Three things we can start working on now

Call to action
• Get Fit!
– Continue to hone our Agile
skills
– Think holistically – Inside out
as well as outside in
• Develop high hanging skills
– Take up the challenge
• Focus on the
“transformation” in digital
transformation
– Driving change is not a
“digital” thing

Let’s get on with it…
