Brian Sowards: Every Company is a Tech Company
Brian Sowards thinks about problems differently. His experiences as a start-up founder, in private equity, venture capital & as a strategist for some of the world’s leading technology organisations, have granted him a broader view of traditional opportunities. Now as a Global Talent Strategist & Head of Partnerships at Ph. Creative, a Liverpool-based employer brand agency, Brian is responsible for delivering fresh insight on genuine innovation with today’s most-recognisable brands and brilliant thought-leaders. Sounds fun, right?
In this episode, Brian & I discuss how these organisations are increasingly defining themselves by how they leverage technology. And where are most of them on this journey? ‘Just about to jump off the cliff’, according to Brian.
In the Age of Information, the inevitable migration to digital transformation necessitates a redefinition of trust. Decision-making is decentralised as organisations can no longer evolve at the glacial pace they once did. Change is hard. And balancing experimentation with control presents new challenges that most organisations are ill-equipped to manage. Success was once defined as having a repeatable, scalable process. Today, the new battleground is agility.
So who owns the transition?
