“Digital transformation goes beyond superficial changes like adding new software or implementing a few process adjustments. It requires a deliberate and dedicated commitment from leadership, establishing a shared vision and prioritizing it as a primary goal, rather than one of many competing initiatives. It must permeate the core direction of the organization, fostering collaboration and actively seeking input from individuals who possess deep digital expertise. Leadership must be willing to enhance their own digital competencies and guide the organization and its future leaders toward a digitally-driven world”, said Mr.Ralph Yirikian, Director General of Ucom.
He emphasized that embracing digital transformation is especially crucial in today's landscape, as it caters to the needs and expectations of both the Z and Alpha generations, who are inherently connected and reliant on digital technologies for their personal and professional lives.
