Paul Vragel, president of 4aBetterBusiness, will be a guest on The Peggy Smedley Show to discuss reskilling businesses for digital transformation. He will appear on the Tuesday, March 12, 2019 radio show. The live episode airs at 12 p.m. central time and is available on the show website. Vragel will appear with host, Peggy Smedley, in the 12:15-12:45 time slot, and will be podcasted on Thursday.

In a NewVantage Partners 2019 study of digital transformation, 65 organizations reported that 95 percent of the obstacles stem from organizational issues (alignment, agility, resistance to change) while only 5 percent relate to technology. The study concluded that if companies hope to transform, they must address the cultural obstacles.  

Vragel says, “Companies have recognized the need for reskilling and retraining employees as a result of automation and digital transformation. Ongoing business success with automation and digital transformation require a ‘reskilling’ of the organization itself to address organization and cultural issues.”
