The Digital Mindset accelerates to understand he power of technology and to speed up every form of interaction and supports pursuing the organizations sustainability goals.

They are: Personal Growth Orientation, Openness and Collaboration with Others, Progressive & Agile Work Methods Adoption, Technology and Data Emphasis and Customer Centricity.
