The world is constantly changing, this has been said over and over again. In order to keep relevant organizations need to change with current trends. However, those organizations which are well-established and successful are often those the most difficult to change. It is a paradigm of epic proportions. Therefore, leaders within these organizations need to learn that transforming their organizations is crucial in order to remain competitive when the startup is the most powerful organization currently.
