I’m happy to announce the launch of the Business Transformation 150, an elite list recognizing the top global executives leading innovative business transformation efforts in their organizations. Congratulations to the leaders named in our new program!

The Business Transformation 150 (BT-150) identifies the world’s most influential executives across a variety of industries from entertainment, finance, government, healthcare, higher education, retail and sports. They demonstrate an understanding of how the business environment is transforming in response to disruptive forces and are actively preparing their companies to excel during and after the transformation.

The industry is witnessing a shift toward leaders who are much more digitally capable when it comes to transforming the modern organization. The BT-150 highlights the exemplars of an emerging new sensibility in leadership. Common traits of the winners include a passion for productive disruption, a willingness to share lessons learned, a desire to achieve the art of the possible, and have a strong will to apply exponential technologies to improve economic, social and environmental conditions.

Nominations from peers, industry influencers, technology vendors, and analysts powered the exhaustive, six-month selection process for the BT-150. Those selected will be recognized at Connected Enterprise 2017 October 25- 27 at the Half Moon Bay Ritz-Carlton.
