DXC Technology sees impact of Millennial workforce on digital transformation
Millennials, typically defined as the generation born between the early 1980s and mid-1990s, have been reshaping everything from economic spending and eating habits to real estate and healthcare. As firms such as DXC Technology Co. work with clients to provide end-to-end information technology services, Millennials are becoming a key part of enterprise digital transformation as well.
“The big trend that we’re seeing is the role that human resources is now playing in digital transformation of the workforce,” said Graham Stringer (pictured, left), managing director of America sales, workplace and mobility solutions, at DXC Technology. “Millennials are having a huge impact. Millennials want to know if they go to an organization, if they can bring their own device and that they’re going to have a great workplace experience.”
Stringer spoke with Lisa Martin (@LisaMartinTV) and John Furrier (@furrier), co-hosts of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, during the Dell Technologies World event in Las Vegas. He was joined by Kevin Johnston (pictured, right), chief sales and revenue officer at DXC Technology, and they discussed the skills shift associated with growing adoption of cloud technologies and a range of client needs in designing today’s IT infrastructure (see the full interview with transcript here). (* Disclosure below.)
Handling the talent challenge
With $25 billion in annual revenue and nearly 6,000 clients, DXC Technology has built its reputation around helping customers navigate digital change. The company is increasingly finding that clients need as much support in hiring the right skill set as in procuring the technology itself.
“Don’t underestimate the talent challenge,” Johnston said. “The shift to digital and the skills shift that’s required to go with that is probably the most monumental change. Cloud operates at a different speed, and the tools, talents, skills are just completely different.”
In addition to the workforce impact, DXC Technology is finding that its customers have a range of needs, from applying design thinking and problem solving in an IT infrastructure to just enlisting a partner to execute a well-defined plan. Then there is a third group, according to Johnston.
“They need help scaling,” Johnston said. “I’ve started; I’ve got a few hundred AWS accounts. I’ve got private cloud sitting idle. Someone help me!”
