We have been in the digital era for nearly two decades now. However, the sheer level of digitalization that we have witnessed over the past four to five years is phenomenal. This was further accelerated with the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.
There is no set definition of digital transformation, as its contours will vary with the unique conditions of each individual organization. However, one thing should be absolutely clear that it can now make the difference between your survival as a business or otherwise.
What is Digital Transformation?
Regardless of whether you are in the product or service industry, you are selling something at the end of the day. From start till the end delivery, there are countless processes. You need to leverage digital technologies to make these processes efficient and stable.
What you need to immediately realize as a business is that the world around you is digitalizing. So, if you remain aloof to this new reality and do not embark on this journey, you may soon find yourself at a clear competitive disadvantage.

Digitalization and Customer Experience
It is well said that your customer is the king. So, as a business, it is you that has to adapt to the very changing needs of your customers. Today, the customer has so much choice that you may soon find your customers switching to one of your competitors.
Digitalization enables you to deliver a personalized, enriched and superior customer experience. This will result in increased brand and customer loyalty, which will pay you huge dividends in the mid to long term.
Employee Experience and Digitalization
Your workforce or employees are also a key asset of your organization. Today’s employees also need digital technologies to perform their tasks efficiently and effectively. By digitalizing your processes, you will be able to deliver a superior employee experience.
This in turn will enhance your organization’s productivity and also go on to boost employee morale. By providing the right digital tools and aids to your workforce, you are in fact enabling them to perform to their utmost best.
An improved employee experience not only boosts employee productivity and morale, but also increases employee retention rates. In today’s day and age, it is becoming increasingly difficult to attract and retain the best human talent.
