Sidestep project failure
How to inspire talented people to work together to achieve success
70% of digital transformations fall short of their objectives.
Why? Reasons include third party failures, software issues and cyber attacks. Leading the list, however, is change management itself – the House of Commons Treasury Committee named this a root cause of failure in 91% of IT incidents in the financial services sector.
At the heart of change is the need for a cohesive team and strong leadership. This can be hard to achieve in the digital field, where transformation project teams are often assembled almost entirely from individuals from outside the organisation.
