What is Digital Transformation?

Everybody’s talking about Digital Transformation these days.

Whether it’s upstart digital competitors muscling in on your patch, changing buyer habits or Covid-19, Digital Transformation is right up there at the top of every C-Level Executive’s To Do list.

But what exactly is Digital Transformation? What does it actually mean?

We like Greg Verdino’s definition: “Digital transformation closes the gap between what digital customers already expect and what analog businesses actually deliver.”

That’s it in a nutshell - it’s about closing that gap between the expectations of savvy, sophisticated buyers and your ability to deliver the ‘traditional’ products or services they actually want.

The Importance of Digital Transformation

Digital Transformation is accelerating the rate of change.

A study by McKinsey showed that in 1958 the average age of a company on the S&P 500 was 61 years.

That’s down to 18 years by 2020 & they estimate that by 2027 some 75% of companies currently listed will have disappeared.

Whether via merger, bankruptcies or increasingly due to an inability to react to the new Digital realities this failure to evolve and adapt to the new Digital reality is becoming a matter of life or death for many businesses.

But Digital is not just about Enterprise level businesses - it affects businesses of all sizes in all sectors. No one is immune.

Getting Started with Digital Transformation

So where’s the starting point?

First & foremost Senior Decision Makers need to honestly answer the following questions:

  • Are you using analytics to gain insight into client behaviour?
  • Does your technology allow you to capture user need and offer personalisation of the customer experience?
  • Are you as an organization comfortable with experimentation and learning?
  • Are you using Automation to optimise personal impact?
  • Are you a ‘Collaborative’ organisation where technology is used to span the organisational boundaries that can exist between teams and avoid organisational siloes?
  • Does your technology allow for timely, accurate data and information to support smarter, informed decision making amongst colleagues?
  • Does your technology provide the data and information that your clients want via self-service when they want it, how they want it and in the format they want it?
