Jessica Jones of Alliance Technical Group — Culture Transfer Strategies During Mergers and Acquisitions

April 10, 2024

At the most recent edition of the North American HR Executive Summit we sat down with Jessica Jones, the VP of Human Resources & Legal Compliance at Alliance Technical Group. Jessica hosted a themed lunch discussion on culture transfer strategies during mergers and acquisitions, and in this interview she shared some of the key takeaways from that conversation. M&A activity is one of those topics where HR professionals have a lot of important work to do in a tight time frame, but are often reluctant to talk about specifics. One of the great advantages of the themed lunch discussion format is that it’s an hour around the table with people who opted into this specific topic because it’s relevant to their own experiences and expertise. What an opportunity for like-minded people to share best practices and lessons learned on an important but specific and sometimes sensitive topic. Give this episode a listen!

4PL Solutions for Today’s Supply Chain — A Conversation with Jordan Kass of C.H. Robinson | TMC

May 17, 2024

At the most recent edition of the North American Supply Chain Executive Summit series we sat down with Jordan Kass, the president of TMC, a division of C.H. Robinson, to talk about how supply chain executives are rethinking their logistics in the post-pandemic business landscape of frequent disruption, and how 4PLs are contributing to that ongoing conversation. While third-party logistics companies have always and will always be an important component of supply chains at local, regional, national, and international levels, 4PLs —organizations that take on many of the planning, oversight, and coordination powers of a supply chain organization, including directing and monitoring the actions of 3PLs— are uniquely positioned to modernize and reorganize long-established plans and networks to better meet the needs of today’s businesses. In this conversation we get into what that kind of partnership looks like, how it makes an impact, and what senior supply chain leaders need to be thinking about and learning about as they restructure their organizations for a successful future. Give it a listen!

How the Global Pandemic Changed Information Technology Forever — A Conversation with Gregory S. Smith

June 20, 2022

Gregory S. Smith is the CIO of the American Kidney Fund, a professor at Georgetown University, and the author of five books, the most recent of which is The New Normal in IT: How the Global Pandemic Changed Information Technology Forever. In this interview we talk about his new book and his thoughts on the pandemic and post-pandemic business landscape. Did COVID-19 accelerate trends that were already in the process of becoming the new normal, or was a worldwide disruption of this magnitude necessary to transform our working lives? How has technology allowed us to weather this crisis, and what have we learned from the experience that will inform our future business decisions? Is hybrid and remote work here to stay? How does that inform the ongoing conversations about attracting and retaining top talent?

We also speak about Executive Platforms’ upcoming new series, the North American Technology Executive Summit, and some of the big ideas and key themes that will be included in its agenda. What should CIOs and CTOs be working on right now to position their organizations best for a future whose ‘New Normal’ is still being defined?
