Rethinking your business in a digital world conference

MANILA, Philippines — Navigating the digital world can be daunting. Traditional businesses hampered by legacy systems do not know where to begin. While leaders are convinced by the prospects of improved business performance from digital transformation, they are overwhelmed by inertia, confusing digital solutions and uncertainty of how to take the first steps in their digital journey. Riding the digital wave requires business leaders to have the courage and stamina to persist with this transformation.

Targeting key decision makers and top business leaders, The People at Work presents “Re-thinking your Business in the Digital World.” On the back of a very successful conference last year, The People at Work has gathered a stellar line-up of international digital transformation experts from across Asia for this 2019 run. Over this one-day event, they will share insights, experiences and case studies of how companies have failed or succeeded in adopting digital thinking into their organizations.

Kicking off the year’s conference is Charles Hayes, partner and executive managing director, Asia, IDEO who will speak about “From operational efficiency to creative competitiveness: a human-centered view of technology in the 21st Century.” Charles sits on the global leadership team of IDEO, one of the world’s most respected companies in innovation and design thinking. Other confirmed speakers include Donald Lim, chief executive officer, Dentsu Aegis Network, Philippines who will discuss “The Digital Transformation Imperative” and share his thoughts how transformation is being implemented in the Philippines market.

The audience will also hear from Arvind Mathur, chief information technology officer, Prudential Singapore, who has led the transformation of the company from a traditional insurer to a future-focused digital organization and will challenge “Why your technology investments are not working yet!” Sudev Bangah, managing director – ASEAN, IDC will be asking “Is the Philippines ready to slam on the DX accelerator”? He will showcase exciting DX case studies from the Asia Pacific, looks at how Philippines companies compare with counterparts in the region, and where we expect DX for the country to be by 2022.
