Quote: “When we look at transformation in an organization, we don’t look at changing 100% of the people. We don’t look at changing even 60%. We look at finding those 20% that will transform, that have already bought into it, that are open to it.” Kamales Lardi Digital transformation is the adoption of digital technology by an organization to digitize non-digital products, services or operations.
