Digital transformation is necessary if businesses want to stay competitive and innovative. New technology now levels the playing field and gives organizations of all sizes the ability to grow at a pace never previously attainable.
However, digital transformation can also be a very complicated process. It involves the assessment of people, processes, data, applications and more because the introduction of technology affects every area of your business.
The shift can be especially challenging for organizations resistant to change. In this CIO article, Howard Tiersky, CEO and founder of FROM, explains his experience with this:
“Being in the business of helping companies through their digital transformations, I have observed that many of the companies that struggle digitally do employ super-sharp and visionary executives who see what needs to be done. However, those executives face massive challenges when it comes to enacting the kinds of changes that are necessary in order to make that digital leap.”
