Digital transformation is the topic of the day and it’s here to stay…it’s a phenomenon that is actively fueling both the success and the failure of every organization. Industry after industry is being transformed as we speak and this is perhaps more so than ever in our history where technology is not just adding capability but it’s changing business models.
Almost every company is grappling with how to embrace new trends such as Big Data driving the digitization of “things” and advances in data analytics and intelligence, cloud computing placing limitless computing and storage power into the hands of organizations of all sizes, and of course the explosion and ubiquity of mobile computing.
