SUMMARY:Why ERP initiatives stall - and what successful organizations do differently
DESCRIPTION:An executive panel on ERP as a business transformation catalyst – not a technology implementation. \nERP initiatives rarely fail because of the software. They fail because organizations underestimate the operational\, data\, risk and organizational realities required to make them successful. \nJoin this executive-level panel discussion for a candid\, real-world conversation on what actually determines ERP success – from data readiness and change capacity to cybersecurity risk\, integration and post-go-live sustainability. \nThis 60-minute panel is designed for CFOs\, COOs and CIOs navigating growth\, AI adoption\, private equity pressure or digital transformation and looking to avoid the costly missteps that cause ERP initiatives to stall or fall short. \nWhether you’re evaluating ERP options\, in the middle of an implementation\, or living with a system that hasn’t delivered the value you expected\, this session is designed to meet you where you are. \nRegister here!
