Podcasts about digital leaders

Today I am talking to Professor Alan Brown, Professor of Digital Economy at the University of Exeter and Director of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Digital Leaders. We talk about how small and medium sized companies can get the best from AI. We cover how AI can help in education. We also talk about the Feasibility, viability and desirability of new solutions. We will look at relationships with technology, how AI can improve education and how adoption of new technology can be affected by people's perceived vulnerability – ultimately the question is how can people learn to trust technology?

Flexible working is a hot topic. Amazon is the latest company to stir up debate around the virtues of giving employees the best possible work/life balance. A CBI Employment Trends survey found that 99% of all businesses surveyed believe that a flexible workforce is vital or important to competitiveness. BUT... Flexibility means different things to different people e.g. working around school runs, being able to work from home, starting later and finishing later, not having to take annual leave for appointments etc. And you need to consider diversity and inclusivity.... it's not as easy as it looks! We borrowed a quote from Sara Russell, Marketing Director at 5874 Commerce to kick start our debate: “So does the eCommerce industry need flexible working? If we want to attract and retain top talent, keep our teams engaged and provide top-level customer satisfaction then yes we do.” Tune in to listen to different approaches from three highly respected digital leaders: Ross Allsop, Director of Growth at PANGAIA, Dan Partridge, CEO at leading Shopify partner Swanky (Shopify Plus Agency) and Paul Rogers, MD at award winning digital agency Vervaunt.

In your experience, what are some essential skills and qualities that every successful marketer should possess, regardless of the industry or company they're in?
