​Imagine yourself in the shoes of a CEO. Your enterprise is pulling all stops to catch up with your peers and go the scale and distance on digital. Then, a multi-million dollar proposal for digital transformation lands up on your desk. You pore over the papers, consult your senior pros, brainstorm on it and yet not arrive at a definitive outcome. On how to successfully execute the plan and mine the gains later. Don’t feel disconsolate. You aren’t a lone ranger in this journey of disruption. Gartner estimates that around 50 percent of the CEOs have no metric for digital transformation. In the absence of ample forethought from the top leadership, it doesn’t go afar. According to Forbes, 70 percent of digital transformation projects fail. What does it show? Digital transformation, the buzzword that it is, goes beyond technological underpinnings. It’s as much a cultural transformation where strategy and people-first leadership are needed to make the most from emerging technologies.

Going Digital- The New Staple for Businesses

Organizations had initiated baby steps to digital transformation even before Covid-19. But the pandemic has sped up the timeline to the transformation. The transition that could have spanned three to four years is now happening in months. We are living in an age where the pairing of digital and technology are par for the course. For nimble enterprises, diving into the pool of digital transformation is not just a top priority at boardrooms but a robust toolkit to jump ahead of the curve.

In the next normal, businesses are destined to go digital for survival. As per forecasts by International Data Corporation (IDC), 65 percent of the world’s GDP is set to be digitized by 2022. Moreover, between 2020 and 2023, the world will see direct digital transformation investments of $6.8 trillion. But why do businesses need to go digital? Typically, the adoption of digital happens due to novelty, necessity, or natural affinity. In the same vein, to unlock the full benefits of investments in digital, organizations need to imbibe ‘digital culture’.

Injecting Digital Culture for Transformation

Having a digital culture is all about adapting to new challenges and having a workforce that can do so, and not falling behind. Your existing organizational culture might not be fully compatible with the digital culture that rests on four pillars- collaboration, innovation, data-driven insights and customer-centricity. Digital culture can help companies stay competitive by:-

Achieving an adaptable, tech-enabled workforce able to perform and collaborate from anywhere
Innovation through tech and data-enabled delivery channels and business models
Providing employees with not just the right tools but the right structures, incentives, and mindsets to adopt new technologies
Drive decisions and strategy with accurate and holistic impact data, transform your business through innovation, and engage your stakeholders with integrated initiatives that have a real impact

The digital transformation framework begins with crafting the 'digital strategy' for any enterprise. For organizations to achieve fast impact, it is strongly recommended to embrace the culture of prototyping, testing, learning, and iterating in order to keep cross-functional teams continuously motivated.

Going forward, digital transformation will see more experiments in the crucible of emerging technologies. The XaaS (Everything as a Service) approach is slated to dominate in-house solutions as companies will look to cloud-based, third-party applications and services to do the work for them, rather than upskilling current employees. Digital transformation is an epoch in time-honoured transition. The promises are aplenty but to be successful, organizations need to take measured steps. To cut the long story short, we don’t bite off more than we can chew.
