Rogers, an author, speaker, and corporate consultant, is also a professor at Columbia University. He explains some of the ways companies hurt themselves in transformation efforts, why people management is such a big part of those digital changes, and how some companies are making gains even without big budgets or fancy, new apps.

· The importance of people alignment in a digital transformation effort.

· Why budgeting is not a vital part of such transformations.
