Podcasts about Digital transformation

Most consultants unknowingly undermine their authority by adapting too much, quoting day rates, or submitting CVs. In this episode, we unpack how these well-meaning habits position you as a functional temp — not a strategic advisor. Discover how to shift from time-based pricing to outcome-based value, lead with a proven system, and become the only option — not one of many. If you're serious about leading transformative engagements and commanding respect in your field, this episode is essential listening. 

In this must-listen episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc is joined by seasoned retail strategist Jim Okamura, Partner at McMillan Doolittle and Co-Founder of the Global E-commerce Leaders Forum (GELF). Recorded live at the CommerceNext show in New York City, the two Canadians delve deeply into the current and future state of retail, blending global expertise with practical insights from the ground up.The conversation begins with Jim's background and a look at McMillan Doolittle's role in driving innovation across various retail formats. Known for their globally respected annual Retail Innovations report, Jim explains how international partners nominate the most forward-thinking concepts, regardless of whether they achieve commercial success. From trailblazing store formats, such as Printemps' architectural marvel in Manhattan, to localization strategies that shape international brand launches, Jim shares examples that reflect where retail is headed next.The duo then shifts to a frank discussion about the collapse of Hudson's Bay and what it signals for the broader department store format. Comparing North American challenges with the success of Japanese models that utilize a leased brand approach, Jim highlights how changing consumer behaviour—especially in beauty and apparel—has fragmented traditional retail categories. He argues that the decline of department stores is less a retail apocalypse and more a natural part of the lifecycle of formats.As the conversation moves to unified commerce and digital transformation, Jim emphasizes that success isn't just about tech—it's about culture. Companies that embrace a testing and analytics-driven mindset have a competitive edge. He also discusses the generational shift in expectations, including the normalization of paid same-hour delivery via platforms like DoorDash and Uber Eats.The episode wraps with insights from GELF's work helping global brands expand across borders. Jim reveals how localization, unified commerce strategies, and innovative partnerships with distributors are fueling cross-border growth—even amid global trade uncertainty. With AI, logistics disruptions, and rising tariffs reshaping the terrain, Jim calls for nimble thinking and sharper execution from brands and their ecosystems.This rich, wide-ranging discussion offers a panoramic view of retail's past, present, and future—making it essential listening for anyone navigating the changing commerce landscape.

Send us a textPhil Oakley takes us on a fascinating journey through the garment decoration industry, revealing a sector surprisingly behind the digital curve despite enormous potential for transformation. Drawing on four decades of experience across printing technologies, Oakley illuminates why he founded On Point Supply to tackle inefficiencies plaguing fashion supply chains.The statistics he shares are eye-opening: of the 600 million t-shirts consumed annually in the UK, half bear decorations, yet only 70 million are produced through digital processes. The remaining 230 million rely on traditional methods, generating a staggering 40,000 tons of CO2 yearly. This disconnect between modern retail demands and outdated production methods creates a perfect storm of inefficiency, environmental impact, and missed opportunity.What makes Oakley's perspective so valuable is his laser focus on workflow efficiency beyond just printing technology. He describes the evolution from a triangle of print value (image quality, speed, cost) to a square that now includes versatility. Throughout our conversation, he unpacks the fragmented software landscape where no single solution addresses all challenges for bulk production, requiring consultants like himself to identify specific pain points rather than attempting wholesale system replacement.Perhaps most compelling is his comparison of the fashion industry to a car with a Tesla exterior (sleek e-commerce front-end) powered by a gas-guzzling Cadillac engine (outdated production processes). This visual perfectly captures why brands struggle with bloated inventories and unsustainable practices despite sophisticated consumer-facing technology.Ready to explore how digital transformation could revolutionise your garment decoration business? Connect with Phil on LinkedIn or visit onpointsupply.co.uk to learn how focusing on workflow efficiency might be the key to reducing costs, minimising environmental impact, and meeting the demands of today's rapidly changing fashion landscape.Listen on:Apple PodcastGoogle PodcastSpotifyWhat is FuturePrint?

