. Otam is emphasizing that Omni should be completed within April, by end of month, so that’s really important, because we have lots of clients looking for Omni right now, and we’re actually pushing Omni.
58 00:08:18.750 ⇒ 00:08:23.230 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I saw that in the sales channel also, that they have some leads, and…
59 00:08:23.450 ⇒ 00:08:27.000 Mustafa Raja: We need some certifications for them to be able to refer to us.
60 00:08:27.490 ⇒ 00:08:29.049 Brylle Girang: Exactly, exactly.
61 00:08:29.400 ⇒ 00:08:33.810 Brylle Girang: For AI service, I’m… I think Snowflake
62 00:08:34.280 ⇒ 00:08:38.580 Brylle Girang: Let me emphasize this to be… Vortex AI.
63 00:08:38.919 ⇒ 00:08:40.139 Mustafa Raja: Okay. But.
64 00:08:40.140 ⇒ 00:08:40.539 Brylle Girang: the tools.
65 00:08:40.549 ⇒ 00:08:49.209 Mustafa Raja: I’m wondering, I’m wondering, do they have, I mean, of course, I’m wondering, Snowflake has a program then, right, for certification?
66 00:08:49.210 ⇒ 00:08:49.700 Brylle Girang: Yes.
67 00:08:49.700 ⇒ 00:08:52.150 Mustafa Raja: For Cortex AI. Can we link that also? Yes.
68 00:08:52.910 ⇒ 00:08:56.859 Brylle Girang: Yeah, sure, sure. We have the partner network, and I’m also going to add it.
69 00:08:57.040 ⇒ 00:08:58.770 Brylle Girang: Here, actually, let me…
70 00:08:58.770 ⇒ 00:09:02.070 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, a column for that would be… nice.
71 00:09:02.070 ⇒ 00:09:02.840 Brylle Girang: sources.
72 00:09:04.890 ⇒ 00:09:05.900 Brylle Girang: Snowflake.
73 00:09:08.480 ⇒ 00:09:19.170 Brylle Girang: Yeah, but for AS Service, I think I’m really, really excited about this one, Antrophic. So, we are not yet a partner, but that’s something that I’m going to be working on this week.
74 00:09:19.850 ⇒ 00:09:23.399 Brylle Girang: If we manage to be their partner, then we…
75 00:09:23.570 ⇒ 00:09:27.120 Brylle Girang: Should have access to their Anthropic.
76 00:09:27.520 ⇒ 00:09:28.910 Brylle Girang: Certification.
77 00:09:29.100 ⇒ 00:09:30.950 Brylle Girang: So this is basically, like.
78 00:09:32.520 ⇒ 00:09:41.989 Brylle Girang: certification focusing on, like, cloud code, which should also trickle down to how we use cursor, since they work mainly the same.
79 00:09:42.390 ⇒ 00:09:43.150 Brylle Girang: And what’s that…
80 00:09:43.530 ⇒ 00:09:48.910 Brylle Girang: going to be exciting here is that Cloud Code is, you know, one of the largest…
81 00:09:49.450 ⇒ 00:09:54.060 Brylle Girang: Companies when it comes to When it comes to AI.
82 00:09:54.630 ⇒ 00:09:55.850 Brylle Girang: I think AI, right?
83 00:09:56.040 ⇒ 00:09:56.730 Mustafa Raja: No.
84 00:09:56.970 ⇒ 00:10:09.320 Brylle Girang: So that should be the main focus for April, and then for May, we’re going to focus on Snowflake Cortex. But let’s see, maybe we might need to push back on traffic if we don’t get their partnership
85 00:10:09.480 ⇒ 00:10:10.170 Brylle Girang: Within the block.
86 00:10:10.170 ⇒ 00:10:11.700 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah.
87 00:10:12.960 ⇒ 00:10:14.889 Mustafa Raja: And, for this…
88 00:10:15.070 ⇒ 00:10:20.720 Mustafa Raja: Sorry, sorry, I’m cutting you off. And do we know that Anthropic is handing out the certificates?
89 00:10:21.640 ⇒ 00:10:31.340 Brylle Girang: Yes, yes, as long as we are a partner of Anthropic, then yes, they have the certification course. It’s going to be free for the first 5,000.
