This week we had a very special guest at the\u00a0Faculty of Health Sciences<\/strong> of CEU Valencia<\/strong><\/a>: Ana V\u00e1squez Maya, Chief People Officer at Bupa Europe & Latin America<\/strong><\/p>\n

With a lecture under the title “Innovation, People Analytics and Digital Transformation. Leading the change<\/strong>“, Ana V\u00e1squez conveyed her passion for her work and encouraged all attendees to innovate and above all, to learn. She talked about Human Resources Management in a large health company like Sanitas<\/strong><\/a> and she also gave some advice to students so they could improve their future employability<\/strong>, such as mastering English, seeking further postgraduate learning and acquiring digital skills.<\/p>\n

Innovation<\/strong> was one of the key topics of the talk, so the speaker shared with the attendees a couple of innovative initiatives that are being carried out in Sanitas such as online dermatological diagnosis<\/strong> or the use of databases to facilitate early diagnosis<\/strong>. The innovative spirit with which Sanitas has undertaken such pioneering projects was itemized by Ana V\u00e1squez as follows.<\/p>\n

EVERYTHING IS CHANGING AT HIGH SPEED<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We are talking about innovation here but, what is the point of innovating in companies? Why is innovation now more necessary than ever?<\/p>\n

Throughout history, changes have occurred at a dizzying speed<\/strong>. In just 13 years, horse-drawn carriages disappeared from the streets of New York, leading the way to motor vehicles. And if we remember well, only 11 years have passed since the first smartphone was launched. A decade later, it is hard to believe how we cannot live without them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"However, we are not used to this exponential change<\/strong>. To adapt to it and take advantage of the opportunities it offers, Ana V\u00e1squez left us only one key idea: we need to be in a continuous learning process<\/strong>. The evolution of technology, communication, data analytics… lead to a change of paradigm in which we are all forced to move. This adaptation means leaving certain attitudes behind and incorporating new ones. One way to achieve this is to consider:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Which new things do I have to start doing?<\/li>\n
  2. From what I already do, what can I do differently? How can I move on?<\/li>\n
  3. Which things that I’m currently doing need to disappear, so I can start doing new things?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    THE KEY FACTOR FOR ANA V\u00c1SQUEZ: BEING IN A CONTINUOUS LEARNING PROCESS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    The change of paradigm that we have talked about inevitably leads us to an evolution from a traditional<\/em> culture to a digital<\/em> culture<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
