How Rapidly Changing Market Conditions are Redefining Jobs (Harvard Business Review) 

June 29th, 12pm ET

This event slid into my inbox late last week, and I think it offers an interesting take on our current workforce challenges. We’ve all been so focused on where we are working from, that we may be missing some opportunities to think about the meaning of the work we are doing and how we get it done. Featuring Ravin Jesuthasan, Managing Director at Willis Towers Watson and coauthor of ‘Reinventing Jobs: A 4-Step Approach for Applying Automation to Work,’ and Susan Cantrell, senior consultant at Willis Towers Watson and coauthor of ‘Workforce of One: Revolutionizing Talent Management through Customization.’

This podcast is being presented by Pierre Mitchell, Chief Research Officer at Spend Matters, and Corey Matthews, Secretary of ISM-Dallas, and will focus on recent CPO-based research. While this session will focus on influence and metrics, it is the first of a series of planned lunch-hour webinars, so keep your eyes out for more. Note: This webinar is for practitioners only.

How to improve your data categorization process with zero impact on your existing IT system environment (Creactives)

Featuring Magnus Bergfors, VP European Research and Lead Analyst at Spend Matters, Jenny Draper, General Manager Europe at Spend Matters, Sebastian Kahlmeyer, Senior Vice President SCM Digitalization & Data Management at Siemens, Dominik Rheinheimer, Senior Manager SCM Digitalization & Data Management at Siemens, and Adriano Garibotto, Co-Founder, Chief Sales & Marketing Officer at Creactives.