90 00:10:31.340 ⇒ 00:10:41.069 Mustafa Raja: I just wanted to make sure that we have that. And I see Enit and Mashra, did we double-check with those? Do they have… Not yet, so…
91 00:10:41.340 ⇒ 00:10:47.460 Brylle Girang: These are in backlog, which means that this might be, you know, our focus for next quarter, but not really that
92 00:10:47.630 ⇒ 00:10:52.539 Brylle Girang: We’re not prioritizing it for now, and I’m not… I’m not looking into it yet.
93 00:10:52.540 ⇒ 00:10:53.889 Mustafa Raja: Okay, yeah, that makes sense.
94 00:10:54.690 ⇒ 00:11:07.919 Brylle Girang: Yeah, but yeah, so for data service and then AI service, this would be the core tools that I need your help when it comes to pushing them. And I think you mentioned that you want to get certifications, so this is, like, the best way for us to get this.
95 00:11:09.110 ⇒ 00:11:09.850 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.
96 00:11:10.720 ⇒ 00:11:13.770 Brylle Girang: So that… that’s the… that is the OKR.
97 00:11:13.940 ⇒ 00:11:17.610 Brylle Girang: For… for initiative number one. Are we clear there?
98 00:11:17.890 ⇒ 00:11:18.660 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.
99 00:11:18.950 ⇒ 00:11:20.160 Brylle Girang: Okay, perfect.
100 00:11:20.730 ⇒ 00:11:28.909 Brylle Girang: So for… For initiative number 2, so your OKR here will be to
101 00:11:29.740 ⇒ 00:11:34.200 Brylle Girang: Make sure that 100% of your service line completes the Foundation curriculum.
102 00:11:34.370 ⇒ 00:11:38.360 Brylle Girang: So the foundation curriculum is a curriculum that I’m currently building.
103 00:11:38.790 ⇒ 00:11:41.490 Brylle Girang: You should also say it here.
104 00:11:42.990 ⇒ 00:11:44.629 Brylle Girang: Let me share it with you.
105 00:11:45.590 ⇒ 00:11:48.500 Brylle Girang: a curriculum that I’m building that is…
106 00:11:49.070 ⇒ 00:11:54.229 Brylle Girang: Divided into modules that focuses on our standards.
107 00:11:54.370 ⇒ 00:12:02.160 Brylle Girang: As well as how we use AI within Brave Forge. So it includes AI training, healthiest cursor, etc.
108 00:12:02.540 ⇒ 00:12:15.600 Brylle Girang: What we’re making sure here is that this curriculum is not only presented to new hires, and existing people, existing Brainforge members, should also go through the same curriculum.
109 00:12:15.970 ⇒ 00:12:25.070 Brylle Girang: So, this curriculum basically is a learning material, making sure that we’re on the same path when it comes to AI adoption, and
110 00:12:25.330 ⇒ 00:12:27.160 Brylle Girang: Meeting our standards.
111 00:12:27.500 ⇒ 00:12:41.649 Brylle Girang: So my… the help that I need here is to make sure that I have co-champions making sure that they’re pushing their service lines to complete this curriculum. Because if they don’t, then we’re going to fail initiative number 4.
112 00:12:42.580 ⇒ 00:12:55.960 Brylle Girang: Before I proceed with number 4, is that clear? Like, the main ask here is to make sure that your service lines, 100% of them, everyone, have completed the foundation curriculum once we launch it.
113 00:12:56.880 ⇒ 00:12:58.060 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
114 00:12:58.660 ⇒ 00:12:59.610 Brylle Girang: Okay.
115 00:13:00.460 ⇒ 00:13:01.510 Brylle Girang: And then for…
116 00:13:01.510 ⇒ 00:13:17.879 Mustafa Raja: I’m wondering for, for pushing them, we’ll just be using, the data team or AI team channels, and engaging with the members over there, and pushing them to pursue, these certifications, right?
117 00:13:18.760 ⇒ 00:13:31.229 Brylle Girang: Yes, yes, that’s a good way to approach it. And, you know, you have all the power, I think we’re bestowing the power for you to push them, really, because this is going to be part of your OKRs, right?
118 00:13:32.490 ⇒ 00:13:36.370 Brylle Girang: Yeah, so for the last initiative,
119 00:13:38.030 ⇒ 00:13:47.990 Brylle Girang: First roll track session, so what we mean here is that, we’re trying to build, like, the AI workflows for each service line, right? Because we can build
120 00:13:48.420 ⇒ 00:13:58.939 Brylle Girang: everything for everyone. It will not fit their needs, it will not fit their workflows, so we need service line leaders to actually build workflows for them.
