Episode Description
The buzz: “New research provides compelling evidence that diversity unlocks innovation and drives market growth” (hbr.org). With the commoditization of technology, your company may have focused on improving efficiencies. But if you used a cookie-cutter approach to reshape business processes, organizational models, data and architecture, you may have an unwelcome by-product: the inability to innovate. How to fix? Build-in diversity at every level–systems, data, processes, ecosystems, people and skills across your entire organization. The experts speak. Bronwyn Hastings, SAP: “Dreams and dedication are a powerful combination” (William Longgood). Darwin Deano, Deloitte: “Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future” (Deepak Chopra). Jodie Stahly, Deloitte: “The real secret of success is enthusiasm” (Walter Chrysler). Join us for Redefining Innovation to the Power of D: Multiple Layers of Diversity.
