What If Digital Business Is Business As Usual?
In this episode, Jim and Kim kick off Season 4 of the podcast, discussing what it means to be a digital business, why some digital transformation initiatives didn’t pan out as intended, what we know now that we didn’t then, and some persisting and emerging challenges in transitioning from "transformation" to "evolution" as usual.
Connect with our hosts Jim Hertzfeld, Principal and Chief Strategist for Perficient, and Kim Williams-Czopek, Director of Digital Strategy at Perficient.
