The online tools people have been using for years in their personal lives -- such as mobile phones, Web-based email and chat -- are finally being embraced in the workplace after initial resistance. Some CIOs aren’t just tolerating these tools, they’re adopting them companywide and using them to be more efficient, collaborative and productive -- to completely transform the business. Consumerisation of IT has enabled younger, smaller companies to communicate and collaborate in entirely new ways, without the hardware and software investments of the past. This allows them to grow quickly while focusing on their core business instead of building out operations, posing a real threat to larger, slower moving enterprises. Such innovations in the workplace appeal to the younger workforce and can help companies attract top millennial talent for whom cutting edge culture in the office is as important as the work they do.
Thomas will discuss how organisations -- from financial firms and retailers to media giants and tech startups -- are empowering employees by allowing them to use the tools they want while transforming the way they work together and communicate. Looking forward into the next decade, he will provide examples of how the process of sharing and developing ideas will be dramatically accelerated by the advance relatively young technologies having a major impact on the way products and services are brought to market, businesses are structured, job roles are created and talent is attracted, rewarded and retained.
