As digital capability and associated technologies continuously evolve, this is an exciting time of innovation for digital leaders. However, it has become evident that multiple considerations around risk, compliance, legitimacy and security must be considered before beginning any digital transformation. In this panel, digital leaders will reflect on what they see as the causes of digital transformation failures, sharing their experiences, observations and lessons learned. To delineate the top reasons such transformation initiatives fail, they will discuss areas such as:

·        Hype and excitement – realistic expectations of what is possible and how to scale

·        Ensuring internal infrastructure and processes can support continuous digital evolution

·        Data – friend or foe?

·        Security and risk – data governance and cyber security

·        Establishing the right culture for innovation
