Just because technology can replace the work of a human doesn’t mean it always should. No matter how good of a job technology can do, it still lacks the uniquely human ability to cater to the needs of the individual. And while protocol and procedure might suggest one approach, a truly skilled adviser will assess the situation and adjust based on certain subtleties. In this session, Christian will share how advisers can remain relevant in this tech-heavy era, and ensure you are both irreplaceable and more attractive than an AI solution.

Years of research has shown that the success rate of digital transformation efforts is consistently low — in fact, less than 30% of attempted digital transformations succeed. One of the biggest reasons for many of these failures is the failure to also build a digital culture that positively supports and encourages users to embrace the tools being introduced. It is therefore critical to ensure that the users of new technology view it as a strategic driver to support and enhance their work performance, rather than a bothersome impediment. This session will discuss what it means to create and embrace a digital culture, and look at who the real hero of the digital adoption process is...the technology, the IT team or YOU!
