Exceptional Leaders Rise Up to Meet the Challenges and Drive Transformational Change Across the Modern Enterprise
Together, we are experiencing a crisis of truly global proportions. The sheer intensity and magnitude of this crisis would have been unimaginable last year. Today, we have no choice but to step up and meet the challenges ahead of us, boldly and courageously.Some organizations will founder and be swept away by the economic impact of the virus. Others, however, will flourish and thrive. The modern technology leader will play a pivotal role in determining the future of the enterprise. I am exceptionally confident that, as a group, we will provide the guidance, counsel, advice, and experience required to drive forward and achieve success.Remember, the enterprise is counting on us to overcome the hurdles and devise practical solutions on both the tactical and strategic levels. This is the true test of our character and our determination. I know in my heart that we will make the proper choices and navigate successfully through this storm.At HMG Strategy, we have made the pivot to digital. We are generating a steady flow of highly valuable and relevant content in multiple formats to our incredibly strong global network of technology leaders and executives. We offer a rich series of high-value virtual events – summits, briefings and webinars – that are designed exclusively for technology leaders and executives. I urge you to visit the HMG Live! page on our website to learn more about our rich and genuinely unique schedule of digital experiences.In one of our early virtual events, my good friend Tony Leng observed that great leaders are “givers, not takers.” He reminded us to remain authentic and to offer hope, reassurance and confidence to all of the people who look to us for guidance and direction.I wholeheartedly agree. This crisis represents the ultimate challenge of our careers. We will meet the challenge – and we will succeed.We’re also seeing how many of our top-tier partners are well positioned to enable their clients to make the digital pivot and to innovate and thrive in these times of uncertainty. This includes agile companies such as Adobe, Aisera, Darktrace, Moveworks, Nutanix, Okta, Outsystems, RingCentral, UiPath, Zoom, and Zendesk, among others.Today, we are collectively experiencing a moment of transformation change. Great leaders will ramp up and accelerate their efforts to reimagine, reinvent, innovate and drive value across the enterprise. They will deepen and extend the strength of their relationships in the C-suite and boardrooms, and open new paths to success in receptive markets. They will complete the pivot to digital and embrace the new normal. They will thrive and succeed.Is the glass half empty or half full? I bet that most of us in our amazing industry would say it’s half full. From the perspective of the modern technology leader, we have been given the rare opportunity to genuinely transform ourselves and our companies. Let’s not waste this opportunity. Let’s learn from it, let’s build on it and let’s collectively find the good in these difficult times.I firmly believe that by working together and leveraging our incredible talents and abilities, we will emerge stronger and better from this crisis.At HMG Strategy, we cover what matters most to you: Courageous leadership, inspiration, hope, resiliency, accelerating career ascent, driving a winning agenda and making the world a better place.
