Digitally Transforming Your Business

The older we get, the more routine and set in our ways we become. Sometimes, the same can be said about how businesses are conducted; it’s easy to get used to being comfortable doing things a certain way (especially over a long period of time).

The key to having a business that is constantly evolving and growing is to embrace positive change, especially when it comes to utilizing technological advancements across the digital landscape. Here are some important considerations to make for the betterment of your organization:

‘Be Proactive, Not Reactive
According to Red Hat, most organizations are engaging in digital transformation in reaction to moves made by competitors. The problem with this approach is it tailors the decision-making process toward the business environment the enterprise is leaving, not the one it is entering. Already, cloud-native startups are building entirely new business models around agile development, mesh cloud computing and containerized infrastructure, so the challenge to legacy enterprises is not to leverage transformation to shore up existing capabilities, but to devise new services and new markets that are uniquely suited to its talents.

Results, Not Technology or Processes
In the old days, new technology replaced aging systems and new processes were devised to take advantage of the expanded data footprint. Nowadays, infrastructure can be had in unlimited quantities with just a few mouse clicks, so processes can be designed to suit virtually any need. This gives the enterprise the ability to reverse-engineer the normal development process by focusing on the desired outcome and then working backward from there.’ (Arthur Cole, techopedia.com)
