This event will focus on the transformation in banks and how to deal constructively with the question „Will I be replaced by AI?“.
You can look forward to these two presentations:
Digital first, leadership last: the safest route to failure
Robert Ulm | Consultant for Strategy, Digitalization and Transformation in the Financial Sector | robmon-consulting
Why and because of what do 70% of all transformation projects fail? Not because of technology. But because of us – the people. Because of our attitude. Because of our leadership. We live in a time in which change is no longer linear. Transformation is not a project that you work through – it is a permanent state. And it can only succeed if leadership sees itself in a new light: from decision-maker to enabler and from manager of the present to shaper of the future.
In this keynote speech, we will go to exactly where transformation really begins – to the blind spots of leadership and culture. Because: Culture is the shadow of a leader. If you want to know why the market changes more than a board resolution, why new leadership requires more courage than method and how real transformation can really succeed – you’ve come to the right place.
Will I be replaced by AI? How decision-makers can dispel the fear of artificial intelligence – and how team members can actually benefit from AI.
Fabian Forthmann | Senior Consultant | msg for banking ag
Demographic change is hitting savings banks and small institutions hard: important knowledge carriers are increasingly disappearing from their own ranks and established processes are threatening to falter. And the universally postulated savior „artificial intelligence“ is also raising job fears or showing qualitative shortcomings. In this jungle of risks and opportunities, managers are called upon to navigate their department through the emerging AI storm.
The experts from msg for banking get to the bottom of the causes of justified employee concerns, shed light on real AI opportunities and discuss how change management methods can be used to lay the foundation for meaningful AI services.
