Download or read book Shift written by Jeremiah Desmarais and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-09 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insurance agents and financial advisors are being taught outdated marketing and sales strategies to grow their businesses. Cold calling, seminars, online leads, networking groups and display ads are showing less returns. At the same time, according to Google, every 5 seconds someone is searching for a financial or insurance product to meet their needs, yet most agents are unaware of how to reach this growing market. Shift is a compilation of exclusive, rarely-before-seen techniques, strategies and best practices used right now to increase sales exponentially using digital marketing. These are not taught in magazines, books or courses today simply because most people won’t share them. Jeremiah has used these concepts to train over 100,000 agents in over 51 countries including the US, Canada, Japan, Switzerland, the Caribbean and South Africa. Using his years of success stories and behind-the-scenes access to the frontlines of what’s working now, Jeremiah has been part of teams that have generated over two million leads in the insurance space, leading to over $300,000,000 in commissions paid out. He has documented the most inspiring, entertaining and duplicatable techniques his teams and front line advisors are using TODAY to SHIFT industry thinking to solve these problems.

Book excerpt: The Digital Shift is changing the world as we know it. The rise of Artificial Intelligence will create new business models, products and services – and ultimately change the way we live our lives. But in order to establish a new global prosperity paradigm, industry must finally start thinking radically from a human perspective. Currently a tool used only by the elite, Artificial Intelligence must become a tool for everyone. It must become personalised and transition to what we call Personal Intelligence. How? Predominantly through the discipline of design. In this fascinating book, Christian von Reventlow and Philipp Thesen have developed a series of radically new human-centric, design-led methods and models that will help corporations adjust to this new personalised technology and the increasingly digitised future.

Download or read book Seismic Digital Shift written by Yong Hu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-18 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an in-depth study on the past, present and future of digitalization, an important contribution to the literature on the development of the digital economy in China. The technological revolution in telecommunications has brought a “seismic shift” - the periphery has moved to the center, accelerating the emergence of a new digital world. The adoption and integration of advanced digital technologies such as 5G mobile networks, the Internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, artificial intelligence, big data analysis and robotics means that the traditional economy, with its organizational, productive and governance systems, is merging with the digital economy, with its innovative features in terms of business models, production, business organization and governance. This makes the digital transformation process highly dynamic and complex, thus challenging many aspects of economies and societies. The author discusses not only what digital transformation means for businesses, but also its impact on society at large, inspiring readers to understand China and the world and think about what digital future we would like to have.

Book excerpt: Our nation’s schools stand at an important “inflection point” in the history of education.

Co-authored by John Bailey, Carri Schneider, and Tom Vander Ark, “Navigating the Digital Shift” offers updated versions of the eight papers originally released in the “DLN Smart Series” including contributions from 11 additional co-authors representing leading organizations such as Public Impact, the International Association for K-12 Online Learning (iNACOL) and The Learning Accelerator. Topics include: blended learning implementation, teaching conditions and careers, competency-based learning, student data, online learning myths, and student-based funding. Jeb Bush, Governor of Florida from 1999-2007 and Chairman of ExcelinEd, contends that the book “provides policymakers and education leaders the tools they need to use digital learning as a catalyst for improved student achievement.” AASA 2013 Superintendent of the Year Dr. Mark Edwards believes the collection “provides meaningful, practical, and poignant advice as well as commentary regarding the move to college and career ready standards associated with the shift to personal online learning and digital resources.” Rhode Island’s Commissioner of Elementary and Secondary Education Deborah Gist describes the book as an “invaluable resource that will help educators re-imagine what our schools can look like and what our students can accomplish.”

