Small Fish Farmer Shows Big Corporates How to Be More Efficient

Red Deer, Canada is known for a lot of things. It’s the first city in Canada, for example, to have had a court case to include female jurors.

But, more recently, it’s made headlines for something on the outskirts of the city.

Just 22 minutes out of Red Deer is the Smoky Trout Farm, a family-run fish farm business that also specializes in lake and pond water management.

What’s amazing is how this tiny operation is taking a leaf out of the IT strategy followed by large corporations, including the likes of Whirlpool, Usha Martin, and Salesforce.

Smoky Trout Farm, started out by supplying rainbow trout to owners of private ponds and lakes in 1998. The nature of the business, however, made time a precious commodity. By 2016, the father and son duo, Dan and Max Menard, who started the business, found themselves unable to do more because they didn’t have the time.

“It’s 24×7. If we have something happen, then you can start to lose your crop (of fish) in 15 minutes. Consequently, someone is always here (the Smoky Trout Farm HQ). It has its days,” says Dan.

That’s when Dan’s other son Ray Menard decided to pitch in. He introduced the business to G-Suite, ensuring they could collaborate better and be more efficient.

“I was trying to make it more efficient so that they’d have more time to do what they do best. Google was basically an instant solution,” says Ray.

Find out how Smoky Trout Farm bucked the trend and the benefits it achieved. Watch this two-minute video.

Dr. Alan Hippe, CFO & CIO, Roche Group, shares how collaboration tools help healthcare firms like the Roche Group take timely decisions that help them focus on saving patients’ lives.

For over 110 years, Roche has been pioneering the discovery, development, production and marketing of novel healthcare solutions. Our focus has always been on innovation.

The way our employees communicate and collaborate is diverse, and our employees are spread globally.

Our two different email and calendaring platforms have often been an obstacle for effective collaboration. To end these platform interoperability issues, the Roche Corporate Executive Committee made the decision that all employees will move to G Suite as the single common platform for the Roche Group.

The integrated and socially-focused way that G Suite enables collaboration is very compelling, and we expect this to not only bring our company closer together but give us a strategic advantage. Additionally, being able to deploy G Suite features by simply enabling them via a control panel versus planning for and deploying complex infrastructure in our data-centers will help us focus on our core business–helping save patients’ lives.

An Expert’s Guide to Productivity and Well-being while Embracing WFH and Hybrid Style

Hybrid work model is underway in many organizations. Staying productive and efficient, daily in a conventional way can be difficult. Read the blog to download Google's Workplace Guide to Productivity and Wellbeing.

Driving impact over output in a new era of work

As Google’s productivity advisor, I spend a lot of time coaching executives on ways they can make the most of their work day. Over the years, people have come to me with very different ideas about what productivity is, why it matters, and how to achieve it. Often, they think it’s about extracting every last ounce of output from a day—likely because the idea of productivity comes from economics and is most closely associated with factory conveyor belts and efficiency. 

My definition of personal productivity is different. It’s less about getting as much as you can out of each day and more about achieving the things you set out to accomplish and making an impact. 

Productivity is grounded in understanding yourself as a whole person. What makes you happy at work and outside of work? What are your natural rhythms and peak times for creativity, focus, or efficiency? When are you most engaged in meetings? What makes you feel unstoppable when responding to emails? And when do you need to take a break, do some uninterrupted thinking, or deepen social connections with your colleagues? 

When people don’t understand these aspects of productivity, they struggle to make an impact—no matter how well they manage their calendars and inboxes. 

During the global pandemic, we’ve realized the importance of sustaining the wellbeing of ourselves and our families, setting healthy boundaries, and bringing intention to the work day. Among those lucky enough to have the flexibility to work from home, many had to juggle new obligations, from homeschooling to caregiving. And without a solid plan in place, people often found themselves working longer hours and facing burnout.

Now, even as the pandemic enters new and unforeseen phases, many organizations are gearing up for a hybrid work model, Google included. As we make those plans, it’s important that people take a fresh look at personal productivity and plan to maximize wellbeing and impact across all the places they work. 

I developed this new guide with these challenges in mind. It gathers up all my best productivity and wellbeing tips from over the years, including how to:

  • Rethink your time and your calendar
  • Transform your inbox
  • Make meetings more meaningful
  • Bring productivity and wellbeing together

As we embrace new ways—and places—of working, all these areas feel more important than ever.
