SEASON FOUR - In this episode of Talent First, I sit down with Jeanie Anirudhan, PMO at PepsiCo, to break down the realities of digital transformation—why the term itself is often a misnomer and how true transformation is about delivering real business value. We explore the critical role of stakeholder buy-in, the importance of cultivating a digital culture, and how to ensure innovation goes beyond just maintenance. To close, we shift gears to discuss diversity in cybersecurity—what’s improving and where there’s still work to be done.

A must-listen for anyone navigating the intersection of tech, business, and inclusion!