Download or read book The Digital Transformation Playbook written by David L. Rogers and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethink your business for the digital age. Every business begun before the Internet now faces the same challenge: How to transform to compete in a digital economy? Globally recognized digital expert David L. Rogers argues that digital transformation is not about updating your technology but about upgrading your strategic thinking. Based on Rogers's decade of research and teaching at Columbia Business School, and his consulting for businesses around the world, The Digital Transformation Playbook shows how pre-digital-era companies can reinvigorate their game plans and capture the new opportunities of the digital world. Rogers shows why traditional businesses need to rethink their underlying assumptions in five domains of strategy—customers, competition, data, innovation, and value. He reveals how to harness customer networks, platforms, big data, rapid experimentation, and disruptive business models—and how to integrate these into your existing business and organization. Rogers illustrates every strategy in this playbook with real-world case studies, from Google to GE, from Airbnb to the New York Times. With practical frameworks and nine step-by-step planning tools, he distills the lessons of today's greatest digital innovators and makes them usable for businesses at any stage. Many books offer advice for digital start-ups, but The Digital Transformation Playbook is the first complete treatment of how legacy businesses can transform to thrive in the digital age. It is an indispensable guide for executives looking to take their firms to the next stage of profitable growth.

Download or read book Digital Transformation written by Lindsay Herbert and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-19 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One book for the entire journey: How to digitally transform your organization Innovation in the face of major external change is critical for any organization's success, but attempting to do so often leads to more questions than actions: Where do you start? How do you get the right resources? How should work be implemented? What data should you measure? For the first time, these questions are answered in a single book that covers the end-to-end execution of digital transformation – from leadership-level strategy, to on-the-ground team implementation. With the biggest revelation of all, Herbert argues, being that true digital transformation only needs to happen once because, at its core, it means becoming more adaptive to change itself. Featuring the 'how to' of digital transformation devised from successes across every sector, Herbert distils it into five actionable stages. These stages act as a repeatable framework for continual innovation, allowing you to produce results immediately and grow change incrementally across your organization. In Digital Transformation, Herbert draws on her own experiences in leading change and innovation programmes globally, as well as featuring insights from experts and leaders from organizations as diverse as the World Wildlife Fund, Morgan Stanley, Royal Caribbean Cruises, the United Nations High Commission for Refugees, the Rijksmuseum, the American Cancer Society, The Guardian, Harvard University, and many others.

Download or read book Beyond Digital written by Paul Leinwand and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two world-renowned strategists detail the seven leadership imperatives for transforming companies in the new digital era. Digital transformation is critical. But winning in today's world requires more than digitization. It requires understanding that the nature of competitive advantage has shifted—and that being digital is not enough. In Beyond Digital, Paul Leinwand and Matt Mani from Strategy&, PwC's global strategy consulting business, take readers inside twelve companies and how they have navigated through this monumental shift: from Philips's reinvention from a broad conglomerate to a focused health technology player, to Cleveland Clinic's engagement with its broader ecosystem to improve and expand its leading patient care to more locations around the world, to Microsoft's overhaul of its global commercial business to drive customer outcomes. Other case studies include Adobe, Citigroup, Eli Lilly, Hitachi, Honeywell, Inditex, Komatsu, STC Pay, and Titan. Building on a major new body of research, the authors identify the seven imperatives that leaders must follow as the digital age continues to evolve: Reimagine your company's place in the world Embrace and create value via ecosystems Build a system of privileged insights with your customers Make your organization outcome-oriented Invert the focus of your leadership team Reinvent the social contract with your people Disrupt your own leadership approach Together, these seven imperatives comprise a playbook for how leaders can define a bolder purpose and transform their organizations.

Download or read book Adopting and Adapting Innovation in Japan s Digital Transformation written by Anshuman Khare and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-23 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the business transformation taking place in Japan is influenced by the digital revolution. The chapters present approaches and examples from sectors commonly understood to be visible arenas of digital transformation—3D printing and mobility, for instance—as well as some from not-so-obvious sectors, such as retail, services, and fintech. Business today is facing unprecedented change especially due to the adoption of new, digital technologies, with a noticeable transformation of manufacturing and services. The changes have been brought by advanced robotics, the emergence of artificial intelligence, and digital networks that are growing in size and capability as the number of connected devices explodes. In addition, there are advanced manufacturing and collaborative connected platforms, including machine-to-machine communications. Adoption of digital technology has caused process disruptions in both the manufacturing and services sectors and led to new business models and new products. While examining the preparedness of the Japanese economy to embrace these changes, the book explores the impact of digitally influenced changes on some selected sectors from a Japanese perspective. It paints a big picture in explaining how a previously manufacturing-centric, successful economy adopts change to retain and rebuild success in the global environment. Japan as a whole is embracing, yet also avoiding—innovating but also restricting—various forms of digitalization of life and work. The book, with its 12 chapters, is a collaborative effort of individuals contributing diverse points of view as technologists, academics, and managers.

