Description
"Digital Ambition: Three not-so-rhetorical questions for the Digital Strategist"
Featuring Rick Nordtvedt, Ph.D, MBA, Senior Executive Partner, Gartner
There are four kinds of businesses: digital businesses, those becoming digital businesses, those struggling to understand how to become digital businesses, and those who will not figure it out in time. Digital technologies, opportunities, and business models are developing at light speed; 64% of IT and marketing executives recently surveyed by Gartner say they expect to transform into a digital business by the end of 2017. What does digital mean and what types of digital approaches are prominent today? Where are you on your digital journey? What does the digital future look like? Leave this presentation with one digital question that you might find just a little frightening.
