The “right” technology can be vastly different for different companies, but the results are the same. Having the right technology increases productivity, efficiency, collaboration, employee retention, company growth, and ultimately the bottom line.   

Every workplace has its own “personality” when it comes to creating an effective technology plan. But often the most critical step is missing: aligning the employees' (users') perspective, needs, and wants with the leader’s vision for the company. On this panel, we will be joined by leading experts in the field: Adam Bunk, Senior Consultant with Deloitte Consulting's Strategy and Operations practice; Tom Bradbury, CEO of Labrador Technology; Stefan Dietrich, Workplace Strategist; and Risa Goldberg, Social Enterprise Change Lead at Accenture. Learn about WorkplaceUX, an innovative approach to help CEO’s to find true alignment with their unique business needs and technology, matching user wants and needs. Panel members will discuss the significance and benefits of making technology a positive attribute in your company.

Come join this lively discussion essential for all company leaders.

If you are a CEO or C-level executive and would like to see if you qualify to attend this event, register online here or contact Cathy Curley with your interest.
