00:34- About Penny Wong
- Penny Wong is the Co-Founder of The Cypher Network
- Penny is a strategic advisor & consultant with a proven track record of two decades in Cyber Security, Payments, and Enterprise software & AI etc.
- She rescued/salvaged 50+ enterprise & govt digital projects from crisis & failure, turning them around into successful outcomes.
14:27- How well thought these organisations are when they ask you to help with a turnaround?
- Projects often fail not due to technology itself, but due to unrealistic expectations and lack of change management regarding policies, governance, etc.
- Simply adopting trending technologies like blockchain or AI without a clear problem definition or opportunity alignment sets initiatives up for failure.
- Before implementing novel technologies, organisations should first understand the specific problems they need to solve or the opportunities they aim to create.
23:23- Are you optimistic about what technology is going to bring us?
- I’m an optimist who believes we can turn bad situations into good outcomes if more people adopt a proactive, positive mindset.
- Emerging decentralised web technologies like Web3 can enable broader, more secure access to information and coordination.
- If coordinated properly with inclusion beyond divides like race and geography, new technologies could help us effectively share resources to meet humanity’s needs in areas like food, energy, etc.
