Over the past year, there has been repeated discussion of how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed people’s habits and their approach to work.

On the one hand, this highly disruptive event—in terms of the timing and the way it entered people’s lives—provided an opportunity to identify and develop new organizational solutions, while on the other hand, it presented an opportunity to strengthen the digital aspect of the organization.

However, although this view is now widely held even among organizational leaders, few organizations are fully succeeding in achieving their digital transformation goals.

The Boston Consulting Group's research

As research by the Boston Consulting Group also shows, 80% of companies and organizations say that digital adoption is a necessary strategic choice, yet only 30% say they have achieved their digital transformation goals.

According to BCG, the secret to success lies precisely in people—their aptitudes and soft skills —as well as in the path outlined within a digital journey:

“When implementing digital technologies, more than two-thirds of an initiative’s success depends on people and processes.”

What are the 3 key steps to accelerate digital transformation and change?

  1. Adapting to hybrid work models: In the near post-pandemic future, the phygital dimension will take center stage in the workplace. The hybrid model is here to stay, so now is the time to make it scalable, sustainable, and simple—without leaving anyone behind.
  2. Focus on the customer (that is, on people): aim for a business model that increasingly puts people—and their needs and desires—at the center. It is increasingly essential to focus on user preferences and behaviors in order to better understand them.
  3. "Learn-it-all" culture: Learning and training must be an integral part of the corporate culture. Only in this way will people learn to adapt to the new challenges of the New Ways of Working.
“In the new reality that is reshaping markets, industries, and customer interactions, accelerating digital transformation is vital to survival and success.”
