People - The Cornerstone of Transformation
Digital transformation is a key business aspiration in today's algorithm-driven world, yet 70% of such initiatives fail due to overshot budgets, missed objectives, and extended timelines. Even major companies like Hershey’s and HP have faced these challenges. Leaders across industries agree that successful transformation is more about people than technology. Adapting to diverse skills, mental models, and the needs of a multi-generational workforce is crucial.
