Can a single person undermine an entire transformation project? Hear the story of a project manager whose refusal to take responsibility wreaked havoc on project progress and team morale. This episode explores the harsh realities of skills shortages in transformation initiatives, especially in the context of remote work during the global pandemic. We discuss the critical need for a skilled and accountable team, emphasizing why rigorous recruitment processes are more important than ever to prevent such chaotic setbacks.
Discover why hands-on experience often trumps certifications in digital transformation and ERP implementations. We delve into the significance of personal values like integrity and trust, which can be more vital than technical skills alone. Learn about effective strategies for upskilling in-house teams with the help of third-party advisors and the growing trend of clients preferring to insource capabilities. We also examine the evolving role of system integrators and the inherent conflicts of interest in prolonged projects, highlighting the need for a balanced approach to foster successful and sustainable transformations.
