Bring on the Creative Disruption

In the face of ongoing disruption, Boards cannot risk losing touch with changing customer behaviours. Emma Carroll explores how business leaders are using technology to stay close, while also embracing the power of their own imaginations.

Tech and data analytics have not only boosted the insight businesses can gain into their customers but have also raised the bar in terms of what those consumers now expect in return. The media and entertainment industry is a perfect example of this, where both agile new entrants and competition from adjacent industries have driven mass disruption over recent years.
