It was a pleasure to speak with Rosalyn Page from CRN Australia about how Australia’s productivity ambitions are increasingly tied to digital transformation, yet the shortage of digital skills is holding businesses back.   The article discusses the pivotal role partners play, with clients turning to them for strategic planning, governance and workforce training. The rise of agentic AI is prompting clients to seek partners that can help embed AI into operations, deliver optimal experiences and enable more differentiated products and services.   This is a time of incredible change and transformation, and it presents a huge opportunity for all organisations. But it’s not just technical skills that will shape the future. Human-centred capabilities like critical thinking and business skills will be essential to making AI work for people and productivity.   Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/gKsTpA85

At the AFR Business Summit earlier this year, I spoke about the value of starting small with AI, building momentum and delivering impact with measurable outcomes. That same approach was front and centre in our discussion with SAP at Government Innovation Day, featured in The Mandarin’s latest article on agentic AI in the public sector. The opportunity for governments is clear: modernise without major disruption, integrate AI into existing systems, and focus on practical results - from aligning budgets with sustainability goals to improving citizen services through faster and more transparent decisions. Thanks to Ryan van Leent, Dr. Chris Nokkentved and Denise Lucero for the meaningful discussion that affirms how small steps in AI adoption can lead to big change.
