Recenzje

Where clear measures of digital success and failure are sometimes lacking, the authors offer a full treatment of diagnosing and evaluating digital readiness. The rigorous focus on the nuances of implementation, especially in the book's Digital Economy Kit and strategy primer, make this critical reading for both scholars and practitioners!
