Why 90% of Companies Aren’t Ready
Welcome back to our weekly course series, The Winning Entrepreneur: Your Weekly Guide to Success, a program designed for ambitious entrepreneurs and people who want to turn their ideas into successful businesses. Last week, we talked about the courage to change and how to reinvent your business in the digital age. Today, we talk about the crisis and why 90% of companies aren’t ready for it.
