EXECUTIVE INTERVIEW:  Leading Digital Transformation with Courage, Compassion, and #ChangeAgents 

David Bray, Senior Executive & CIO, Federal Communications Commission 

Hunter Muller will interview David Bray to discuss the quickest major digital transformation for a public service agenda in U.S. government history. When Dr. Bray first arrived in late 2013, the FCC had 207+ legacy IT systems that were consuming more than 85% of the FCC's budget. There had been nine CIOs in eight years, presenting a challenge for motivating a demotivated workforce. 

Under Dr. Bray's leadership the FCC is now a 100% public cloud and commercial service provider. This reduced the FCC's operations and maintenance costs from >85% of its budget to less than 50% on a flat budget. More importantly, the FCC has reduced the time it takes to start up new prototype systems from six months to now less than 48 hours using modular SaaS components. 

Dr. Bray will share how this digital transformation both prepared the FCC for new opportunities ahead and revitalized its workforce to be positive #ChangeAgents – and how you can apply a similar strategy and tactics to your own organization.

1:50 PM - 2:30 PM   

EXECUTIVE KEYNOTE: Every Company Needs to Work Like a Digital Company.

Aaron Levie, CEO, Box

It's not about rewriting your software. It's about rewriting your company.

To transform your company and compete in the digital age, you need to work like a digital company.But being a digital company is about much more than building an app or applying technology to your existing business. You have to go deeper.You need to fundamentally rethink your products and customer experiences for the digital world. Box CEO Aaron Levie will share lessons learned on how to innovate quickly and nimbly to reinvent your products and build modern customer experiences.

Shawn Banerji, Manager Partner, Technology, Digital and Data Leaders Practice, Caldwell Partners

Mark Polansky, Senior Partner, CIO/IT Officers Practice, Korn Ferry

Moderator: Hunter Muller, President and CEO, HMG Strategy

The secret sauce to driving transformational change is compelling leadership where senior executives clearly communicates the mission and inspire employees to strive for greatness. But driving organizational change is no easy task, especially in long-established companies where cultural roots run deep.

This session will explore the leadership qualities that search recruiters look for in senior executives along with the leadership techniques that foster long-term success.

Edward Stelmack, Director, Commercial Data Management Head - Commercial Operations, AstraZeneca

Moderator: Hunter Muller, President & CEO, HMG Strategy

Leaders who build their skills on a strong foundation of courage have a significant advantage for successfully driving innovation to create value to their organization. Today’s CIO must be prepared to embrace strategic innovation while simplifying IT and bringing legacy operations and applications into the future. To accomplish this, the CIO must be strategically aligned with the CEO and the board.
