In this episode, Umesh welcomes Hamza Zinedine B., Inside Sales, Marketing, and Strategic Partnerships at Jacobs GTO to examine the role of mid-level management in enabling digital transformation at facility management companies.
In the facilities management space, a key leverage point in digital transformation that is out of sync is mid-level management. While senior management is aware of novel technologies and is driving the change, practitioners under middle managers are busy executing. Middle managers have an opportunity like never before to emerge as leaders who do not just “do digital” but help their organization ”be digital” at the very core.
Tune in as our speakers explore what being digital means, and how Facility Managers can overcome limitations to make the most of the opportunity that lies before them. Plus, there's more on the need for soft skills and digital competence that's growing rapidly in the FM industry.

Hey FM leaders! Are you 'being digital' or 'doing digital'? What's the difference?
Inspired by a recent Mckinsey Inside the Strategy Room podcast episode, Umesh speaks about how most FM organizations are missing the digital agenda if they're just looking to tick use-case boxes without focusing on the larger outcomes.
Umesh explains how being digital means imbibing it in your DNA and transforming how you run your organization from top to bottom.
The difference in the approach itself can spell day-night gaps in how successfully you're able to implement digital transformation, the scale at which you can implement it, and the benefits you can drive from it.
Tune in to discover more insights on goal setting, whether it's a good idea for FMs to develop their own software, and how your existing workforce needs help to really 'become' digital.

This episode with special guest Justin Kirby is a fresh and perhaps the only sensible take on smart buildings and retrofit opportunities in brownfield projects!
With an academic background in human-centered design, Justin has worn a number of hats throughout his career, spanning cross-cutting areas like technology, sustainability, design, and marketing communications. He speaks with Umesh about frameworks like Jobs-to-be-done to shed light on how a smart building is not a destination, but a starting point. Moreover, he uses the term 'connected' as a better representation of the smart building ecosystem, rather than terms like 'intelligent' or 'autonomous' buildings.
Tune in to the conversation to uncover a wealth of insight on how everything ranging from solutions, technology, and infrastructure should be centered around the user if organizations are to strike bigger conversations with customers and achieve their desired outcomes.
