Disrupt & Advance Webinar - Talent Strategies Driving Digital Transformation
Listen to Joy Macknight of The Banker, Barry Mulcahy of Ulster Bank, and Jim Cassidy from our hosts Code Institute, discussing the talent strategies that are driving digital transformation, Moderated by Mike Wilson – CEO & Founder of ditto.
Digital transformation isn’t a choice for industry, it’s a necessity. And for financial institutions the biggest blocker is finding the right talent to make this transformation happen. How can banks compete with young and agile fintechs, let alone big digital firms like Amazon and Google, as a race to hire the right people intensifies? Is everybody missing a trick? So we’re joined by a panel today who are dedicated to breaking down these barriers to enable businesses to thrive with a rich mix of employees and a diverse workforce. With a multitude of skills, cultures and educational backgrounds. We look at how some financial institutions are winning with varied teams, how tech upskilling is vital for the future and initiatives are broadening participation in tech careers right now.
"I think employees have to own their own career, and banks need to give their employees the necessary tools and support to achieve what they can - their goals in life."
Joy Macknight, The Banker
"One thing that I always think about when it comes to talent mobility is trust - that's a massive selling point for financial institutions and banks."
Barry Mulcahy, Ulster Bank
"What we're trying to do is provide the gateway to a new career for people. As companies are undergoing digital transformation, we are trying to help those companies identify and find those hidden gems within their organisation."
