A Harvard Business Review article by Becky Frankiewicz and Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Digital Transformation Is About Talent, Not Technology, points out:

“...the best way to make your organization more data-centric and digital is to selectively invest in those who are most adaptable, curious, and flexible in the first place.”

“Technical competence is temporary, but intellectual curiosity must be permanent.”

“A much bigger competitive advantage is to harness valuable data, having the necessary skills to translate that data into meaningful insights, and above all being able to act on those insights.”

Excellent read.  It seems as thought the risk of not adapting is increasing significantly.

This article points out that digital transformation is a leadership problem.
