Creating an ongoing movement of digital change makers
We often help clients with the design and facilitation of longer term digital transformation journeys. The Gerdau GMakers programme began as a Digital and Business Transformation program in Brazil and was subsequently scaled to include North America. the objective of the program was to help senior leadership across the NA business identify opportunities for real world cultural transformation through the identification of innovation projects which would apply new technologies and ways of working to the steel industry. Hyper Island training began with senior leaders who defined territories / opportunities for disruptive innovation and subsequently a change agent program was designed with 30 employees from across North America. Participants worked on a series of innovation workshops to explore the tools of change and they themselves also became the prototypes of change within the organization.
