4. IF YOU THINK BEING 'IN E-BUSINESS' MEANS SUTURING ON AN
E-COMMERCE APPENDAGE TO YOUR BODY CORPORATE,

RIPPLE THROUGH AND SHAKE UP THAT BODY CORPORATE. AND LIKE AN 8.0
EARTHQUAKE, YOU MUST BE PREPARED FOR THE REARRANGEMENT THAT
WILL INEVITABLY OCCUR.
Keyur Patel & Mary Mccarthy | Digital Transformation, 2000
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IS ABOUT FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE

5. DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION REFERS TO THE CHANGES ASSOCIATED WITH THE
APPLICATION OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY IN ALL ASPECTS OF HUMAN SOCIETY.
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION MAY BE THOUGHT AS THE THIRD STAGE OF EMBRACING
DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES:
DIGITAL COMPETENCE -> DIGITAL LITERACY -> DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION.

‘By strapping a receiving computer to the side of it, the internet
fridge brings the internet to the device. By connecting transmitting
sensors to the network, the internet of things brings the device to
the internet.’

OBSOLETE.
THE STUGGLES WE SEE TODAY IN MANY BUSINESSES, ARE EXAMPLES OF THE
DRAMATIC SHIFT FOR SOCIETY THAT LIES AHEAD.
AND WE’VE BARELY LEFT THE STARTING BLOCKS.
