Key Takeaways:
- Companies that don’t go digital simply will not survive
- What’s holding digital back? The people with an opposition to change. Individual “primal” survival always trumps survival of the “herd.”
- As a leader, you have to empower your people to change, and give them the tools to make it happen.
- Digitized curated “in-store” experiences are the future of retail.
