As the global appetite for AI grows, Appian's low-code platform stands out by making AI more accessible, allowing enterprises to build and deploy AI-powered applications without requiring extensive data science resources. Adam dives deep into how generative AI serves as a force multiplier across the board—from developers building and testing applications faster to end users interacting directly with AI-driven chat interfaces. A key focus of the conversation is Appian's patented data fabric, a virtualized data layer that addresses fragmented enterprise data. This architecture provides the foundation for AI to operate efficiently, pulling together disparate data sources into a unified system. Adam explains how this approach enables businesses to unlock the full potential of AI, helping enterprises tackle complex tasks such as document extraction, PII detection, and real-time data analysis. Throughout the episode, Adam presents several real-world examples where Appian's AI-enhanced solutions have delivered measurable results. From automating the accounts payable process for a U.S. fire protection company to improving student advising through AI chatbots at a large university, these stories reveal how businesses are achieving significant productivity gains and cost savings. In particular, the episode highlights how AI has revolutionized document processing, customer service, and data management, reducing errors and improving accuracy across industries. Adam also addresses the barriers to AI adoption, including common concerns around data privacy, job displacement, and unrealistic expectations. He offers practical advice for business leaders looking to integrate AI effectively, urging them to focus on tangible business outcomes and view AI as a tool to augment human capabilities, not replace them.

