"Digital transformation initiatives don't need thousands of people. They need a small team with very little time and very little money." Ok, think this through.

Big businesses have money.

They can create small teams easily.

Creating a short term team with not much money is in the power of every company in the fortune 500, heck, it's in the power of the top 10,000 companies...

And yet we do not see these teams doing these transformations. Shure we see teams creating "friendly digital employee pals" and "Machine learning driven employee survey feedback tools" but what we do not see is small, underfunded teams rapidly changing the face of business.

Because... it's hard. In reality, although executives love the message "small team, no money, fast" the translation that they should be using is "a way of wasting a bit of money and time doing something that will definitely fail"
