The Digital Leaders journey
- Companies who wish to join the Digital Leaders Programme must possess digital ambitions that are mapped to a business growth strategy.
- Once on board the Digital Leaders Programme, companies will:
- Build in-house digital capabilities through establishing a digital team and working with tech experts to execute digital ambition and projects
- Develop a digital roadmap to guide strategy and implementation plans to achieve digital transformation goals
- Execute impactful digital projects to create new value propositions and/or build new revenue streams, in line with the company’s digital ambitions
To assist enterprises in their journey to becoming a Digital Leader, we have identified 5 focus areas for successful digital transformation: "Policies & Processes," "Technology," "Employees," "Operations," and "New Market Opportunities." This framework serves as a checklist for enterprises to evaluate their current state from the perspective of these focus areas, enabling them to pinpoint areas for improvement and develop strategies to meet evolving business and market requirements through technology.
To find out more about these focus areas and gain actionable insights, download the Playbook for Enterprise Digital Leaders (6.29MB).
