Go Big or Go Home

Does digital transformation cause more problems than it solves? With big enterprise-wide change comes big expectations, yet the reality doesn’t always match up. Only 20% of companies achieve more than three-quarters of their expected revenue gains. While only 17% achieve more than three-quarters of the cost savings they hoped for. There’s no denying digital transformation is becoming more important in financial services, so how do you get it right? In this episode, Emmanuel Asuquo chats with fintech consultant David M. Brear about why big transformation projects fail - and how to ensure yours isn’t one of them. Tune in to hear why he thinks digital transformation in financial services is only 1% done, how to get your team behind a winning mentality and strategy, and why you’ve got to cause some problems to solve them.

Are financial services doing enough to help neurodiverse people? Is a fear of maths and numbers putting people off finance? Does digital transformation cause more problems than it solves? Do you have to get up at 5am to be productive? Is it getting harder to make customer experience a priority? As always, expect honesty, expect humour. Just don’t expect it to sound like any other financial services podcast. The first episode of Season 3 releases on Wednesday 26th June, and then every two weeks from then.
