10:15 am - 10:45 am Transformation With Purpose: Making Digitization Meaningful To People

Etienne Grisvard - Head of TBS Experience, Takeda Business Solutions

It is incredibly easy to get bogged down in the details of any digital transformation. Factors like deadlines, legacy systems and IT alignment can quickly confuse a project team and drain any excitement you had previously generated for the digitization. A confused workforce can’t see how they align with strategic objectives, or each other and determination gives way to frustration. That’s why communicating and re-asserting the purpose of your transformation is vital to its success. In this session we talk through how to go about that and make digitization meaningful to your people.

12:45 pm - 1:30 pm Intelligent Automation Trends, Benchmarks & Insights from Tom Bangemann, SSON Research & Analytics

Tom Bangemann - Head of Data Development & Research, SSON Research & Analytics

Over the past half a dozen years, SSOs have come to – initially, cautiously – experiment with and then enthusiastically embrace process automation technology. In the early days this took the form of robotic process automation (RPA), which served to knit together disparate tasks, acting as a band-aid to connect different systems or applications. Today, this trend has morphed into a sophisticated movement, embracing the concept of the “digital enterprise” as it drives smart automated solutions through “platform” thinking. Humans are taken out of workflows, and newly digital data is leveraged for both intelligence and machine learning. 

During this session, attendees will: 

  • Receive the latest data and insights from SSON Research & Analytics' Intelligent Automation Global Survey & Report
  • See how the World's Best GBS Organizations Perform in Adoption & Impact of Automation
  • Explore current IA metrics and benchmark results
