Digital Transformation

Often Digital Transformation is regarded as a one-off project. Unfortunately, that is also what it looks like when an organization has an it-landscape with several hundred unintegrated systems and no data management.

However, the truth is that the world is now digital-first, and you need continuous Digital Transformations to remain competitive - or relevant even.

Digital transformation are one of the key disruption trends and means to retaining customers and to gain competitive advantages, but most of them fail.

According to McKinsey, 70 percent of complex, large-scale change programs don’t reach their stated goals.

So what are some common mistakes to avoid? What competencies do you need, and what hard truths should you understand before spending millions on Digital Transformation?

"Unfortunately, Digital Transformation quite often fails. But organizations can do many things BEFORE rushing into projects without the proper preparation."

Talks

I aim to inspire and I enjoy giving thought-provoking talks about Digital Transformation.

I mainly give talks about the pre-stages of Digital Transformation when organizations plan to change their digital capabilities. What needs to be in place before starting a Digital Transformation project? What can we do to prevent failure before beginning the project?

I can give Danish and English talks and have extensive experience delivering virtual presentations. I tailor my presentation to your context.

For my talks in Denmark, I use Kristian Stoffregen on youandx. I offer a talk on: "What comes before Digital Transformation and Digitization". I also offer a full day workshop more specifically targeted for top and middle managers "What comes before YOUR Digital Transformation?. For international arrangements contact me directly (see below).

Background

I am 50 years old and have worked with computers since I was 6. So you could say that I am a first-generation digital native.

I started my personal digital journey at age 6 with the Commodore-64.

I have worked at large companies such as The Danish Broadcasting Corporation, Microsoft, Danfoss, PwC, and CGI. Today, I work as a Business and IT architect.

I hold a business Ph.D. from Copenhagen Business School and have been a visiting scholar at Stanford, and I am a former associate professor. For more details see: linkedin.com/in/kristian-stoffregen

Fun Fact: I'm a cyborg. 'Cyborg' is a blend of the words cybernetic and organism. It refers to beings with both organic and biomechatronic body parts.

I lost the hearing in my right ear long ago in a scuba diving accident. So now I got a bone-anchored hearing aid - a bone conduction implant system.

I currently use Oticon's Ponto 5 mounted on a titanium implant drilled into my skull. It has changed my life for the better, but I don't get stereo ;-)
