Glenville Drive, Building A Richardson, TX 75082 Copyright © 2019 Berry Appleman & Leiden LLP PERCEPTIONS Transformation Times Three hich came first, the chicken or the egg? It’s an age-old question that was first asked by the Greek writer Plutarch. Even without one philosophical bone in my body, I found myself going down a similar road when composing this column. Our industry is changing. Our organization is changing. Our careers are changing. Which transformation started first? It’s hard to say, because what creates our work, and how we come together to address it, and how we grow ourselves in the process are so interconnected. Take the mobility industry: We’re responding to—or getting ahead of—competition and Wother social, technological, geopolitical, and financial influences. The employers whose workforces we help deploy are rich in disruption! Business models are changing, employee preferences are refining the way people learn and communicate, and companies have different workforce strategies in place, from recruiting to retaining. All that activity can’t help but impact our own companies. I’m sure you aren’t doing busi- ness the same way you did it two years ago. Neither is Worldwide ERC®. This new level of change is transforming the way your association develops content, builds partnerships, and delivers fresh concepts, networking options, and learning. It’s more customized. More collabo- rative. More tailored to your point of need and preferred device. And now for our careers: It’s clear the skills that got us here aren’t likely to be the ones that will keep us here or take us into the future. We must figure out what to learn, and then figure out how to learn it—and keep learning, through infinity! Sometimes transformation is frustrating. Sometimes it’s a little scary, because so much is happening all at once. But mostly it’s great proof of our ability to get comfortable with ambigu- ity; to observe trends, plan for change, and shift gears quickly when we need to. What’s the verdict? Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Which transformation started first: our industry, organization, or career? I think I’ll go make an omelet and reflect on that. Cheers, PEGGY SMITH, SCRP, SGMS-T President and Chief Executive Officer Worldwide ERC® 8 Mobility | May 2019 Be sure to visit us at Booth 707 at Worldwide ERC’s Americas Conference Mobility Nobility.
