Does digital transformation cause more problems than it solves? With big enterprise-wide change comes big expectations, yet the reality doesn’t always match up. Only 20% of companies achieve more than three-quarters of their expected revenue gains. While only 17% achieve more than three-quarters of the cost savings they hoped for.

There’s no denying digital transformation is becoming more important in financial services, so how do you get it right? In this episode, Emmanuel Asuquo chats with fintech consultant David M. Brear about why big transformation projects fail - and how to ensure yours isn’t one of them.

Tune in to hear why he thinks digital transformation in financial services is only 1% done, how to get your team behind a winning mentality and strategy, and why you’ve got to cause some problems to solve them.