In AML's digitally enabled ‘war room' the firm's co-founder and Managing Director, Gareth Morgan, is discussing the good news with his colleagues: the 100-strong precision engineering team has just won the coveted King's Award for Enterprise Innovation. The award recognises ‘leaders in their field who adopt exemplary working practices and inspire other businesses.' It's one of the UK's highest accolades for business excellence. Fittingly for an MTD aerospace issue, the award is in recognition of AML's ability to apply technologies and lean processes more often seen in the automotive sector to unlock a staggering two-fold productivity increase in the aerospace sector: enabling a leading UK jet engine manufacturer to expand into the lucrative business aircraft market which is expected to grow to $36.4bn by 2030. “We are all so proud of what we have achieved and that our skills and talents are recognised at the highest level. It sends a powerful message to our customers that we are constantly seeking better and smarter ways of delivering products to three sectors that are critical to the success of UK Plc – energy, aerospace and defence,” says Gareth, who established the company as a spinout from the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC)16 years ago. The engines for this market require many novel design elements, materials and technologies to achieve the necessary performance levels demanded by manufacturers, regulators and governments. But behind every challenge, lies an opportunity. “This combination of high demand and high technological requirements for an existing customer presented an opportunity for AML to develop a new aerofoil manufacturing process that meets the stringent demands of the next generation of business aircraft engines. This opportunity drove the subsequent R&D to develop this innovation project,” Gareth said. “Our success in delivering this innovation has accelerated our growth by creating eight new roles - six machine operators and two manufacturing engineers – supporting the new robotic production cell built to manufacture these components. Several employees working on the cell have been trained to program and operate it, extending their knowledge and experience,” says Gareth, proving that robotics can increase the demand for skilled roles, rather than remove them. Gareth acknowledges the role that others have played in helping the embryonic AML go from two co-founders and £90,000 turnover in 2008, to a 100-plus workforce and a turnover of £11m and growing today. In the case of the King's Award, he pays special tribute to the Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI) which, over the last decade, has invested £3.6bn in UK manufacturing in “a long-term plan to produce more than 400 cutting-edge aerospace R&D projects across the UK, driving world-class research in sustainable aviation and supporting thousands of jobs”. Funding from the ATI for the Automotive Excellence in Aerospace (AXIS) project, along with R&D support from former colleagues at the nearby AMRC were critical in giving Gareth and his team the financial and technical support they needed to turn this challenge into an opportunity. As with all innovations, this required a venture into the unknown. For AML it meant the adaptation and deployment of robotics using advanced automation simulation tools. It also required the development of a bespoke clamping design, which illustrates the value of having a world-leading R&D partner on your doorstep in the shape of the AMRC's automation experts in Factory 2050. “Working with the AMRC gave us the confidence to be bold as they have R&D strengths in both precision machining and robotics in the aerospace sector. Having such talent on the doorstep gives us a huge advantage as a business,” said Gareth. It is also a reason why South Yorkshire is consolidating its reputation as global player in the aerospace, energy and defence sectors, which was recognised as it is the first Investment Zone in England with a focus on advanced manufacturing. This has been accompanied by an announcement that ATI is investing close to £30m in the AMRC-led COMPASS project to accelerate composite aerostructures with Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems. For Gareth, the big message to government is that ATI's long-term strategic R&D funding is key to expanding what UK aerospace OEMs and their supply chains can achieve when manufacturers have a public sector partner with a consistent vision for the sector and the financial firepower to fund innovation projects.  These investments, all match funded by the private sector, are essential to maintaining the UK aerospace industry's position with a staggering 70% of domestic aerospace production being exported around the world. As thousands gather for the Farnborough Air Show it is also worth reflecting that the sector directly employs 108,000 people and supports over 5,200 apprenticeships across the UK: delivering high-value jobs for a highly skilled workforce. The UK exports £18.6bn with a turnover of £27bn last year. AML, and innovative supply chain firms like them, are key to the UK retaining its position as a leading player in this global market. But they are also key to driving inclusive economic growth in the regions and nations of the UK. The success of firms like AML shows that regions don't need a major OEM to drive innovation and growth. “You don't need to produce or innovate the complete product to unlock a significant profit share of the final sale. It's the same in tech. Ask HP or Dell whether it is them or Samsung and Intel who enjoy the best profit margins when a consumer buys Dell or HP computers?” Gareth said. AML is now a digitally driven tech business. Cloud-based data analytics informs everything they do. But getting there required support. For Gareth, this meant engaging with what he describes  as the ‘brilliant Sharing in Growth programme' whose vision is ‘growing great businesses, by developing great people, for this generation and the next.' “Our war room is the result of that collaboration giving us the manufacturing equivalent of the Starship Enterprise flight deck. No more Monday morning mayhem where people spend hours sifting through data, turning it into graphs and charts. It's all there in real-time dashboards, freeing us to interpret the data and make much better, informed decisions.” But digital is not confined to the war room, it runs like a thread through the whole business: from its extensive quality management system to its adaptive machining algorithms that enable AML to achieve the tightest of tolerances across a range of materials from titanium and nickel-based superalloys, to softer alloys such as aluminium. For the King's Award-winning project AML developed bespoke algorithms to generate efficiencies and ensure that each component's features perfectly blend with the other components' surfaces, increasing manufacturing performance and reducing rejected parts. But not every innovation is entirely high-tech. As part of the ATI-funded project,  AML looked to the centuries' old manufacturing technology of forging to deliver big savings in time, energy and cost. This required collaboration between Redditch-based forging specialists, Mettis Aerospace, the AMRC and AML   to overcome many hurdles, making this a fully integrated manufacturing process that provided consistency throughout the whole manufacturing chain. The lesson from this for policymakers and manufacturers is the need to identify niche capabilities in fragmented global production supply chains that open up new markets and products. But broad economic surveys of regions and sectors alone will not reveal where these gaps and opportunities can be found – that requires real manufacturing intelligence-gathering activity.  As AML's success demonstrates, innovation can have a major impact on productivity. And productivity, which has flatlined in the UK since the 2008 financial crash,  is what drives wealth creation, economic growth and personal prosperity. Back in the war room,  Gareth reflects on the importance of being part of the bigger advanced manufacturing cluster or innovation district taking shape in South Yorkshire. For him, it   puts fast-growing companies like AML on the global stage. As Gareth says: “AML doesn't win it on its own, it wins it by being an integral part of this growing advanced manufacturing cluster. If you're going to compete globally, then you have to be part of a bigger team. When we are successful that means a win for AML is   a win for South Yorkshire and a win for UK plc.”

"For too long," says Todd Dunn, "many organizations have not developed innovation as a strategic and ongoing source of competitive advantage. Instead, some organizations have used it for reputational points in the public eye, but not to deliver measurable value to consumers, customers and the company." That's a big problem, argues Dunn, who was most recently the Vice President of Enterprise Innovation at Advocate Health. Advocate is headquartered in Charlotte, NC, and it's the fifth biggest nonprofit health system in the US.  In this episode, we talk with Dunn about what went wrong in Act 1 of corporate innovation — and what needs to change in Act 2. Our discussion was sparked by Dunn's recent LinkedIn piece, "Innovation: The Driving Force of Competitive Advantage."

