Should You Use a Digital Workforce? with Blue Prism CCSTO, Jet Theuerkauf


Listen Later

So should you use a digital workforce? It does the tedious work and allows your team to focus on the higher-value "human work". This improves profitability, efficiency and productivity while boosting job satisfaction.

However even mentioning the words "digital workforce" can strike fear in the hearts of employees who are concerned about being replaced.

I host Jet Theurkauf, Chief Customer Strategy and Transformation Officer of Blue Prism, who shares how every employee can benefit from digital workers right now.

If you've never heard of a digital worker (not remote worker), you may be surprised to learn that it's a category of software robot trained to perform a task or process in partnership with a human colleague.

Blue Prism is the global leader in intelligent automation which combines the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to deliver digital workers that take away the mundane tasks human workers are overloaded with and empowers them to focus on the profit driving initiatives only people can do.

Jet has more than 26 years of experience leading global transformation initiatives that deliver positive results.

Before coming to Blue Prism he was Head of Transformation at BNY Mellon. Jet has also served as the Chairman of the Diversity Committee for one of the largest banks in Europe, and he is constantly involved in philanthropic efforts.

He has multiple degrees in Psychology and advanced training in business specialties from Harvard, London Business School, and Thunderbird University.
