- How do incumbent professional service firms respond to digitalization?
- How and why digital disruption affects different industries differently?
- Types of disruption (market vs competence disruption)
- Strategies for how to respond to disruption, particularly competence-disruption
- Challenges and opportunities related to competence-disruption
