In practice, doing digital is perhaps about taking some initiatives for applying the latest technologies or gadgets, but it's a significant shift from doing digital to going digital and being digital. Digitalization efforts need to be undertaken as the means of getting to a set of differentiated business capabilities to accomplish the well-defined goals and improve the overall business performance, responsiveness, and maturity. Here are three management models to evaluate the digital readiness of the business.

Digital organizations are hyperconnected and interdependent and they have to continue to adapt to the digital new normal with “VUCA” characteristics.

The “Future of CIO” Blog has reached 2.5 million page views with about #4800th blog posting in 59+ different categories of leadership, management, strategy, digitalization, change/talent, etc. The content richness is not for its own sake, but to convey the vision and share the wisdom. Blogging is not about writing, but about thinking and innovating the new ideas; it’s not just about WHAT to say, but about WHY to say, and HOW to say it. It reflects the color and shade of your thought patterns, and it indicates the peaks and curves of your thinking waves. Unlike pure entertainment, quality and professional content takes time for digesting, contemplation and engaging, and therefore, it takes time to attract the "hungry minds" and the "deep souls." It’s the journey to amplify diverse voices and deepen digital footprints, and it's the way to harness your innovative spirit.
