The challenge facing organisations today
For many years, we have heard that digital technologies can enable people to work and live in far more flexible and efficient ways​. The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent aftershocks have forced the pace of this realisation.
Organisations are turning to digital technology as the basis for survival, and a return to future prosperity, in unprecedented Pandemic times.
​However, this requires a step-change to the digital transformation approaches of the BC era (Before Coronavirus), which too often included:
- Many years to the promised business benefits;
- Growing IT teams and ‘land and expand’ consulting models;
- Technology complexity consuming many layers of governance and business focus.
​
Smart companies are focusing on what they can do NOW to build their digital business. This requires changes that achieve benefits at pace, underpinned by agile technology development and equally agile business alignment and ownership.
In the past, over 70% of digital change projects have failed due to lack of effective engagement and collaboration across technology and business units.
So how can your organisation get this right, to deliver better digital business for the new normal?
