How Sumit is building a better working world
“An organization-wide approach that addresses the needs of all stakeholders as well as the right talent and technology are necessary for digital transformation to succeed. I assist companies in this journey across key areas, including user experience design, channels, customer relationship management, robotic process automation, cloud computing, data analytics and change management. This gives them greater flexibility to respond quickly to market and regulatory developments. It also helps them seize growth opportunities, develop new workforce capabilities to manage innovative solutions and improve productivity.”
