Ethics refers to "moral rules, codes, or principles which provide guidelines for right and truthful behavior in specific situations" (Lewis 1985, p. 382).

Power & Heavin (2018) argue "Digital disruption is accelerating. Implementing a successful digital transformation strategy requires that senior managers make trade-off decisions to reinvent a business.

Creating a data-centric culture and rewarding data-based decision making leads to successful digital transformation."
