COVID really challenged if that was true for a number of companies. Are you able to use technology to adapt your business when significant market changes happen? Is your company able to respond to significant market changes with innovative technologies in a timely manner? Is your business able to survive a significant market change with alternative ways to engage markets? Does your leadership team support the investments to become a company that can take advantage of digital transformation? REAL-WORLD CONSIDERATIONS:Transformation is difficult. Transformation often happens when a crisis occurs - don’t waste a crisis. Leverage cloud computing to “invest ahead” of change, both in terms of technology and people.
