As the Event Director for the very first
OPEX Week Summer - Virtual 2020 summit, it gives me great pleasure to share with you the new release of the re-imagined 2020 program. Having welcomed you to our West Coast home in San Diego for nearly a decade, I am delighted to be releasing a very first to our community: an incredible three days of learning, networking and business development opportunities online.
Transformation by nature is fraught with complexities, growing pains and opportunity for error. Organizations have their own unique DNA of strategy, people, process and technology. In the wake of a global pandemic, now more than ever businesses have to move from re-strategizing the ways in which they work, to operating on a whole new ecosystem.
There is no rulebook to prescribe a one-stop solution for executing operational excellence. One thing I am sure of, is that I have never worked with a more adaptable and resilient sector of leaders, who are always ready to skill-up and better serve their customers, peers and community.
From manufacturing, to financial services, to disruptive technology, many of the enterprises that have re-written the rules of true operational excellence have been driven by some of the greatest minds at the bleeding edge of innovation, challenging traditional ways of working and achieving ground-breaking results.
The 2020 Summit joins these very leaders. To continue to connect, share strategies, engage in unfiltered discussions, and drive business forward during unprecedented disruption. Focusing on how to push business agility to its limits and better apply impactful
OPEX tools. If you are a passionate business leader excited about driving excellence, then I would like to invite you to join us in August.
I look forward to having you join us!
