Welcome to the Tearsheet Podcast. I'm Zack Miller.

Technology continues to infuse new product offerings. But tech's influence is also permeating organizational structures and internal processes in some of the largest financial firms. When Barry Libenson joined Experian four years ago as the global CIO, he entered a very different organization than Experian is today.

Individuals and teams have a natural aversion to change. That makes digital transformation hard, especially at global scale. Barry joins us to talk about how he embarked on a digital transformation at Experian and describes how deeply change was felt across the organization. He addresses the nuances digital faces in the financial industry and the tools and techniques he used to infuse his firm with a “vision of tomorrow”. People matter and Barry makes the point that, in a big way, digital transformation isn't really about technology.

Barry Libenson is my guest today on the Tearsheet Podcast.
