Time for Lean IT?
Time to review your strategy around digital transformation? How about Lean Teams & IT?
Digital Transformation was one of the buzzwords and still is for most organizations, while only a few of them have actually seen the successful journey of a digital transformation, while most of them still continue to stare!
It is the CEO & Board, who would want to gear up the organization with digital tools & technologies that would let them take the organization to the next level, get onboard a IT leader, who would devise the strategy and lead the organization through the Digital Transformation. It was time that CIO made promises to secure the requisite budget that would be utilized to transform the organization digitally!.
With an Digital Transformation team being onboard and all set to get started with SPRINTS, very few of these SPRINTS end up being successful and delivering value to the organization. While most of the organizations get started, very few of these successfully reach the shore and announce that their investments made are successful, ensuring they continue to have skin in the game.

AGILE! SCRUM! PRODUCT TEAMS!
These are not just buzzwords, when practiced, have delivered the best results to most of the organizations, however, if you are still starring the investment that has gone in and no quantifiable ROI, its time to introspect!
LEAN IT! Outsourcing vs In-house! Globalization vs Localization!
It is time to rethink on the strategy of outsourcing and build high performing internal teams, who would better innovate and deliver value. Being part of the team who have led global Fortune 100 companies through the digital transformation, heir leadership styles, empowers you with the learning and experiences are that shape the leader within you. The challenges that we faced over the last few years, equip you with the skill set that could add and deliver value to organizations.
It was quite a learning that has helped me devise a framework that would provide a good fit in current circumstances. Would be delighted to receive your feedback, get connected, discuss & consult on the Lean Framework for IT.
DIGITAL isn't magic! It requires hard work to change the culture of the organization!
Kindly share your feedback and thoughts.