While companies have been integrating the challenges of such a transformation for more than 20 years, the public sector is lagging behind. Digital Transformation and Public Policies studies the mechanisms of the digital transformation of public organizations. It explores how this new deal, driven mainly by platforms, resonates with new public policies and how digital technology is redrawing the relationship between the governors and the governed. This book, the result of transdisciplinary collaboration between researchers, aims to answer these questions by focusing on several cases: public innovation policies, health data and social policies with fiscal microsimulation devices.

This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when cultural policy turns digital? Digital Transformation and Cultural Policies in Europe analyzes and compares different digital cultural policies of Europe. Through case studies of seven European countries (UK, Germany, Croatia, Sweden, Spain, Norway, and Switzerland) as well as the analysis of EU digital cultural policy, the book investigates what happens when cultural policy gets changed and challenged by digital culture. Based on a thorough discussion of key concepts and analytical perspectives, this collection also offers a unique multi-disciplinary contribution that shows how digital cultural policy is hyperconvergent.

Overall, this book provides a valuable tool for understanding the current policy framework of digital culture. It will be of interest not only to scholars and students in cultural and creative industries but also to creative professionals and policy makers.

This book was released on 2024-06-01 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the impact of digital transformation (DT) on economic growth in India during the post-pandemic era. The research objectives involved examining the relationship between DT and economic growth, assessing the current level of digital transformation across sectors, identifying key drivers and barriers, exploring the impact on productivity and innovation, and examining the role of DT in enhancing the competitiveness of Indian businesses. Hypotheses were formulated to test positive relationships between DT and economic growth, increased productivity, fostering innovation, and enhancing competitiveness. The research adopted a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative analysis and qualitative insights through surveys and interviews with business leaders, industry experts, and policymakers. The sample consisted of 21 businesses in India, selected using stratified random sampling across different sectors, ensuring a representative and diverse sample for meaningful analysis and generalizability of findings. Quantitative data were analysed using statistical techniques, including regression analysis and descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were analysed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed significant relationships between DT readiness, employee engagement, budget allocation, awareness, integration of digital tools, and anticipated impacts on competitiveness. The study concluded that factors such as employee engagement, budget allocation, awareness, and effective integration of digital tools play a pivotal role in achieving heightened readiness for digital transformation, enabling companies to enhance competitiveness and realize the anticipated benefits of successful digital initiatives. The research sample consistes of 21 businesses in India, selected using stratified random sampling. The businesses are distributed across different sectors, including Manufacturing, with a population size of 500. This technique ensures a representative and diverse sample, allowing for meaningful analysis and generalizability of findings. The analysis of the data revealed several significant conclusions regarding digital transformation readiness and its impact on organizational factors. Firstly, a positive relationship was observed between digital transformation readiness and the anticipated impact on competitiveness, indicating that companies with higher readiness were more likely to expect positive competitive outcomes. Secondly, there was a noteworthy negative correlation between employee resistance and digital transformation readiness, suggesting that companies with lower levels of employee resistance tended to exhibit higher readiness for digital transformation. Additionally, a positive association was found between budget allocation and digital transformation readiness, indicating that companies dedicating a larger budget to digital transformation initiatives were more likely to demonstrate higher readiness in adopting digital technologies. Moreover, a positive correlation was identified between awareness and understanding of digital transformation and readiness, showcasing that companies with a deeper comprehension of digital technologies tended to have higher readiness. Furthermore, a positive relationship existed between digital transformation readiness and the actual adoption of digital technologies, emphasizing that companies with elevated readiness were more inclined to integrate digital technologies into their operations effectively. Lastly, the integration of digital tools was positively associated with digital transformation readiness, with companies proficiently incorporating digital tools demonstrating higher readiness. These findings underscored the pivotal role of factors such as employee engagement, budget allocation, awareness, and the effective integration of digital tools in achieving heightened readiness for digital transformation, enabling companies to enhance competitiveness and realize the anticipated benefits of successful digital initiatives.
