Organizational Transformation

“The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday’s logic.”

– Peter Drucker, Author and Management Consultant

Organizational Transformations are radical organizational changes, enabled by digital technologies. Despite knowing the disruption organizational transformations cause, companies often set out on this journey without thinking the process through. Organizational change is not just about technology. It’s about revamping your organization as a complete entity.

There are two things to contemplate while considering an Organizational Transformation as the right route for your company.

• How to bring about an effective Organizational Transformation
• The framework and methodologies needed for the digital transformation involved

Tips to Get the Organizational Transformation Right

• Set Expectations – Communicate with employees and let them know what to expect in the coming future.
• Profile the audience – Create personas of the individuals that will be affected by the changes you’re about to make so that you can address individual needs. Revisit and review these personas as changes develop.
• Ensure Involvement across the spectrum – Involve employees in the process of figuring out where and why change is needed.

In the digital age, Organizational Transformation and Digital Transformation go hand in hand. Because of the constant flux of new technologies, Agile methodologies for the implementation of Digital Transformation are increasing in popularity. The transformations made this way, can endure adjustments and the constant evolution needed to adapt to ever-changing organizational requirements.

A successful organizational transformation must address all relevant organizational dimensions: Culture & Mindset, Service Offering, Policies, hierarchies, processes and procedures, and technology. About 85% of transformation initiatives fail because of their extreme focus on technology.
