Download or read book Designed for Digital written by Jeanne W. Ross and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Forbes's Top Ten Technology Books of the Year How to redesign ‘big, old’ companies for digital success—featuring a survey of 300+ business leaders and 30+ global organizations, including Amazon, Uber, LEGO, Toyota North America, Philips, and USAA. Most established companies have deployed such digital technologies as the cloud, mobile apps, the internet of things, and artificial intelligence. But few established companies are designed for digital. This book offers an essential guide for retooling organizations for digital success through 5 key building blocks: • Shared Customer Insights • Operational Backbone • Digital Platform • Accountability Framework • External Developer Platform In the digital economy, rapid pace of change in technology capabilities and customer desires means that business strategy must be fluid. As a result, business design has become a critical management responsibility. Effective business design enables a company to quickly pivot in response to new competitive threats and opportunities. Most leaders today, however, rely on organizational structure to implement strategy, unaware that structure inhibits, rather than enables, agility. In companies that are designed for digital, people, processes, data, and technology are synchronized to identify and deliver innovative customer solutions—and redefine strategy. Digital design, not strategy, is what separates winners from losers in the digital economy. Designed for Digital offers practical advice on digital transformation, with examples that include Amazon, BNY Mellon, DBS Bank, LEGO, Philips, Schneider Electric, USAA, and many other global organizations. Drawing on 5 years of research and in-depth case studies, the book is an essential guide for companies that want to disrupt rather than be disrupted in the new digital landscape.

Download or read book Industry Trends in Cloud Computing written by David Dempsey and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the Cloud Computing (CC) commercial landscape as it matures; this book asserts that the key ingredient in sustaining the Software as a Service (SaaS) business model is subscription renewal. Chronicling the evolution and future trajectory of the CC concept, the authors examine the new paradigm it is creating for the distribution of computer software applications among business-to-business (B2B) clients. CC enabled SaaS has been fundamentally changing the revenue expectations and business model for the application software industry, and impacting on how SaaS providers pursue, acquire and retain B2B clients. Securing SaaS subscription renewal is critical to the survival and prosperity of this business as attrition can have a significant impact on the financial viability of SaaS businesses based on this model. Focusing on the B2B client and the SaaS industry dependency on renewal subscriptions delivered through the CC channel, the primary research presented in this book seeks to examine the key drivers behind the B2B SaaS subscription renewal decision and, in doing so, to explore the recurring revenue framework for the Cloud SaaS business.

Download or read book What s Your Digital Business Model written by Peter Weill and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital transformation is not about technology--it's about change. In the rapidly changing digital economy, you can't succeed by merely tweaking management practices that led to past success. And yet, while many leaders and managers recognize the threat from digital--and the potential opportunity--they lack a common language and compelling framework to help them assess it and guide them in responding. They don't know how to think about their digital business model. In this concise, practical book, MIT digital research leaders Peter Weill and Stephanie Woerner provide a powerful yet straightforward framework that has been field-tested globally with dozens of senior management teams. Based on years of study at the MIT Center for Information Systems Research (CISR), the authors find that digitization is moving companies' business models on two dimensions: from value chains to digital ecosystems, and from a fuzzy understanding of the needs of end customers to a sharper one. Looking at these dimensions in combination results in four distinct business models, each with different capabilities. The book then sets out six driving questions, in separate chapters, that help managers and executives clarify where they are currently in an increasingly digital business landscape and highlight what's needed to move toward a higher-value digital business model. Filled with straightforward self-assessments, motivating examples, and sharp financial analyses of where profits are made, this smart book will help you tackle the threats, leverage the opportunities, and create winning digital strategies.

Furthermore, the findings were embedded in a conceptual model. In doing so, this paper contributes to the further development of previous research on the digital transformation of companies and places the development of DBS in its context.

Download or read book Digital Roadmap written by Rahul Bansode and published by Rahul Bansode. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone understands the "WHY" of Digital Transformation, but "HOW" to do it is challenging. Any organization that is thinking of adopting Digital Transformation means their business model is already disrupted. Digital Transformation is the process of shifting the organization from a legacy approach to a new way of doing business. To be competitive and be relevant in the digital age the incumbents need to continuously adapt to the changed business model and customer expectations. Being a digital organization is no more optional but an obligation to remain relevant in the business and to their customer. Digital Roadmap illustrates the journey for the incumbents to understand the digital landscape, consider the digital ecosystem as an opportunity, and define their digital milestones to achieve their transformation. The author, Rahul Bansode is a Digital Transformation Strategist and has worked on multiple transformation initiatives for building new digital products, services, and delivery channels. His first-hand experience in understanding the digital ecosystem and technology expertise has helped envision a new business model using the First Principle Design Thinking approach. In his experience, there cannot be a general framework adopted to transform the legacy business model to the digital era. Each organization is distinct and possesses unique challenges to overcome the transformation goal. Digital Roadmap evades providing a stapled business transformation framework but instead shares a glimpse of the challenges, new digital technology evolutions, and also explains who should be leading the digital transformation initiative. The focus is to explain the challenges with simplistic real-life examples, understand the importance of employee buy-in, market cannibalization, and in turn induce the culture of innovations. This book will provide the guideline for incumbents to build their digital transformation journey.
