In our fast-paced tech world, it’s easy to get swept up in the whirlwind of constant change. It’s important to keep in mind that learning is key to staying ahead of the curve.
Our Practice Director Julian Brown explores the fundamental building blocks for digital transformation, from inclusivity to strategic planning.
Technology is at the forefront of our ever-changing modern world; however, it can be hard to keep track of the changes. We go from one upgrade to another within the blink of an eye, this is daunting, particularly in the midst of the use and growth of AI.
It is essential to remember that everyone has to learn from somewhere or somebody, the success of any transformation is down to the willingness to learn.
Here are some basic factors to consider in order for digital transformation on any platform to succeed
As we move from one new technological advance to another, it’s crucial to be inclusive. People of all ages, countries and wealth status need to be able to understand what those changes are, what they mean to them and how it will benefit their lives.
Some people can feel like an outsiders, left behind while the rest of the world moves on. Those with the knowledge to teach others who feel this way are essential to meet the increasing demands of technological change.
For businesses, understanding the value of certain changes on their part needs to be established; what are the strengths and weaknesses? Who will be benefiting from the change? Why is it so crucial to the core values of the organisation?
People are just as vital as technology.
Long Term Strategy
An agreed long-term strategy is essential, one that embraces upgrades and maintains an up-to-date idea of trends in technology. This is typical of any business or organisation looking to implement change of any kind, whether that’s moving on from one project to another, or accepting that some software and hardware systems may need an update. Collaboration is key to successful change.
By engaging with those with the skills to carry out updates we share our vision. Combining initiative with the capabilities and skills within a team supports progress.
Once these building blocks are in place a strong and prosperous plan for digital transformation is in place. Businesses evolve with the rest of the world. Globalisation shrinks the distance between accessibility and collaboration with others, speeding up year by year, upgrade by upgrade.
Broadening horizons and learning from shared experience means there is no reason to be threatened by inevitable change.
