The Rise of the Digital Workforce

An exclusive digital forum with Xerox and Avasant

Automation has become a familiar tool in the enterprise environment, but it still invokes apprehensions in the organization. That is because many enterprises make mistakes during their automation efforts or don’t communicate the value to internal stakeholders. In truth, well-designed automation frees employees from the dullest part of their jobs, allowing them to be creative, strategic, and more value-added. The digital workforce of the near future will be one that works hand-in-hand (at least figuratively) with robots to create a more seamless operating environment.

RPA, AI, chatbots, citizen bots and other forms of automation are already changing the way we work. This Digital Forum will discuss:

Latest Innovation in Automation and how they are best deployed to work with the new digital workforce
How to make sure Automation enhances your workforce rather than disrupting it
How Automation can transform the enterprise by saving costs and unlocking new business opportunities
