In this episode, Maria Villablanca, a prominent supply chain influencer and CEO, explains why 90% of transformations fail. As the co-founder of Future Insights Network and host of the Transform Talks podcast, she brings insights from over 200 interviews with global executives. Maria identifies the root cause of failure as a neglect of the human element and a lack of a clear "why" behind the change. She advocates for a strategy where technology is the final step, implemented only after defining outcomes and aligning people and processes.

The conversation also redefines the "leader of the future," prioritizing commercial savvy and people skills over technical abilities like coding. Maria encourages leaders to become vocal storytellers of their business value to navigate the current "flock of black swans".
