How to Migrate Your Talent to the Cloud
Talent transformation is one of the hardest parts of cloud adoption. Learn how Capital One leverages a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE) to drive cloud fluency across their organization and radically accelerate their cloud migrations. Capital One’s innovative cloud talent transformation program has enrolled thousands of technology associates from both development and operational teams, resulting in over 600 AWS certifications and counting. Hear about the lessons Capital One learned from their early cloud training efforts and how they pivoted their strategy towards an outcome-based learning strategy tightly coupled with their CCoE to improve compliance with their architecture standards and controls. This session will also highlight how the CCoE serves as a feedback loop for the enterprise’s cloud transformation with innovative open source tools built to measure the progress of migrations and accelerate end-user adoption.
GO For A Cloud Certification (AWS)
This was an online session where I and Kaivalya decided to share our journey by acquiring critical cloud skills using Cloud Certification as a medium.

Cloud Computing & Impact Of IT On Organization
Cloud computing involves using large groups of remote servers networked together to provide centralized data storage and online access to computer services. There are three main types of cloud services: public clouds which are hosted by vendors and shared; private clouds which are dedicated to a single organization; and hybrid clouds which use a combination of public and private clouds. The three cloud service models are Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Information technology impacts organizations in several key ways, including enabling new business strategies, changing organizational culture, improving management processes, transforming work, and altering economic impacts through changes in costs.

State of Accounting Profession - Boomer webcast
Is accounting ripe for disruption? Despite some great bright spots, the profession was recently ranked as the second most likely to be disrupted by the Economist magazine.
Tom Hood talks about the shift change and the bright spots and challenges facing our CPA Profession in the future. He concludes with the skills needed to navigate and turn these disruptive threats into major opportunities.
The old 80's party tune from Timbuk 3 aptly describes the state of the accounting profession in 2014 - "The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades." Accounting was ranked as the third best career by a US News and World Report's Best Jobs issue in 2014. With an unemployment rate of half the national average (3%) and a growth rate of 13% for the next ten years according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics most recent report, demand for accounting professionals is at an all time high and projected to continue into the future.
This presentation covers the current state of the accounting profession and includes research about the future from the AICPA CPA Horizons 2025 Project.
For more information on strategic planning, curriculum development and training on the new skills (success skills) needed see our website at http://www.blionline.org

State of Accounting: A Clarion Call for CPAs and Accountants to Get out of th...Tom Hood, CPA,CITP,CGMA
Are you future ready? Do you have the skills to deal with the disruptive forces at work in the market today?
A recent study by Oxford put the accounting and auditing profession at a 94% disruption by technology. In addition the profession is facing the massive “shift change” as a new generation begins to take the reigns from the retiring baby boomers.
Major shifts in leadership, learning, technology, generations, and the workplace are underway. Except this time it is different. This time the incoming shift will require a new set of skills and tools to continue the work of the prior shift. The cause of the shift change is the rapidly changing and complex hyper-competitive environment which has become the new normal.
The key to managing this shift change is a very simple, but very big idea – develop your talent and Keep your L>C.
Tom Hood shares his perspective on how the profession is responding and what you should be thinking about to position yourself for these changes ahead. As the second most influential person in the CPA Profession, Tom was involved in creating a vision for CPAs into the year 2025. That vision talks about how accounting professionals can move up the value chain and the skills you will need to grow and avoid disruption. Tom will share the latest research and real world experience with his work at the Business Learning Institute. Participants will learn about the latest trends and techniques to navigate this “shift change” as leaders of organizations and as individuals.
Tom also introduces the latest research from the Business Learning Institute about the "missing competency" of anticipation and the related "future ready" skills needed by CFOs, Controllers, CPAs, and accounting and finance professionals.
Their new innovative e-learning program on creating the anticipatory organization can be found here http://www.blionline.org/ao

Introducing the “26 Disruptive Technology Trends for 2016 – 2018.” In this report, we’ll explore some of the disruptive trends that are affecting pretty much everything over the next few years at least those that I’m following. It’s not just tech, though. The report is organized by socioeconomic and technological impact.
Obviously, this is not an exhaustive list of every technology and societal trend bringing about disruption on planet Earth. What follows thought definitely affects the evolution of digital Darwinism, the evolution of society and technology and its impact on behavior, expectations and customs.
