My team was skeptical at first thinking that it was just another regular programme. The OTR workshops turned out to be one of the best time and money investments we’ve had in many years.

The COTR process has translated my thoughts into action and reaffirmed our business strategy. I would like to implore traditional businesses to rethink digitalisation as an opportunity for growth and not a threat.
