Description
The rapidly increasing pressure of digitalisation presents (company) organizations
with complex challenges and poses considerable risks of mismanagement.
Technological or economic reductions in the potential of digital transformation
not only quickly lead to a loss of acceptance and motivation on the part
of employees, but also undermine their legitimate expectations of participation
and co-determination as well as their ability to self-organise and innovate,
which ultimately forms the basis for economic success.
