'Transformation is a continuous agenda that businesses must discuss extensively'

Dr Alok Bharadwaj, Founder & MD, CreoVate Transformations & Consulting

“You cannot be a business leader without understanding technology to some extent and therefore it is vital that we look at everyone as business leader. The most important leadership agenda is no doubt transformation. It is so important that today the company that you represent, there are 2 things that are common – that every company wants to grow and we all worry for future. We do not know what kind of future environment is going to turn out. We are now in the era of discontinuity where you cannot connect past with the future. And if that be the case, how do you work out the strategy for the company’s transformation? This is the most important discussion everywhere. Also transformation is a continuous agenda and it is almost like changing the shape of the company continuously.”

Dr Bharadwaj spoke on the entrepreneurship challenges in the country at the 15th VARINDIA INFOTECH FORUM held in New Delhi on 25th May. The VARINDIA INFOTECH FORUM entered its 15th year by bringing together the who’s who of the ICT industry, IT consultants and senior government officials and PSUs and setting up a platform for a day-long event consisting of power-packed sessions of technical presentations, panel discussions and discourses on issues impacting the technology landscape and, most importantly, business networking. The theme of the 15th INFOTECH FORUM was – “Digitization and Role of IoT for Next-Generation Enterprise”.