In this episode, I'm in conversation with Mike Procee, who at the time of recording was the Manager of Enterprise Innovation, Enablement, and Culture at TC Energy, a large oil and gas utility. Mike's background in entrepreneurship and engineering came together at TC who wanted to accelerate their ability to deal with energy transition and digitalization. The company created an innovation hub that could provide its business units with facilitation, coaching and guidance to improve its ability to embrace positive change. It's proof that big energy companies can change their stripes.   "Everyone's heard the stories about Kodak. Everyone's heard the story about BlockBuster. Nobody wants to kind of follow in their footsteps." Here are some of Mike's quotes from the podcast...  "These little collisions, with HR combining with engineering, your marketing team combining with sales, these groups that don't typically work together getting together are seeing these innovative solutions, and then actually driving more value out of them." "The argument can be made that you don't want to define innovation. Sometimes you want to create a very open space to let the horses run free." Today, Mike is the Manager of Project Enablement at TC Energy.  Mike is an experienced Mechanical Engineer with a demonstrated history of working in hydraulic design and leveraging those skills to help facilitate discussion for optimization. He is passionate about innovation and employee experience while exploring their connection to bottom-line impacts.

Greg Shelly is the VP of Enterprise Digital Marketing at Canadian Tire. Greg is, admittedly, obsessed with attribution and performance, and he cares about organizations needing to understand how their investments are driving customer outcomes. Before joining Canadian Tire, Greg led the business insights and marketing analytics organization at McDonald's and spent eight years at Dell in e-commerce and digital marketing. Being in sales and on the front lines of business lets you truly understand the customer's perspective. It is a sensible, logical start to a career in digital marketing. People who can hack together data-driven solutions can help companies understand their customers in a concrete way that gives them confidence in their marketing decisions. Pushing your comfort zone in your career is necessary to challenge yourself. After a few years, you will start appreciating those struggles for helping you grow professionally and at a personal level. A loyalty program sets the foundation of digital growth by helping companies collect data to better understand their customers. The customer ceases to be a mystery when you have data to understand them. Without a mobile-first approach, you cannot build a close relationship with your customer on a web browser. Being on someone's phone means you have created value in their lives, and you have to make efforts to stay installed on their phones. Action-ready, non-siloed data is the key to better digital marketing regardless of the business use case. Having the right people, the right data, and the right tech makes business growth possible through digital marketing. Personalization is about being customer-centric and talking about the things that matter to them.

  Michael McCathren, innovation lead at Chick-Fil-A, and author of a new book: 6Ps of Essential Innovation, is an expert on the “innovation organization.” In this episode, he shared with us specifics about how marketing departments can develop the capabilities and the culture needed to implement new ideas. Listen in to learn how marketing leaders should adopt an innovation mindset, to make new ideas welcome, and to stimulate “idea equity” in their companies. Michael explains why an innovation organization is NOT the same as an innovative organization, and why it matters. His secret weapon for innovation: Stay close to your customers and let them speak for themselves. Key Takeaways/Three Little Piggies Companies often try to incorporate new capabilities without building a culture that is able to accept them. Marketing leaders can create an innovative culture by asking questions instead of making statements. The voice of the customer can be the “rocket fuel” to drive growth through innovation.

It can be hard to create a strategy for innovation. But if we are talking about B2B enterprise innovation, especially when hardware products are involved (like climate and energy tech), it truly is challenging. Furthermore, if you are looking for advice, few have actually “been there and done that”. Daniel Elizalde is one of those. Furthermore, he has codified his approach in the B2B Innovator's Map, a 6-step framework, whose initial steps are all about strategy definition. While there are a lot of B2B examples, I would argue there are lessons here for product managers in any product. In this episode, we talked about: How to do Strategic Alignment with stakeholders in early phases How to do Market discovery properly (and quickly!) For new products, how to interact with your potential initial customers (or Champions, as Daniel calls them), to understand their needs. The differences in process between B2C and B2B, and new products versus adding on top of existing products. And much more! You can find Daniel on danielelizalde.com, as well as his Blog, Podcast, and much more. You can find the B2B Innovator's Map on Amazon, or download a free chapter on Daniel's website.

Inside G-Force is a dedicated unit of Grange Insurance run by a self-described "insurance nerd" who's focused on driving innovation that positions the carrier for the future—and revolutionizes the industry.

