Now or never: harnessing growth opportunities in retail
If you’re not part of Big-Tech or Big-Finance, or Australia’s Grocery Duopoly, your business is likely navigating significant challenges. Investment in additional headcount, new systems, or process is probably quite a way down your list of priorities - behind a lot of optimisation, and just trading through the rough patch. However, for growth-minded organisations with some financial flexibility, there is an opportunity to acquire experienced talent to drive the next wave of growth and innovation for the business.
The COVID-19 pandemic forced a rapid acceleration in digital transformation, prompting businesses to launch many initiatives. Yet, facing economic pressures as consumers become more discretionary in their purchasing, many have since scaled back - delaying or descoping these projects.
