We are in finally in 2020, and it is an undeniable fact that digital transformation is has become the crux of any successful business. But, due to availability of sample content, thoughts, ideas, and innovations, most of the individuals and future leaders are have missed out on what digital transformation involves.
With the growth in the landscape of Digital technologies, companies have been chasing terms like ITSM modernization, digital transformation, Customer service management, employee experience to stay in symbiosis with their customers and stakeholders. But then what is ‘Digital Transformation’ at core and how should enterprises utilize these technology advancements.
Digital Transformation at its core is the complete revolution of business and organizational processes, operations, and experience to connect with their employees, clients and stakeholders on digital platforms. But, the perspective of approach for every company is different in terms of their vision and goal.
Like, Cognizant suggests: –
Digital Transformation is based on 3 major things:
- Digital Awareness

- Implementation & Operations
Accenture on the other hand has a concept where they want to redefine client processes
Digital Transformation challenges each company to rethink fundamental processes. It is based on digital capabilities, employee experiences, client teams, social, collaborations, talent & infrastructure
Dell EMC Perspective
Digital transformation is not just about a collection of products; it’s about giving your employees the power to perform like rock-stars from anywhere; growing confidence with a pro-active security strategy; and most of all, redefining how IT operates.
But, ServiceNow has a different perspective all together; where they want to make the world of work, work better for people (brand purpose) where they focus on utility, productivity, engagement and experience.
From all the above perspectives, we understand Digital transformation is not a goal but a journey towards the best customer and employee experience. This modernization journey has entirely changed the IT landscape and has made it dynamic that the complete power lies firmly in the hands of the relevancy of data and touch-points at the end of users.
