By now, we’re all tired of hearing about how Covid-19 has shaken up the economy and workforce, sending many traditional nine-to-fivers to work remotely from home. Now, though, it’s time to start looking at how the work environment will function as the pandemic fades (fingers crossed). Remember the office building? Conversations around the water cooler? In-person meetings in conference rooms? While it is unlikely things will ever return to exactly how they were before, there will be rafts of workers returning to those buildings that have sat empty for the past 12 months. Though many never think about all the behind-the-scenes work that goes into keeping buildings functioning and safe, the return to the workplace puts one particular role in the hot seat—the facility manager. While before the pandemic, many buildings were dipping their toes into a more connected building model—wherein the tasks required for building upkeep and maintenance are automated for efficiency and savings—this digital transformation is more crucial now than ever. One of the connected building space leaders is Honeywell, whose name you may recognize for its controls and hardware expertise. However, that barely scratches the surface of Honeywell’s purview today. Not too long ago, I interviewed David Trice, Honeywell’s Chief Product Officer, who previously led Honeywell’s Connected Building business, on Honeywell’s strategy and outlook in the connected building space. This week, I had the opportunity to interview Honeywell’s new GM of Connected Buildings, Usman K. Shuja, who is in the process of taking over for David Trice. Today, I’d like to profile Shuja and share some of my gatherings from our conversation. Shuja is not new to Honeywell—he’s currently transitioning from his role as Chief Commercial Officer for Honeywell’s Connected Enterprise (the company’s software business) into Connected Buildings’ GM role. Shuja brings valuable experience as the GM of an AI startup he helped launch in 2013, called SparkCognition, based out of Austin, TX. While Honeywell presents a more extensive charge than SparkCognition’s 300 employees, Shuja says he is looking forward to the challenge. I will say that Shuja’s entrepreneurial experience automatically gains my respect. I was employee number 154 at Alta Vista in the late nineties, which lost out to Google after burning through M in cash. It was a disheartening, albeit highly educational, experience, and I admire any entrepreneur who could weather the storm. One of Shuja’s first investors at SparkCognition was none other than Michael Dell of Dell Technologies, where Shuja also spent time before coming to Honeywell. Between attending the University of Texas, founding SparkCognition and working for Dell, Shuja spent about 20 years in the tech hub of Austin, TX, only recently relocating.

https://people.com/human-interest/homeless-man-job-offers-resumes-highway/  A homeless man in Mountain View, California, is reportedly sifting through hundreds of job offers mere days after passing out his resume alongside a highway.  Wearing a suit and tie on Friday, 26-year-old David Casarez held up a sign at a median that read: “HOMELESS. HUNGRY 4 SUCCESS. TAKE A RESUME.”  “This is my make it or break it moment,” Casarez told KNTV of what inspired his bold move. “I have to do something crazy.”  Casarez graduated with a degree in management information systems from Texas A&M University and worked as a General Motors web developer in Austin, Texas, the New York Post reports. But when he moved to California in hopes of creating a startup, he lost all of his money and the vehicle that he had been living in. He has been sleeping in a park ever since, he told the outlet.  His luck changed on Friday when a driver Jasmine Scofield passed by and asked if she could put his picture online.  “Today I saw this young homeless man asking for people to take a resume rather than asking for money,” Scofield wrote on Twitter. “If anyone in the Silicon Valley could help him out, that would be amazing. Please RT so we can help David out!”  The tweet has more than 118,000 retweets and 186,000 likes. Casarez has received about 200 job offers, including from Google, Neflix and LinkedIn, according to a tweet by Scofield.  “I knew it would be posted on social media, I didn’t know it would blow up like this,” he told KNTV. “I’m trying not to take any money. I really do just want a job opportunity — that’s all I’m asking.”  The timing could not have been more fortuitous for Casarez. “I wanted to keep my head up high, keep looking forward and see what opportunity would come next,” he told the Post. “I was thinking, you know, like this was like my last stop. If this didn’t work, I’d go back home and give up on my dream.”  Scofield praised the man’s efforts even more on Twitter, writing, “He came to the Silicon Valley with a dream to be successful in tech and has a lot to offer the community.”
