Riassunto:

This textbook offers a unique combination of theory, practical applications and case studies on digital transformation strategies.

Digital transformation is the process of changing conventional business models enabled by digital technologies.

This textbook helps define transformation and digitalization and contrasts them with digitization and automation. The book also presents a comprehensive digital strategy framework and describes each of its elements through several examples and exhibits. It provides useful insights into industry-specific cases, suggests detailed templates for digital implementation, and describes the risks in execution of digitalization and potential mitigation strategies.
