The biggest roadblock in digital transformation is the culture and it’s a problem that’s worsening, no strategy is working at all. A report published by Capgemini “The Digital Culture Challenge” in 2018 states that In 2011, a majority of respondents (55%) said that culture was the number one hurdle to digital transformation but in their latest research, this figure has actually risen to 62%. This report is based on the survey of Capgemini Digital Transformation Institute, Digital Culture; March-April 2017.
Tons of other organizations have gathered research that supports it. Let’s look into another report from PwC. According to research by PwC, a whopping 75% of change initiatives will fail due to a lack of digital culture. Digital transformation, digital maturity, or digitization? No matter what term is used, digital is revolutionizing the way businesses operate and succeed. In fact, a third of key decision-makers according to Mckinsey state that culture is the most significant barrier to digital effectiveness followed by a lack of understanding of digital trends (25%).
