In this episode, we discuss how digital and cultural transformation start at the foundational level of change. Before you can begin to implement new technologies, systems or processes, you must start with a deeper dive into culture. Ask questions that allow you to extract more data so you can create a truly sustainable impact. While some developing countries may be behind in technologies, the opportunity exists to leapfrog. Leapfrogging is the notion that nations can bypass traditional stages of development to jump directly to the latest technology. For this to be possible, educating policy-makers on the opportunities is a must. Listen to the episode and share your biggest insight or learning moment.
