DESCRIPTION
Keynote for the Boomer Technology Summit 2014. The Shift Change describes the five major "shifts" business is making in response to the perfect storm of the three mega-trends - technology, demographics, globalization. Using the two-curves framework from the Institute for the Future as inspiration, Tom has applied the transformational change to the signals and trends happening in the marketplace today. The challenge is to determine if and when you should lead your organization through the shift change, keeping in mind the risk of doing nothing or the RONI - return on not investing. The key to thriving during the shift change is ROP - return on people and the #1 skill needed is collaboration. In order to get your ROP, you need a systematic and strategic approach to your talent development which is exemplified in a training framework from the Business Learning Institute called the Bounce. The Bounce covers the career trajectory of professionals as they move from technical proficiency to managing people and projects and ultimately organizations. The bounce speaks to the change in direction from technical mastery to acquiring competencies to lead others and leading organizations. It is about velocity and trajectory as you shift direction to the need for more “success skills” as you move up n your career. The Bounce includes the latest research on competencies from the AICPA through the CPA Horizons 2025 Project and the CGMA Competency framework. It concludes with the five ways to thrive in the shift change: 1) Purpose and Vision, People, Collaboration and Engagement, Strategy & Alignment, Technology and RONI.

• Identify Competencies • Career Path (Ladder) • Curriculum • Cloud Learning
Our approach – The Four C’s
The right talent with the right skills at the right time
theBounce

Curriculum design by BLI and AICPA using Top 5 Competencies for future from CPA Horizons research and job levels from the BLI “Bounce” Model.
Leadership and Communications were combined and the 5th category
expanded to include practice specialties for firms and functional
areas for corporate.
Examples would include: Corporate Accounting, FP&A, divisional
reporting, shared services, etc. CPA Firms would have audit, tax,
industry specialties.
These technical areas would have specific curriculums designed to
meet their specific technical competency needs.

"We see this system as a key recruitment and retention tool, allowing us to offer our people many of the things that the largest firms do - competency–based curriculum, career paths, and just-in-time learning, and our own custom D&S learning center. " " " "!

Where Did I Get This Stuff?
"One out of five organizations has discovered a secret source of competitive differentiation. It allows them to
serve customers in new ways and reimagine their business models. It can help surface valuable insights
from their data and transform how they make decisions. It enables them to tap expertise from across
their entire ecosystem. And one more thing: It helps these Pacesetters grow revenue and gross profit faster
than other organizations. What’s their secret? It’s cloud computing -– their engine for growth."

5 Ways to Thrive in the Shift Change
1. Purpose & Vision 2. People (ROP) 3. Collaboration & Engagement 4. Strategy & Alignment 5. Technology (RONI)
What do we need to do about it? Imagine if we create a sustainable leadership culture in which
everyone is engaged to accelerate the great vision and mission we have. Imagine a room in which introverts and extroverts create an innovative, multicultural plan to help
us reach our goals.
