Webinar: Mastering the equation of innovation, technology adoption, and human readiness

Join the Health and Safety Society for their upcoming webinar: Mastering the equation of innovation, technology adoption, and human readiness.

About this event

The rapid pace of change and technological advancement in organisations can make people feel as though it is thrust upon them and cause deep unrest, even though the technologies were intended to be beneficial. This defeats business purposes.

This webinar will explain a four-factor person-centered approach to effective technology adoption. Participants will learn how to build a better business case and test organisational readiness to adopt technology using an ecosystem paradigm (many points of view) to suit different contexts (health and safety, workforce strategy, people and culture, and project management, for example).

This webinar will also profile technology use cases with practical applications in mining. The presentation will include human factors review of nine-stages of technology adoption with the ‘added extras’ of what ‘what-else’ must be done for a whizz-bang culture of transformation and innovation.
