This year’s attendees will hear from keynote speaker Charlene Li, New York Times bestselling author and thought leader on social media, leadership and digital transformation on businesses and institutions. Li’s book, The Engaged Leader, offers strategic advice for leaders who find themselves in the midst of transition, as more business processes and interactions move to digital channels.
In her book, Li outlines how leaders must adapt and listen to followers, selecting the right tools to not only accomplish objectives and daily tasks, but create an ongoing conversation with followers as well. Li states that while change might be uncomfortable at first, in the end, organizations will thrive while utilizing today’s digital technologies.
Li’s call for digital transformation complements Oracle’s commitment to providing the very best technology and application functionality to institutions, allowing them to serve their prospects, students, alumni, faculty and staff through digital channels.
