Keeping Pace with Digital Transformation: Executive Strategies for Insuring Workforce Competency

keeping pace with the digital transformation

Imagine a world where creating a complex, interwoven digital workflow is as easy as drawing on a piece of paper, or as simple as speaking into a microphone. That world is here. In recent weeks, the rapid evolution of the Microsoft 365 software platform has transformed it from a useful digital toolset into an incredible powerhouse of AI-driven capabilities that can revolutionize our business operations.

We've witnessed astounding advancements that make even the most complicated tasks accessible to all. From creating forms and Power Automate routines with a friendly user interface to designing entire applications by drawing or describing them in simple terms, the digital landscape is evolving at a breakneck pace.

As leaders of our organizations, it's essential to recognize the significance of these changes and understand their implications for our workforce. The emergence of AI and the lightning-fast improvements in our daily software applications bring with them a tide of opportunity, but also a pressing need for adaptation.

The growing capabilities of platforms like Microsoft 365 offer our employees a treasure trove of potential efficiencies and enhancements. Yet, without proper training and awareness, they risk falling behind, unable to tap into these powerful tools. It's a situation that could harm our organizations, leading to a lack of competitiveness and financial setbacks compared to those who embrace and exploit these advancements.

As CXOs, we must take the lead in ensuring that our teams are not only aware of these evolving capabilities but are also prepared to use them effectively. Fortunately, providing training and resources has never been easier. With the ubiquity of intranets, we can deliver video training to our employees 24/7. Creating a library of brief, informative videos that are regularly updated can serve as both a training and support resource.

The emphasis should not solely be on training employees on every single feature and technique. Instead, it should start with awareness, enabling employees to understand what is possible and allowing them to identify which functions are relevant to their roles.

The encouraging news is that establishing an M365 training and support site online, featuring an expanding collection of brief videos customized to your organization's requirements, has never been more straightforward. Providing training and support in this format is not only significantly more cost-effective than in-person sessions, but also results in a valuable, lasting asset.

As these platforms evolve at breakneck speed, not every company will keep pace with training methods that match this growth. This presents a golden opportunity for those who do. By staying ahead with our training, we can distinguish ourselves from the competition and forge a path to success that others may struggle to follow.
