How to navigate your company through digital transformation and avoid deadly traps.
Traditional corporations, "rhinos", have been replaced by a new generation of companies that thrive in the digital economy - "unicorns." They disrupt markets and industries, operate on completely different principles and surpass the "rhinos" in almost every aspect. How can traditional businesses adapt to change, join the ranks of unicorns, or even become one of them?
Based on their own experience and 40 cases from all over the world, Victor Orlovsky and Vladimir Korovkin will give recommendations on how to transform a rhino corporation into a much more efficient and dynamic unicorn capable of defeating tomorrow's competitors.
