Wrong turns on the Digital Transformation Journey
8 Common Wrong Turns made in Digital Transformation:
- Mistaking deploying digital technology for having a digital strategy
- Limiting focus of automation initiatives to cost reduction and scale, missing the opportunity to enhance the customer experience
- Assuming digital is about one capability, like RPA, instead of recognizing power of digital mashups to transform an end to end process
- Not engaging key internal stakeholders at all levels of the organization
- Failing to build competency to identify, test and deploy digital assets
- Lacking systematic processes to prioritize opportunities, manage work in progress and track realization of benefits
- Waiting until after bots are in production to start thinking about skills and tools needed to manage the digital workforce
- Jumping to automation “solutions” without understanding the end-to-end process
