@swhittle Hi. At the Global Sourcing Association @GSA_UK we practice what we preach and outsource almost everything, including payroll, accounts and legal services. Of course happy to share our experience and views on how to do this well. 😉

[GSA @GSA_UK]

What's impact of automation and how we can use this technology as a driving force for good?

We’ll be hearing from Matt Juden-Bloomfield about @blue_prism’s CSR and Social Impact programme which seeks to address the 'automation paradox'.

@debjani_ghosh_ @nasscom @keshav_murugesh @doshikavita @KSVish57 @sangeetagupta29 Agreed. The entire global technology and business services industry has been superb in its response to Covid-19. @GSA_UK trust barometer we’ve seen an increase of 9% between clients and providers. Awesome collaboration.

@GSA_UK @DLA_Piper talking about AI. Companies need to be mature enough to take a risk-based approach.

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@GSA_UK @DLA_Piper has reviewed all regulators’ requirements for AI to summarise the common ground. Boards are responsible for technology deployments and need to develop ethical oversight frameworks for AI.

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@CMS_law @GSA_UK to successfully contract for AI think about use and ownership, look to mitigate risks on data management and have ethical committees. It’s not the same as contracting for other technologies.

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@MorrisonPaul1 @HackettLondon @GSA_UK a third of AI projects are in the failure zone and only 5-10% deliver high returns. Those that deliver all connect AI to business outcomes, more than just efficiency

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@MorrisonPaul1 @HackettLondon @GSA_UK make or buy AI? If use Service AI ensure you client-manage your service provider for long term success

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@TweetPKG @williamvcarson @GSA_UK The CX sector went above and beyond to keep the lights on and wheels turning for customers and the professionals working within need to be applauded as the essential workers they really were

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

So true - and companies will need to tap in to tech talent and work with partners around the world to drive their restart strategies.

[Nidhi Gupta @tweetsnidhi]

Even before COVID, tech was already permeating into layers of businesses. With the pandemic, the scale & areas of tech adoption will only accelerate at an even higher pace, echoed all at the lauch of @gtbsc @GSA_UK @IAOP @KerryHallard @BPO2SA @PIKOMICT @SLASSCOM @shivendra_1969

@GSA_UK Sergey Ryazanskiy, Russian Cosmonaut opened Astra’s 10th anniversary conference with a focus on the importance of precision and team - it takes 90 mins to fly around the earth. One second delay in braking lands you 200km off target - fascinating and relevant speech.

@vasquezv03_ Apols. Receiving me now?? Thx

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@KPMG @GSA_UK talking about agile values. Agile has just enough structure, just enough documentation, just enough governance, just enough planning. It’s a cultural balancing act between flexibility and chaos.

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

Nokia tells its journey to a worldwide presence with live RPA. More than 45 projects live and over 100,000 transactions processed each month. It’s driven new collaborations. People really like it and it does work with benefits of time, quality and cost.

[Kerry Hallard @KerryHallard]

@GSA_UK @ESgloballaw an email conversation can form a contract, as can a conversation. Shorter contracts are the way forward. Include termination rights, handover provisions and set offs.
