What is Digital transformation?

Digital transformation is a complex and multifaceted process that varies from one company to another. At its core, digital transformation involves the integration of digital technology into all areas of a business, leading to fundamental changes in how the company operates and delivers value to customers. It requires a cultural change that encourages organizations to continually challenge the status quo, experiment often, and embrace failure. Leaders must articulate what digital transformation means for their organization, and avoid using the loaded term “digital” without unpacking what it means. Instead, they should focus on specific goals, problems, or opportunities that drive the transformation, while keeping in mind that leadership and culture are at the heart of successful digital transformation.
Digital transformation has become a survival issue for businesses in the wake of the pandemic. The ability to adapt quickly to supply chain disruptions, time to market pressures, and rapidly changing customer expectations has become critical. Consumer behavior has quickly shifted, and it is still unclear which changes will stick long-term. However, the accelerated shift towards streaming, online fitness, home cooking, and online grocery shopping is likely to stay permanently. Cashless transactions and remote selling are also gaining momentum. For CIOs, rapid experimentation is no longer optional. Improving customer experience has become a crucial goal and a crucial part of digital transformation, as seamless customer experience is the most important discriminating factor for how a business will perform.
The COVID-19 crisis has significantly impacted the digital transformation agendas of companies, causing a shift in both the “what” and “how” of these efforts. Employee experience, which was previously viewed with skepticism by some IT circles, has now become a critical focus area, given that a significant portion of the workforce is now remote. Other areas that have seen increased attention from CIOs include customer support through chatbots, automation tools for resilience, and a cleanup of redundant or conflicting systems. The pandemic has also forced organizations to prioritize functionality over perfection, emphasizing the importance of “working software” as opposed to the best possible bells and whistles.

While every organization’s digital transformation journey will be unique based on their specific challenges and needs, there are certain constants and commonalities that business and technology leaders should take into account as they initiate their digital transformation efforts.

Some of the most frequently cited elements of digital transformation include:

  • Enhancing customer experience
  • Establishing operational agility
  • Fostering a culture of innovation and leadership
  • Enabling and empowering the workforce
  • Integrating digital technology

Although different guides may have their own distinct recommendations and approaches, CIOs should focus on these essential shared themes when designing their own digital transformation strategy.

The role of IT in business has shifted from a cost-saving function to a revenue-generating function. IT has become the primary driver of business innovation, and this shift requires everyone in the organization to rethink the role and impact of IT in their daily experience. CEOs are increasingly looking to their CIOs to help generate revenue for the organization, rather than focusing on cost savings.

IT leaders must embrace this shift and adopt a new mindset that focuses on building and creating new capabilities that didn’t exist before. They must work in cross-functional teams more than ever and lead with empathy to build trust and motivate the organization to understand why digital transformation is necessary. IT leaders must recognize that digital transformation is a people issue, and the work of implementing and adapting to massive changes falls to everyone.

To ensure success, organizations must engage with three groups of employees who tend to slow transformation momentum: old-timers, by-the-book players, and lone wolves. These groups must not be ignored but engaged to avoid perilous stalls. Companies should consider different sub-populations within their organization and craft messaging, programs, and environments to hit the right starting point and realistic end point for different groups.

In summary, the success of digital transformation depends on a shift in mindset, effective leadership, and engagement with different sub-populations within the organization. Companies that recognize this and invest in building the necessary capabilities and skills will be better positioned to compete and succeed in today’s digital economy.

Digital transformation is not just about adopting new technology but also about shedding outdated processes and legacy technology to enable innovation. The cloud model has the potential to transform government IT beyond cost-cutting to using the cloud for strategic advantage. However, legacy technology still poses a significant challenge to CIOs’ ability to embark on a successful digital transformation strategy. Legacy systems not only become a costly barrier to transformation but also lack flexibility and carry a significant technology debt. This liability prevents many organizations from advancing and supporting analytics, real-time transactions, and a digital experience. Therefore, businesses must work to increase efficiency with technology wherever possible, adopt agile principles, and leverage automation technologies to gain speed and reduce technical debt. By doing so, they can evolve with the rapid pace of digital change today and remain competitive in the future.

Measuring the return on investment (ROI) of digital transformation projects is crucial to proving their success and securing continued investment. However, quantifying ROI can be challenging for projects that cross functional and business boundaries and fundamentally reshape interactions with customers and employees. Micro-metrics for agile experiments should be developed to learn and adjust as the project progresses. Business outcomes, such as revenue growth, lifetime customer value, time to market, productivity improvements, scale, operational efficiencies, and cost impact should be incorporated to assess strategic and operational impacts. By taking these best practices into account, digital transformation leaders can better monitor key performance indicators and prove the value of their efforts.
