McCann Worldgroup: Bridging the gap between technology and the business The Talent Transformation Podcast

"I think being on the technology side doesn't mean you have to be in conflict with the business." Lori Woodcock's sweet spot has always been providing value to the business from the technology side and becoming a true partner to them by speaking the same language and bridging the gap. But that's something that many companies struggle with. In this insightful conversation, Lori, SVP of Talent Technology at McCann Worldgroup, and Avature CEO Dimitri Boylan discussed what it's like to find yourself right in that nexus, as well as the tips Lori can share for others trying to overcome the challenge. 
Lori's passion for data and her quest to build connected systems for the business have had a powerful impact and Lori shared her unique perspective on the importance of safeguarding the ecosystem with a bigger-picture approach to technology. In other words, while she strives to deliver on the short-term demands of her stakeholders, she is always focused on how a new tool or process might impact elsewhere. Striking this fine balance can be a challenge, and Lori generously shared her top tips on change management with Dimitri and our listeners. This episode serves as a masterclass for HR leaders looking to better serve the business and position themselves as true partners.
