"With digital transformation projects, the technology isn't necessarily the key in terms of getting success. It's definitely about the people...Ultimately, we all want to just do good things for our own customers. I think that's ultimately the goal: the human side is how we work as humans together, but it's how we work for humans, as well." In this episode, Material's Ben Mooney is joined by Jordan Capp, the head of digital experience at Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne. He leads digital transformation projects to help the university achieve its mission of delivering the "next gen" student experience — and Jordan, too, has transformed himself alongside the institution through working there for the past 14 years. Listen to Ben and Jordan's conversation to hear more about how Jordan has moved Swinburne from teams of experts executing to centers of expertise that help set guardrails and cross-functional, journey-based squads, how an exchange program to Japan shaped his emphasis on systems thinking and the "human side" of transformation — and how his young daughter helps him remember that change is inevitable and to embrace the chaos. Hosted by Ben Mooney — Managing Director, APAC at Material Having lived in multiple countries, led global teams, married and fathered three kids, change is something Ben knows all too well – which gives him the perfect background to explore the topic of change and its impacts around the world. In the Changemakers podcast, Ben, Material's Managing Director for Asia-Pacific, focuses on illuminating guests' stories, key moments and navigation points through their change journeys.
