"An insightful, practitioners' guide full of pragmatic ideas and valuable learnings from decades of experience. A must-read for executives vying for industry leadership in digital."

"We live in a time where the fog of technology is often overwhelming, difficult to dissect and changing so rapidly it becomes difficult to have confidence in our decision making. Neetan Chopra takes the mystery out of creating successful digital transformations for companies and their clients in a way that brings light and clarity to an otherwise challenging process. The insights he has gathered through his years of technology experience provide the keys for those who are looking to unlock value during these extraordinary times."

"Only if one has lived through or, even better, driven digital transformation of a major company, can one seriously understand what it means to write a book about it that is worth reading. Neetan Chopra is exactly one of these few leaders who has lived through such digital transformations and knows exactly what it means, what works and what doesn't. Chopra's book is probably one of the very few books about digital transformation really worth reading, as it is not yet another consultant textbook, far remote from reality, but written by true experience and painful learnings."

"Having seen firsthand how Neetan Chopra executes successful digital transformation where others have struggled, I am grateful he has taken the time to write down his framework. His deliberate 'cell by cell' strategy is what it takes to assess, learn and succeed in this complicated mix of technical, business and cultural transformation. And a bonus, he demonstrates learning with this framework by co-authoring
one chapter with an AI bot... brilliant!"

"Organizations need simple frameworks by which they can plan their digital transitions. Neetan Chopra's efforts on achieving this through a well thought out 'Honeycomb Framework' is commendable. His building blocks of digital transformation provide a succinct and clear framework through which readers can apply these in the context of their organizations. The future is about organizations which will survive and thrive in a digitally driven business ecosystem. Chopra's book will help organizations survive and thrive in a VUCA world."

"Chopra's new book helps you reduce bad friction into a manageable hexagon comb while introducing good friction to sweeten the honey from digital transformation."
