Corporate & Shared Services
National Insights – Spring Edition
Online: Wednesday, March 2, 2022 | 12:00-2:15pm ET • 9:00-11:15am PT
Event Overview
Reimagining Business Processes to Enable the Evolving Government
2022 will continue to change the priorities of public sector corporate and back office services, driving the evolution into more data-driven, communicative, and intelligence enabling decision-making hubs. And where the back office begins delivering strategic, analytical value and continuous improvement capabilities, public sector corporate functions will see more opportunity to pivot and transform their services and take on more of a business enabling role.
To aid further exploration of how corporate functions of the future could take shape, we’ve put together the first Virtual Event in our 2022 Corporate & Shared Services Community National Insights series.
Tune in to hear case studies from corporate-focused peers and discuss how to further create modern, digitally enabled and integrated public sector corporate services divisions in Canada, as the role continues to shift from being task-centric to value-adding through new tools and processes.
The assorted challenges and complimentary aspects of all things corporate will be addressed in two concurrent panel sessions, allowing you to choose the one that piques your own relevant interest most.
