Advanced Practices Council Invites CIO Guests to February Meeting
Madeline Weiss, APC Director, invites CIOs to come as a guest to the February 9-10 virtual APC meeting. It will be a great opportunity to further explore digital transformation across the enterprise and how remote work can enhance the corporate culture while networking with highly respected peers.
Our researcher speakers will be George Westerman from MIT (building digital cultures), Michael Wade from IMD in Switzerland (improving digital transformation success post covid-19), Nicholas Berente from Notre Dame (platform inversion), and Madeline (leading in remote working culture).
SIM's Advanced Practices Council is an exclusive membership program for senior technology executives at leading companies. We cap membership at 40 executives per year, which allows for intimacy among members and Vegas style rules. There is no selling. Our members select the topics for the year and we find the best researchers worldwide to conduct the research. Our members seek to go beyond information they receive from vendors and the press in many ways: strategic perspectives that incorporate all business functions; organizational perspectives that encompass people, process, and culture as well as technology; and practical perspectives on how to execute that come from peers on the firing line.
Please call Madeline at 301-229-8062 or email her at Madeline.Weiss@simnet.org to let her know you are interested in coming as a guest on Feb. 9 and 10.

Featured Chapter Event: SIM Charlotte 'Designing for Adoption'

Designing for Adoption: Tools for Nudging Behavior Change and Creating Sustainable Buy-In
If one were to rank the forces of nature, inertia would have to be high on the list. When applied to people, especially in situations where things seem to be working well, the power of inertia is amplified and difficult to overcome. Yet, as novelist Ellen Glasgow so eloquently put it, "the only difference between a rut and a grave are dimensions." In other words, adherence to the status quo could serve as a comfortable path to failure. All of this represents a barrier for leaders of ambitious technology initiatives and aspiring innovators because sustainable adoption of new solutions often requires a change in behavior by one or more constituencies. So, what can we do? In this talk, David Phillips, founder of the innovation enablement firm, Faster Glass, will share how we can use principles and practices from the fields of Design Thinking and Behavioral Economics to influence individual and organizational behavior change.
