  • Responding to regulatory changes, for example, data protection in the digital world
  • Cross-channel Marketing – ROI analysis, attribution, and optimization
  • Connecting with the connected customer
  • Thinking mobile-first

Experts from North America’s leading financial services and insurance organizations will be debating how new technology is disrupting the industry. Dillon will be providing IT leaders with tips based on his extensive experience at Wells Fargo and Co., as well as Deloitte Consulting, LLP.

As CTO, Dillon heads Enterprise Information Technology (EIT) for Wells Fargo. EIT is the heart of what enables Wells Fargo to satisfy its customers’ financial needs. EIT’s more than 24,000 team members worldwide deliver simple, safe, sound, innovative, and integrated IT products and services to its customers and team members around the world.

Under his leadership, technology team members set IT strategy, deliver systems software design and development, and provide Wells Fargo global customers ‘round-the-clock’ banking access through in-store, online, ATM, mobile device and telephone transactions.

The Millennium Alliance Accelerates Growth with New Office Headquarters in New York

The Millennium Alliance Opens New NYC Headquarters

NEW YORK, NY – May 19, 2017 – The Millennium Alliance is thrilled to announce the signing of the lease for our new 11.500 sqft office at 475 Park Avenue South. The management team gathered for a quick photo to commemorate the moment.

In just 3 short years, we have grown exponentially, now boasting over 60 employees across 2 offices. This new office expansion in New York enables The Millennium Alliance to continue to provide focused executive education, innovative media platforms, research, and senior-level assemblies in the areas of digital & business transformation, growth, policy, and need analysis.

The new office space doubles the office footprint and supports the company’s long-term strategy. Not only will it be designed to incorporate the latest and most modern technology infrastructure, it will also include multiple amenities for employees including gaming areas, refreshment spaces, and dedicated facilities to host customer briefings, seminars and other company activities.

“When we walked into our current space in January 2016, we for sure thought this was going to be our home for the next 5 years. Towards the end of last year, we realized that we had underestimated how much space we really needed to accommodate our growth both product and personnel wise. While other companies in the industry are downsizing, it is great to see that The Millennium Alliance is expanding at the rate that it is. For us to take a full floor in the beautiful 475 Park Avenue South building in Midtown Manhattan is truly an outstanding achievement where all staff who have helped get us to this point should feel really proud.

We really are becoming, and are already seen as by a lot of companies, the leader in the C-Suite collaboration space.” Alex Sobol, Co-Founder and Managing Director.

This year, we are thrilled to welcome another marketing leader Russ Klein, CEO of the American Marketing Association is joining us at Transformational CMO Assembly as our keynote speaker. In the run-up to the event, we sat down with the “flamethrower” himself and quizzed him a little about his career, what’s next for the marketing industry and what advice he would give to CMOs looking to capitalize on the ‘Digital Industrial Revolution’.

Here is a snippet from our interview with Russ:

In any company, the culture and leadership often makes or breaks digital transformation. Back in 2016, you spoke at the Leadership Summit, where you said “Positivity and optimism are the stuff of magic. It’s the magician’s elixir and the opening to possibility thinking which is the stuff of transformational creativity.” Can you tell us a little more about why these leadership qualities are so vital to a successful transformation?

RK: This answer could go on forever. I’m a believer in predictive language. That is, what you say and how you say it is predictive of outcomes. I’m not delusional about it, but I know that any transformation is going to hit low points when you simply must “believe to see.” Positivity isn’t just pixie dust…the science and empirical data on the power of positive thinking is abundant. If you can paint a co-created vision in which your team can see themselves playing an epic role…you have a chance.

Positivity is about being willing to think epic.

Our commitment to equality and diversity on this International Women’s Day 2017

Happy International Women’s Day!

The Millennium Alliance is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce. We aim for our workforce to be truly representative of all sections of society and our customers. We also want each of our employees to feel respected and able to achieve their best within our company.

Our policies ensure that our company operates with equality and fairness in mind. We have created an environment of respect for all in our employment, whether temporary, part-time or full-time.

Here at Millennium Alliance, we work to ensure equality in pay and benefits, terms and conditions of employment, dealing with grievances and discipline, dismissal, redundancy, requests for flexible working, and selection for employment, promotion, training or other developmental opportunities.

We are also committed to creating a working environment free of bullying, harassment, victimization and unlawful discrimination, promoting dignity and respect for all, and where individual differences and the contributions of all staff are recognized and valued.

Earlier this year we became the first company in our industry to offer paid maternity and family leave. Unpaid leave is a huge concern for many expecting parents across the United States. The lack of paid leave causes many challenges, especially for new mothers looking to return to work. One such challenge being the difficulty of balancing the desire to experience a newborn’s precious firsts while ensuring a family’s financial future. Research has shown that the early weeks and months are vital to a child’s development. This is one of many reasons why it is imperative for mothers & fathers to spend adequate time with their newborns, unburdened by concerns about job security or immediate financial obligations. Since its inception, all Millennium Alliance expecting mothers have been guaranteed up to 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave to care for a new child.

We are celebrating International Women’s Day by saying thank you to all those who have helped us to launch and grow our company over past three years.

A message from our co-founder, Alex Sobol:

“Here at Millennium Alliance, we are committed to gender equality. We believe in hiring and promoting talented women. 

We celebrated our three-year anniversary last week, and we would not be in the position we are in as a company without the strong, dedicated, and talented women who make up a majority of our senior management team and company as a whole. Happy International Women’s Day and a special thank you to all of the amazing women who have contributed so much to our growth.
