About this episode

Everyone wants to do things faster - to get results right away - but that race to the finish line can often end in disaster - or at the very least, disappointing outcomes.

That’s increasingly the case as organizations hurry to introduce new technology, without having explored all the possible impacts it will have on the business - both good and bad.  And without any planning for how to address each potential issue.

In this podcast we are joined byPia Wendelbo, founder of Scandinavian Change Agents.  Pia led process optimization and organizational change at Finland's largest bank Nordea.

Pia  will be discussing:

How companies can avoid making key mistakes when digitizing their operations.

What organizations can do to help team members embrace change.

Why taking a slow approach to digital transformation can lead to faster (and better) results.
