iO Associates are delighted to announce our second Leaders in Transformation & Technology Consulting Virtual Meetup, which will be held on Thursday 24th February at 10:30am!

The session will include a number of panellists to discuss the topics. Our speakers include Adam Skinner, Director of Consulting at P2 Consulting, Andrew Pitkeathly, Head of Manchester Division at Nimble Approach, Darren Lynch, Head of Delivery at Difrent, and Ben Davison, Director at Axiologik, who will be participating in our session surrounding ‘Digital Transformations: What to do when it all goes wrong?'.

In the second instalment of our Leaders in Transformation Consulting series, we are turning the tables and focusing instead on what to do when a transformation has failed.

We will be asking our panellists to discuss several talking points, including:

·       Why ‘failure’ has a different definition based on who you ask

·       Repairing client relationships

·       Recovering projects before it’s too late
