Fractional Chief Digital Officer (Part of your Team)
Overview
- Many small and mid-sized companies struggle to drive meaningful digital transformation due to a lack of executive-level digital leadership with ¬75% failing leading to wasted investment, stalled innovation and competitive disadvantages.

- Unclear digital strategy – No cohesive roadmap aligning technology with business goals.

- Competitive disadvantage – Falling behind digitally mature competitors
