Episode Notes

Spend Less, Do More, Move Ahead with IT Transformation

It’s easy to assume that investing in new technology will help your business get ahead of the competition. But there’s more to IT transformation than chasing the latest shiny object. According to Adam Demattia and John McKnight of the Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), IT transformation is a philosophy of ongoing adoption, evaluation, and adjustment. When businesses adopt the right philosophy, they tend to increase efficiency, lower costs, and innovate faster than the competition.

The ESG set out to quantify just how much of an advantage IT transformation gives businesses. They surveyed 4,000 organizations around the world to get hard data on how fast businesses are transforming, where challenges lie, and what should be your business’ next move. On this Luminaries episode, John and Adam present their often-surprising findings.
