Preparing for Business Transformation

Michael Daehne goes behind the scenes of preparing for business transformation with FlexPoint business readiness experts Pedro Cortez and Liz Pryor. 

This conversation builds on a three-part blog series on making the most of the on-ramp to major programs, including preparing the team, defining the transformation, and preparing for transformation.

Liz and Pedro add color to the recommendations based on their experience in consolidating tools in a merger, building custom software, leading major transformation programs, and more. You’ll hear what has worked well for them, as well as natural tensions to navigate throughout business transformation.
