The digital transformers dilemma: how to energize your core business while building disruptive products and services Ebook
The Digital Transformer?s Dilemma speaks to companies that need to transform their traditional business model. The book explores how to strike a balance between maintaining profitability in the core business while at the same time establishing the new digital business. This holistic look at the two S-curves (instead of just zeroing in on 2nd S-curve champions and ignoring the core business) is a departure from most of what readers are likely to have come across in the past. We focus on the interaction and establishing a bridge between the core business? S-curve and the new business S-curve, because the 1st S-curve will remain important for the time being. The core part of the book explains how to set up the right infrastructure for digital transformation: flexible organization, technology as an enabler, process set-up, etc. It also explains the crucial soft skills required.
