Speakers: Nikos Papadellis and Alex Fiddes
Globally, organisations realise that they need to change the way they work. Traditional practices, culture and operating models in this fast paced digital era often leave them too slow, wrong-footed by the competition, struggling to protect and grow revenue and hampered by legacy systems.
The opportunities, however, are often breath-taking. Customers demand innovation, improved experience and access to cutting-edge technologies.
Most organisations know they need to transform the way they work, avoiding the problems and embracing the possibilities. Doing so is not always easy…
• 70% of existing digital business initiatives fail due to lack of skills, capability and know-how
• 45% of the C-suite in Fortune/FTSE organisations claim barrier to success due to lack of modern thinking and practice inside the company
• Global IT spend in consulting over next 5 years forecasted to increase up to 10% due to outside expertise needed for highly specialised skills
• Investment in employee education and training has now reached over 5% of total corporate budget to keep up with technology and skills demand
• Digital business revenue will double to 40% within 5 years
