Throughout 2020, in many and frequent discussions with clients and candidates, there has been a consistent theme around the opportunity for challenger brands to take market share across most industry verticals. This follows on from a period where businesses have undertaken traditional strategies to market with both products and services in an attempt to ride the rising tide of economic growth.

Consequently, from a leadership perspective, Pacific Talent Partners have witnessed a change in C-Suite roles, with a movement toward strategic decision makers with a focus on balancing both risk with bold moves into new product offerings, customer sets and markets.

Looking at the impact of the last 12-18months, the biggest commercial takeaway has been undoubtedly that the world has gone digital, and there’s no going back. But, what does this mean for organisations and what opportunities and challenges does digital transformation bring?

This morning, Pacific Talent Partners was pleased to host our first 2021 Executive Leadership Series event on the topic of ‘Challenging through Digital: Innovation and Disruption in the New Market’.

An exclusive event at The Langham, key speakers included Stephen Rorie, Chief Financial & Operations Officer of Winning Group, and Jarod Casey, Director of Business Development APAC of Uber.

An engaging and interactive discussion, the keynotes are summarised below.
