I had the privilege and honor of being an executive panelist and joining industry experts?Daya Nand, Ph.D. Security-Expert and Clif Triplett to tackle one of the most critical topics of our time: Reskilling and Upskilling the Workforce for the GenAI-enabled Enterprise. Collectively, we shared thoughtful insight on the importance of investing in upskilling early talent to ensure corporations are prepared to survive and thrive alongside transformative technologies. I’m grateful to have been part of this incredible discussion and inspired to keep it going as Genesys Works Houston launches our strategic plan in 2025. A huge thank you to Hunter Muller, HMG Strategy team, and everyone who participated in shaping today’s dialogue. Together, we’re proving the possible for our young professionals!

As companies accelerate their use of Generative AI technologies and applications, research reveals that there are a shortage of in-house and market skills to help companies meet their strategic goals. It’s incumbent upon business technology leaders to train and upskill existing employees to meet these demands. This expert panel at today's Houston Summit featured business technology executives and industry experts, sharing their advice for addressing the GenAI skills gap along with recommendations for cultivating a high-performance culture in the age of accelerated innovation. #Global #Strategic #Advisory #Council #HMGCIOHOU #CIO #CISO #CTO #GenAI #AI #Automation #Cybersecurity #Cyber #ThoughtLeadership
