Key Strategies
1. Define a Clear Transformation Vision—Explain the “why” before the “how.”
2. Lead from the Front—Demonstrate personal commitment to change.
3. Empower Champions—Appoint transformation leaders across departments.
4. Communicate Progress—Share milestones openly to maintain momentum.
5. Embed Agility—Build flexibility into systems and culture.
