What if the biggest obstacle to your AI strategy isn’t the algorithm, but the 20-year-old software your team is forced to use every day?
Agility requires not just a willingness to adopt new strategies like AI, but also the courage to dismantle the legacy systems that hold your people and processes captive.
Today, we’re going to talk about the hidden costs of outdated technology. While many leaders are focused on implementing the next generation of AI, new research suggests that the legacy systems still running in the background are not just inefficient—they’re actively eroding employee morale, productivity, and could even be a major factor in employee turnover.
To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome, Matt Healy, Sr. Director, Product Strategy & Marketing at Pega.
