Plenary session:
McKinsey & Company: Rewiring For Productivity – Tech Enabled Operational Excellence
November 4, 2024 | 2:00 – 2:30 PM CET
Is tech accelerating your operations, or getting in the way? Most organizations have started a digital and AI transformation, but few capture the full value; only 7% of leaders say their platforms align with operational excellence levers.
Rewiring organizations and setting strategies to harness technology can create great customer experiences, lower unit costs, and achieve operational excellence. This session will walk through case studies from a variety of industries, showing how successful integration of the right technologies can advance productivity and enable transformations that stick.

Xpo session:
Setting a Vision for Impact in Your AI and Tech Transformation
November 5, 2024 | 5:35 – 5:55 PM CET
Double digit increases in productivity do not come from simply grafting technology onto existing operations. Winning organizations know that tech and innovation should power transformed operating models, in the same way that lean management and agile changed thinking about waste, variability, and flexibility.
CIOs own their organizations’ technology mandates and have an opportunity to be at the forefront of successful digital transformations. Join us to explore how technology, coupled with a refreshed vision of operational excellence, can generate exponential efficiencies and growth at scale.
