Aperçu
A short and clear guide to help traditional organizations succeed at digital transformation.
Recommendation
Traditional brick-and-mortar firms often struggle on their paths to digital transformation. In this brief playbook, the authors outline the paths of dozens of traditional brick-and-mortar firms as they systematically built integrated, enterprise-wide IT infrastructures, followed by digital offerings – guided by customer insights. Not unlike digital natives Amazon and Google, these firms have expanded revenues and even designed platforms that partners can use to write apps or conduct business.
