How organisations are responding to technology disruption
CCMA Open Forum - In this month's breakfast briefing, Derek Lande from Accenture tackles the issue of competitive agility and how organisations are responding to technology disruption.
In an environment where the pace and disruptive impact of new technologies is increasing, organisations are increasingly trying to predict what will impact their business and plan how to respond. This event will explore some of the long term technology trends and examine why the pace of disruption is accelerating.
In the face of accelerating and increasingly harder to predict disruption, many organisations are focusing on enhancing their competitive agility as the one certain requirement for future success. We'll discuss how achieving agility touches on everything from culture to organisation to process and technology.
This informative breakfast briefing, held at Accenture's offices in Dublin will begin at 08:00 and finish at 09:30
Date: 25/09/2019

A technology and politics nut, Derek’s work and personal interests collide around how emerging technology will impact not just business, but society as a whole.
