In the plethora of studies, white papers and keynotes on digital transformation, the actual aim of the “digital transformation exercise” is sometimes overlooked: using digital technology to improve your product and the processes behind it. I am always amazed at how digitalization projects are wildly thrown around the existing project. While the core of the…
In a widely read article on the subject of agile companies, I stated that I believe that agile companies are the organizational form of the digital age. That was a while ago and the more I think about it, the more correct and important I find it. It’s about nothing less than the reorganization of…

It’s no secret that I’m not exactly enthusiastic about the innovative spirit of the digital sector.
