As the battle for talent intensifies, the winning companies will be those that create the best human-centric workplaces, says Dropbox Ireland’s Adrienne Gormley.
In an age of digital transformation, from greater automation to robotics, from flexible working to freelancing, how will the leading companies in the world provide great workplaces? This – the future of work – will be a major theme tackled at Inspirefest 2016 by three superb speakers.
In her keynote, Adrienne Gormley, global head of Customer Experience at Dropbox, will look at how the best digital companies will provide outstanding workplaces.
“The current debate on digital transformation is naturally very technology-centric,” says Gormley. “It is characterised by terms such as platform, automation, scalability and disruption. The human factor is often underestimated or even ignored. However, leading digital companies provide outstanding workplaces, which are enablers for productivity, creativity and innovation.”
We spoke to her on the subject ahead of Inspirefest.
While Gormley will share her perspectives on this new future of work, other keynotes will include Monica Parker, Founder of Hatch Analytics, who will look at return on engagement in the workplace, and Katherine Von Jan, managing director of Strategic Innovation at Salesforce, who will talk ‘hacking HR’.
