July 2020 Newsletter
Dear TBM Council Members,
I’m just blown away with the energy and acceleration within our community over the past few months. It’s just testament to how technology & finance leaders are key to riding this current wave of disruption – and here at the TBM Council, we’re committed to supporting our members through whatever business challenges you are facing right now. Here are just a few of the resources that I would urge you to leverage:
- In Europe we had over 200 delegates join our IT Leaders Series, where Danske Bank, Hermes, Thames Water, Net-a-Porter, OLX & Royal Bank of Scotland shared their stories of managing through disruption. If you missed it, you can catch it via the on-demand sessions.
- The TBM Board of Directors ran a global executive forum, which attracted nearly 300 global CIOs & CFOs, and focused on thriving through disruption, the CFO lens on technology’s business value contribution, and how modern technology & finance leaders are leveraging TBM for business success. We had contributions from State Farm, Credit Suisse, Great West LifeCo, Tyson Foods & more, and you can view in this library of sessions & snippets from the event.
- Also you can peruse this executive summary, over your cup of morning coffee, to see the results of the polls & discussions from this CxO forum.
TBM Conference Virtual Edition Airing from November 9
In order to keep this level of information sharing & collaboration within our community, make sure you sign-up to the TBM Conference 2020 today! This year it will be airing virtually from November 9 and will include lots more thought leadership from your TBM peers across the globe, with plenty of opportunities for you to join in the conversations and learning.
TBM Connect is Moving
I hope you have been able to join your peers on our online community, TBM Connect. This is where we structure our communities and programs, communicate with you, our members, store and share documents and materials from events & presentations, and offer a place for you to find and engage with your peers. Unfortunately, over the past couple years, this platform has become a little dated, but the team is working tirelessly behind the scenes for a rejuvenation using a new fully automated platform. We are hoping to unveil the new TBM Connect within a couple of months, so you will be hearing a lot more from us on this initiative. Please take a few minutes to complete our survey about TBM Connect. We value your input and want to make sure we are enabling you to get the most out of your membership.
