Eurovision ACADEMY Assembly

Digital Technologies, cross-media audiences and transformation management

What tools for change can you develop and bring to your organisation?

"The direction that most companies need to go in is improving how they enable their people to collaborate with one another at much lower cost by dramatically reducing unproductive search and coordination costs. And that means deploying such devices as talent marketplaces, knowledge marketplaces, and formal networks to make intangible assets flow throughout the company, as opposed to going up and down vertical chains of command." Joanna Barsh, Director in McKinsey’s New York office, USA