121 00:13:59.220 ⇒ 00:14:07.740 Brylle Girang: So maybe for AI or for data, you’ll be creating workflows for dbt, for Omni, for Snowflake, etc.
122 00:14:07.990 ⇒ 00:14:20.030 Brylle Girang: This OKR means that you should have delivered at least one session dedicated to training your service lines on how to use the workflows that we have created.
123 00:14:20.290 ⇒ 00:14:24.919 Brylle Girang: So this is going to be more interactive in a way that you will be training them.
124 00:14:25.370 ⇒ 00:14:29.759 Brylle Girang: In the hopes that it will multiply within your service line.
125 00:14:29.980 ⇒ 00:14:31.310 Brylle Girang: Does that make sense?
126 00:14:32.020 ⇒ 00:14:33.759 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, that does make sense.
127 00:14:34.350 ⇒ 00:14:43.079 Brylle Girang: Okay, and then this one, so I’m… I colored this in red, because I’m not sure yet if it’s going to be the co-champion or me.
128 00:14:43.780 ⇒ 00:14:56.759 Brylle Girang: But I mentioned that we will be having… we will be having build-a-thons, which are basically hackathons, where we build something that’s going to be useful for your service lines or Brainforge in general.
129 00:14:57.260 ⇒ 00:15:03.559 Brylle Girang: The OKR here is to make sure that the artifact created from that build-a-thon is still in use.
130 00:15:03.710 ⇒ 00:15:09.750 Brylle Girang: So that means that we don’t create something that’s, you know, that’s just exciting, and then we’re not going to
131 00:15:10.500 ⇒ 00:15:11.420 Brylle Girang: Use it.
132 00:15:11.670 ⇒ 00:15:15.390 Brylle Girang: In the next months, in the next quarters.
133 00:15:15.660 ⇒ 00:15:17.449 Brylle Girang: Yeah. But this is still, you know…
134 00:15:24.080 ⇒ 00:15:26.990 Brylle Girang: Yeah, so these are the OKRs,
135 00:15:27.480 ⇒ 00:15:31.859 Brylle Girang: The first curriculum, or the curriculum will launch by next week.
136 00:15:31.970 ⇒ 00:15:37.369 Brylle Girang: But this week, I will be sending over my ask from you and Amber.
137 00:15:37.580 ⇒ 00:15:47.900 Brylle Girang: I’m just going to be sending it via chat, because I’m trying to, like, compile all the ads that I need within this week. That will not take up too much of your time.
138 00:15:48.030 ⇒ 00:15:57.719 Brylle Girang: But just to set expectations, it might revolve around figuring out the proper paths for these certifications, because most.
139 00:15:57.720 ⇒ 00:16:04.819 Mustafa Raja: Okay, okay, so the curriculum is going to have context on how to navigate through these certifications, right?
140 00:16:05.000 ⇒ 00:16:17.970 Brylle Girang: Yes, yes, definitely, because we… we can… we can’t ask everyone to take up all the courses, and then, you know, it will not work. Especially Snowflake, there are lots of course, certifications, there are lots of courses there.
141 00:16:18.110 ⇒ 00:16:25.930 Brylle Girang: The main thing that I need help with from you is figuring out which course would actually fit your service lines.
142 00:16:26.310 ⇒ 00:16:29.249 Brylle Girang: But I’m also going to send you a message about that.
143 00:16:29.790 ⇒ 00:16:35.019 Mustafa Raja: Okay. Yeah, just for context, I will be out of office from tomorrow till April 11th.
144 00:16:35.500 ⇒ 00:16:36.480 Brylle Girang: Yeah, yeah, no worries.
145 00:16:36.480 ⇒ 00:16:42.620 Mustafa Raja: I may be, I may still be reachable, but I may not reply as quickly as I would.
146 00:16:42.620 ⇒ 00:16:43.960 Brylle Girang: Okay, yeah.
147 00:16:44.590 ⇒ 00:16:46.090 Brylle Girang: Thank you for letting me know.
148 00:16:46.300 ⇒ 00:16:46.970 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.
149 00:16:47.220 ⇒ 00:16:55.560 Brylle Girang: Yeah, is everything clear? So, this is your OKR, so this is really important. I want to make sure that we’re crystal clear here.
