Organisational resilience and technology: Beyond COVID-19
May 07, 2020
Monash Tech Talks

In the COVID-19 crisis, we’re witnessing mass disruptions to businesses which are having a severe impact on the global economy. This ultimately is taking a huge toll on people’s financial, emotional and physical wellbeing.

The current situation has necessitated the fast, widespread adoption of technology, therefore causing unconsidered ramifications on society. But on the other hand, this movement has digitally mobilised organisations and even entire industries – thus driving a new wave of innovation.

In our special Monash Tech Talks webinar ‘Organisational resilience and technology: Beyond COVID-19’, you’ll hear from business leaders and IT experts on:

  • how businesses are responding to COVID-19, with best practice examples
  • the role of technology in stimulating the economy
  • why organisational resilience not only depends on what technology is developed – but also how
  • the different ways businesses can better position themselves for the future.

The panel:

Bernadette Schwerdt - Keynote speaker, author and entrepreneur
Professor Jon Whittle - Dean, Faculty of Information Technology
John Karagounis - CEO and Managing Director, The CEO Circle
Carolyn Chin-Parry - Managing Director and Digital Innovation Leader, PwC Singapore
Professor Simon Wilkie - Dean, Faculty of Business and Economics
