When discussing digital transformation with small business owners, the mention of organizational change management is (OCM) followed by blank stares. As a small, tightly-knit group where everyone knows each other and has direct access to leadership, OCM may not seem like a top priority while implementing one of the top ERP systems for small businesses but it is an important one going forward. Around all of this, we also still have a global pandemic and a supply chain crisis that is affecting how small businesses run. So, with that said, what is the current state of Small Businesses?
In today’s episode from our Digital Stratosphere Podcast, we are going to dive into the current state of small businesses and what is coming for them in the future. Joining us for the conversation today is Kristy Barber, Third Stage Consultant Specialist, here at Third Stage Consulting Group.
