The Digital Lens: Innovation, Technology Trends, and Mission (AM)
The Digital Lens: Innovation, Technology Trends, and Mission (AM)
Friday @ 1:30pm
The digital revolution is changing organizational landscapes. New job descriptions, organizational charts, funding, and spending are being affected by this change. It is quickly moving from service system to nervous system. For ministries who focus on life transformation, this can be a gift if embraced. If not embraced it can be an unwelcome disruption. Leaders who embrace these changes expand new critical metrics, new opportunities for collaboration, new resource partners, and attract next generation leaders.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify new digital trends that are impacting organizations as well as disrupting multiple ways of “how it has been doneâ€
- Assess what the digital revolution is affecting and how your organization might apply it to better your mission
