5. John Kleb Sikich “Evangelist”
“Dynamics 365 is the new world. Enterprise and Business versions. Between CRM and AX/NAV, there is not a workload Microsoft doesn't think they can handle. Workload (old name), workspace (new) are key concepts. Over time workspaces will become more separate, plug and play.” “Machine learning and cognitive intelligence will play a huge role in market competitiveness.”

13. From Greg’s Head-My Inspire
Transformation is driving the evolution and creation of new business models.
Disruption of business……..
CEOs ask themselves 3 questions:
Is my strategy ambitious enough?
Is my execution fast enough?
How do I transform my people and their capabilities?
