In this era of digital transformation where the focus is more on bringing an alignment between people, process, technology and culture, it becomes imperative to understand why it is so important to stay relevant and focus on purpose-driven change. It is also very important to understand the critical focus areas while leading a digital initiative and the practices to be embraced for enhancing customer experience and achieving enterprise-wide alignment with the strategy. The project management practices, skills, technology and culture should be such which allows customisation, maintains a balance between various approaches and gives the opportunity to deal with the problems in a contextual and pragmatic way. It is not only about achieving agility; but also stability for building a sustainable system and delivering improved value.
