Conference Preview: Business Process Management and the Future of Work 2016
Every business, at some point, must decide how new technology will impact their existing processes. Digital innovation in the workplace can lead to challenges or improvements, depending on how you adapt.
If you’re wrestling with some of these questions, London-based consulting firm Ovum has two conferences coming up that are perfect for you. Business Process Management 2016 will take place at the Millennium Gloucester in London on November 22, followed by Future of Work 2016 on November 23 at the same location.
The future of your enterprise is only as strong as your willingness to adapt. These two conferences will introduce you to movers and shakers who are successfully implementing business process management (BPM) tactics and doing innovative work in digital workplaces.
