Author: CIO.com sponsored by Adobe and Microsoft November 26, 2020 Duration: 23:48
CIOs now have a seat at the boardroom table. But with such responsibility comes a need to drive prolonged change, and to take your people with you. In this second episode of The Living Enterprise, sit back and enjoy a masterclass from world-recognized IT leaders on setting the boardroom agenda, improving stakeholder management and driving digital change within the customer-centric organization. You’ll also hear why it’s important to focus on the small wins, how to articulate and communicate your vision to your peers, and how to build teams with the right culture and mentality.

What does it take for a company to not just survive, but truly thrive in a world of constant disruption? The Living Enterprise explores that very question, moving beyond theory to hear directly from the leaders navigating this shift. This peer-led series, presented by CIO.com and sponsored by Adobe and Microsoft, delves into the practical realities of transforming an organization. Each conversation focuses on the interconnected evolution of people, internal processes, and core technology-the essential triad that defines a resilient business. You’ll hear firsthand accounts of the challenges and breakthroughs involved in improving both customer and employee experiences. The discussions are grounded in the idea that a proactive, adaptive approach is what separates industry leaders from those left behind. Rather than offering abstract advice, this podcast provides a forum for genuine exchange among executives who are actively rethinking their operational DNA. Tune in for candid stories about cultural change, technological integration, and the ongoing journey to build a business that is designed for the future. It’s a resource for anyone interested in how visionary thinking is applied in real time to create organizations that are genuinely alive to possibility.
