1 Overview CPE credit | Business Management & Organization
As organizations go through a cloud transformation, leaders often prioritize the technological and application-level impact of cloud. But, to realize the true potential of cloud, leaders need to think much more broadly than that—to include cloud’s impact on work, the workforce, and the workplace. We’ll discuss:
- Future of work trends and their impact on cloud strategies.
- Cloud workforce and organizational implications for leaders across the enterprise—including IT, the business, and HR’s role in elevating cloud to deliver competitive advantage.
- Leading examples from companies who are thinking differently about cloud.
