This book goes beyond digital transformation. Industry has been changing under the impetus of digital disruption for more than 20 years.
Today, banks, retailers, the media, taxi firms and so many others can testify to the power of digital and the challenges they face.
Every sector faces its own perfect storm in which digital forces are compelling them to look for a new position.
But what if this is just the beginning? What if it transpires that searching for a future transformation plan exclusively from within one’s own industry is not enough?
