It’s Not the Technology –
It’s the Timing

How Will the Pace of Technology Substitution Impact Your Organization?

The pace of substitution is determined by how quickly the new technologies ecosystem challenges are resolved & whether the old technology can exploit ecosystems opportunities for extensions. The speed and quality of your digital transformation initiatives directly impact your ability to push up the S Curve of Business.

Are These Challenges Keeping You Up At Night?

In our research, combined with that of Harvard Business Review research, there are six things that the C-Suite and Executive Leadership worry about more than anything else. Surprisingly it’s not technology, but rather the following:

Talent Management

Talent needs shift dramatically during periods of digital transformation. It’s a challenge to know who to hire, how many people to bring on board, and where to find a skilled workforce to meet your changing needs. Finding the right team members in a shrinking talent pool requires strategic efforts.

Operational Efficiencies

The lightning-speed pace at which the world is accelerating has created a distinct need for organizations to operate more efficiently or risk falling behind. Although there’s a wealth of new technology available to improve operational efficiencies, you need to know what, specifically, will help you reach your end goals.

Market Share & Relevance

As new ecosystems emerge, so does the need for new technology — not only for your organization but also for your consumers. As the playing field levels out and disruptors storm the grassy plain, will your organization stay relevant in the marketplace? Or will you see your market share diminish to new contenders?

Regulation & Legislation

When regulations and laws shift along with today’s increasingly digital world, so does the need for you to update your processes and procedures. The way you react can either propel you up the S Curve of Business or send you on a path to obsolescence.

Global Culture

The combination of geopolitical uncertainty paired with global economic growth can make it difficult to balance a global culture. This fast-paced change can add a layer of weight to your already burdened shoulders. Knowing how to lighten that load starts with understanding new ways to embrace a global culture and support uncharted worldwide expansions.

Business/Brand Risk

Even the slightest blip in the industry in which a business operates – whether internally (i.e. security breach) or externally (i.e. recession) – can result in immediate or multi-year disruptions.
