Digital technologies are disrupting organizations of every size and shape, leaving managers scrambling to find a technology fix that will help their organizations compete.

This presentation offers managers and business leaders a guide for navigating digital disruptions—but it is not a presentation about technology. It is about the organizational changes required to harness the power of technology, many of which have become essential as companies seek to adapt to the global disruption caused by COVID-19.

Prof. Gerald Kane (LinkedIn profile) argues that digital disruption is primarily about people and that effective digital transformation involves changes to organizational dynamics and how work gets done.

A focus only on selecting and implementing the right digital technologies is not likely to lead to success. The best way to respond to digital disruption is by changing the company culture to be more agile, risk tolerant, and experimental.

Gerald draws on five years of research, surveying more than 20,000 people and conducting interviews with over 100 leaders at such companies as Walmart, Google, MetLife, John Hancock, and Salesforce. He introduces the concept of digital maturity—the ability to take advantage of opportunities offered by the new technology—and address the specifics of digital transformation, including cultivating a digital environment, enabling intentional collaboration, and fostering an experimental mindset.

Every organization needs to understand its “digital DNA” in order to stop “doing digital” and start “being digital.” Digital disruption won’t end anytime soon; the average worker will probably experience numerous waves of disruption during the course of a career.

The insights offered by this presentation will hold true through them all.

The year 2020 has been one that most of us are undoubtedly looking forward to seeing in the rearview mirror. Yet, as HR practitioners, there are important lessons we can draw upon as we look ahead to 2021.

As we close out a year that has given new meaning to the term ‘disruption,’ we can and should consider the old ways of working that will no longer suit us and adopt new approaches that will yield far better outcomes for our employees and organizations alike.

While we can’t control or necessarily anticipate the external events happening in the world around us, we can prepare our workforces to be agile and ready to grow and flex.

Now is the time to lean in. For employees to prosper in the new world of work, we have to actively foster continuous internal talent mobility.

This requires rethinking everything – from career development, learning and skill-building to the very concept of job descriptions and why sharing talent freely is in everyone’s interest – as well as taking a new view of the employee journey.

In this session Jeanne Schad  (LinkedIn profile) Talent Solutions & Strategy Practice Lead RiseSmart explores six ways of working better left behind and their future-focused replacements that you can put into play the next year.

These 6 Strategies Are:

• Pursuing creative alternatives to layoffs to retain employees
• Helping managers freely share their talented direct reports and why it can help your organization flourish
•  Tossing out rigid job descriptions to help you uncover workforce capabilities you didn’t know you had
• Taking a flexible approach to how, when and where learning occurs to untether career development and internal mobility
• Trading tech-only skilling solutions with a guided approach to close the skills gap
•  Simplifying your life by replacing multiple tech platforms with integrated technology

The battle for future supply chain leadership and competitive advantage will be won by those supply chains that can best adapt their operating models in response to fluid business and customer requirements and an uncertain, volatile business context.

This requires an “insight-design-advantage” supply chain design factory that does not manufacture new products, but instead manufactures competitive advantage.

This factory transforms insights into new supply chain capabilities.

Those leaders who handle structural disruptions that require new supply chain designs — new technologies, business models, geopolitical and social shifts — best improve performance and competitive position.

In this webinar Jennifer Loveland (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director Analyst highlights best practices that will help your supply chain sense critical shifts first and prepare now to change faster than competitors.

Discussion Topics:

• Sense critical structural shifts first through more continual strategic planning and actionable jobs-to-be-done based customer insights
• How to build operating model modularity, a responsive culture, and flexible funding for investments
• How Schneider Electric, Samsung and Haier use their supply chains for competitive advantage
