Digital Disruption: Why Design Thinking Helps
Today, in many parts of the world, companies such as Grab, Uber and Go-Jek have become household names, allowing millions of customers to avail taxi services with better value.
Growing Through Intentional Conversations
In the current environment where technological advances are contributing to a mounting pressure to grow higher, further, and faster, growth requires not just knowledge but the wisdom to apply it. So when time is of the essence, how do you carry out intentional conversations – and how do you transform those into mentoring relationships?
Leveraging the Power of Digital Learning
In Malaysia and elsewhere, business leaders and organisations are crying out for people to have skills beyond the required minimum. Graduates might have the knowledge and practical skills for the job, but today’s world demands so much more from each of us.
Why Recruitment is Broken and How Trust Can Fix It
Trust plays a vital role in the success of these initiatives, providing a cornerstone for building strategic partnerships, establishing a reputation, embracing digital transformation, and more.
How The Most Productive People Avoid Digital Distractions
The research also found that we only spend 2.8 hours per day doing “productive” work. Given the average American works 47 hours per week, most of us spend less than a third of our working hours doing focused, impactful work.
Why Are Organisations Failing To Adapt To A Digital Future?
Our expectations have been set by the digital giants: Google, Alibaba, Amazon, Facebook etc. Anything that falls short of their benchmark-setting experience doesn’t quite pass muster. Failing to adapt can have dire consequences for an organisation. Kodak, Blockbuster and Borders are cases in point.
Why People Are The Key to Successful Digital Transformation
The characteristics of digital natives are clearly different from those of more mature organisations. Their ability to innovate and scale rapidly, generate new revenue streams, organise around small, self-directed teams and pivot with ease is a source of great envy. Add to this the threat of disintermediation and, it’s no surprise that digital transformation has been a hot topic in recent years.
The Leadership for Digital Transformation
An ardent practitioner of problem-solving methods such as Lean Six Sigma, one could confidently state that the lessons learnt in the process of solving a problem isn’t to think of a solution on the get-go but to give room to the discovery of a solution by vigorously following the problem-solving methodology such as DMAIC (Define-Measure-Analyse-Improve-Control).
Leading Digital Transformation
Today we are in the era where the world is in fact in the palm of our hands. Smartphones or mobile technologies have changed the way we live and disrupted various industries from agriculture to the plantation, manufacturing to supply chain, retail to travel, photography to video blogging, and many others.
Why Corporate Digital Transformation Sometimes Fails
Among the biggest assets of corporate digital transformation is the sheer volume and efficiency of data collection, as well as the ability for software to accurately spot trends and patterns that help with decision-making.
