2. Digital is dead, long live digital
What is digital transformation?
It’s about removing digital
It’s about cultural change
It’s about process
It’s not about tech

5. Content is a cornerstone – are you setup?
24 percent of organizations now devote 50 percent or more of
their budget to content.
Is your structure setup?
Content requires resource and global content may require 24/7 regional
support
Is your brand setup?
But you need a consistent voice – consider your brand and writing style
together
Are your writers considering all angles?
Consider SEO

6. Experience is the differentiator
Experience is increasingly becoming the differentiator and is
where many start-ups are winning. Are you client centric?
Big data and micro data are both key to understanding
customers and creating a personalised experience. Is your data
strategy robust?
Human-centred design. ‘Best practise’ is irrelevant. Human
nature is what matters. Consider consumer psychology. Do you
understand this well enough?

8. Think and act
• A strategy without execution is just a thought
• Execution without a strategy is just chaos

9. The key questions for your transformation
• Do you have a digital voice on the leadership
team?
• Is digital embedded in all levels and areas of your
organisation?
• Are you setup to capitalise on technology trends
and to stay agile?
• Do you brand and content strategy have digital
expertise embedded?
• Do you have a robust data strategy?
• Do you understand consumer behaviour?
