About the Podcast

Topic: Join us this month as we talk about harnessing complexity in the modern business world with our guests George Danner and Trevor Hilder.   George describes a future where progressive firms embrace complexity rather than run away from it..  This future is  characterized by a high degree of automation—and suggested that analytics is a key enabler.   Trevor agrees that the future will see enterprises becoming more and more data driven to cope with increasing complexity, with machines taking on a bigger role. But this makes it more important than ever that management remembers what the purpose of the organization actually is, and ensures that its actions all connect back to that purpose.

Hosts:Joseph Paris, Founder of the OpEx Society & The XONITEK Group of Companies
 Benjamin Taylor,  Managing Partner of RedQuadrant.
