| Information technology is essential to business. It drives industries. It brings governments closer to people. It has major impacts on society. But it’s too easy to get lost in technical complexities and forget the importance of business outcomes. Consider the future of your role. What parts of the business will you take care of? Is technology your job or is the job really business innovation? How is your industry responding to technology? How is your industry exploiting social networks and preparing for the arrival of digital natives in your workforce and customer base? What are you doing about IT developments in emerging economies as they shape global IT markets and as combined “Chindia” emerges to compete globally? The future is filled with opportunity, challenge and, most of all, with big questions and big uncertainties. Fear drives knowledge, knowledge drives action, action drives success. So be afraid, be very afraid! - because there's much to know, much to do and much success to create. | |

| How well are your targeting today's applicant pool? Before they even apply for a job, potential candidates are influenced by your company's reputation. Creating an appealing employment brand goes beyond what's build around your products or services. It tells the story of who you are as a company and what you stand for. It translates into how you value and respect your employees and is essential to engaging Gen X and Y. What does your employment brand say about you?
After onboarding comes the hard part: developing and retaining your IT talent. In a lifetime, most people have seven or eight jobs. At FedEx an employee can have all seven or eight without ever changing companies. Consider that the FedEx CVP of Human Resources began her career as a customer representative and the president and CEO of FedEx Express started as a courier. That’s the kind of development opportunity that creates a group of genuinely loyal employees. Find out how FedEx works to keep 7,000+ employees engaged and inspired through its creative job programs and culture of always delivering an outstanding experience – both externally and inside the workplace.
