► How leaders should navigate digital transformation to succeed at the local and global level?

In the next episode of The Dev is in the Details, Kamil Chudziński – a seasoned expert who has led many complex digital transformations throughout his career and across corporations – underlines the real challenges of navigating a company through digital changes, the impact of technology, and the critical role of leadership in driving transformation.

We discuss the steps leaders should take to turn strategy into real results, how to approach different markets, and the role of global and local in the corporate transformation. Especially since most transformation projects fail, the ability to adapt to specific markets and understand their environments, challenges, and cultures is key to success.
