Recently, DX has become common in emerging and accomplished organizations to augment business agility and productivity.

Succeeding Digital Transformation Journey

LEADERSHIP’S DRIVE

For Technology Leaders, a clear Vision, Strategy, Governance, and Measures navigate the business toward achieving a successful transformation. Without leadership commitment and drive, the transformation will continue to be aspirational.

BUSINESS EXPECTATION

For business leaders, business priorities and roadmaps play a vital role when collaborating with your technology partners. Priorities should clearly articulate the short & long-term goals and success factors.

CULTURE

For Business & Technology leaders, organizational culture adversely impacts the transformation initiative. Consequently, the plan should consider the culture of the organization. It should involve the culture in the strategy as a whole. This should be done with the approval and agreement of leadership. To achieve successful transformation, an investment must be made. This investment should accommodate initiatives that foster a shift in attitude and environment. The shift should be congruent with the organization's culture.

SEQUENTIAL

Transformation is an iterative process with change management as a critical approach. People who appreciate change, collaboration, and efficiency would lead a successful and optimistic transformation journey.

ONE-HALF TRANSFORMATION

Data, Process, and Automation are key to delivering operational & process excellence. A few other capabilities need to be considered to bring disruptive organization-wide transformation. These include unified digital technologies, content management, virtualization, and business & IT integration. These should be carefully mapped to build Digital Strategy.

OWNERSHIP & AUTHORITY

Transformation initiatives must employ a Body of Transformation Offices. This Office should define Digital Strategy, Governance, and value engineering and integrate enterprise technology partners representing various technologies. These technologies include Data & Analytics, Automation, BPM, Virtualization, and IT. All these efforts should be cohesively led by the Digital Transformation Officer.
