BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION & CHANGE
You want to rethink the way your business operates, from top to bottom
Service Description
Business transformation (sometimes digital transformation or data-driven transformation) involves using digital technology to change the way a business operates, usually to better align with a desired business strategy. A well executed transformation programme will improve profitability by automating processes, focusing resources on high-impact revenue drivers and reducing unnecessary costs. Typically, data analytics and AI is central to this process because it allows us to 'close the loop' - using data generated by internal business processes to improve those same processes, and using consumer transaction data to improve the customer experience, such as by serving more relevant content. While technology is critical, the most common point of failure in a digital transformation programme is always human. The term change management is sometimes used for this human aspect of the transformation process. I believe they should always be undertaken as a single, integrated transformation & change programme. Poorly placed AI, a cluttered and badly thought through user interface, or biased data analysis will only lead us to the wrong answer faster. While strategic alignment is essential, the successful delivery of a business transformation programme will always start and end with user acceptance, be that frontline staff, senior executive, or customer. If you are looking for a Transformation Programme Lead and would like to understand how I could help you impress your customers, inspire your staff (and delight your shareholders) with your digital transformation programme, please do get in touch using the contact form below.
