Recognized Exemplar of Leadership in Driving a Digital Future
SILICON VALLEY, Calif. – June 23, 2020 – Kate Carruthers of UNSW Sydney was recognized by Constellation Research on its 2021 Business Transformation 150, an elite list of executives leading business transformation efforts around the globe.

Digital leaders have been greatly challenged this year by a perfect storm of disruptions due to COVID-19, generational shifts in the workforce, a hypercompetitive new customer experience landscape, and the relentless march of exponential digital change, among other factors. The BT150 nomination process took these influences to heart this year to make sure the list genuinely reflects today’s world and leading trends.

“This year’s BT150 leaders have watched their futures accelerate in front of them. As positive change agents, their hard work to build new business models, accelerate organizational change, and apply new technologies has paid off in the post-pandemic environment,” said R “Ray” Wang, founder and CEO at Constellation Research. “Moreover, their collective drive to improve the world around them and mentor the next generation sets them apart.”

“Digital leaders are currently grappling with much more change than in the past, and we can see in this year’s BT150 that they are perhaps the most multifaceted inductees yet,” observed Dion Hinchcliffe, VP and Principal Analyst at Constellation Research. “More than ever, the BT150 members together a diverse set of business, technology and people skills to drive breakthrough innovation at their organizations and in the industry.”

Nominations from peers, industry influencers, technology vendors and analysts powered the six-month selection process. Each executive on the list demonstrates an understanding of how the business environment is transforming in response to digital and exponential technologies, and these leaders are actively preparing their companies to excel during and after the transformation.
