Today's C-Suite and the organizations they lead are falling into a self-inflicted trap: a theory I've come to refer to as the "Technology Paradox". At the core of the theory are two opposing forces affecting organizations, embedded in the market trends I shared with the CEOs and in their inherent response (1) the external market force of social technologies disrupting industries and the structure of the workforce, and (2) the internal force of organizations reacting with tactical, technology solutions vs. responding with strategic, human solutions.

Recent research from the AICPA says that the business environment for CPAs and their clients will be characterized by “unprecedented, massive and highly accelerated change” through 2025. To thrive in this new age of hyper-change and growing uncertainty, it is now an imperative to learn a new competency--how to accurately anticipate the future. The key to success in this fast-changing environment is to commit to changing before you are being forced to. This session will show how to anticipate these trends and move from being a crisis manager to an opportunity manager.

Digital transformation in financial services: a roundtable May 2014NixonMcInnes
The financial services industry in the UK has a long and illustrious history, its practices and business imperatives developed over hundreds of years. It’s little surprise, then, that at our recent roundtable we heard from decision-makers from across the industry that the sector is stuck in a quagmire of legacy systems that hinder change.
Then there’s the volume of demands on the sector to meet expanding regulatory requirements. Some banks live simply to stay out of jail, we heard. And that effort is exhausting them. So banks are focusing on keeping the ship afloat rather than creating amazing new touch points for customers.
Just think what could be done to improve the customer experience with just a fraction of the budget spent on stopping out-of-date systems falling over, pondered one delegate. And it’s an interesting question when you look at the amount of innovation going on in fintech start ups. The opportunities are there for the picking, but not the cash or focus it seems.

Cómo prepararte para la digitalización (cuando tu profesión está en peligro de extinción)
La naturaleza de nuestra profesiones y trabajos han estado cambiando lentamente desde las últimas décadas; y los hechos han estado ocultos antes nuestro propios ojos. Pero según estudios recientes, estas tendencias “ocultas” se han acelerado debido a la nueva era de la Digitalización que estamos viviendo. En esta charla, hablaremos sobre cómo se clasifican las diferentes profesiones y veremos cómo han ido progresando a través de las últimas décadas. Las conclusiones pueden ser sorprendentes, pero existen datos que apoyan esas hipótesis
¿Está tu trabajo actualmente en peligro de extinción o has escogido la mejor profesión posible para tu futuro (incluso sin saberlo)?

Digital transformation can be defined as a process whereby an organization shifts their business models, processes, and organizational culture with digital technologies to adapt to changing customer behaviors. They adapt to meet ever-changing customer expectations and engage with consumers in innovative ways. Transformational journeys require acurate assessments, learning, growth, and monitoring of:
1) People and Culture;
2) Capacity and Capabilities;
3) Innovation; and
4) Technology.

Telecom’s future is Social (GSMA Mobile Asia 2013)Rob Van Den Dam
The telecommunications industry has facilitated
the rapid adoption of social networking and social business on a global scale. But to
what extent have communications service providers (CSPs) used social networking and
social tools to transform their own businesses? The adoption of social media by CSPs
to engage with customers is still very low. And with respect to applying social tools to
drive innovation, CSPs are clearly outpaced by over-the-top service providers. A new
IBM Institute for Business Value study reveals how CSPs use social approaches to adapt
to the evolving marketplace.
The business landscape is being transformed by a series of megatrends, of which digital technology is already proving to be the most pervasive and potentially disruptive.

This is a lecture I gave at a social media marketing class at St. Edwards University. The presentation shares some context on the evolving marketing landscape, and how social media data and analytics can be used for both planning as well as measuring and optimizing ROI.
This is an updated version of previous presentations I've given on my Reciprocity Theory and the Purpose Economy. I dive into foundational human behavior, technological revolutions, socio-economic evolutions of the last fifty years, and what this means for marketers.
The Purpose Economy: Business Principles for the Post-Capitalist SocietyDavid Fossas
This presentation explores key trends and principles that business leaders, and especially marketers, should be thinking about. The story came about when I started asking myself "What's next?" With technologies and sciences converging, it's hard to conceive the pace of innovation slowing. If anything, it will continue to accelerate, and we'll see a new wave of technological revolutions advance our society. While I don't make any predictions about what that next wave will be, I do share some thoughts on how we can (1) anticipate the timing, and (2) how business leaders can adapt to this shifting landscape.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
