Digital transformation has been a goal for many organizations in recent years, and the shift to remote and hybrid working arrangements has only made this desire to future-proof their business more immediate. However, this transition isn’t easy and wouldn’t be possible without major advances in big data technology. Digital adoption has been defined as the reinvention of a company through the optimization of legacy systems and utilization of new technologies.

We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.

Every organization strives to become a disruptor, rather than be disrupted themselves. Not surprisingly, they see the longed-for land of milk and honey in AI — and rightly so.

Marketing a business with legal and regulatory complications is no less than navigating a minefield. What can be said in one state, is best left unsaid in another. Ironically, a vibrant, exciting industry as chance gets all covered in gray. It would not be incorrect to call the last few years, “watershed years” for the casino industry. Europe (including the UK) has always been the leader in the gaming industry.

The Church of Agile is being corrupted from within by institutional forces that have refused or been unable to adapt to the radical humanity embodied in its collaborative, self-organizing, cross-functional teams. A hollowed-out husk of Scrum concealing taskmasters of Waterfall is the Trojan Horse of this betrayal.
