April 15, 2020 @ 7:00 PM - 8:15 PM EDT
Tom Myers, CPIM
What Inquiring Management Minds Need to Know: The Cloud, Artificial Intelligence, and Security
-
What is the Cloud? Are we in it? Can my business use it?
-
Will robots take over our jobs? Can artificial intelligence help my organization?
-
How can I protect my technology and information at home? How can I make sure I have an organization that is safe from hackers?
-
I will answer these questions and more as we explore these subjects from a business manager’s perspective, not from an IT perspective.
-
In addition, I’ll offer many tips about these topics to help make you both smarter in your personal and business lives and more valuable to your organization.
-
Whether or not you attended the recent ASCM/ASQ presentation about blockchain, come and find out about these other hot topics in the technology realm.
