Digital Transformation

New opportunities and challenges for CEOs

Digitization can extend the reach of organizations, improve management decisions, and speed the development of new products and services. At the same time, the excessively rapid adoption of technologies can disrupt traditional business models. Organizations need to carefully tread the path towards digital transformation with a concrete strategy to harness its strengths and mitigate its challenges.
 

Our Vision

We believe that digital transformation is first and foremost a business transformation. People, not technology, are the most important piece in the digital transformation puzzle.

Digital transformation has become the ultimate challenge in change management because it impacts not only industry structures and strategic positioning but all levels of an organization (every task, activity, process) and its extended supply chain. Leaders must constantly challenge their organizations to ensure that this technology-enabled change can unlock productivity gains and significant competitive advantage and understand where and how the fundamentals of their current operations could be unsettled by agile new entrants or new business models.

Navigate digital transformation

Drawing on our research with the MIT Center for Digital Business, and our experience working with clients around the world, we have developed a framework to help organizations navigate through their digital transformation:

A foundation in research

Digital technologies have a pervasive influence on all areas of a corporation, from impact on customer experience to enhanced productivity in operations and improvement in the way people collaborate within an organization.

To understand the profound impact of these technological shifts, Capgemini Consulting is partnering with the MIT Center for Digital Business to enhance its approach through a joint research program. This allows us to gain best practice perspectives on the state of digital transformation around the world.

Capgemini Consulting is also working closely with Andy McAfee, George Westerman and Eric Brynjolfsson, leading researchers focused on  the digital economy and digital transformation.
