PowerUp Austin: Driving Change with Innovation

Driving innovation in a “we’ve always done it that way” culture

“That’s the way we’ve always done it” is often considered the most expensive response in business, but it is uttered nearly every day in organizations across the country. Business is changing dramatically due to software solutions and technology, and many organizations are falling behind because they can’t get past entrenched ideas. Simple process changes, communication, and software solutions can improve our organizations in countless ways, from automating previously manual tasks to simplifying complex transactions. Why don’t we implement change? Why are we afraid of innovation? How do we challenge and overcome those who say, “We’ve always done it this way?”

Christina Churchill, Principal with RSM US LLP’s Technology and Management Consulting, will discuss how to overcome the fear factor, drive innovation and innovate in finance and accounting.
