Digital Transformation - A Journey, Not a Destination
Our businesses are focused on processes that have not changed for years. The biggest challenge are employers that are too comfortable on their approaches and struggling with change management. Buzzwords converted ideas to a few platforms to increase sales rather than transformation. The focus is on results rather than the journey. Now we are producing data in our day-to-day lives, it has become the new oil, however most industries remain Excel obsessed and driven by a gut feeling approach. The session will discuss how digital transformation should be a journey that delivers efficiency and benefits to the customers.