As Enterprise Innovation Officer, Brent Hammer drives innovation efforts forward in support of the Grange enterprise strategy and guides decisions around innovative solutions to boldly position Grange for the future.  He has 15 years of P&C industry leadership experience. Brent has a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Ohio University, MBA from the University of Dayton, and is a licensed CPA and Property & Casualty Insurance Agent in the state of Ohio.  He has also earned several insurance designations, including Chartered Property & Casualty Underwriter (CPCU), Associate in Risk Management (ARM), and Associate in Reinsurance (ARe). Highlights from the Show Brent started his career as an accounting, and joined the Finance team at Grange insurance In the 2010s as the Insurtech scene was starting, Brent became very interested in it, and in the late-2010s, Grange decided to put together a concerted effort to invest in and focus on it, with Brent leading the charge Grange is a company punching above its weight in terms of the attention it gets from Insurtechs, well beyond its geographic footprint or what its size might suggest – all of the Insurtechs out there seem to have Grange on their radar, and are interested in working with them This started from Grange launching G-Force Innovations to get uncomfortable and work on new things and in different ways They recognized the need to have multiple touch points in multiple areas to learn as much as they could, for example working with different VC firms They also focused on real problems rather than just going after interesting tech in search of an application This helped them get the trust and support of the business units who recognized that the innovation function was bringing them real, valuable ideas, allowing the innovation team to be both a partner to the business and an aid on the path of disrupting how they've always worked – Brent used the term Trusted Disruptor Grange also gets recognized because they're in a Goldilocks position – they're small enough to be able to navigate, but big enough to do meaningful things Neither the culture nor the size is enough, but the combination of the two has been critical Before they jumped into innovation, they made a very concerted effort to move the culture to be ready for it and warm the business to do this kind of work with startups Grange has also had continuity of leadership for the past few years, and of its strategy and direction, which has allowed them to make more concerted, consistent efforts to change rather than being whipped around as ideas change rapidly and markedly Given that Grange has a lot of new ideas coming to it, Brent shared some observations In terms of solutions Brent sees coming are Brent sees this as an exciting time and the inflection point where the winners and losers will separate from the pack over the next 2-3 years, and those with the insider knowledge of how the industry works and what the real problems are will be best positioned here This episode is brought to you by Shift Technology (shift-technology.com), and by the the book series, The Future of Insurance: From Disruption to Evolution by Bryan Falchuk (future-of-insurance.com).

Greg Shelly is the VP of Enterprise Digital Marketing at Canadian Tire. Greg is, admittedly, obsessed with attribution and performance, and he cares about organizations needing to understand how their investments are driving customer outcomes. Before joining Canadian Tire, Greg led the business insights and marketing analytics organization at McDonald's and spent eight years at Dell in e-commerce and digital marketing. Being in sales and on the front lines of business lets you truly understand the customer's perspective. It is a sensible, logical start to a career in digital marketing. People who can hack together data-driven solutions can help companies understand their customers in a concrete way that gives them confidence in their marketing decisions. Pushing your comfort zone in your career is necessary to challenge yourself. After a few years, you will start appreciating those struggles for helping you grow professionally and at a personal level. A loyalty program sets the foundation of digital growth by helping companies collect data to better understand their customers. The customer ceases to be a mystery when you have data to understand them. Without a mobile-first approach, you cannot build a close relationship with your customer on a web browser. Being on someone's phone means you have created value in their lives, and you have to make efforts to stay installed on their phones. Action-ready, non-siloed data is the key to better digital marketing regardless of the business use case. Having the right people, the right data, and the right tech makes business growth possible through digital marketing. Personalization is about being customer-centric and talking about the things that matter to them.

We’re at the dawn of a new breed of applications that will unlock the potential of Industry 4.0 —a fourth industrial revolution that will make the enterprise more agile, aware, efficient, intelligent, safe and sustainable. Industry 4.0 is enabled by critical technologies that are each reaching peak maturity at the same time. When these technologies work cohesively and are supported by modern connectivity like private LTE and 5G, massive companies can move at the speed of a startup while maintaining their brute market strength while meeting their internal needs. In this new episode of World Wide Technology’s TEC 37 series on Carrier Networking, host Robb Boyd talks to WWT’s Dan Graham, Don Rogers and Jason Craig to discuss Industry 4.0, how it works, who can piece it together and how it paves the way for a wave of new Fortune 500 companies.

