James Thornett (VP, Product Development at Ascential) is speaking on “Building a World-class Digital Team in your Company” at 9:45 am on Monday 18th November at Excellence in Leadership 2019, which takes place on Monday 18th – Tuesday 19th November 2019.
In this exclusive preview, James discusses why organisations are striving and competing to find and retain the best digital talent in the modern business world.
James continues to look at the misperception of what organisations can offer digital talent, highlighting the struggle between the brand perception of employers that are digitally native compared to those that are more traditional.
Following this, James emphasises the way in which the role of a leader and the way in which they communicate can affect transformation within an organisation.
James will be speaking at the BTN’s Excellence in Leadership Conference 2019.
