Despite the hundreds of analysis reports and experts opinions about the successful implementation of Digital Transformation and Disruption for Telcos rest in the hands of their Leadership, why are the “Old Order” still at the helm?
This is my reaction after opening my LinkedIN and other job sites that advertises Telco recruitment for that special individuals that will be at the middle of their respective Digital journey, and guess what the job positions being offered are for the rank and file level (please, no offense intended). The young candidates (in their 20s’) do not need to be educated about Digital Transformation, they are living every minute of it. The millennial were even suspicious when you tell them that a tablet is actually a pill before the iPad came.
Most of these Senior Telco Executives doesn’t even have a LinkedIn account. Even if they do, its most likely being managed by their secondary secretaries when the primary one is in dispose. Again, no offense intended to the innovative, visionary senior leaders that chart their Telco companies to new heights and are not afraid to break new grounds to do so.
So why are they not posting these Senior positions out in the open? Please don’t tell me that this is due to confidentiality or competitor intelligence reason as this is so 80s’. During that decade, we all say "the walls have ears". Today, there are no walls and ears are replaced by AI drone with sophisticated listening devices. Protecting their senior jobs while the company loses everyday? That reasoning is not easy to swallow coming from the company that provides for everyone.
So for now, i keep my question open. “I still don’t get it?”...
