It was an honor for me to step in and join Gérard Richter today at the Gartner IT Symposium for McKinsey's keynote on Rewiring for Productivity. Thunderstorms notwithstanding we were delighted to speak to a group of > 450 CIOs and CTOs about the opportunity to close the productivity gap through tech-enabled transformations. Technology can help increase productivity and that will be key to laying the foundation for a sustainable, inclusive, and growing future. 💲--> It lays the foundation for affordability 🍃 --> Helps accelerate the carbon transition 👷♀️ --> Mitigates demographic workforce challenges We also talked about the importance for the CIO/CTO and the COO to join forces. In our latest study, 60% of respondents confirmed that their digital transformations were held back due to not having the right talent and skills and 70% said there was resistant to change. 🤝 --> A holistic partnership can be the first step to addressing these enterprise-wide challenges! Do join tomorrow for my next talk if you are around or find me at the McKinsey & Company booth! 📣 Setting a Vision for Impact in Your AI and Tech Transformation 🕠 Nov 5 (Tue) 5:35 PM 📍IT Xpo Stage 3
