Business Transformation of the Year

Has your business undergone a major transformation in the past 24 months? Have you adopted technologies to help streamline processes? Have you restructured to enable your business to operate more effectively?

  • How you recognised the need for transformation
  • How you sought advice and researched concepts before implementing them 
  • How the marketplace responded and how you guided your team to adapt to key changes
