A Guide to Thriving in a World of Continuous Transformation

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Digital transformation doesn't work, because it's rooted in 20th century management structures that no longer make sense. A better operating model for companies is one that allows for continuous, small-scale, autonomous transformations controlled locally throughout and organization, a living operating model that breaks with the past an creates a new way of managing an organization. This book shows you how to do it.

• Grounded in practical advice. This book does not describe a perfect end state, but instead inspires action that is meaningful and manageable. Thought starters, and questions help drive to action.
• Timeless. Not focused on any particular transformation (say, AI) but rather on the idea of it and how to manage whatever technology emerges that demands some kind of transformation.
• Realistic. Does not make process seem like magic, shares what to expect when going through this process.
• Succinct and snackable. Formatted around "anti-patterns" which are behaviors to identify and correct to become as very short vignettes allows reader to dip in and out of chapters based on current needs or to read end-to-end. It is intended to be concise while not skimping on context.
• Serious subjects made engaging, positive, and accessible. Story-telling and real-world context setting help make the "how" easier to accept and execute.
• Weasel word free. Throwaway phrases such as agile, digital transformation, and data-enabled are not used without being precise on what we mean by them.

Audience: Leaders, team leaders, change managers, managers, CTOs, COOs, operations managers, consultants, digital transformation experts.
