About this episode
The episode explores the reasons behind the failure of digital transformation projects and offers insights on overcoming these challenges.
In this episode of So You Think You Can Dev , we sit down with Tory Bjorklund , Digital Transformation Specialist and CEO of Victoria Fide Consulting, to explore a pressing question: why do so many digital transformation projects still fail, even in 2025? With decades of experience leading complex tech initiatives across industries, Tory unpacks the disconnect between better tools and persistently poor outcomes. From misaligned business goals to constantly shifting requirements and underprepared teams, this episode dives deep into the human and organizational challenges behind tech failures. We also discuss the evolving role of AI, especially agentic AI, and how companies can lay the right data and infrastructure foundations to take full advantage of emerging technologies. Whether you’re a developer, a CTO, or a business leader navigating change, Tory offers actionable insights on how to align your teams, manage up effectively, and make digital transformation stick. Tune in for a no-nonsense conversation that reframes success around business outcomes, not just technical execution.
