Dr Marcell Vollmer joins us this week on The CEO.digital Show as we shine a light on the mission-critical need for customer-centric transformation, de-risking the supply chain, and much more.

The CEO.digital Show is thrilled to welcome Dr Marcell Vollmer to the show this week. Now a Partner and Director at Boston Consulting Group (BCG), Marcell previously held Chief Digital Officer and Chief Innovation Officer positions at SAP and Celonis. He’s passionate about helping organisations put customers first in their strategic thinking, and we were excited to hear what he had to say. During the discussion:

  • We learned about the secret to long-term success following digital transformation: Customer centricity
  • Marcell discussed the value of being “Apple easy and Google” fast when developing your strategies and designing new products
  • We heard how globalisation and supply chains have evolved in recent years, and why Covid-19 may force a rethink of “just-in-time” schedules
  • Focusing on IoT, Marcell outlined the future potential of technology and what business leaders need to do to unlock value
  • Why transparency and thinking ahead to address customer concerns must steer the innovations of tomorrow
