The idea that effective digital transformation delivers agility, adaptability, and customer centricity is now both managerial mantra and leadership inspiration.
In real life, however, effective digital transformations also deliver unforeseen risks and unanticipated costs. Leadersâ emphasis on greater efficiency and productivity has provoked a backlash, particularly from a digitally savvy workforce.