Brian Watson is Principal at CIO Clarity Advisors. He previously served as VP of Enterprise Innovation at Traction Technology Partners, where he and his colleagues help companies source and vet the emerging technology companies that drive innovation and create competitive advantage. Brian is the author of Confessions of a Successful CIO: How the Best CIOs Tackle Their Toughest Business Challenges (Wiley, March 2014), which was a top-rated title on Amazon and has appeared on numerous “must-read” lists for current and aspiring IT leaders. He also served as Editor in Chief of CIO Insight. Brian has spoken and moderated CIO panels and fireside chats at IT leadership events across the U.S. Brian holds degrees from Bucknell University and Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. He lives in Fairfield County, Conn, with his wife and two sons. Show Notes:[01:09] Brian shares his career journey. He is always looking for ways to help CIO’s tell their story or help CIO’s.  [04:01] Brian and Dan wrote their book Confessions of a Successful CIO to share stories about CIO’s that have saved their companies in depth. [06:18] If you don’t have a plan, you plan to fail. [07:13] 2021 is going to be very similar to 2020.  There is a big emphasis on speed. [08:11] We have seen what teams can do when they’re focused and that is going to continue to be a game-changer. [08:18] Extenuating digital investments, e-commerce, and the power of the ecosystem are really important. [09:48] Harnessing your ecosystem for new ideas, better ways to integrate technology, and maximize what you have in your environment already paid off really well for a lot of CIO’s last year and is a big focus of their time this year.    [12:22] The wins are more spread out and not as easy to benchmark.  We don’t know the final outcomes on a lot of the things that have happened.   [13:29] Talent is a perennial challenge for any organization.  Work from home allowed many companies to seek out talent beyond their geography.  [15:54] You want to make this the best employment situation for the people you have right now.   Many companies are asking what they can keep doing in this remote world to keep rallying and motivating their people outside of financial bonuses.  [17:16] One of the other concerns is the workplace itself. What is it going to be and how many people are going to be there?[19:06] Another concern is innovation.  [21:05] Brian’s best advice outside of IT is to set goals that are measurable and tangible.  If you are going to work in an IT organization have a really clear idea of what you want to accomplish.  [21:46] You want to be as focused and goal-driven as possible. Learn as much as you can about the organization and the pathways through it.  Understand your business.  You’re there to enable the company so you have to know what it does.  [22:11] Go through as many professional development exercises as you can. Try to learn as much as you can.  There is nothing better than a mentor.  [24:01] There are so many folks that have been in the technology field for a long time and just want to give back.  There are a ton of people out there that can be learned from and are happy to do it.  [25:32] Brian shares his best worst boss story.[26:20]  It is very important to think about how you are communicating about people and towards people.  [27:43] Brian shares about the nonprofit called ReferVets that he, his buddy, and a team of volunteers are launching soon. Links and Resources:State of the CIO Podcast WebsiteState of the CIO Podcast on Apple PodcastsDan on LinkedInBrian on LinkedInReferVets

We have been told that we are currently in the midst of the fourth industrial revolution. Technology is reshaping how we live and work, but we are only in the first wave of feeling the impact technology has had. In the next few years, many believe that technology will see even greater innovations, which will have a huge amount of influence on just about everything in our lives. Toby Eduardo Redshaw is one of the folks who believe that is true, and as the SVP of Enterprise Innovation and 5G Solutions at Verizon, he's had a front-row seat to some of the exciting technological innovations that will soon be widespread.  Toby believes that we are in the middle of a critical time of change, experimentation, innovation and advancement. On this two-part episode of Future of Tech, he takes us through some of the areas that he sees as ripe to make the biggest impact on our lives and work moving forward. In Part 2 of this discussion, Toby explains how big tech companies need to come together to form partnerships, what it means to innovate with an impact, and the need for even more trust and transparency in the future. Enjoy! Main Takeaways:   Just the Beginning: We are still at the beginning of the timeline of the fourth industrial revolution. In the next few years, expect to see even greater technological shifts than what we have experienced in the last decade-plus. Howdy, Partner: There is more overlap in tech than ever before. As such, the giants of the industry will likely find more opportunities than ever to partner with their counterparts, but it will take a bit of adjustment. Do You Trust Me?: Today's consumers demand honesty and transparency from the companies they engage with. Customers need to trust that a company is doing exactly what it says and that it is operating with the best intentions. Those that break that trust will be doomed to fail. --- Future of Tech is brought to you by Amdocs Tech.

