UM has come a long way since its humble beginnings in terms of digitalisation , but there are still tensions between old and new ways of doing things which require continuous resolution for ultimate success .
“ We are operating in a very disruptive environment ,” says Abu Samah . “ The old , conservative strategies have to be continuously reviewed . We want to push for more growth , but there is always the challenge of disconnected gap between strategies . Within an organisation there are many interrelated factors that impact the way they all operate together . So , for example , there ' s a business strategy , there ' s a financial strategy , a human resource strategy and a digital transformation strategy . In this kind of disruptive environment , the goal is to realign and reinvent all of these strategies so that we can move as an institution .” Abu Samah believes that this challenge is one that can be overcome by continuous engagement with all parties involved .
