DOYOU HAVETHE RIGHTTECHNOLOGYTO COMPETE?
TECHNOLOGY IMPACTING BUSINESS

15. If you are not disrupting,
you are being disrupted
§ Is IT agile enough to support disruptive business models?
15

16. Lessons from “Disrupt”
§ Complacency is dangerous. Complacency leaves no
room for innovation.
§ Incremental change is not enough. Incremental change
has a diminishing rate of return.
§ Businesses need an even number of disruptive ideas to
incremental ideas
§ Be the leader in disruptive change in your organization
§ Pay attention to irrelevant information
§ There is too much time spent on prediction and not
enough time spent on deliberate provocation
§ Disruption has to deliver value