We explore how technology, done right, can serve society, reduce inequality, and connect communities. From public broadband projects to building smart — sorry, connected — cities, Lawrence shares lessons from Toronto to Riyadh, and why tech is only as good as the values guiding it. ⸻ Article ⸻ As much as I love shiny gadgets, blinking lights, and funny noises from AI — we both know technology isn't just about cool toys. It's about people. It's about society. It's about building a better, more connected world. That's exactly what we explore in my latest conversation on Redefining Society and Technology, where I had the pleasure of speaking with Lawrence Eta. If you don't know Lawrence yet — let me tell you, this guy has lived the tech-for-good mission. Former Chief Technology Officer for the City of Toronto, current Head of Digital and Analytics for one of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 mega projects, global tech consultant, public servant, author… basically, someone who's been around the block when it comes to tech, society, and the messy, complicated intersection where they collide. We talked about everything from bridging the digital divide in one of North America's most diverse cities to building entirely new digital infrastructure from scratch in Riyadh. But what stuck with me most is his belief — and mine — that technology is neutral. It's how we use it that makes the difference. Lawrence shared his experience launching Toronto's Municipal Broadband Network — a project that brought affordable, high-speed internet to underserved communities. For him, success wasn't measured by quarterly profits (a refreshing concept, right?) but by whether kids could attend virtual classes, families could access healthcare online, or small businesses could thrive from home. We also got into the “smart city” conversation — and how even the language we use matters. In Toronto, they scrapped the “smart city” buzzword and reframed the work as building a “connected community.” It's not about making the city smart — it's about connecting people, making sure no one gets left behind, and yes, making technology human. Lawrence also shared his Five S principles for digital development: Stability, Scalability, Solutions (integration), Security, and Sustainability. Simple, clear, and — let's be honest — badly needed in a world where tech changes faster than most cities can adapt. We wrapped the conversation with the big picture — how technology can be the great equalizer if we use it to bridge divides, not widen them. But that takes intentional leadership, community engagement, and a shared vision. It also takes reminding ourselves that beneath all the algorithms and fiber optic cables, we're still human. And — as Lawrence put it beautifully — no matter where we come from, most of us want the same basic things: safety, opportunity, connection, and a better future for our families. That's why I keep having these conversations — because the future isn't just happening to us. We're building it, together. If you missed the episode, I highly recommend listening — especially if you care about technology serving people, not the other way around. Links to connect with Lawrence and to the full episode are below — stay tuned for more, and let's keep redefining society, together. ⸻ Keywords ⸻ Connected Communities, Smart Cities, Digital Divide, Public Broadband, Technology and Society, Digital Infrastructure, Technology for Good, Community Engagement, Urban Innovation, Digital Inclusion, Public-Private Partnerships, Tech LeadershipEnjoy.

In 2004 Facebook was created. Two years later in 2006 Twitter was founded AND the very first episode of the Agenda aired here on TVO. Fast forward to 2011 and social media was seen as helping sow the seeds of democracy in the Middle East during the Arab Spring. And many were optimistic that these growing connections would help harness the wisdom of the crowd. It would be like "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" when you asked the audience. And the audience was almost always right. So ... what happened? How has social media evolved? How has social media changed us? And has it been a net negative or net positive? Cory Doctorow, Vass Bednar, Jeff Jarvis, and Douglas Rushkoff join to discuss. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Agility can often get framed as driving massive transformation—but sometimes it's the milliseconds that matter. When every digital moment counts, small gains in speed and efficiency can have a disproportionately large impact on customer lifetime value and brand loyalty. If you could speed up every digital interaction your customers have with your brand by a full second, what would that be worth to your business?Today we're going to talk about how even seemingly minor improvements in speed and performance can have outsized impact on customer experience—and revenue. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Jaxon Repp, Field CTO at Harper. About Jaxon ReppJaxon Repp, Field CTO at Harper, has over 25 years of experience architecting, designing, and developing enterprise software. He is the founder of three technology startups and has consulted with multiple Fortune 500 companies on IoT and Digital Transformation initiatives.
