“In the digital era, we take in five times more information than before digital. It results in a digital
stress affecting our cognitive abilities - resulting in low quality analysis and decisions.
Success in the digital era is not about broadcasting more information but to avoid digital stress and free up
time for cognitive thinking within the organization.”
