We are in the midst of a digital evolution that has happened almost overnight, and its impact on how and where we work will have huge consequences for the future of almost every company on the planet. A more distributed and potentially more diverse workforce can challenge even the most resilient of cultures, but the pros do seem to far outweigh the cons. So how can organizations embrace this digital evolution, and specifically what is the role of the CIO in this respect?
In this informal fireside chat, Suhit and Joe will discuss the importance of culture and connection in the new digital era from the perspective of the IT function.
