About this episode

When companies and organizations discuss digital transformation, they often focus on effective ways to drive technology adoption and transformation. Our guest today says there’s much more to consider. After earning his MBA at William & Mary, J. Singh has spent 20 years working at some of the world’s most recognizable companies; including Target, McDonald’s, and now SportClips Haircuts, where he’s the Chief Digital Officer. His experience is in analytics, merchandizing, digital innovation, and digital transformation. He says there are a number of elements to consider in terms of digital transformation, such as agility and speed, the competition, the customer, the employee and more. He joins us today to talk about digital transformation and how companies and leaders should think about people, process, and tools as they move forward.
