Planning your digital transformation from within and leveraging it within an ecosystem

The Challenge:
The telecommunications and digital services markets are moving faster than ever. It’s hard to figure out when is the right time to invest in a new technology and whether it’s the right path in line with the companies long term strategy, goals and vision. Senior managers and executives in service provider organizations need guidance to understand fast moving markets and start benefiting from the latest business models and technologies.
Successful digital transformations usually start from within and then the building blocks needed for an organization’s own transformation are leveraged by those with which they wish to build digital ecosystems. How can you give teams the knowledge to drive transformation and implement it with external parties such as SIs?
