Going Digital - How a new Operation Model can Power transformation

GOING DIGITAL In the digital world, transformation is the only constant From rapid growth start-ups to established global corporates, there’s one challenge that all businesses face: keeping up with the sheer speed of technological change. In ten years’ time, many of the ways we work and consume services will be unrecognizable to what we know today. Business models are being torn up. Bold new competitors are taking the market by storm. And everything we thought we knew about how technology powers business is shifting. That means ‘digital transformation’ isn’t just an industry buzzword – it’s an essential process for any organization that hopes to thrive in the new world. We live in a time of boundless opportunity – but also of phenomenal risk. Businesses (and their IT departments) need to be agile and alert to challenges as they emerge. Unfortunately, siloed ways of working and outdated business practices are pervasive, meaning the full benefits of technology are lost. And even those with clear digital aspirations can’t fully realize them – because they’re restrained by an old-fashioned IT operating model. Who is New Signature?
