Beyond Recession: Be Ready for the Next Upcycle | Sadin on Digital

The Big Themes:


Three tips for the precarious present: As the coronavirus
continues to evolve and spread, Wayne says that business leaders
need to be realistic about people returning to work (or not) and
think creatively about how best to move forward.

The CXO Lounge at Cloud Wars Expo: Wayne previews this unique
feature of next month's conference, a dedicated space for
conversations, debates, and jam sessions between and among
C-level execs and Acceleration Economy Analysts.

Looking beyond a potential recession: This year, the tech
industry is going to invest $20 or $30 billion just in
innovation. So while it's good to think about a downturn in
spending, leaders need to have courage to make key investments
now.



The Big Quote: "Have the courage to invest in technology. Invest
in your manufacturing, your supply chain, your fulfillment, your
customer during a slowdown... There's going to be opportunities
at the end of that that we can't even envision today. Be ready to
seize them. And the cloud gives you that opportunity."
