Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides specialists and executives with a clear, yet practical set of recommendations to meet the challenges of digital transformation and ensure long-term success as a leader in a primarily digital business world. The authors describe the fundamental principles of digitization and its economic opportunities and risks, integrating them into a framework of classic and new management methods. The book also explores how increasing digitization – not only of communication, but of complete value chains – has led to a need to establish a digital business leadership. Digitization is changing people and markets: it causes the upheaval of entire industries, creates new digital-centric companies, and forces established companies to cope with the transformation activities associated with these digitization processes. New approaches and methods have to be learned, tried and tested patterns of thinking have to be explored, and last but not least, innovation activities have to be understood as continuous necessities. At the same time, digital business offers considerable opportunities for renewing competitive advantages, improving existing process structures and realigning products, services and business models.

Book Successful Digital Transformation

Download or read book Successful Digital Transformation written by Marc Beijen and published by Van Haren. This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is, as indicated by the subtitle, intended in the first place for executives and managers. But actually its is essential reading for all who are faced with digital transformation. It offers a valuable reflection on knowledge developed and experience accumulated in daily practice, focusing on the approach to contemporary digital business challenges. Written in understandable language and with a powerful, logical structure, it has become a very accessible book that remains fascinating from beginning to end. It teaches you to understand topics that matter such as the need for digital transformation, the connection with business strategy and the essential differences in starting positions between organizations. What to do next is made concrete and practical by identifying five necessary digital breakthroughs and working them out into clear goals, which should be included in the change cycle as part of your digital strategy. The phase model presented includes three distinct steps - from product focus in the first phase to customer orientation in the second phase, followed by a third phase in which the customer is at the center. The book describes what is required to take these steps - the checklist that is included provides organizations with direction. This helps in setting up a strategy and developing an effective roadmap for organizations to transform. “The book 'Successful Digital Transformation' reads like a modern fairy tale. It's clever how the essence of the field of digital transformation is captured in barely 100 pages. But the theme has also been made very practical, the underlying topics (such as data management, enterprise architecture, change management) have been tied together and explained in a comprehensible way. I think the book fills a great need, because many books and articles on this topic are either full of buzzwords that are not further described, or lapse into academic jargon that is incomprehensible to the average reader. This book sits nicely between academia and practice, without falling into compromises.” – Frank Harmsen - Associate Professor of Digital Transformation, Maastricht University

Book Business Model Innovation

Download or read book Business Model Innovation written by Constantinos Markides and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technologies have allowed for the proliferation of new business models, something that has attracted the attention of academic research. Much of this research has focused on (i) understanding what a business model is and its theoretical connection to the concept of strategy, and (ii) exploring what business model innovation is and what its sources and outcomes are. Less work has gone into studying the issues that established firms face in business model innovation – such as how to respond to the arrival of a disruptive business model in one's industry, or how to compete with dual business models or how to migrate from one business model to another. This Element approaches the topic of business model innovation from the perspective of the established firm and examines the unique strategic and organizational issues that big, established companies face when a new business model enters their markets.

Book Shaping the Digital Enterprise

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sheds light on cross-industry and industry-specific trends in today’s digital economy. Prepared by a group of international researchers, experts and practitioners under the auspices of SAP’s Digital Thought Leadership & Enablement team within SAP’s Business Transformation Services (BTS) unit, the book furthermore presents relevant use cases in digital transformation and innovation. The book argues that breakthrough technologies have matured and hit scale together, enabling five defining trends: hyper-connectivity, supercomputing, cloud computing, a smarter world, and cyber security. It presents in detail how companies are now reimagining their products and services, business models and processes, showcasing how every business today is a digital business. Digitalization, defined as the process of moving to a digital business, is no longer a choice but an imperative for all businesses across all industries and regions. Taking a step toward becoming a digital enterprise is demanding and challenging. The dimensions of customer centricity, leadership and strategy, business models, including offerings (products and services), processes, structure and governance, people and skills, culture, and technology foundation can serve as orientation for digitalization. The articles in this book touch on all dimensions of this digital innovation and transformation framework and offer possible answers to some of the pressing questions that arise when practitioners seek to digitalize their business.

Book Facilitating SMEs in Adapting and Adopting to the Digital Future

Download or read book Facilitating SMEs in Adapting and Adopting to the Digital Future written by Maximilian Wilde and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the topic of Industrie 4.0 gained more and more media coverage, popularity and importance. Figure 1 illustrates a trend analysis of Industrie 4.0 and the digital transformation over the past five years, representing the increase of interest in the topic. The concept of Industrie 4.0 was developed in the frame of the High-Tech Strategy of the Federal Government of Germany. Up to now, it is more of a vision of the digital transformation of the economy and the society. The research project mainly focuses on small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), as they bear great potentials and small changes already have great impacts. Additionally, the majority of the scientific research mainly focuses on large enterprises and SMEs are left out. A better understanding of the concept has been developed by having a deeper look into a variety of reports and research projects with regard to Industrie 4.0, its origin and the previous revolutions. Furthermore, the main technical concepts, which are observed as the major enablers for Industrie 4.0 are introduced. It could be identified, that most of the relevant technologies are already known for several decades, however there is a new way of application and combination of the different technologies. In addition, the further developments of the technologies and the framework enabled a broader and more efficient use. Furthermore, ten interviews with a variety of representatives from the industry, interest representatives and academia have been held. This helped, to develop a good insight of their position, understanding and attitude towards the digital transformation. Within the interviews, a variety of challenges and obstacles but also opportunities and potentials could be identified. The challenges are subdivided into external challenges like a required comprehensive legal framework, which can hardly be addressed and changed by the SMEs themselves and internal challenges like a lack of knowhow, which can be addressed and changed by the SMEs. Additionally, several twofold challenges were identified like data and IT security and safety related concerns, which can only be addressed in parts by SMEs. However most of the challenges, when addressed properly, can be turned around into an opportunity. Additionally, a variety of opportunities like the current good economic situation as a driver for innovation, were identified. Next to the challenges and opportunities, the digital transformation also implies a firm assessment of the business model in terms of its potential continuity in the future and change management within SMEs. Most of the identified inhibitors can already be avoided by a certain openness towards change and the willingness, to implement a new digital strategy. It is important to dedicate time to such a project and not to lose focus. Furthermore, there should be tidy and well documented processes since an automation of chaos would not generate any benefits. A recommendation in terms of a consulting model was developed stating several preconditions, which need to be met, to successfully implement an Industrie 4.0 project. It is important to bear the experience of a SME in mind, when approaching them with a project. If they have never heard of the topic in relation with their business, becoming too technical or too advanced, only causes confusion. Thus, a general introduction is required. Developing a digital roadmap in iterative steps with clearly defined and reachable targets is a major enabler for success. Furthermore, it is important to have a digital strategy and prepare the business model for the digital transformation. Considering all the above, it could be identified, that SMEs have good chances and great potentials in the implementation of future technologies, if they have the willingness towards change.
