Omschrijving
Tech is changing the world, and large organizations are adapting on the fly. But why do most digital initiatives crash?
Disruption in Action reveals how to take on digital and win. It tells seven company stories, covering the high-level strategy through to the operational nitty-gritty, all based on the authors’ inside experience as Europe’s leading digital transformation experts. They take a unique fictionalized approach to dig deep into not just the tech, but also the people side of change, which is always where the real complexity lies.
Told with striking insights, practical lessons and sparkling wit, this is essential reading for any leader looking to understand digital and shape the future.

‘If you want to see how to make disruption work, this book has many of the answers.’
– Nancy McKinstry, CEO of Wolters Kluwer
‘Tackles this most complex and relevant topic with tremendous in-depth knowledge.’
– Dolf van den Brink, CEO of Heineken
‘Reads like a novel, but with real situations and brilliant insights.’

‘The most enjoyable business book I know and, at the same time, the most detailed display of real experience.’
