As we move from an analog to digital world it's imperative that organizations and individuals adapt new behaviors. Instead of the tyranny of the past, organizations must rapidly innovate in all dimensions, especially around getting better at change.

But when employees are too busy to think, productivity suffers. When the urgent drives out the important, the superficial drives out the strategic. Today too many employees are stuck in the Busyness Trap; wasting hours every day slogging through email and spending far too much time in unproductive meetings. As a result, there's less time for creativity and innovation.

The digital era requires aligning amazing new technologies such as AI with a smarter workforce. This session will focus on the behavioral keys to organizational survival and success. Paradoxically, this means attempting less but winning more. It means operating as an integrated organization, not as a collection of fragmented silos. Winning means turning the entire organization Inside out to better sense the needs of customers and other key stakeholders. 

It's not enough to adopt new technologies and digitize core processes. Success requires harnessing the capabilities of both humans and machines. Without both smart tech and smart work, failure is inevitable.
