Unique

Competitive uniqueness makes you shine even on a raining day. It provides the opportunity to think of new ways to do things; it helps the business to differentiate itself from competitors.

"Digital Master” is a series of guidebooks (28 + books) to perceive the multi-faceted impact digital is making to the businesses and society, help forward-thinking organizations navigate through the journey in a systematic way, and avoid “rogue digital.” 

It perceives the emergent trends of digital leadership, provides advice on how to run a digital organization to unleash its full potential and improve agility, maturity, and provide insight about Change Management. It also instructs the digital workforce on how to shape a game-changing digital mindset and build the right set of digital capabilities to compete for the future. Here is a set of “Unique” (iii) quotes in “Digital Master.”

To discover unimaginable uniqueness of people, you need to look at all aspects of their individual traits, work ethic, influence, creativity, experience, capability, achievements and performance, as well as the hidden potential.

To identify potential and create an authentic organizational culture to encourage employees’ growth, business leaders and talent managers need to pay more attention to those shining spots: Who can bring unique POVs, etc.

Competitive uniqueness allows the business to “dream bigger,” and achieve the art of possible - it involves new ways of bringing together ideas and resources to create something novel, figure out “the best or most innovative solution" for the business' requirement, offering added value and feature insights based on system understanding.

Competitive uniqueness makes you shine even on a raining day. It provides the opportunity to think of new ways to do things; it helps the business to differentiate itself from competitors.

The differentiation provided by unique capabilities usually is more long-lived than differentiation provided by marketing actions that can be copied easier. Hence, a clear understanding of what capabilities, services or solutions are supporting your competitive advantage is needed in order to build unique competency.

The competitive necessity and competitive uniqueness are both important, the maturity of a business capability would be based on its ability to deliver on either customer needs or to achieve the desired capability outcome, but also importantly, to build the differentiated brand and the long-term business competency.

IT staff’s collective competitive necessity will keep the business light on, while their collective uniqueness can help grow and even transform the organization. Thus, advocate the culture for talent to compete for uniqueness.
