Design

Qualitative field study drawing on senior executives' experiences with digitalization projects; inductive process-model development.

Sample and setting

Senior executives leading digitalization projects in incumbent firms in traditional industries; the fetched abstract does not report a numeric sample.

Limitations to keep in view

The qualitative incumbent-firm setting is not a representative sample of startups or SaaS firms, and the process model does not by itself identify causal effect sizes.
