CHALLENGES

The new normal is change. Some companies are finding the accelerated pace of technology change overwhelming, leading them into a state of digital culture shock. The winners not only embrace change, they thrive on it. They instigate it. They are constantly equipping employees, partners and consumers with new technology capabilities that are allowing them to have an unmatched ability to create fresh ideas, develop cutting-edge products and services, and disrupt the status quo.

To meet these challenges, keeping up with changing technology is vital. Winners in the digital age do much more than complete a technology checklist. They know their success hinges on people. Understanding changing customer needs and behaviors is, of course, hugely important. But the real deciding factor in the digital era will be the ability to evolve corporate culture. That means not simply taking advantage of emerging technologies but, critically, embracing the new business strategies that those technologies drive.

You can’t solve this challenge just by consuming more and more technology. Nor, as some fear, by replacing humans with machines. Instead, enterprises must focus on enabling people – consumers, employees and ecosystem partners – to do more with technology.

Software is now a basis for differentiation and innovation. It’s a channel to new services and revenue streams, seamless customer experiences and expansion into new markets. More than ever, your software strategy is your business strategy. The ability to roll out business capabilities continuously will be the difference between companies that stagnate and ones that evolve.

Are you ready for the high-velocity, software-driven world?

New technologies are accelerating the pace of business. But existing IT strategies lag behind. Companies need to fundamentally redefine the business of applications.

In an age where tech is grabbing the limelight, true leaders will, in fact, put people first.