You can experiment and test as much as you want, but at the end of the day, a company is only successful if it brings something to the table that will actually help, change, or make better a part of a person's life. Danger Ahead: As with any industrial revolution, there will be companies that are unable or unwilling to adapt. Those will eventually fail, while the ones that are able to innovate in practical ways will leap ahead. Investing in 5G: The appetite for 5G is widespread. Not only do businesses want the technology, but banks and investment firms are looking to put money into companies that are taking the move to 5G seriously. If you cannot show that you are investing in 5G, you cannot prove to investors that you are preparing for the future. --- Future of Tech is brought to you by Amdocs Tech.

At Crestron they are known for their workplace technology. The company creates automation and control solutions for homes and buildings. They let people control entire environments with the push of a button, integrating systems such as AV, lighting, shading, security, BMS and HVAC to provide greater comfort, convenience and security. All of their products are designed and built to work together as a complete system, enabling you to monitor, manage and control everything from one platform. However, Crestron appeared on my radar again after announcing that have joined forces with Amazon Web Services to make meetings productive by bringing voice control to conference rooms. Alexa for Business is a new service by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that lets you use Amazon Alexa to voice-enable your workplace. Now, employees can start a meeting simply by saying “Alexa, start my meeting.” From launching a web conference to pulling up presentation materials on-screen, the power of Crestron and Amazon Alexa will help ensure meetings are timely and productive. “Everyone has a meeting horror story, and it often involves trying to use the technology for collaboration or a presentation,” said Fred Bargetzi, Chief Technology Officer at Crestron. “It isn’t just annoying – meetings start an average of 10-12 minutes late, and unproductive meetings cost American businesses an estimated $37 billion annually. Now, leveraging the power of Amazon Alexa voice control, Crestron can handle it all for you. Today’s announcement is just the beginning – enterprise voice control is going to be a productivity game-changer.” Crestron and AWS have been working together for more than a year in the residential and hospitality markets, using voice control to optimize living situations. For example, asking Amazon Alexa to set the mood for dinner could lower the shades and lights, and turn on a specific selection of music. Now, the many Fortune 500 companies that use Crestron technology can add similar Amazon Alexa voice-controlled skills to manage their office space. “Voice control is transforming the way we live and work, so the enterprise skill is a natural extension of our existing collaboration,” said Dan Jackson, Head of Enterprise Innovation at Crestron. “People already love Amazon Alexa in their homes, and importantly, they already know how it works. We’re creating one consistent, responsive experience to anticipate your needs, no matter where you are."

We're Only Human 7 - Eight Ways HR Can Drive Enterprise Innovation Host : Ben Eubanks Innovation is often discussed as an activity available only to a select few people or companies, but it is an incredibly powerful tool for companies, especially when we seek ways to use our HR influence to drive a culture of innovation.  In a research report published by the International Board of Innovation Science, Dennis Stauffer explored what separates wildly successful companies from the rest. "When those founders who scored highest on the Innovativeness Index were compared to those who scored lowest, the ventures of the high scorers averaged 34 times as much profit, 70 times as much revenue and employed 10 times as many people. They were also dramatically more likely to be one of the exceptionally high performers that investors call a home run." In this episode, Ben Eubanks discusses 8 key ways that HR leaders can create, reinforce, and drive innovative behaviors in the business. In addition, he covers two common ways that companies kill motivation and innovation with their human resources practices.

Over the past 2 years Robin has been working for Samsung as Chief Enterprise Innovation Officer, where she started a business for Samsung as an Interpreneur. Robin spent 22 years at AT&T (retired) where she led over 30,000 employees at and was dedicated to building a scalable and reliable enterprise class network. Robin also spent 6 years at BlackBerry as Chief Information Officer. Robin demonstrates how one can be innovative, lead thousands of people, create businesses within large businesses and yet stay customer and people relevant. We discuss how culture can kill a strategy in a business. Robin states that sometimes culture can get you into the business and scale but will not keep you in business. Hence you want that culture where the organization evolves to lead market trends by having deep insight, allows for innovation and where you want that employee who wants to be with the company for 40 years We explore the concept of Inclusion Officers, put there so the company does the right thing for their people. And we finish our conversation with the responsibility of boards and companies alike to look beyond shareholder value (as it has been traditionally been defined).
