Overcoming C-Level Resistance: How to Build an Irresistible Business Case for Automation
Common misconceptions meet their match.
For banks, credit unions, and insurers, the pressure to constantly innovate and compete in a rapidly changing, digitally focused world has never been more intense. Digital technologies designed to deliver outstanding customer and employee experiences are growing more diverse and complex. Member and customer expectations are becoming more demanding.
Workload automation and orchestration has become a critical way to find the time you need to address your greatest business challenges—but what do you do if your key decision-makers aren’t convinced?
Join Ryan Dimick, SMA's CTO, Andrea Downing, SMA's Product Marketing Manager, and many of your industry peers for a breakdown of how to explain the value of automation to those in the C-Suite, including how to respond when your CIO or CTO says:
- “Our team doesn’t have time for this right now.”
- "We’ve already committed to other tech priorities.”
- "Automation is just too expensive.”
- And more
Whether you’re an IT professional, director, or VP, if you want to remove the roadblocks created by your C-Suite's misconceptions about automation, this webinar is for you!
