There’s a paradox in the cloud. Public cloud infrastructure has set the standard for increased agility and flexibility — but the cost and refactoring effort is under scrutiny and challenging business’ ability to take advantage of it.

In fact, managing cloud spend is the number-one challenge cited by business leaders in the 2023 Flexera State of the Cloud Report, with 82% of all organizations putting it at the top of the list, even surpassing security concerns (79%).

On top of that, cost management initiatives result in businesses leveraging multiple clouds driving increased complexity. As a result, leaders are taking a second look at their cloud strategies to ensure they can drive the best outcomes.

Join thought leaders from Nutanix as they discuss best practices to continue to innovate in a digital world, while making the most of your on-prem, managed and public cloud investments.

In this webinar, they will discuss how to:

  • Define the value and business outcomes driven by your cloud strategy
  • Optimize spend and resources in a multicloud environment
    • Refine overall cloud strategy (e.g., public vs private vs hybrid)
  • Increase value realization from cloud investments
  • Overcome cloud migration challenges

Participants will discover:

  • A comprehensive understanding of the rapidly evolving skills landscape and its implications for work design
  • A step-by-step approach to modern work design

Surveys are important tools for gathering the data we use for training evaluation, and they’re easy to compose, right? Wrong!

Survey respondents get frustrated with questions that don’t have response options that match their experiences, or confused by response options that are misaligned with question stems.

Poorly constructed rating scale questions are a particularly common phenomenon, even for experienced evaluators and survey designers!

Did you know that the rating scales we use with survey questions actually influence response?

This makes our decisions about which scales or which intervals to offer even more impactful. We also hold onto myths about how many scale points are best, how to label them, or whether to use an odd or even number of response options.

These beliefs prevent us from asking clear, easy-to-answer questions that yield meaningful, actionable data.

Join Sheila for real-world examples of survey questions, practice in identifying common rating scale problems, and some mythbusting, along with research-based strategies for designing high-quality rating scale questions.

Participants will be able to:

  • identify common problems with survey rating scales
  • identify common myths in rating scale design
  • determine when to use an odd or even number of scale points in a given survey item
  • determine when to use midpoints and non-substantive response options in rating scale items
  • apply best practices for labeling rating scales

While diversity, equity, and inclusion have been a focal point of some organizations for many years, others have only recently begun to dedicate time and resources to such initiatives.

DE&I strategies have historically focused only on full-time hires. Now, all trends point towards organizations needing to expand the scope of DE&I to additionally consider their contingent workers.

In this webcast, Irene Koulianos (LinkedIn profile) will explore three ways total workforce management can help improve the effectiveness of your DE&I strategy by supporting:

  • Better decision making
  • Higher profitability
  •  Recession resilience

Join us to learn how building an efficient DE&I strategy can make for a fiscally sustainable organization that’s attractive to senior leadership and prospective talent.
