Even before the COVID-19 pandemic or the economic disruptions dramatically affecting our businesses and our personal lives, the Fourth Industrial Revolution was pushing us in new directions. Some of us were embracing the changes coming—from AI and Machine Learning, to Blockchain and Internet of Things, to Robotics and Virtual Reality. Others were resisting the new and protecting their current way of doing things.

 

The times were, indeed, a’ changing.

 

Now we are faced with an unexpected and very dramatic crisis. In this talk Andi will help you dig into the important questions:
 

• How can you use this opportunity to rethink how you do things?
• Who will be your customer tomorrow?
• What are their challenges and how will you find new ways to solve them?
• What opportunities are coming that you should capitalize upon?
• How do you lead your organizations forward with new technologies, a new way to work, and new cultural values and beliefs about what is right about what you do?
   

Join us for an engaging 45 minutes talk with 15 minutes to dig into your questions and share your insights to help you plan for tomorrow, today!
