Find out where strategy is going
The Association for Strategic Planning's World Strategy Week, a big event I helped create as ASP's president, is underway this week. It features a series of webinars with panels of leading strategy thinkers and practitioners from around the world, accompanied by a variety of other events worldwide presented by ASP's chapers and partners.
I want to underscore the value of ASP's final World Strategy Week webinars and ask you to consider joining in. (If your schedule does not allow attendance, by registering you will receive the webinar recording - and perhaps some panelist slide decks if they are willing to share - soon afterward.)
TODAY'S HOTBED: SOCIAL, TECHNOLOGY & STRATEGY
What a great conversation to come tomorrow, November 6, during World Strategy Week. Ted Coiné, Chairman and Founder of Switch and Shift, and co-author of A World Gone Social, will join Today's Hotbed: Social, Technology and Strategy panel in ASP's webinar at 9 am PST to share insights about the impact of social media and technology on business and strategy.
In this new digital age, organizations that don't embrace social media and new technology as tools for communication, connectedness and innovation, will be destined to fail. Coiné's focus on how social media has fundamentally changed the way businesses innovate, build teams, and serve customers speaks to the importance of change.
Watch this interview with Ted Coiné and co-author Mark Babbit for a taste of what to expect and to reinforce why you want to join this webinar.
Ted will be joined by other thinkers of note:
Dr. Ahmed Darwish, Former Cabinet Minister, Government of Egypt
Anthony Marshall, Global CEO & Director, IBM Institute for Business Value
Joon S. Han, Strategist and Social Entrepreneur, Better San Diego
The session will be moderated by Shawn Murphy, CEO and co-founder of Switch & Shift
