Book Reviews
“The discussion of transformation stages is very detailed. For technical people, they would probably agree with the authors point of view. I was surprised that even the pointers for medium to large industries were also tackled in this book, the how’s and why’s of acquiring customers and the tools to use were discussed accordingly. The business process template in implementing a CRM is a must read portion. A detailed procedure is laid down here. It didn’t only focus on the front-end operations but also the back-end operations, whereas it discusses matters relating to human resources & accounting. To wrap up, this is a must have for technology and business people as guide or reference for digital transformation. “
