He warns that the process takes time and money, is fraught with risk, and usually fails. Fortunately, he provides a detailed roadmap to success, centered on meticulous planning, leadership, project management, and adaptability.

He uses examples and illustrations throughout to guide you each step of the way.

Summary

Reinvention means transformation – digital transformation.

A successful digital transformation enables organizations to expand the scope of their abilities and how well they adjust and react to fluctuating markets, rivals, and customer needs.
