CONFERENCE

Without technical excellence there is no transformation (or how to compete with digital natives)

At this point it is clear to all of us that traditional companies have to transform. And that a good part of that effort has to do with adopting an agility mindset and practices at all levels of the organization, implementing profound cultural changes and investing in technology and data. But many have been on this path for several years and yet the most successful digital natives continue to work at a different speed. The solution is not to put more money on the table, but to achieve technical excellence. In this talk we will get down to earth what this is all about and how it can be achieved.
