The Monthly “Digital Maturity” Book Tuning: Make Accomplishment and Build Digital Competency Apr. 2020

Digital transformation is a long journey, and the path for digital transformation can be iterative, evolutionary, revolutionary, or disruptive. 

Digital makes a significant impact on every aspect of the business from people, processes to technology, both horizontally and vertically. The digitalization flattens the organizational hierarchy and blurs the functional, organizational and geographical borders in the business ecosystem.

It is like a gigantic puzzle with many misplaced pieces, you have to put them all in the right places to discover the real meaning and unleash its full potential. You cannot make a true digital paradigm shift without an in-depth understanding of the digital interconnectivity and embracing the multitude of digital maturity.



   Make Accomplishment and Build Digital Competency 


Three Accomplishments Imply You are Perhaps at “the End of the Beginning” for IT-Led Digital Transformation  Digital transformation is a long journey, and the path for digital transformation can be iterative, evolutionary, revolutionary, or disruptive. Information Technology is often the driving force behind digital transformation as IT continues to grow in importance to organizational growth and as a competitive advantage. IT-driven digital transformation inspires growth mindset, catalyzes innovation, and unleashes organizational potential. It’s a long journey, here are three accomplishments that imply that you are perhaps at the “end of the beginning” for digital transformation, and reach the inflection point to accelerate transformative changes.

As a Leader: Are You Optimistic or Pessimistic about your Strategy Accomplishment According to an industry survey, most executives don’t think their company’s strategy will lead to success, and the interesting point is that the management is complaining about themselves. So as a leader, are you optimistic about your strategy progress, or pessimistic about its final result?

Goals vs. Objectives: Can you Guarantee Achievement of them? The term OBJECTIVE really starts out in the publication of "The Practice of Management" by Peter Drucker. He defines the term ‘objective as the larger 'endpoint'. He further defines OBJECTIVES as being achieved through a sub-collection of 'supporting goals' - the children of the parent objective; and then the story further illustrates that 'objectives' are 'owned' by the 'institution 'the team' and the corporation, the organization. Goals are owned by individuals as personal contributions to the 'collective achievement' of the Objectives.

Digital IT Sense of Achievement The majority of IT organizations today are often overloaded and understaffed, running as a support center, being stuck at the lower level of maturity, and not getting fully respected by business peers. In most cases, the IT department isn't producing anything that is saleable and, therefore, many in the organization will view IT as something that seems to ceaselessly suck up money with very little return on investment. Digital CIOs as top business leaders, how to renovate the tarnished IT image and manage IT with a sense of achievement?

The Digital Transformation Success Formula The organization or company may be in business for many years but has not matured its management disciplines and structural flexibility. The digital transformation is now spreading rapidly to enable organizations of all shapes and sizes to reinvent themselves and make the digital paradigm shift. The purpose of such radical change is to make a significant difference in improving organizational efficiency, effectiveness, responsiveness, performance, and maturity. Forward-looking organizations are reaching the inflection point from doing digital to being digital. Digital transformation represents a break with the past, having a high level of impact and complexity. Can businesses across sectors figure out their success formulas to make a seamless digital transformation?

The “Future of CIO” Blog has reached 3 million page views with about #6600th blog posting in 59+ different categories of leadership, management, strategy, digitalization, change/talent, etc. The “Digital Master” book series includes 28 books to share insight from the multidimensional digital lens and perceive the multi-faceted impact the digital era upon us is making to businesses and society. 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 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.
