Digital transformations and the fourth industrial revolution are fundamentally changing the way organisations operate.

Whether it is Cloud, Agile, Data, AI, Automation, Robotics or any other technology, how well are you identifying, defining, and realising the benefits from these projects?

Ask yourself the following questions:

• Why are you wanting to move to Cloud, Agile, Data, AI, Automation, Robotics etc?
• Are you still focussing on the projects to introduce technology at the expense of why you are doing so?
• Have you quantified the benefits of digital transformation?
• How will you measure the benefit of all this technology implementation?
• What is your return in investment from digital transformation?
• Are you using terms like “better productivity”, “reduced costs”, “more agile”, “better data driven decisions”, “better customer experience”, “faster time to market”, etc. to describe your benefits?

Without benefits management, digital transformation is meaningless…and all these terms to describe the benefits are being used to justify a decision that has already been made!

In this session Ian will talk about how to undertake effective benefits management in order to maximise return on your digital transformation (or indeed any other) investment.

Presenter Dr. Ian Clarkson (LinkedIn profile) Head of Organisational Consultancy; is an experienced consultant, columnist, trainer and speaker, making him highly respected in his field.

Who are the top performers in your organization, and which of your colleagues has the potential to become CHRO?

Will the next graduate you hire or the next manager you promote have what it takes to lead a team, a department, or even the entire organization in a few years?

The evaluation of people’s future potential is at the heart of talent management.

Leaders must decide who has what it takes to step up and perform at the next level. In doing so, they must know how to measure potential so they don’t make the mistake of substituting potential with experience.

The SEC warns investors that “past performance is no guarantee of future performance.” This adage applies as much to people as it does to stocks.

So how do we measure potential?

In this webcast, assessment specialist Charlie Atkinson (LinkedIn profile) will walk you through the ins and outs of measuring potential.

This is essential learning for anyone involved in hiring or promotion decisions, whether you work for a global multinational or a new startup.

Learn:

• The difference between performance and potential
• The science behind measuring potential
• How different measurement methods compare
• The characteristics of potential and how to use them
