The Buzz: “Adaptability may be your most essential skill in the Covid-19 world.” [WaPo] When a global health pandemic is added to volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity, does previous knowledge count more than the ability to navigate the unknown? When health concerns require millions to work remotely in a two-dimensional online experience, how do they learn and create meaning for themselves? Deluged by a flood of information and answers within instant reach, how do we focus on what matters to us, our families, communities, companies, the world? The many facets of these pressing issues include the paradigms of knowledge, competence and behavioral change; what it means to be a conscious and social learner and active agent in the world; and what neuroscience tells us about the capabilities of humans vs machines to innovate with purpose and meaning. We’ll ask SAP’s Darragh Power and Axel Ferreyroles for their insights on The Wisdom of Learning: Facing an Unknown Future.

The Silver Bullet for Cloud Economics: Customer Success

The Buzz: A silver bullet can be defined as an infallible means of attack or defense; a simple remedy for a difficult or intractable problem; any simple but sweeping solution to a complex or virtually insurmountable problem; a bullet made of silver, usually in the folkloric belief that such bullets are the only weapons that can kill a werewolf; or any straightforward solution perceived to have great effectiveness or bring miraculous results. Besides the one in folklore, is there ever an effective silver bullet? Many solution provider organizations are shifting the fundamentals of their business from project-based to recurring revenue-based – a massive transformational challenge with many levers to pull, push and turn on the journey. We’ll ask SAP's Charles Bennett, Dave Hartley and John Scola about those levers and the silver bullet that may be a core foundational principle for every successful recurring revenue business on The Silver Bullet for Cloud Economics: Customer Success.

Driving Technological Change: Cornerstone of Successful Business

The Buzz: “When digital transformation is done right, it’s like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, but when done wrong, all you have is a really fast caterpillar.” (George Westerman, MIT Sloan) Digital Transformation in business has become a fundamental cornerstone to help satisfy customers’ escalating expectations, adapt to Covid-19 pandemic-driven workforce and workplace changes, and provide competitive differentiation.

When should you embark on transformation projects? How can you ensure your change management projects succeed? How can you seize the opportunity to also drive the ‘’greater good’’? We’ll ask SAP’s Cathy Daum, AGILITA’s Sandra Voeller and Islet’s Janina Luoto for their take on Driving Technological Change: Cornerstone of Successful Business.
