b'Bob Zukis wants people to understand the digital transformation. He wants people to understand that a successful business needs a trained technologist in the C-Suite. With social technologies showing their power in events such as the manipulation of the US election, he reflects, \\u201cBad preceeds the good, until we learn how to control it.\\u201d His view is that we are just at the beginning of building the regulations and controls needed to bring the good side of social technology to the forefront. He points out education is needed to deliver the promise of the digital transformation to companies, \\u201cOnly 14% of boardroom directors have any technology training.\\u201d He continues, \\u201cAnd even if someone on the board asks the right questions, they have a very low probability of understanding the answers.\\u201d \\n\\nBob runs the USC IBEAR MBA International Business Consulting Project and is CEO of the Digital Directors Network.'
