Seeking interview candidates for EIU Agility Study

6/7/2018

0 Comments

 
The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) is conducting a critical study* of organisational agility. As part of this study I will be interviewing a handful of academics, corporate executives and consultants in the US and UK.

The idea is to assess the real factors that drive and create agility, looking for the substance behind a phrase that is often used too lightly.

I expect each interview to last no more than 30 minutes and I need to establish a shortlist of potential interviewees by Wednesday 11 July.

*The study will be sponsored by Slack but conducted independently by the EIU

Seeking senior executives in sales & marketing for interview

27/1/2016

0 Comments

 
I'm looking for two to three interviewees who are senior executives working in sales and marketing in either the US, UK, France or Germany.

They will be interviewed in depth for an Economist Intelligence Unit report looking at how they and their contemporaries view the role and influence of technology over the next two years. These interviews will form part of a feature article attached to a survey of attitudes to the way technology is transforming business.

I want to hear about a range of subjects including:
  • Their objectives in using technology
  • The way in which technology has an impact on their ability to change the business
  • Which new projects they are embarking on using technology
  • What they are looking for in these projects
  • Which technology they believe will have the greatest impact on their business

The feature that emerges from these interviews will form part of a series of stories produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Microsoft.

Please note that interviewees must be in senior sales and marketing roles. Other job titles are not relevant to my specific brief.  Ideally they will not be working for an IT company. I need to assemble a shortlist of potential interviewees by early February.

Looking for an insurance industry case study

9/11/2015

0 Comments

 
I'm looking for an insurance company that is willing to be interviewed about its digital strategy. The resulting article will appear in an Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) report on the Hyperconnected Economy.

The ideal candidate will be a UK company operating in either Property & Casualty or healthcare insurance. I need a business that can answer practical questions about how it has adapted to a digital strategy. Ideally it can tell a good story around the fast-moving world of hyperconnectivity. 

This story will join a series of EIU reports on the subject. For my previous work in this series see below.

Please note that this story only relates to insurance. Other financial services companies are not relevant.

This report is sponsored by software giant SAP, but will be written and produced by the EIU.
