Change capable organizations have gone beyond a core group of SME practitioners and extended change management competencies throughout the organization.

Research shows that it takes an activated system that includes senior leaders, people managers, project teams and the front-line employees to successfully navigate an organization through times of change.

In this session, learn why each role is crucial during change and how to develop role-based change competencies within an Enterprise Change Management (ECM) Framework.

PROSCI literally “wrote the books” on Change Management:

• ADKAR®: A Model for Change in Business, Government and our Communityby Jeffrey M. Hiatt
  • ADKAR®—awareness, desire, knowledge, ability and reinforcement
• Change Management: The People Side of Change by Jeffrey M. Hiatt

These texts are a MUST READ for anyone performing Change management as a part of their role!

Inclusive Diversity

Though frequently used together, the terms diversity and inclusion have different meanings.

You can have a diverse workforce but not necessarily an inclusive one.

Diversity is the mixture of demographics, psychographics, and experiences reflected in the workforce.

By contrast, inclusion is the practice of recognizing and valuing all employee perspectives and contributions, and creating opportunities for all voices to be equally heard and inform organizational processes.

In a culture of inclusive diversity the full potential of all employees is realized.

In our  HCI’s Talent Pulse research, they:

• Examined the antecedents and conditions of inclusive diversity.
• Asked HR practitioners and leaders involved with diversity and inclusion efforts about their current programs
  • to shed more light on what is working and what is not.

In fact, researchers recently found that mandatory diversity training that tries to police thoughts and behaviors does more harm than good.

They often result in backlash and can make an organization less diverse in the long-run.

In HCI’s survey, they asked about the D&I training offered but also explored the outcomes of those engagements to better understand the most effective ways to build inclusive diversity.

In this research webcast they will:

• Report on the prevalence of different types of D&I programs and who is responsible for design and implementation of them.
• Explore the motivations of organizations focused on D&I as a means of compliance versus those organizations that invest in D&I to drive learning and leverage of diverse perspectives.
• Learn the personal characteristics and abilities needed to foster a culture of inclusion.
• Address the most notable challenges facing effective implementation of D&I efforts.

Enterprises are leveraging Internet of things (IoT) technologies for their digital business journey.

The building block for IoT is the instrumented thing.

In a significant number of IoT use cases, what is emerging as the most new and important related IT innovation is the digital twin representation that enables stakeholders the ability to monitor and make decisions about the actual thing, its context, and its current and future state.

Discussion Topics:

• Why digital twins are important
• What the elements are of a digital twin
• Implications of digital twins to digital business
