Summary of Tony Saldanha's Why Digital Transformations Fail

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The retail sector, along with several other industries, is being disrupted by digital technology. It allows workers to migrate to higher value-added responsibilities, and it can free up people to do things they wouldn’t normally do. #2 The goal of this book is to help you understand why digital transformations fail as a means to a more important end, which is how to thrive in an industrial revolution. You will learn how companies either transform or die in industrial revolutions, and how digital transformation is the current generation’s attempt to transform. #3 The current turbulence in retail and other industries is a classic trend during an industrial revolution. Companies die during industrial revolutions, and their demise often occurs despite the best efforts of visionary leaders to transform them. #4 Digital transformation is the modern-day fight to survive the existential threat of digital disruption caused by the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Half the companies on the Fortune 500 list will turn over in the next decade.
