Leading your industry in the current economy: Future-fit digital transformation

DIGITAL - SHOWCASE

13 December 2022, America 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm EDT | 9:00 am - 10:30 am PDT

IN PARTNERSHIP

The current moment in the global economy asks for businesses to do fewer things better and adjust faster to shifting customer needs.

We’ve all heard the term “digital transformation” and how the macrotrend redefined how many companies ran their businesses the last few years. What impact does your digital transformation strategy have on employee productivity, business performance and customer experience expectations over the next 18 months?

Digital transformation is not an isolated decision–it requires leaders across multiple functions to be deeply cognizant of business metrics, be proactive about change management, and be critical of the selection and adoption of new technologies supporting their employees.

Join Asana and two leaders that drive digital transformation initiatives at loanDepot and RICOH to learn how they created the right balance of processes, technology, and people to realign and future-proof their business.
