BCG’s Roland Haslehner explains why companies should attempt a digital transformation right now. The benefits of real-time optimization and delivering mega-projects on time and on budget are huge, and companies are often surprised at how much data they already have on hand.

Roland Haslehner joined Boston Consulting Group in 2002. He is part of the firm's global Climate & Sustainability leadership team and focuses on growth transformation for industrial goods companies. Previously, he led the greentech, equipment, and infrastructure business on a global level, and was responsible for the scale-up of the Eastern European offices across all business lines.

Roland’s extensive knowledge of engineered products, infrastructure, and metals and mining make him a valuable asset on strategic and operational projects. He has led numerous transformation and restructuring programs for family-owned businesses and major global corporations.

Roland worked for Procter & Gamble for five years before joining BCG.
