Successful digital transformations need a focus on the individual

Digitalization represents a challenge for organizations. Some organizational functions such as purchasing, sales, logistics and in general all those that are part of the wider area of supply chain management will be asked to achieve a closer integration to fully exploit the potential of big data and business analytics. In order to achieve the successful implementation of digitalization, organizations need to invest in staff training, empower employees, change the organizational culture to embrace the key role of analytics for the company, and hire leaders who actively support digitalization.
