What is Digital Transformation?

Organizations across all industries are undertaking "Digital Transformation" projects. But, what exactly is it? And, are they doing it right?

At its core, Digital Transformation is driven by the tangible shift in the role of technology within an organization. No longer as purely a support function that enables business processes, technology is now capable of much more. Technology now allows for new, innovative business models (e.g. XaaS), drives sales growth, and can even be a source of Competitive Advantage.

There are numerous emerging technology trends that drive Digital Transformation. Notable ones include Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Artificial Intelligence (namely Machine Learning), Mobile, Internet of Things (IoT), Cybersecurity, Big Data & Analytics, Cloud, Social Media, Blockchain, and so forth. The applicability of technology is largely dependent on the industry and organization.

With these technology trends, businesses are armed with the capability to fully digitize, transform, and grow their organizations. These technologies, in fact, mobilize 8 levers to Digital Transformation—spanning both Growth (business drivers) and Operational Improvement (business enablers).
