It is a complex problem for many reasons.

    #4 How NOT to go crazy in the tech industry? Understand the hype cycle.

    I’m diving into a topic that’s been hitting me hard lately: How not to go crazy when there's so much hype around us? In this episode, I’ll walk you through Gartner’s Hype Cycle, a handy map that shows why each new shiny technology goes from insane hype to disillusionment - before hopefully landing on real, practical value. I’ll share stories from my journey, including negative emotions or imposter syndrome, plus tips on how to stay true to your purpose without getting lost in the digital world.

Let’s face it—enterprises often struggle to balance agility with structure, making it difficult to disrupt industries while maintaining operational efficiency.
